I had never really heard of him outside of wrestling until the memes, and since then his movie career has actually been on a pretty impressive trajectory.

Dave is killing it though. He has range, and is taking advantage of it by playing very different characters in wildly successful movies.

The rock also has range as shown in a few scattered roles but has appparently decided to limit himself to his family friendly light comedy action movie 'brand' more recently.

Cena is on his way up for sure.
