It should probably go without saying now, but Dave Bautista is certifiably the greatest pure-action character actor currently working today.

His movie career should have taken a similar path to those of Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin, dipping in and out of WWE Studios schlock and padding it out with one or two more mainstream releases. Somehow, in 2019, he jockeys with The Rock for screen time and has even arguably surpassed him as a credible Hollywood asset.
