Batista Blasted For Having Gut Wrenching Bad Breath

Batista is a shoo-in WWE Hall of Famer, whenever they can finally get around to inducting him. He had a slot in 2020, but that whole ceremony was nixed. While the pandemic was to blame for that, this story focuses on another unfortunate medical issue.

Halitosis is a serious affliction that plagues a lot of people. It seems that Batista is one to have bad breath, or at least, this encounter caught The Animal while he was having an off day.

During the Cafe de Rene podcast, Rene Dupri’s podcast cohost revealed that he only met Dave Bautista once while he was in OVW. During that meeting, the main thing that stuck out to him was the fact that Batista’s breath was kicking something fierce.

“When I first met Batista, well, the only time I met him. It was in Memphis they were doing the drug testing. They brought the guys from other parts so we could all get drug tested together. I shook his hand and met him, but I almost passed out from his breath. He had the worst breath. I mean, it almost killed me.”

Batista hasn’t commented on this first-hand account yet, so we have yet to hear his side of the story. He may have just eaten a lot of garlic that day, but this still stands out as a core memory whenever The Animal’s name is brought up.

We will have to see if Batista every makes a return to WWE for any reason. He has a lot of fans who would love to see him come back for any reason, but he also has a very busy career in Hollywood that hasn’t slowed down at all. Hopefully, he has been able to fix any breath issues he may have.
