The power-chord tikes are to perform the theme to Wrestlemania XXV in April, and Brian Johnson is getting in the ring with The Undertaker. Part of that isn’t true…

AC/DC will perform the theme to Wrestlemania XXV on April 5 at the Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas

Wrestling-Edge.com reports that Linda McMahon, Chief Exec of WWE Inc, made the announcement during a recent appearance at the 36th annual Global Media and Communications Conference.

Linda’s husband and WWE Chairman, Vince McMahon, is said to be a huge fan of AC/DC, and first met them when ‘The Rock’ hosted Saturday Night Live in 2000.
