Nash is used to interacting with blacks in alleyway, so a library was new frontier for him

>>212163489 (OP)
He did star in a few movies. He was a bad guy in the first Expendables, most of his other roles seem to be in direct to DVD action schlock. The only ones I've seen were The Condemned and Damage, which were both solid enough for what they were, and the girl in Damage was really hot.

Either Hollywood just didn't want him for anything bigger, or he didn't want to do what it takes to make it big in Hollywood the way Rock, Cena and Batista were.

He briefly did and he hated it. He said he couldn't stand waiting around on set and in trailers all day reading scripts and the only Hollywood people he spoke fondly about were stunt people.

I watched him in that underground fighting movie

>>212163489 (OP)
He was in an episode of Nash bridges

>>212163489 (OP)
David can act, he just choses bad roles with the exception of Sapper Morton. Man even took acting lessons because he understood how important that role in Blade Runner was.

Steve was in The Longest Yard and Death Race remakes. Dwayne can't act, and has tried several times in his career to hijack projects.

John is mediocre. Knows his range. It's why he's a C-Tier D.C. Hero on TV.

>>212163489 (OP)

He's right. Chris Benoit had a better hero fall from grace because he had kinetic energy than Anakin in the prequels and Vegeta in the Buu Saga. I can buy Chris murdering his family so he can be reunited with Goku in the afterlife. I can't buy into Hollywood.

>>212164396
The difference between Undertaker and the other wrestlers named in this thread is he was playing a gimmick that WWE owned, not an exaggerated version of himself. You couldn't really put him in a movie as the character he's known for, the way you can put the Rock or Cena in a movie and have them basically be the same guy as they are in wrestling.

when he was wrestling, but on the movies he falls flat, or at least his roles have been shit.

Remember when Austin walked out the night after WrestleMania 18 because he didn't like his place on the card?

Remember when Austin skipped the brand split draft in 2002 because he wasn't going to be the first pick?

Remember when he no showed a bunch of Raws in Fall 01 because he had to put kurt angle over for 9/11 reasons and he didn't want to?

Remember when he walked out again because he was seething over lesnar and vince was trying to move on from Austins old ass?

Remember when he didn't want to put The Rock over at WrestleMania 2000 so he got his neck surgery faster than he was supposed to?

Remember when Austin came back in 2003 and got embarrassed by Triple H for being a pretend sheriff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuNAYdcgRcc&t=41s

>>212165348
yes

>>212165348
yeah but he actually drew crowds unlike half of those people

Just about every wrestler who successfully goes to Hollywood ends up having to do some weird effeminate, gay or crossdressing shit. Either to show their range and prove they're not one-note or as part of a Hollywood emasculation ritual, depending on how conspiratorial you are. There's no way Steve Austin would play ball with Hollywood on that front.

I used to listen to his podcast and he had a barely concealed contempt for Hollywood types. I think it's likely they tried to put him in a dress or make him act like a fag.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSKHRmjHh_I

>>212165520

>>212165348
Half of those are based maybe more

>>212163489 (OP)
Longest Yard, Condemned, Recoil, not to mention shit like grown ups and expendables. He's just not very good at it and it and probably knew. Unlike Rock and Cena, he realized he wasn't good and wanted to keep his aura. Bapatista is a pretty good actor tho fuck that one anon who said he was talentless.

Should have gotten into comedy. He's one of the funniest people of all time. His story about falling over in the shower is an all-timer and it's all in the delivery.

He was a wrestler who wanted to wrestle and was more of a technician pre injury than a brawler. He did not have a foot out the door to Hollywood.

I imagine he is also connected to a lot of Vince shit being the face of the industry during its most popular period. He’s probably keeping his head down.

He was fine, but he doesn't have the charisma or stage presence of the Rock. Stone Cold is perfect for wrestling though. It also doesn't help that he was the babyface in his movies instead of the heel.

>>212164597
Can he even use the name Undertaker? How was HHH billed in Blade Trinity?

>>212165348
>Remember when Austin walked out the night after WrestleMania 18 because he didn't like his place on the card?
He was correct.

>Remember when he no showed a bunch of Raws in Fall 01 because he had to put kurt angle over for 9/11 reasons and he didn't want to?
Again, correct.
>Remember when he walked out again because he was seething over lesnar and vince was trying to move on from Austins old ass?
Again, correct. And old ass? They have Goldberg in the main event at 57 years old right now.
>Remember when he didn't want to put The Rock over at WrestleMania 2000 so he got his neck surgery faster than he was supposed to?
Literally didn't happen. (the putting Rock over that is).

Why does Hogan get shit for his shenanigans but not Austin?

Unironically he could a movie about a wrestler that everyone thought would go no higher than the midcard, becomes the biggest in the world, walks away, then beats his wife/wives.

