Dave Bautista’s indomitable transformation as a human being needs to be studied. From being an arrogant beast in the past to having an extremely humble personality today, he’s an inspiration to many. Recently, one of his great buddies, Maven, spoke pretty highly of The Animal. The former Tough Enough winner rated some of the WWE Superstars he worked with.
In an amazing video on his YouTube channel, Maven just doubled Bautista’s worth. At first, Maven regarded the Glass Onion actor as one of his favorite human beings on earth. Moreover, the former Hardcore Champion revealed how Dave helped him through the lowest phase of his life. In fact, for whatever Bautista has done for him, Maven promulgated taking a bullet for him in the leg.
Also, he just didn’t stop there. Further, Maven recited a touching anecdote. He narrated an incident where a gym owner in his hometown of Virginia asked him for a favor. The gym owner wanted Dave Bautista to inaugurate his place. Maven, with a tad of hesitation, informed the owner he’d need to ask Dave first. Just as Maven texted the wrestler-turned-actor for the cause, Bautista agreed immediately.
The American wrestler also recalled how people gathered in long lines to meet Bautista. The former joked about how he’s been visiting the same gym for years now, and yet nobody lines up to see him. That pretty much shows how much people adore the former World Heavyweight Champion. In the end, Maven claimed how eagerly he’s waiting for Bautista’s next movie.

Dave Bautista once ranted against homophobic slurs for his mother

For someone as open-minded as Dave Bautista, one just couldn’t cross the line. Once a huge fan of legendary boxer Manny Pacquiao, Dave grew abhorrent of him in 2016. The reason was quite simple. Manny, the man whom Bautista looked up to, made some homophobic remarks publicly. After that, their relationship got derailed with The Avengers actor calling Pacquiao a “f**king idiot.”
Manny Pacquiao took it to the next level after he exclaimed that the same-s*x fellows were worse than animals. And of course, Bautista verbally spanked the PacMan afterwards. Referring to those disgraceful comments, Bautista said if somebody would’ve called her mother an animal, who’s a les*ian, he’d stuck his foot to their a**es.
Later on, Manny Pacquiao grew apologetic for his remarks. However, for what it’s worth, he got his fair share of sh*t from Dave Bautista. The latter has been extremely proud of his mother for accepting whatever she feels. And because of the way his mother proudly presents herself as a les*ian, he’s too inclined towards her choice. As for his WWE status, he was set to be inducted into this year’s Hall of Fame. However, her filming schedule prevented that from happening.
