Another Role: Former WWE Champion Set For Role In Upcoming Film

It’s a gig. Wrestlers have tried their hands at acting for decades with limited success. Some wrestlers have been able to put together a secondary career in the acting world but most of the time it is limited at best. That has not stopped the wrestlers from trying though and now another former WWE Champion will be trying his hand at acting now that his wrestling career is on hold.

Deadline has announced that former WWE Champion Big E. (real name Ettore Ewen) will be appearing in the upcoming family comedy “F Plus”. The film will also star former MMA star Randy Couture, Tommy Davidson and Jennifer Esposito and is written by Jonathan Davenport, who makes WWE wrestling gear. The comedy is about a group of students who try to break into their school to change their grades. It is not clear what roll Big E. will play and no release date has been announced. Big E.’s wrestling career is currently on hold due to a broken neck.

He had another career. Check out what Big E. can do in the ring:

Opinion: I’m not sure how well this will go for Big E. but good for him for landing a role like this. With the future of his wrestling career unclear, it is great to see him having something like this to do instead. He certainly has the charisma to make a run at an acting career, so why not see if he can make a run at it? The fact that he can walk around after his injury is good enough news so hopefully this works out as well.

How will Big E. do as an actor? Which WWE star would make a good actor/actress? Let us know in the comments below.