>>212163489 (OP)
Austin beat all his wives and girlfriends. He was never going to blow up in Hollywood.

>>212170191
>Why does Hogan get shit for his shenanigans but not Austin?
Because Hogan is full MAGA and modern WWE fans are tranny leftist retards (you have to be to watch the current product). Undertaker is MAGA too, but I don't think there's anything he could do to get them to turn on him.

>>212170191

Vince is genuinely retarded for wanting to book prime Brock Lesnar vs. Steve Austin in a throw away match on RAW instead of building to PPV match to sell some tickets. Austin was right.

>>212171557
May I suggest Stone Cold ET on YouTube

>>212171818
>What about HHH? He literally showed up in Congress for his mother-in-law's cabinet hearing.
HHH didn't do anything "wrong" (asides from being in the Kliq and holding people back).
It seems to go like this
>Austin = no politics + bad behavior = ok
>HHH = MAGA(ish) + no bad behavior = ok
>Undertaker = MAGA + no bad behavior = ok
>Hogan = MAGA + bad behavior = not ok
I'm sure WWE fans seethe over the fact that the McMahon's were huge Trump fans and donors to his campaign, but they love the company too much to care.

>>212171828
>Vince is genuinely retarded for wanting to book prime Brock Lesnar vs. Steve Austin in a throw away match on RAW instead of building to PPV match to sell some tickets. Austin was right.
This. Austin said that he would have jobbed to Brock if they did business the proper way and built it up to a PPV where they could make real money. WCW did the same shit when they had Goldberg win the title from Hogan on Nitro instead of doing it on PPV.

>>212171505

He put Rock over in his final fucking match. I also remember him losing to Bret at Survivor Series 96. Mankind also pinned him in a triple thread match at Summer Slam 99. He also lost the belt a few times (Undertaker/Kane both pinned him in some kind of match, I can't remember).
Austin was definitely protected and he was a huge pain in the ass to work with from what I've heard. But he has done jobs (and they wanted to do some shit like have him lose to Brock on Raw or to a scrub like Jeff Jarrett).

>>212171828
The fact Brock went on to mainevent SummerSlam later on with The Rock tells me Vince did it basically out of spite

Because Austin wasn't half as bad as Hogan. Austin refused to do a few jobs here and there while putting over actual talent like Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit and guys who he knew could draw like The Rock and HHH and saved WWF.

Hogan derailed people's careers for no reason and politicked for his entourage of talentless nuthuggers to take spots from more talented wrestlers and killed WCW.

Austin was cutting great promos in ECW which is why WWF giving him the muted Ringmaster persona was such a bizarre decision.

I’m surprised Mick Foley hasn’t done more acting. He done some voice work, seems like he’d be a natural for some comedy or character work.

Also Hell in the Cell happened 27 years ago yesterday. Crazy.

Dwane obviously overselling Austin’s stunner all the time was hilarious. I get he later retconned a story that it was all a backstage bet for beers. But it legit made Austin look like a fool.

>Be Bret Hart

>Complain that The Kliq only put their friends over
Bret only worked with his family friends most of his career

>Tell Hogan "fuck you" for not doing the favor after WM9
Bret gets the biggest paycheck of his career due to Hogan's involment

>Bret consistently wants to be on WWF
Negotiate with WCW for more money and main event spot every time

>Calls HBK unprofessional
Refuses to put him over on Montreal to prove he's a bigger man

I just read Bret's autobiography. It's quite funny.

>>212179663
if im not wrong he doesnt want to have kids because he was always on the road, perhaps after the retirement he may want some, even though becoming a hollywood actor may also make you travel a lot

>>212163489 (OP)
He didn’t like acting . He turned down the staring role in this film

>>212172811
>we have The Pacifier at home

>>212171828
I don't know about that, you do need good matches on free TV sometimes.

>>212181055
It was the first round of a King of the Ring qualifier. Jobbing out a top guy like that is insane. There's a reason every wrestler I've ever heard talk about this incident says Austin was right, even if he handled it wrong.

>>212181206
It's always discussed in isolation.
Presumably there would have been a longer feud between the two, and it would have given Austin a kayfabe reason to get pissed off at both Lesnar and Vince.
Knowing WWE they would have fucked it up, but it COULD have worked.

>>212163489 (OP)
>Batista
Batista is an extremely good actor, if it wasn't for his sheer mass, he would disappear in the character itself, I think when he turns 65 he will have a better career.

>>212170291
It's like having a /k/ thread anywhere but /k/.

The improvised N word nuked his hollywood career

>>212163489 (OP)
He was pretty good in the few things he was in.
I rewatched The Condemned a few weeks ago and it was a solid action flick. He was great in The Expendables.

>>212178464
Your tribe has Reddit locked down, you should fuck off over there.

Seeing him in Tactical Force forever killed any need for me to see him in another movie, learn to choose your projects Steve...

