#2. Former WWE Superstar Nathan Jones

Nathan Jones was predicted to have a successful WWE career given his size but opted to leave the company in 2003 to pursue an acting career.

The former star landed several high-profile projects, including Troy, Fearless, The Condemned, Conan The Barbarian, Charlie's Farm, Never Back Down: No Surrender, The Scorpion King: Book of Souls, and most recently Mortal Combat.

While Jones has been part of 18 different movies since 2003, none have made Jones a household name. The former WWE superstar has had no significant success despite being in the industry for almost two decades.

Jones's size has allowed him to stand out in the ring, but he isn't a known name in the acting business.
