While the world of sports entertainment is restricted to in-ring action, the Superstars of WWE have regularly broken the barriers and tried their hands at various other entertainment fields in which they’ve had remarkable success.
Lillian Garcia and Mickie James have been successful in the music industry, while Elias and Sasha Banks are currently pushing their luck in the same field.
However, it’s Hollywood where the stars of WWE have shined the brightest, and several notable Superstars have made the switch to acting either part-time or full-time. Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson was arguably the first man to make the transition, one that made him one of the highest-paid actors of all time.
John Cena, Batista, The Miz, and ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin followed suit and have had their fair share of success. With WWE leading a movie production business, and several other Superstars constantly getting movie offers, there are several men and women who can become the next big thing in Hollywood, just like The Rock and Cena.
With The Big show coming out with The Big Show Show on Netflix recently, we will look at the 10 current Superstars who could make it big in Hollywood someday.
#10 Sasha Banks
Sasha Banks has proven to be an outstanding all-round performer in the ring, and she has also had some time to record a music album recently.
Banks is the first cousin of rapper Snoop Dogg, who helped develop her in-ring persona. This allowed her to get some noticed even more when she first arrived in WWE, and she seems to have all the right contacts in the entertainment business.
We haven’t seen much of Banks outside WWE as she hasn’t had any movies or television show appearances that could have helped her get a major contract.
However, Banks is one of WWE’s biggest Superstars, and it’s only a matter of time before someone from Hollywood decides to cast her in a movie, especially with SmackDown airing on FOX now.
Banks has always been a big name in WWE, and the Superstar has the looks and the charisma to pull off any character to perfection. Along with that, her fashion sense is one that the fans love to follow, and that could result in her landing a major movie contract down the line.
#9 Big E
Big E is not just one of the strongest men in WWE today, but he is by far one of the most fan-favorite Superstars out there. His presence on social media is loved by all, and the comical genius has made a name for himself since he’s partnered with Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston to form The New Day.
Big E is a larger than life character who has put a smile on the faces of fans with his bizarre antics, and this has shown that the man has everything required to make the next biggest comic actor.
The Superstar has had some guest roles and appearances on television shows where he’s been incredibly funny, while he’s lent his voice on Lazor Wulf, an American animated television series.
With all that under his belt, we could see Big E find some fame outside WWE as his faction The New Day is one of the biggest in the history of WWE. And, his work could land him a big contract for some comic movie that could turn his fortunes around.
#8 Kevin Owens
Another character in WWE who has a great social media presence and has proven to be great in the ring and on the mic is Kevin Owens.
The Prizefighter is one of WWE’s most valuable assets, and even though he’s a big family man, he could turn out to be a great actor and Hollywood star.
Owens has cut some of the greatest promos in WWE over the past five years, and his character as a babyface and a comic has been outstanding.
Just like Big E, KO has it in him to be a great star and do everything required to get the crowd involved in what’s going on.
These above-mentioned characteristics, along with his average Joe persona and look, could help him become a big star in Hollywood, as he clicks with a majority of the people who believe he is just like thems, but watch him do the impossible on a weekly basis.
Just like The Big Show Show has been prepared based on Big Show’s character as a family man and his life, we could watch Netflix or some other outlets do a show on KO which could end up being his ticket to Hollywood stardom.
#7 Alexa Bliss
WWE’s pint-sized Superstar who has been a sweetheart to the WWE Universe is Alexa Bliss. The multi-time WWE Champion has a great in-ring character and she sells wrestling moves to perfection.
Her character is one that works great both as a heel and as a babyface, and we’ve even seen her play the damsel in distress in the ring a few times. The Superstar has starred in a few episodes of Total Divas and shown that she is intense whenever she is in her zone.
Bliss is one of the finest female Superstars in the company, and she can prove to be a great prospect for a movie if WWE uses her as a damsel in distress in one of their future productions. WWE’s own movies have given stars such as John Cena and The Miz the initial boost, and Bliss could get the same down the line.
We can see that she can act well, and a chance on the silver screen could help her become the next biggest wrestler-turned-movie star as she has everything required to make the perfect actress.
#6 Seth Rollins
WWE’s leading man Seth Rollins is another great actor behind the camera. We can safely say this as we’ve seen him play several different characters on screen and pull each one off with intensity and perfection.
The former Universal Champion is one of the most beloved Superstars in all of the wrestling industry and has a huge fan following behind him.
We’ve seen him play cameos and short roles in Sharknado: The 4th Awakens, Armed Response, and Like a Boss. Now it’s time that the company takes more interest in using him on other fronts to bring more attention to WWE while allowing him to become a bigger star.
Rollins has everything required to make a great movie hero and even a superhero if the role is right.
