#7 WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns believes a career in Hollywood could be a possibility

WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns recently spoke about a dream match against The Rock during an interview with Ariel Helwani on his MMA Show.

While on the subject of a match with The Rock, Reigns presented WrestleMania 39 as a potential stage for their clash. The event will take place in 2023 at the SoFi Stadium in California — marketed as WrestleMania Hollywood.

During the interview, Reigns expressed that people in his position typically end up in the film industry (Hollywood), and it seems like the "obvious next step" for him in his career.

“The following year (2023), I’m in his (The Rock) backyard. Imagine me with another couple of years with this dominance. In Hollywood, which God willing is the obvious next step if available and everything happens correctly. People in my position typically end up there. To be able to tell that story with him, it’d be cool.”

Roman Reigns was featured in "Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw" (2019), which included The Rock in the leading role. The following year, Reigns played a role in an American romantic comedy movie titled "The Wrong Missy".


#8 WWE veteran John Cena indirectly responsible for 8-year-old child saving his sister's life

John Cena was featured as a CPR instructor on an episode of a Nickelodeon show back in 2019. The show is called "The Substitute", and it featured a cameo from the WWE veteran, who taught a group of children how to perform chest compressions in case of a choking emergency.

Eight-year-old Jaxson Dempsey was recently on a family outing when his 20-month-old sister started choking on a chicken nugget. Fortunately, Dempsey had watched Cena's demonstration, which allowed him to save his sister's life. Here's what Jaxson Dempsey said about the whole incident:

"We were driving to my haircut, and I noticed she was starting to choke from a chicken nugget from McDonald's. I told my dad to pull over. Then I was starting to pat her back, and it got out."
"In the very first episode [of 'The Substitute'], John Cena was on it, and in the last part, he showed how to save someone when they're choking."

Although John Cena indirectly helped a young child save his sister's life in this case, the WWE veteran is quite well-known for his charity work over the years.

At the moment, the 16-time WWE World Champion is busy with numerous Hollywood projects.
