10 WWE Wrestlers You Didn't Know Appeared In Movies

7. Ox Baker In Escape From New York

The master of the Heart Punch was one of the wildest wrestlers of all time. His finishing move was even attributed to several wrestler deaths and he was genuinely feared by the fans. His unusual charisma translated to film and television, including a role in John Carpenter's cult classic Escape From New York. Baker's role only a small one, playing Snake Plissken's opponent in a no holds barred modern-day gladiatorial contest held inside a ring. Baker doesn't have any lines but he does some fantastic grunting and grimacing. His eyebrows and beard are spectacular, too.
