7 Wrestlers Who Appeared In Comic Book Movies

6. Kevin Nash (The Punisher)

Speaking of Kevin Nash, very few wreslters have given quite as wooden a performance in a comic book movie as the man in question. Nash, of course, is most famous for his portrayal of the gigantic Diesel in WWE and for wrestling under his own name in both WCW and WWE, but in 2004 he portrayed Punisher villain the Russian in the Thomas Jane movie. Nash barely did anything apart from a bit of grunting and lots of hitting things and it was a pretty shambolic take on a classic character. The movie itself wasn't actually too bad - and it seems to have improved with age - and it did actually make a profit at the box office, but Nash's performance was undoubtedly the worst part about it. Nash has also played Shredder in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze and Odin in a terrible rip-off version of Thor that was brought out to coincide with and exploit the original Marvel Studios version - both of which are somewhat related to comic books, but not strictly comic book movies.
