Five times when WWE players became Adult Actors

WWE wrestling has been one of the most lucrative careers across the globe. During their careers, they make quite a living thanks to the brands associated with the sport, broadcast deals and many more. Some of them have gone on to become Hollywood actors. However, not many have the same luck and thus, decide other avenues to earn money. In this listicle, we will discuss those WWE players who turned to the Adult Industry.

Five WWE Players Who Turned to the Adult Industry:

1. Buff Bagwell

Also, known as ‘The Stuff’, he was successful with the WCW before having a forgettable WWE. Even though he continued wrestling independently for promotions, he decided to work as a gigolo for a company named "Cowboy 4 Angels" - charging women $3000 a night. Apart from this, he also worked for Vivid Entertainment.

2. Beulah McGillicutty

Most of the ECW fans remember her for being the childhood love of Tommy Dreamer. Even though she looked innocent, her naughty side came out when a video of her in another kind of action emerged online.

She later went on to pose in several saucy and explicit snaps but would go on to write and publish a children's book called “Gertrude the Great” in 2012.

3. Bubba Ray Dudley

He and Ron Jeremy became adult stars after their respective careers in ECW and WWE ended. The former became friends with Rob Black, the husband of Lizzy Borden and the adult movie director. Notably, Dudley wanted to be in this profession and managed to direct one movie as well.

4. Mickie James

She achieved a legendary status in WWE and got huge success for promoting TNA, a rival of WWE. However, unlike the players, she made a change in her wrestling career after posing as an adult actor.

5. X-PAC

He was the Hall of Famer during the 90s but his career turned upside down after the turn of the century or shall we say, the millennium. He and his fiancée, Chyna, decided to turn into adult stars.

The pair starred in a homemade adult movie called “One Night in China” and it proved to be successful, winning several awards and remaining a best-selling adult film for a long time.