>>212179663
His heel turn feels a bit affected. He came to my town and just showed up at the end of the night for five minutes to tell us we all suck. I guess that sounds funny, but it was annoying.

>>212163489 (OP)
It's a bit weird that wrestlers are just basically stuntmen who look like action heroes and do nothing but act. Then they transition into real movies, don't do their own stunts, can't act, and no one can really take them seriously as action heroes because they're so associated with wrestling. They should be ideal candidates for being actors.

>>212163489 (OP)
His look would severely limit the kinds of roles you could cast him for. Rock, Cena, and Batista can play a much wider variety of characters. Simple as that.

>>212163489 (OP)
>So can't Rock, Cena, and Batista.
It's "neither did".

>>212186256
Based retard,

>>212186075
Yelling at or in front of a crowd isn’t really acting

I just went back and watched Attitude era product after a long time and I definitely don't remember his promo skills being that weak. He was stepping all over his words and not making any clear point most of the time. Compare that to Rock's dynamite promos that were the stuff of dreams and it's easy to ask yourself why, in hindsight, was Stone Cold so big when there wrestlers at the time who were better at everything he did? Of course the answer is he was pushed by Vince but still, the perception remains.

>Begin watch wrestling during Ruthless Aggression 2003
>Quit WWE when nu-DX is introduced in 2006
>Start watching WWE after seeing CM Punk's pipebomb
>Quit again during 2017

Seems to me I haven't missed anything at all.

>>212163702
Stone Cold and the guy who starred in Stone Cold. Pure pottery.

>>212186960
You haven't missed anything except the brief period in time where The Rock brought back TV-MA by forcing it due to being a TKO board member and then the product going back to PG-era mediocrity.

>>212186520
He literally pioneered the attitude era with his Austin 316 promo you fucking retard

>>212186520
Stone Cold looking like an idealized working stiff you'd find at a bar who hates his boss and his wife went a long way. He's the cool guy your dad knew who's kind of a loser but in your shitty small town circle he seems cooler than he is because he doesn't seem miserable and just does and says what he wants.
He wasn't the first guy to lean into an average joe angle, but he's the first big one not to make it seem like a humble backstory but embraced being an asshole who was rude and obnoxious but made a point.
The rambling just added to that. He's a guy you could know who they put to use beating people up.

>>212163702
WEBM doesn't play. Why does this randomly happen to me?

>>212186154
Yeah he doesn't have a Hollywood smile

>IT AINT A RACE THING, IT AINT A COLOUR THING, ITS A ME KICKING YOUR ASS THING

We'll never see his sort again.

>>212169602
Yeah besides, he was pretty good in that Michael bay movie

>>212189269
I never understood how 6'2 jacked Steve Austin was meant to be an everyman type but the AE was magic for everyone involved

>>212180719
We got lucky there VV is s much better actor and I don't even hate Cenas acting he couldn't sell that role

Who was in the wrong here?

>>212171818

What exactly Triple H has ever DONE?

>Least known member of the Kliq

>Horrendous Authority stable stagnating RAW for 3 years with one of the worst WM32 main event, Reigns vs Triple H
>Known for having a great mind for business when NXT's success was solely Dusty Rhodes' booking
>WWE having a renessaince era because senile Vince was kicked out

Looked it up he has like 3 or 4 daughters no sons. Must've been tough to not raise a boy like himself. If I had 2 daughters and then doc told me #3 was also a girl I'd lose it, not only would it be gameover for having a son but statistically one of them will be sexually assaulted or become a stripper/prost/only fans whore

That's where the idealization comes in. In real life your dad's bald friend from work has a beer guy and pisses himself, Stone Cold isn't that guy but he doens't look that far off compared to the 80's/early 90's stables.
And 6'2'' is relatively average for a white guy back then, and smaller than the monsters that used to be headliners. everything about Austin is, relatively, unremarkable and that's part of what made him work.He isn't worried about being healthy, he's chugging beers and still kicking peoples ass.

>>212190815
He had a great look and physique and he had that cocky meme tier energy. People share gifs of his nodding and whatnot all the time because he was memorable

>>212163971
By the time he was getting into movies in the mid-2000s he was 41, had blown knees, a fucked back, and was dealing with chronic pain and limited movement from when Owen Hart broke his neck.

Stone Cold was too old and physically broken to keep playing the tough young badass character he was pigeonholed into and any other role/look was simply impossible for him. Add in he didn't even need the money since he still makes royalties to this day and yeah, it's not hard to see why movies were always just a hobby and he never bothered to go hard at them like The Rock did.

This dubious and petty revisionism over Hunter's career and achievements just because he's a shit booker now is infuriating. He was a top-tier superstar for an incredibly long time and has legendary promos and matches up the ass. Stop it.
