Dave Bautista
A multifaceted talent with an immense upside, Dave Bautista wasn’t always tearing things up on the big screen. Bautista was a pretty popular wrestler before turning into a full time actor. Before even that however he was leading a pretty hard life, being arrested a number of times and getting into altercations as a bouncer before turning a corner and finding bodybuilding. Bautista has gone on to state that bodybuilding effectively saved his life. His athletic gifts that made him a great bodybuilder ultimately saw him trying out for wrestling where the WWE sent him to train at the famed Wild Samoan Training Centre. The rest is history.
