Even though Dave Bautista has fully transitioned into a Hollywood figure these days, he has had a legendary WWE career. During his prime, The Animal was one of the most intimidating beings out there, possessing an unmatchable physique. His terrifying persona added to his resume which garnered a massive audience base for the soon-to-be WWE Hall of Famer.

Well, one of his fans, who is a household name in American rap, is Cardi B. The 30-year-old rapper recently spoke to Hot 97. To the question about her favorite WWE Superstars, she quickly named the likes of Batista and Eddie Guerrero. Moreover, as a kid, she always felt that The Undertaker was a straight-up ghost. Before having all this conversation, Cardi B delved into her potential involvement at next year’s WrestleMania.

Ruling out a probable in-ring role due to her condition after recently giving birth, the rapper didn’t close the doors. She told Peter Rosenberg, the show host, that she might have to slap a b*tch if she’s not performing at the show. “I don’t know what to do; if I need to perform or slap a bitch, but like, I want to go; I have to fulfill some type of dream,” said Cardi B.

WWE has an entire history of having musical guests at their WrestleMania events. Well, who knows if they end up booking Cardi B to grab a mic and perform America the Beautiful in Philadelphia next year? Formerly nicknamed Bacardi, the flamboyant rapper currently boasts an Instagram account with 169 million followers. WWE would gain immense mainstream attention if the promotion could pull her off for an appearance.

Will Dave Bautista be there for WrestleMania 40?

Well, it’s a tough one to answer. As the fans know, Dave was to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame last year in Los Angeles. However, due to his Hollywood commitments, the WWE legend had to back out at the last moment. While the case might be no different next year, there’s a good possibility that Bautista would end up there in Philly for his induction.

Delaying the inevitable would do no good to the 6-time World Champion. Instead, his induction has been pending since 2020. However, due to the ceremony taking place behind closed doors at that juncture, the former Evolution member denied the chance. He stated that he’d like to have that special moment in front of his loved ones, and that’s the WWE Universe.

While nothing is certain at this point, fans would hope to have The Guardians of the Galaxy actor return to WWE for the WrestleMania weekend. Although the 40th anniversary of Mania is shaping up to be a tribute to ECW legends due to the event’s location, the time is running out for Dave to accept the honor.
