Ranking the Top WWE Superstars in Hollywood

#4 John Cena

Yes, we all know John Cena as the heart and soul of WWE, at least in the current era. However, he has recently forayed away from the ring, gradually becoming a part-timer, making way for younger WWE talent. His time away from WWE parallelly corresponds to his rise in acclaim as an A-List Hollywood superstar. One wonders if he will ever return to WWE in a full-time role once again.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Cena’s initial WWE roles were all for WWE Studios. He began with The Marine franchise, later acting in 12 Rounds and Legendary. Yet, it is in recent times that Cena has really found his footing and established himself as a force in the movie business.

It is movies like Ferdinand and Blockers that have taken him to super stardom in recent times. Cena will also be a part of Bumblebee, a Transformers spin off project.

Today, you can’t see him in WWE, more often than not, because of his alternative career in Hollywood.
