15 AEW stars who acted in Movies or TV shows

#8 Matt Hardy (AEW wrest)

Matt Hardy, the leader of Hardy Family Office, has only acted once in his career. While he and Jeff Hardy wrestled each other on That 70's Show, that was not necessarily acting.

Considering that Big Money Matt is one of the more creative forces in wrestling, it's surprising that he has not acted more often. One of his most memorable 'acting' escapades appeared as "Matt' on an episode of Scare Tactics. Technically it was a candid camera reality show where the 'victim' was set up to be scared by a friend or family member in various scenarios.

Matt Hardy interestingly references his real-life issues regarding Edge and Lita and then proceeds to go on a murderous rage. Considering how over-the-top Hardy is in these scenes, it's no wonder that he could create larger-than-life characters.

#7 Christopher Daniels (AEW wrestler/Head of Talent Relations)

AEW's Head of Talent Relations, Christopher Daniels, has never really been in the acting game. Most of Daniels' career has been spent in squared circles across WWE, WCW, AEW, and Impact Wrestling/TNA. But a deep dive into his IMDB page reveals some surprises.

Daniels has appeared in The Rage: Carrie 2, an episode of The Practice, GLOW as muscular wrestler #1, and even as a referee in a wrestling-themed episode of the Netflix series, Love. Indeed, The Fallen Angel had small but substantial roles.
