It's already been established that he is the greatest WWE Superstar of All-Time. Now that he's bigger than the WWE itself do you think he'll transition to Hollywood and replace The Rock as the biggest box office star in the world?

Hard to say until we see the box office takings when Disney do their live action version of Tarzan, with Roman in the lead role of course.

I would think actors like Jason Momoa and Channing Tatum would be the next Rock in Hollywood before Roman Reigns would.

He was great on Game of Thrones and he looks like he'll be pretty great as Aquaman. Didn't see Road to Paloma.

Jason Mamoa stunt double joke was made already so I will just chime in that The Rock was a star at a time when literally two and three times more people watched WWE. He transcended on his own talents, but the fact more people gave a shit about his brand helped a lot. It remains to be seen if The Rock can carry a film on his own. He's a lot of flops. Though adding him to a franchise is like viagra.
No one gives a f*** about Roman Reigns and unlike the Rock he can't act or deliver lines for shit.

If you put him in any actor's role in any movie my money is on Roman Reigns delivering a superior performance. Robert De Niro in Raging Bull? Roman Reigns would do it better. Al Pacino in The Godfather movies? Roman Reigns would do it better. Laurence Olivier, Peter Sellers, Rob Schneider, Marlon Brando, Roman Reigns would out act any of those hacks.

Roman is handsomer than a thousand James Deans, more badass than a gaggle of Jason Stathams, and more hilarious than an army of Steve Harveys. He sings better than all the Beatles in their prime, too.

In fairness nobody thought Batista would make it in Hollywood, so there you go. He may never win an Oscar, but he'll make a living in movie land. Maybe there's some hope for Roman.

Roman can barely even say a coherent sentence. I doubt he can be an actor.

I strongly doubt he would be a big star but he could definitely do bit parts as a bodyguard or hit man.

He could equal Goldberg or Big Show levels.

I find it kinda interesting that Roman Reigns is the Rock's cousin, and looks like Jason Momoa, who's first big role (that I remember) was the Scorpion King prequel, playing a young version of Rock's character. It's a big circle and it all leads back to Maivia!

Considering his current ability to deliver a promo in the WWE not bloody likely at this point.

He won't be the Rock, but he could be the Rock's best friend.

You guys talk about Jason Momoa, I remember the days when he was on this short-lived Fox show called "North Shore." Man, that was so long ago.
