#1 Hugh Jackman

Hugh Jackman punches Dolph Ziggler

The X-Men star has made multiple appearances at the WWE, and they have all been appreciated warmly by the pro wrestling crowd, who are not always keen on celebrities taking the spotlight away from wrestlers.

But Jackman, a self-confessed wrestling fan, has the physique to go with his Hollywood status and let us be honest, it is not every day that the fans get to see a top notch movie star.

So it was hardly surprising when Jackman was cheered to the skies in 2011 when he made a Raw appearance getting in Dolph Ziggler’s match and punching him later in the night during his match with Zack Ryder.

He would make another appearance in the WWE three years later in a comedy segment with Damien Sandow – who had dressed up as Magneto – and a now face Ziggler.
