November 6, 2015. Note it on your calender. Its Bond day. Rather, its the release date for the 24th James Bond film, Spectre. Late last year it was revealed that six-time pro wrestling champion and WWE WrestleMania 30 main eventer Dave Batista would be cast as the villain, Mr. Hinx, in this latest Bond adventure. As the henchman and bodyguard of the film's main villain, played by Christoph Waltz, Hinx is expected to face off against Bond several times throughout the film. Obviously Batista wasn't the first pro wrestler to face off against Bond on-screen; that honor was already claimed by Hawaiis Toshiyuki Harold Sakata, who famously portrayed Oddjob, the bowler hat wearing assassin in 1964s Goldfinger. And like Sakata, you can expect that when these two characters finally face off, it's going to be truly electrifying.
