During a recent appearance on “The Late Show with James Corden”, actor Chris Pratt commented on issuing a challenge to Batista while they were filming Guardians of the Galaxy. He said,
“I would text people, and I’m blackout, have no idea what I’m texting people, on like an Ambien. It was like: ‘Dave, I want to wrestle you. I want to wrestle you. No one needs to know, but I just want to know. I think I could take you. I think I could wrestle you, bro. Like collegiate rules — no elbows, no knees. I just want to feel the power.’ Dave would kill me. He is by far the toughest dude in all of Hollywood. I’ll never forget the look of confusion when I asked him about the texts.”
