WWE Meets the MCU & DCU – Wrestlers Turned Superheroes!

From the squared circle to the silver screen! In this episode of our comic book podcast, Corey, Dylan, and Jon break down every time a professional wrestler made the jump into superhero movies and TV shows — and whether it actually worked. 💥🤼‍♂️🎬

We’re talking:

Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer in Guardians of the Galaxy

The Rock as Black Adam in the DCEU

John Cena as Peacemaker in The Suicide Squad and his Max series

Cody Rhodes as Derek Sampson in Arrow

Edge and Goldberg in The Flash

Eve Torres in Supergirl

…and a few appearances you probably completely forgot about!
