TNAfan123 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 TMZ.com broke the story on Monday morning that former WWE superstar Dave Batista is becoming a professional Mixed Martial Arts fighter. The 6'5", 290 pound Batista was in Hollywood over weekend and told TMZ that he's headed to the Strikeforce MMA promotion, home of another former WWE superstar, Bobby Lashley. Batista even told the TMZ camera guy that he already has his first fight lined up, but can't comment on it just yet. There have been rumors for months that the 41 year old Batista would be following in the footsteps of Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley. Now, its official So how do you thinks he's going to do? I for one think that age is not on his side here but wel see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaysin Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Batista is going to get destroyed. Simple as that. Brock and Bobby had youth on their side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Final Countdown Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I've followed that man's entire career...don't you doubt him now! I've doubted him from the first match I saw him in (towards the end of his run on ECW, I think.) He's done nothing to change my mind since. Batista is going to get destroyed. Simple as that. Brock and Bobby had youth on their side. Not to mention, Lesnar and Lashley had a solid base to start with as former amateur wrestlers. I don't think Batista has any real training in an actual fighting discipline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabbo Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Batista's inner physicals are great - he can walk for miles inside pits of danger. That sort of stamina will really help him in the cage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatorBait19 Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Batista is going to get destroyed. Simple as that. Brock and Bobby had youth on their side.

To say he's going to get destroyed without knowing who he'll be in the cage with is just silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slagaholic Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 To GnP you have to have the skills to get them to the G before you can P. Batista doesn't have that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linsolv Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 As much as I tend to agree that he'll get destroyed, this seems totally typical for Batista. Every comment I've heard regarding his backstage demeanor is that he's an ungrateful jerk with no respect for the business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alden Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Batista is going to get killed. He is to old to start fighting. His stamina is odviously bad......As far as i can tell he has no amature background and no a few month in a dojo does not make you a fighter. I am going to laugh when he fails a test though. There is no way in hell he is going to make it a year. Lesner i knew would be good because he has the background. lashley well i think he is still trying to find his footing but he is doing good enough.......batista? no way in hell............

eayragt Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Storyline-wise I liked the PPV. Kane gets to feud with SES and then fights Punk at MITB. Then we likely find out it's not Punk, and Kane moves on... I've been dying for Mysterio to turn heel for ages as he's blaaaaand, but they'll never do it for business reasons I can only agree with. But this actually gives him a purpose, a match (which hopefully he can win clean (which never happened in his first reign) with Swagger, then a DQ win against either Kane or Drew depending on which route they go down. Suits me. Seeing Jericho vs Bourne on PPV rocked. People who worry about Jericho don't need to - he got the skills and charisma to build himself up as a legitimate threat in a couple of months. Cena gets to feud to NXT without it being about the title. Also good. Although you could argue Cole got legit injured, there was no need for all three commentators to abort their positions, leading to the likely conclusion that Cole is the king-pin. Kings sucks. Striker rocks. His colour was awesome. And Sheamus goes... Triple Threat with Orton and Edge, I guess? That makes the MITB card: Sheamus © vs Edge vs Orton Mysterio © vs Swagger Cena vs Barrett Kane vs Punk Men's cross brand MITB with possibly: Women's cross brand MITB Hart Dynasty / Samoans Looks good to me. There could be a second MITB match of some tyoe, or there are more midcard matches out there (Intercontinental / US / Drew (although all of them could be in MITB).

Then can probably come up with some kind of watered down ladder match for the divas and I'm not sure the average fan will notice.
