Episode 25 - Body Slams to Box Office: When Wrestlers Become Movie Stars

from Post Credits Lounge · host Andre Joseph

Step into the ring and roll camera as André and Marcos tag-team one of pop culture’s most fascinating crossovers—wrestlers turned movie actors. From the undeniable dominance of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to the surprising dramatic chops of Dave Bautista, the duo breaks down which wrestling legends made the leap to Hollywood stardom and which ones fell flat off the top rope. They’ll spotlight cult classics (They Live), box office bombs (Mr. Nanny), and those unexpected hidden gems. Plus, they dive into fan-favorites like Sting, Ultimate Warrior, and Kurt Angle to ask: Did these icons have real cinematic potential? Or were they better off sticking to the squared circle? Grab your popcorn and folding chair—this is one showdown you won’t want to miss.
