Since exiting WWE, Dave Bautista has made a name for himself as a huge name in Hollywood with roles in franchises like James Bond and the MCU. Now, the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion has taken on a new role as part of Fox’s NFL Sunday pre-game show.
In the skit, Bautista humorously pitched the NFL Patch as the solution to any team’s shortcomings, whether it’s replacing quarterbacks, filling roster gaps with veteran players, or even throwing in a bag of money.
Speaking about the Carolina Panthers, widely regarded as one of the NFL’s struggling teams this season, he quipped, “You need much more than the NFL Patch to fix that disaster.” Bautista also had a playful dig at the Dallas Cowboys, showing mild indifference toward the team’s decision to re-sign Ezekiel Elliott, commenting that he was “meh” on whether bringing the former star running-back back was a significant move.
While Bautista may no longer be an active presence in WWE, his ability to entertain audiences remains as strong as ever. The Animal recently shared that he still hopes to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and despite missing the fans, knows he’ll never wrestle again. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on the WWE Superstar turned acting powerhouse.
