Wrestling legend names top WWE stars who could join The Rock in the company's movie franchise (Exclusive)

Former WWE head writer Vince Russo spoke about the company having its movie franchise led by The Rock. He felt the company had the star power to create a powerful franchise and deliver some blockbuster hits.

Several WWE stars have successfully transcended into roles in Hollywood. While The Rock is one of the biggest names in the movie business, other stars such as Batista and John Cena have become part of highly successful projects.

During the latest episode of The Wrestling Outlaws, Vince Russo detailed that WWE could have The Rock, Roman Reigns, Damian Priest, and Batista star in action roles in a major movie.

The former writer felt the film could become a huge franchise for the company for several years, fetching them a huge sum of money.

"You talk about having their own franchise. Think about taking The Rock, Roman Reigns, Damian Priest, and Dave Bautista and letting them like be a vigilante gang or whatever you want. The four of those guys, my God, they could have a franchise for the next 20 freaking years." [From 6:24 onwards]
