Penn defeats Rourke for Oscar

Chris Jericho may have even more reason to badmouth and trash talk actor Mickey Rourke on Monday Night Raw. The actor failed to win the Oscar award for "The Wrestler" despite his impressive performance in a movie and role that has been praised by critics and pro wrestlers, including Rowdy Roddy Piper and Ric Flair. Sean Penn collected the statue, his second Oscar actor win, for his role in the movie "Milk" as Harvey Milk, the first gay elected official who was later assasinated.

During his speech Penn gave a nod to his fellow nominees including Rourke saying "despite a sensitivity that brings enormous challenges, Mickey Rourke rises again, and he is my brother". Rourke's fellow movie nominee Marisa Tomei also failed in her quest to win an Oscar for Best Supporting actress in "The Wrestler" as the award went to Penelope Cruz for "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" earlier in the night.
