As per Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch and former Universal Champion Roman Reigns have been approached for roles in movies/shows. Talking about the kind of offers that have been extended to both these Superstars, Meltzer noted,

Becky Lynch is reportedly set to feature on a women's magazine soon, while Hollywood is also keen to cast her in a few roles, thanks to her popularity and on-screen charisma. She is set to appear on the Billions TV series, where she has a small cameo appearance.

Roman Reigns, meanwhile, will be a part of a movie that will be released later this month called The Wrong Missy. Reigns has acted in a few movies, having last featured alongside The Rock in the Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw movie last year
