#3. Former WWE Champion Edge
Edge is a former 11-time WWE World Champion, but he was forced to retire from the business following an injury back in 2011. After his departure from the company, Edge went on to make quite a splash in the acting business. He is well-known for his role in Vikings.
Interestingly, Edge didn't actually start his acting career when his wrestling career came to an end; he was able to work both simultaneously. The Rated R Superstar made his first acting appearance as part of Beyond The Mat in 1999 when he portrayed himself in an uncredited appearance.
He later appeared as Lochlan in action-adventure Highlander: Endgame a year later, alongside Adrian Paul and Christopher Lambert. Of course, his acting career really caught fire when he retired from WWE in 2011. But he has since been able to make a successful return to the business after more than nine years.
Edge's last movie role came back in 2020 when he appeared alongside Kelsey Grammer and Denise Richards in Money Plane. It appears that The Rated R Superstar is now focused on his wrestling career.
