Why Dave Bautista deserves to rule 2014

9:31 PM


We've all had a fascination with the World Wrestling Entertainment at some point in our lives. Well, maybe not most of us. It was probably even just a very small handful of teenagers, but when I was one, there was definitely a weird few of us in our group of friends who had to have our dose of WWE.

So naturally, we've all had our favourite wrestlers.

Bautista and Rey Mysterio.
There was only a few of them that sprung into my mind when I want to remember my favourite ones. Rey Mysterio was my favourite tiny (compared to the other wrestlers) masked flying squirrel, John Cena was the guy with the chains and the white boy hip hop persona with a good heart and The Undertaker was a legend.

But what stole most of our attention and our little hearts was the buff beefcake with a kind face, Bastista, or what he's now known now, Dave Bautista.

His reign in WWE.
But what now excites my beating heart is the fact that he's in more and more must-see films. Later this year, he'll be gracing our big screens in Marvel's "Guardians of the Galaxy" as Drax the Destroyer. And with the films being one of the most highly anticipated films of 2014, it will be exciting to see where else he would be headed in the film industry.

The first ever look at "Guardians of the Galaxy" with Zoe Saldana, Chris Pratt, Bradley Cooper, Bautista and Vin Diesel.

What Bautista will be playing in the film.
Previously, he's appeared in RZA and Eli Roth's "The Man with the Iron Fists". The film as also presented by Quentin Tarantino, one of my favourite directors and even though the film hadn't received that big of a welcome last year it still had certainly received cult favourite status.

Bautista also appeared in 2013's "Riddick" with Vin Diesel. The film franchise has been a great favourite by many and last years offering was fairly received.

In "Riddick".
With both of these films in 2013, 2014 will only mean bigger and better things for the wrestler-turned-actor. His roles in "The Man with the Iron Fists" and "Riddick" proved that he deserves to be in great entertaining films, and with his upcoming role in "Guardians" it will only be a matter of time until he does get to be more known in films and we can't wait!

If you're still unfamiliar with Bautista (for shame though), here are a few fun facts about the most promising action star.

5 fun facts about Dave Bautista.

1. His dad is Filipino and his mom is Greek, which explains his very good face.

2. He was a lifeguard before he pursued body-building.

3. He also worked as a bouncer for clubs until he was arrested for fighting two patrons, and left one of them unconscious.

4. He has a wide range of tattoos, including a large Chinese dragon on his back.


5. He's a 44 year old grandfather.

We can't wait for "Guardians", especially with this beefy granddad starring alongside Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana. We hope the big budget comic book film will win the hearts of the audiences so that he could star in more cool films. Maybe he'll follow the stepf of his buddy Vin Diesel, as long as he doesn't do another "Pacifier", he'll be fine.
