Professional wrestling has produced some of the biggest names in Hollywood, but not every WWE superstar has been able to successfully transition from the ring to the screen.
Despite being huge names in the world of sports entertainment, certain superstars have faced difficulties establishing themselves in the acting industry.
Let's take a look at the top five popular WWE superstars who failed miserably after transitioning to Hollywood.
Kurt Angle Despite having an amateur background and a remarkable physique, Kurt Angle's movies such as "Warrior," "Pain & Gain," and "Wrestlers vs. Zombies" were not successful.
Goldberg Goldberg was one of the biggest stars in WCW but was unsuccessful in the film industry. He had minor roles in The Longest Yard and Universal Soldier, but didn't lead to anything substantial.
Triple H Triple H had limited film roles, but his performance in Blade: Trinity and comedic role in The Chaperone proved his screen presence. However, his acting didn't improve the mediocre films.
