Movie star ‘Batista’ reveals dreams of wrestling comeback

Batista has admitted he wants to return to WWE and thinks about it ‘every day’ - but will only do so on two conditions.

‘The Animal’ is a six-time world champion but has found Hollywood superstardom outside the squared circle.

From playing a Bond villain in Spectre to his role as Drax in the popular Avengers: Guardians of the Galaxy series, Dave Bautista has enjoyed a number of box office hits.

The 49-year-old is the star of the new Sky Cinema feature Final Score, which sees him at the centre of the plot where he attempts to combat a terrorist threat at West Ham’s former Boleyn Ground stadium.

Although he has not wrestled since 2014, Batista revealed he would love to make a comeback - but on two accounts.

"I have to say that it's something I think about daily,” he told WhatCulture Wrestling.

"I think, one, it would have to be the right time, and two, it would have to be the right opponent.

"That's pretty much it, and it would have to make sense.

"I think the last time I went back was with really good intentions and I felt like I wasn't delivered what I was promised and that was just creatively.

"So, that would be it, I'd have to have a strong say of what I did and who I worked with.

"It would have to make sense as far as time, not only do I have to be free, but I also have to factor in there is a risk that I would be injured.”

WWE fans would certainly love to see him back for a final run.
