    Which actor from the WWE would do best in MMA?

    Out of all the actors/wrestlers in the WWE, which one would do the best in Mixed Martial Arts.

    My opinion would be Kurt Angle...best wreslter in the world (1996).

    I think Sean O'Hare is making the change...... I wouldnt say he's the best by any means.....Kurt Angle was a world class wrestler there's more money doing what hes doing..
    Goldberg is rumored to be mma training
    Brock Lesner is rumored to be mma training

    LOL Honkey Tonk Man LOL (god that made me crackup)

    Obviously kurt angle would have the best starting point. He is a nasty wrestler, all he would have to learn is some stand up stuff and maybe learn some muay thai style clinch fighting.

    Goldberg has and does train at an MMA gym in Ca. But for him to fight would suprise me. Kurt Angle if he could learn to strike would be very dangerous IMO.

    Yeah Goldberg has been hanging around Pride in 2003 and he did say he wanted to fight in MMA but it never happened.

    Wouldn't mind checking out what he could do.

    No need to hate-its ur opinion against mine but u gotta look @the obvious of the wrestlers!angle is a good wrestler, i studied him n his moves thru out my high wrestling, but beniot is jus a str8 up tougher guy-he is more vicious,aggrissive n more intense. just wrestling will not win u fights n the cage if u cant throw hooks n take a few

    brock lesnar can't legally compete in any fighting organization anywhere in the world, or WWE will sue him. it was part of the deal he made to be released from his WWE contract. any rumored lesnar return is doomed for failure. he's stuck in limbo.

    latino heat is a crazy guy who can seemingly brawl. i like him and benoit, they are both tough muthas.

    benoit is more intense how? what has he done more intensely than a wrestling gold medalist like angle?what have you seen him do more intensely besides act?

    i will admit that benoit is a better actor than angle, and does a better job projecting intensity than angle does in a staged environment like WWE. but Angle DELIVERS a lot more intensity in real man-to-man athletic competitions.

    you can't judge how good a fighter is by comparing the quality of his acting to the acting of another guy with dramaticly better skills and athletic ability.

    christopher walken can act scarier than any real fighter, but i wouldn't bet money on him in the cage.

    and PLEASE explain why you think that benoit would have a greater ability to learn to throw effective hooks than a world class athlete like angle? elite wrestlers have INSANE amounts of explosive power, and can often pick up power punching pretty well (randlemans KO of cro cop comes to mind).

    I think that this monster Heidenreich would kick A#@ or even the old timers like Hardcore Holly or even Al Snow!

    I cannot watch pro westling anymore, just don't know what happened i was such a huge fan, guess that when i discovered MMA i got more into real fighting then all that soap soft core porn opera shit that is now the WWE, god even the new name sucks WWF was a lot better , viva the pandas LOL.

    Wrestling was a lot better when there where WCW, WWF and ECW around, even TNA sucks like hell.

    Yeah...Benoit can take alot of punches. One time I saw Eddie Guerrero Stand on the ropes and punch Benoit 10 consecutive times as hard as he could. And than Benoit cam back and was able to jump off the top ropes and head butt Guerrero.

    What makes you think Benoit can take punches (remember WWF is not real).

    Wrestlers have insane amounts of explosive power? I feel a wrestler is the best discipline for someone to learn but mostof them do not have punching power.

    Randleman is one man...one man with outstanding genetics. It is his genetics that enables him to do that...I believe he could compete in any sport he wanted. Kerr, Coleman, and Couture cannot punch well, but they are extraordinary wrestlers.

    If you believe this, than what is it about wrestling that gives a wrestler explosive power. People are born with punching power, Jumping power and running power/speed...it is not something that can be developd like strength.

    PLEAS STOP LISTING KEN SHAMROCK.........Idiots.

    -Goldberg is overrated.
    -I think Brock has talent and potential.
    -Of course Kurt Angle, he would do good. He has the body type and ability.
    -I love Benoit in the WWE but I dont know about MMA...
    -Benoit is a more tallented wresteler than they let you see.
    -Hardcore Holly used to do MMA before he got into pro wrestling.
    -Batista is big and strong but I am not sure how much talent he posesses....
    -Most of those WWE guys are on a lot of juice and are a lot taller and heavier than most of the MMA fighters. That also makes a difference. I would like to say that 85-90% if not more of the MMA fighters weigh under 225 lbs and 85-90% of WWE wrestlers weigh over 225 lbs.
