I was really surprised by who this guy put at #1, but it makes a lot of sense from a financial standpoint. I think he might have to revise The Miz's entry considering The Marine 4, but then again we'll see when it comes out.

I actually quite enjoyed two of Cena's films.

The Marine and Legendary.

I actually found the Marine 3 to be a decent lazy Saturday morning movie. Miz was perfectly serviceable in it.

Clearly they are talking about if a dude's movies are profitable, not watchable.

Seems to me WWE Studios is just a black hole for money, but WWE already seems to have come to that realization a bit.

It seemed like WWE Studios was getting it's act together with the release of The Call and No One Lives.. both moderately successful but profitable films.. but then you see this story http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ji...eth-century-fox-home-entertainment-2014-02-11 and think what the fuck are they thinking.

Hogan #1? That's impossible, brother.

A studio would be wise to snap Orton up, could have a very profitable movie career.

I've found it mildly ironic that, outside of a couple of guys historically, there's not a lot of successful actors who came from pro wrestling. It's just true that the same kind of charisma that is perfect for a movie camera is not necessarily the same charisma that comes through in live performances. If it were, HHH and Cena, along with the Rock, would be movie stars.

Having said that, I did enjoy Adam Copeland (that's what he wants to be called now) has done very well on his Syfy Channel show. Gives me hope maybe Christian has a future in television as well.
