When WWE wrestler Dave Batista was cast as the oddly lovable warrior Drax the Destroyer in Guardians Of The Galaxy, many fans weren't sure what to think.

The former NFL practice squad wide-receiver who is best known for a series of Old Spice TV commercials. Well, at least the guy proved that he could be quite hilarious.
