Dave Bautista is still hoping for one more run in WWE and if he gets an offer then it would have to be at the right time and the right opponent.
“I have to say that it’s something that I think about daily. I miss it daily. I love it. I have a passion for wrestling. I feel that at the core of me, that’s just who I am. I love — I’m a physical performer and I miss it every day,” Bautista said when he was interviewed by What Culture.
“But I think, one, it would have to be the right time. Two, it would have to be the right opponent and that’s pretty much it. And it would just 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. If I got injured, I would need some time to rehabilitate myself. So I always kind of factor those things in.”
There are questions about his future with the “Guardians of the Galaxy” franchise due to how outspoken he has been about Disney’s decision to fire James Gunn. However, things seem to be looking good for Bautista because he signed a deal with CAA this week, the same firm that negotiated WWE’s TV deals with NBCUniversal and Fox Sports.
