Spectre: 10 Reasons You Should Be Excited For Batista In Bond 24

3. Yet Another WWE Performer Will Have Mainstream Success That Will Reflect Positively On Pro Wrestling

Batista excelling in film and following in The Rock's footsteps will unquestionably reflect well on the industry of pro wrestling. CM Punk's tirades are now hot in the press, and will likely be at the forefront of mainstream media's mind when contemplating what wrestling is all about. Having a glib, funny and overall entertaining wrestler like Batista doing press junkets and being able to discuss the positive benefits of a background in the wrestling industry on being a wildly successful character actor will be highly important in stemming what will be a year filled with less than positive press about pro wrestling overall.
