See No Evil - 5.1 (2006)
See No Evil is one of the most well-known WWE movies which is a straight-up horror using Kane to his full advantage. It was a great casting decision by the company as Kane is someone who portrayed a scary gimmick throughout his career, and putting that into the movie world just worked perfectly.

He is a little naive as a person, with Walter (Big Show,) often doing a lot of very silly things throughout the movie. It's very over the top and in your face humor, and while it certainly isn't for everyone, there is no doubt an audience for it and Big Show does a great job.
The Scorpion King - 5.5 (2002)

12 Rounds - 5.6 (2009)
Much like The Rock, it was through WWE's movies that John Cena got his first big breaks in acting as well. Another WWE Superstar who has gone on to become a Hollywood hit, Cena was fantastic in the lead role of 12 Rounds, which really is a thrilling action movie.
The concept was simple, with Cena's character, Danny Fisher, having to complete 12 different challenges in order to free his girlfriend who has been kidnapped. Of course, there was plenty of drama and lots of action, and while it's not the greatest film of all time, it's certainly an enjoyable one to watch.

It's a strong idea and it brought Stone Cold Steve Austin into the movie world, and while he hasn't gone on to be a big megastar, he certainly fits in during this movie. Its got great action and a strong lead, which is why it's one of WWE Studios' best.
Scooby-Doo! WrestleMania Mystery - 6.1 (2014)

Legendary - 6.1 (2010)

Fighting With My Family - 7.1 (2019)
Fighting With My Family is undoubtedly WWE Studios' greatest and most successful movie. With The Rock being heavily involved in this project, WWE had a major global name to try and push the movie and as the talented Florence Pugh took the lead role, this felt like a brilliant movie that non-wrestling fans can enjoy.
Even though this movie was actually all about wrestling, focusing on the career of Paige, it was able to tell a really emotional story while also pleasing diehard wrestling fans. With several A-list stars involved, the acting here was brilliant and it helped create a really fun film for the whole family to enjoy.
