What famous movie character(s) would make great wrestlers?
 

I'm not sure if this goes in the wrestling forum or movies/tv forum but who cares.

Anyways, what movie character(s) do see could be great wrestlers. I'm talking about character and personality.

One character that comes to mind is Appollo Creed (Carl Weathers) from Rocky. He has the mic work, the charisma, and personality which IMO makes an entertaining wrestler. He could be a great heel.

What other movie character(s) can you think of?

Riddick from "Pitch Black." Deadly. Cool. But his character is very silent, so I'd have Chris Tucker's character from 5th Element be his manager.

Another character that comes to mind is Mickey O'Neil (Brad Pitt) from Snatch

Jason Voorhees vs. Kane :drool:

Robocop.

What?

Fine. How about Richard Roundtree's John Shaft. (I tried to imagine the Samuel L. Jackson Shaft, but for some reason he doesn't come off as a wrestler. On the other hand, Roundtree does.)

Huggy Bear (Not Snoop Dogg)
Mike Lowery (Will Smith in Bad Boys)
Warren (Theres something about Mary)
James Carter (Chris Tucker in Rush Hour)
The guy Adam Sandler played in Airheads
New Womens Champ (Angelina Jolie) Lara Croft
Samuel L Jackson (51st State)

Bruce Willis from Die Hard as a face, every match he would get the crap kicked outta him for like 25mins then through sheer luck he'd fluke a win (wouldn't cheat either), would be a terrible character but the WWE marks'd love him
other than that gotta have Snipes as Blade

I think the best Wesley Snipes Carachter in this instance would eb the one from White men Can't Jump. He's Cocky and brash, but also very clever.

thats a good point, but I was thinking if he used the Blade character he would have the Kung-Fu background allowing JR or King to use the "educated feet" line :lol:

Good ones :y:

Mel Gibsons 'Lethal Weapon' character.
Him and Danny Glover could make a tag team similar to Jamie Noble and Farooq.
Emm...maybe not!
Anyway, Mel Gibson - martial arts, wisecracks, psycho attitude. The complete package!

I also reckon Steven Seagal (any movie) in the Royal Rumble would be wicked.
He's just be tossing everyone's ass out the ring, without ever moving his feet!

Punisher
The Saints as a tag team
Snake Pliscan
the revolting blob from Billy Madison

CHEWBACCA!!!!!!!!!!
He'd be massive, hairier than A-Train, a face, no-one would understand his promo's but they'd be cool anyway, and he could kick ass and roar at the same time!

Thunderlips from Rockey 3

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh SPIDERMAN (sorry rey rey)

Samuel L. Jackson's "Julius" and John Travolta's character(I forget the name) from Pulp Fiction.

Neo...from The Matrix of course.

Mickey O'Neil from Snatch as someone said earlier.

Alonzo Harris from Training Day.

The Scorpion King. :cool:

Vinnie Vega

Wow. There's already a built-in feud there as Macho Man jobbed to Spidey in less than 2 mintues. :)

Tin-Tin from The Crow

Tell me you don't want to hear Jericho or someone like that say to someone "You cheap-ass, chrome-dome, child molesting saprophyte motherfu</>cker"

That guy from Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome who refuses to die. The bald guy with the manequin head strapped to his back. No idea what his name is .

Damn, looking on this thread it seems movie villains make the best characters.

Well it's not famous, but if anyone has seen Steven King's "Storm of the Century," the character of Linoge would make a great evil character in wrestling.

Robocop.

*guy runs in from offstage and whispers*

Sh</>it, I've just been informed that someone said that already.


Yeah but didn't he die in Rocky 4?

Besides some of the ones already said

Leon from "Leon/ The Professional"

Tyler Durden "Fight Club"

Kakihara from "Ichi the Killer"

Jules Winfield and Vincent Vega

Sanka Koffe from Cool Runnings lol pure comedy value right here

The Villian from Bloodsport (Bolo Yeung?)
Zeus from No Holds Barred :shifty:
The Russian from "The Punisher"
Harry Heck from "The Punisher" (who learned that someone who brings a knife to a gunfight CAN win the fight)

Forrest Gump

The Hansons (Slap Shot)

Edward Scissorhands

Tatoo (Fantasy Island)

Jaws (from the James Bond movies)

Tony Montana (Scarface)

Kathy Bates (Misery)

Eh? Maybe as a manager, but I don't know how well he'd be able to move around the ring in that wheelchair.

Fu</>ck that, they should get the shark instead. :shifty:

How about that bleach blonde haired guy in the Where's Waldo shirt who got knocked through the wall from The Punisher? That guy is pretty big and has a good look for a wrestler. Of course, I could be wrong. He could tear his quad from stepping into the ring for all I know.

Mack from Super Troopers, he was the f'ing man. He fricken wrestled a hog and then proceeded to beat the crap out of most of the cops.

Gary Coleman


.................and that dude who was "Super Shredder" in the hit movie "Ninja turtles II: The secret of the ooze". :shifty:

Mel Gibson's character from Payback. He took out a whole carload of kung fu dudes with one blow...


Fat Bastard v. Rikishi... :shifty:

Freddy Krueger vs. Mankind in a boiler room brawl.

Nah, some annoying teenagers would win that one, they always do
