Problems With Batista’s MMA Debut?

Former WWE Champion Batista is scheduled to make his MMA debut next weekend, but may have no locked-in opponent. He was originally contracted to to face Rashid Evans. Evans was apparently in jail, but had been released when he got the opportunity to fight. Evans then violated probation and is back in jail and won’t be released in time for the fight.

Batista’s back-up opponent was Bruno McKee, a super heavyweight who trains at his gym in Florida. McKee would have also been making his pro debut but he has pulled out of the fight because he wasn’t ready. The promoters of the event say they have another opponent ready and should be making the announcement soon.

The official poster for the event is below:

  2. John says:

    BAUTISTA. really?

  3. Intimidation at its finest!

  4. Jason Flex Armstrong Barrett says:

    I offered to step up on a weeks notice. Would be ny pro debut- they saw my ammy fights and backed out as theyre looking for a lay up. Batista and his camp should be ashamed . Best of luck of to team bautista searching every soup kitchen and graveyard for an opponent. When u grow some stones- let me know!

  5. dominick says:

  6. Sugar Ponybear says:
