9. Triple H
Prominent works: Blade: Trinity, The Chaperone Triple H has never had the reputation of being- in Steve Austin's way of putting it- a good promo. Perhaps unfairly judged by his association in feuds with better mic workers, such as Austin and Rock, later Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels and more recently CM Punk and Paul Heyman, Triple H isn't really regarded as one of WWE's better talkers. Nor so one of the more charismatic. If anything, his recent run in The Authority has done more for his cred as an orator than any other run he's had in his career to date. That said, comparing Triple H's mic skills to that of a Brock Lesnar, for example, is one thing. Comparing his acting talent to that of a leading man in Hollywood, is quite another. People would have been forgiven then for quaking in their boots at the thought of Hunter as a leading star behind the camera. It would have been understandable for folks to instantly assume a film with Triple H as a prominent character would be a dire one, it would seem natural, I would understand. The truth to that is, though... that you'd be exactly right. Hunter's appearance opposite of Wesley Snipes in the dreadful Blade: Trinity in 2004 and his performance as The Chaperone during 9-month hiatus from WWE programming in 2010 might not have been an attempt to depart from pro-wrestling into mainstream acting but they did little to dissuade the status quo that is any film a pro-wrestler touches is immediately awful. They were cheesy, badly written, badly acted and well worth the ridicule CM Punk laid on them during their feud in 2011.
