The Rock starring as 'Hercules' in upcoming movie

He could have used that body to wrestle for another 7 years but noooooooo

To be fair, wouldn't you? The money he makes in Hollywood is easily better than what he could make in wrestling, he doesn't have to travel the house show circuit and he runs little to no risk of injuring himself.

It is Lautner, not Laughtner. Get it right and show some respect.

Fuck Castiel. I got the spelling from him. Didn't realize. I apologize to Mr. Lautner and yourself.

If you don't like Kevin Sorbo, you're queer... :shifty:

Not really. I actually have a passion for the wrestling business. If I had the opportunity to perform, I'd never want to leave it.

I'd be like Flair or Funk. Hulk Hogan even.

You say that without first hand knowledge though. I think a lot of guys would be happy to leave the business they "love" behind for the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. The allure of all that money is too hard to pass up and to be honest, life is all about money. Very few people get to live their passion AND profit from it to the level they want.

Maybe some of them would, but I'm talking about myself which to whom the question was directed (RKO actually but still...). I know for a fact I'd rather be wrestling. Also plenty of wrestlers have been given the oppurtunity to leave wrestling for movies but most of them stick to what they love. Or they do both, it's possible. At the end of the day, I don't really care, I was never a big "Rock" fan to begin with.

Me neither, he's actually one of my least favourite wrestlers of all time.

It's hard to argue that most wrestlers stick with what they love though, because most of them also happen to suck in movies. I'm 100% positive Hogan would only be doing movies if anyone wanted him to, but they don't, so he returns to wrestling over and over again. One of the few guys I could see not doing that is Cena. Whether you hate him or not, you cannot deny his passion for the business and respect him for that.