Just like Roman Reigns got his opportunity in the Fast & Furious franchise, Rollins could get such an opportunity too and work his way up from there. Rollins has much more character and charisma that a lot of other WWE Superstars and that could help him succeed in Hollywood and become a breakout star someday.
#5 John Morrison
The Shaman of Sexy returned to WWE earlier this year and has cooked up a storm along with The Miz. The Superstar, known as one of the finest to have entered the ring, has a character that is filled with glitz and glam. His initial stint in the company as part of MNM saw him presenting himself as an arrogant wrestler with "elite Hollywood status".
Since then, the Superstar has starred in several television shows such as GLOW and The Miz & Mrs, in addition to some movies.
John Morrison is one of the top Superstars in WWE and one who can bring a lot of eyeballs to the product while doing something different. We’ve seen WWE give chances to Edge and Randy Orton in their home-produced movies, and they could do something similar with Morrison.
The difference will be that The Shaman of Sexy could do a better job and become a more successful movie star as he has the character and charisma to pull such a thing off. And, this could help him achieve stardom in Hollywood.
#4 Braun Strowman
Whatever Big Show can do, Braun Strowman can do better.
WWE’s newest monster Braun Strowman is unlike any other monster the WWE Universe has seen before. Massive in both size and talent, the Superstar has much more character than what WWE’s previous giants had. Along with that, he has decent mic skills and has proven numerous times that he can do comic acts well and build on storylines.
Strowman finally won his first big title in the company at WrestleMania 36, and this could be his ticket to the top of the company.
WWE fans, both old and young, love the Monster Among Men who has quite a big fan following. Strowman had a cameo in Holmes & Watson in 2018, and the Superstar could bag a few more small roles before getting a big one in Hollywood.
Just like Batista, the muscular Superstar could turn out to be a great supporting actor in superhero movies, and we could watch him play a superhero character all by himself in one of Marvel's flicks.
Since Strowman is a giant who can do much more than lift heavy things, he could turn out to be a prospect for the silver screen industry, which is actively looking for real-life heroes for the younger crowd.
#3 Finn Balor
If there is one man in WWE who looks like a real-life hero, it is Finn Balor. The Superstar is literally built like a superhero, and he has the looks to play any role he likes and is stilled adored by the audiences.
The Irishman is a former Universal Champion, the inaugural one, and has played various characters and gimmicks to perfection in WWE. His Demon King character is still one of the best gimmicks that we’ve watched in the company.
The Prince likes to keep his personal life outside the company under wraps. Balor has always ensured that his life away from the camera never comes under scrutiny and he maintains a low profile.
That doesn’t mean that he wouldn’t have have been considered for a role by a Hollywood casting director, and we could see him bag a role in a WWE production or some other production company's film sooner than later.
Balor has what it takes to pull in the viewers, and he has proven that with his move back to NXT. The ripped Superstar is one of the most handsome men in the business.
If Balor does get a shot at Hollywood someday, he could turn out to become a big star like The Rock, John Cena, and Batista.
#2 Ronda Rousey
MMA-fighter-turned-WWE-Superstar Ronda Rousey is one of the biggest names in the sports entertainment industry. The lethal striker is known as The Baddest Woman on the Planet as she can tear through her opponent without breaking a sweat.
Her first run in WWE saw her become the RAW Women’s Champion quite easily, and fans have been waiting for her to return to the ring ever since she lost the title at WrestleMania 35.
Out of MMA and WWE, Rousey has a huge fan following and her loyal fans want her to do much more with her career and life. She has taken to the silver screen and starred in movies such as The Expendables 3, Furious 7, and Charlie’s Angel. Apart from that, she has also made appearances in television shows.
But that’s not all as Rousey is still one of the most wanted Superstars all around the world, and we could see her get a more substantial role in a movie sooner than later.
Just like The Rock and John Cena, her fans will always back her and help her to make it big in Hollywood if she decides to extend her acting portfolio in the coming years.
#1 Becky Lynch
Speaking of Ronda Rousey, one cannot forget the impact Becky Lynch’s rise had on the MMA-fighter-turned-wrestler’s career. The Man was beginning to rise right when Rousey won the RAW Women’s Championship, and her rise saw her outdo the biggest name in the industry at WrestleMania 35.
Since then, Lynch has been the biggest name in the world of wrestling and has completely turned her character and fortunes around.
In 2013, Lynch was the stunt double on The Vikings, but by 2018, she had a starring role in The Marine 6: Close Quarters. If the Superstar decides to do a few more films, we will see directors run to her and try to cash in on her name.
The Man is currently a star player in WWE, and she could do be a good option for a starring role in a movie. The Superstar has the looks, character, and confidence to pull off any major role with ease and aim for stardom in yet another field.
