3 great and 3 terrible movies featuring WWE Superstars
Professional wrestlers have been making the crossover from wrestling to Hollywood films for decades. They usually have their best results when actually in a wrestling ring, but when they venture off to other projects, it is usually a hit or miss.
Wrestling has been the center of some great movies. This includes the Oscar-winning "The Wrestler" and Beyond The Mat. However, not every wrestling film can be as critically acclaimed
Many wrestlers opt to make movies, and here is a look at some of the best and worst movies starring pro wrestlers.
#3 Great: Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Condemned
Out of all the WWE Films that were released, the Condemned features one of the best superstars from the WWE and an excellent plot.
Ten people on death row are sent to an island for a reality show where they all must kill each other until one remains to stand and break free from his or her sentence.
You know that Stone Cold Steve Austin is obviously going to survive, but it is still very enjoyable watching the different unique deaths that go on throughout the film.
As the Marine, there are plenty of laughs too, and the premise is great.
Terrible: Hulk Hogan, No Holds Barred
The sacred cow of bad wrestling movies.
When you think of a bad wrestling movie, you immediately think of "No Holds Barred". Of course, this isn't the worst wrestling movie, but its pretty damn bad.
Starring the massively popular Hulk Hogan and Tiny "Zeus" Lister, the movie is a full-blown 80s cheese machine.
Vince McMahon even parlayed the movie into a wrestling feud, which translated into millions and millions of dollars. Okay, no it didn't. The feud did just as well as the movie.
