5 top WWE superstars who have never appeared in a movie
Being a WWE superstar seems to go hand in hand with being a movie star these days. Well, maybe not a movie star, but acting in films in some capacity, anyway. Ever since Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson broke barriers to become the top actor in Hollywood, more and more superstars have been trying their hand at films.
This has been further enhanced by the fact that the WWE now owns a production house of its own where it produces movies for current WWE superstars to star in. The likes of John Cena, Randy Orton, and The Miz have all taken advantage of this fact to become leading men on the silver screen.
You can hardly blame professional wrestlers who decide to dabble in the world of movies. After all, the money there is significantly better, and it allows you the opportunity to attract mainstream fans like what Batista managed to do with Guardians of the Galaxy. But, not all superstars share this ambition.
There are some top stars from the WWE who have steadfastly refused the advances of Hollywood and the big screen to concentrate on their work inside the squared circle. In fact, they haven’t even made cameo appearances. Today, we explore these people.
So, without any further ado, here are 5 top WWE superstars who have never appeared in a movie:
#5 Lita
We start off the list with one of the top women wrestlers to have ever graced the WWE – Lita. While her long time in-ring rival and real life best friend, Trish Stratus, used her WWE fame to grab a number of roles in the movie industry, the redhaired WWE legend never followed suit.
She was more than happy to make a name for herself as one of the finest wrestlers in the world and even after retirement, she decided to return to the WWE in some capacity or another, mostly as an analyst for preshows of WWE pay per views.
The WWE Hall of Famer was never one for the mainstream spotlight, and her actions are quite commendable when you consider the fact that she’s a beautiful woman who would have had no shortage of Hollywood suitors trying to cash in on her popularity within the wrestling industry.
