In 2013, Becky Lynch signed with WWE. That same year, the former RAW Women's Champion appeared as a stunt double in an episode of the famous TV show Vikings.
Big Time Becks made her debut as an actress in 2018 when she starred in The Marine 6: Close Quarters, alongside Shawn Michaels and The Miz. The 35-year-old later appeared as herself on an episode of the drama TV series Billions in 2020.
In 2021, Lynch played the voice of Axehammer in the American computer-animated sports comedy movie Rumble. In an interview with The Independent, the former RAW Women's Champion disclosed that she is interested in pursuing an acting career after hanging up her wrestling boots.
"I studied theatre, that's what I got my degree in. That is something I would love to do when the wheels fall off. Just performing, being involved in entertainment, in general, is what I love and honestly, it's the only thing I'm really good at," she said.
Lynch is currently on the Monday Night RAW roster. Unfortunately, she is out of action due to a shoulder injury.
#5. Former WWE Women's Tag Team Champion Zelina Vega
Nearly six years before signing with WWE, Queen Zelina made her acting debut, playing the role of Astoria in the fantasy action movie Dorothy and the Witches of Oz in 2011.
Two years later, Vega landed another role in the horror film Chilling Visions: 5 Senses of Fear. She also appeared in two other movies that same year, Self Storage and Army of the Damned. In 2015, Zelina played the role of Amanda in the drama movie Hope Bridge.
Over the next few years, the former Women's Tag Team Champion focused on her wrestling career. However, she returned to acting in 2019 to play the role of AJ Lee in the movie Fighting with My Family.
Vega is currently on the Monday Night RAW roster. Like Lynch, the 31-year-old is reportedly out of action due to an injury.
#4. Former RAW Women's Champion Sasha Banks
After competing for about two years on the independent circuit, Sasha Banks signed with WWE in 2012. Since then, she has since become one of the company's top female superstars.

In an interview with The Athletic earlier this year, Banks revealed that she aims to become a successful Hollywood star.
"I want my face on the posters. I want people buying tickets to see Sasha Banks," the 30-year-old said.
Last May, WWE suspended Banks after she and her tag team partner Naomi walked out during an episode of Monday Night RAW. While some reports have suggested that the company has released The Boss from her contract, neither the company nor Banks have confirmed these rumors.

Speaking to Maria Menounos on Better Together, Flair disclosed that she is interested in pursuing an acting career in Hollywood. She even revealed the role she could see herself playing.
"I just finished all the Marvels in order! It took 3 weeks. After watching the last 22, if I was playing a bad guy, I'd love to be Thor's sister, Hela, and have a whole film telling her story," she said. [H/T: SEScoops]
Following a defeat against Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania Backlash this year, Flair took time off from in-ring competition to marry her fiance, Andrade El Idolo.
