Then there are these rare occasions where WWE presents us with sports personalities who look comfortable in the professional wrestling arena.And when WWE gives them a storyline platform to shine, it ends up being a memorable outing as well. Over the years, a handful of famous sports personalities have been part of WWE storylines and this list is going to take a look at the top ones from the lot. 

#6 Honorable Mention: Ronda Rousey

Dwayne Johnson and Ronda Rousey

Ronda Rousey is perfect when it comes to being in WWE. She is a lifelong fan and the things she has achieved in UFC are second to none. Ronda got a taste of how it is like to be at the biggest stage in wrestling when she showed up at WrestleMania 30.

She taught Triple H a lesson and unfortunately WWE wasn’t able to follow up the storyline. If they had, Ronda would have been higher up on the list.
