WWE legend and Hollywood star Dave Bautista shows off dramatic body transformation after shedding weight for latest role

WWE legend and Hollywood superstar Dave Bautista looks unrecognisable following his latest dramatic body transformation.

Bautista, 55, followed in the footsteps of fellow pro wrestling great Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson in the 2010s as he crossed over to acting, which he does full time now after retiring from the ring in 2019.

The American burst onto the scene in wrestling back in 2002 thanks to his gigantic frame when he debuted on SmackDown as Deacon Batista.

The legendary heavyweight then changed his name to Batista and went on to win six world titles while beating wrestling greats like John Cena, The Undertaker, Triple H, Randy Orton and many more.

Throughout most of his wrestling career, the ex-WWE Champion weighed around 290lbs (21st), with his heaviest ever weight clocking up a staggering 370lbs (26st).

However, the former World Heavyweight Champion shed it all for his latest role at The Killer’s Game and dropped to 240lbs (17st).

The Guardians of the Galaxy actor went on an intense diet a year and a half ago after wrapping up M. Night Shyamalan’s Knock at the Cabin.

The Marvel star revealed his unbelievable new physique on the red carpet and he now looks completely different to the behemoth that set the world of wrestling alight in the 2000s.

Bautista told Chris Van Vliet: “I’m getting super trimmed, this is probably the lightest I’ve been since I was 19 years old.

“The heaviest I’ve ever been is 370lbs (26st). When I started Deacon, I was about 325lbs (23st).

“Throughout most of my wrestling career I was about 290lbs (21st). Now I’m about 240lbs (17st).

“And I went a year and a half ago for Knock at the Cabin, I went 315lbs (23st). And that’s when the nightmare started.

“Getting that weight off, which has been a challenge. Now I’m really particular about my diet.”
