Chris Jericho is a man of many talents. The legendary star has won World Championships, toured with his rock band, and even acted in films. He's now given his thoughts on other wrestlers-turned-actors and picked his favorite among John Cena, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and Dave Bautista.
The Rock was the first of the three to set out for Hollywood, and he's become one of the most successful movie stars of his generation. Cena has also found success, but Batista surprised many with his meteoric rise in Tinseltown.
Dave Bautista landed a hit role as Drax the Destroyer in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy series, which ultimately brought him into the Avengers films. He continued stacking success with roles in Blade Runner 2049 and, most recently, Dune.

In a recent appearance on The Maggie & Perloff Show, Chris Jericho named The Animal as his favorite among the trio. The Learning Tree cited Batista's range and the variety of his roles as reasons for the pick.
"Right now, there are a lot of guys making some pretty big films and movies between Dwayne Johnson and John Cena, but I think Dave Bautista has done a great job of picking a variety and diverse collection of roles. I would say Dave is probably my favorite out of all of them," Jericho said. [H/T Fightful]
Chris Jericho dismisses the idea of John Cena-esque retirement tour
John Cena has found plenty of success in Hollywood, but he's not quite finished with the wrestling industry yet. The 16-time World Champion is returning to WWE next month to begin his year-long retirement tour.
Chris Jericho has been asked about his retirement plans for the past several years, but the 54-year-old doesn't seem ready to hang up his boots. In an appearance on Z100 New York, he cited Sting's retirement at 65 and dismissed the idea of doing a Cena-style tour to close out his career:
"I don’t know; I haven’t really thought about that. I’ve never been the guy who’s like, ‘year-long retirement ceremony.’ That seems a little, kind of like, eh."
Jericho is the reigning ROH World Champion and is still more than capable of being in the ring. Only time will tell when The Ocho will decide to hang up his boots.
