Batista bid WWE farewell after he got what he wanted, a WrestleMania match against Triple H. He also had a WWE Hall of Fame induction cancelled due to the pandemic. Now he is focusing on his acting career, and that included a cameo in a new NFL commercial.
During the Fox NFL Sunday pre-game show, wrestling legend and Hollywood star Dave Bautista made a humorous appearance, introducing the world to “The NFL Patch.” This spoof product promises to fix your NFL team’s shortcomings with a simple patch, whether it’s two quarterbacks, a bag of money, or veteran players, Bautista has the solution for every gap in your roster. The segment, lighthearted in nature, brought a comedic twist to the usual pre-game analysis.
FOX Sports took to social media to highlight the segment, tweeting: “Do you have a hole in your NFL roster? @DaveBautista has the thing for you! Introducing The NFL Patch,” with an accompanying video of Bautista showcasing the patch.
However, the joke took a playful jab at the NFL’s worst team, the Carolina Panthers, with Bautista humorously implying that even The NFL Patch wouldn’t be enough to salvage their season. “You need much more than the NFL patch to fix that disaster,” Bautista quipped, delivering a punchline that left fans chuckling. He also gave the Cowboys some grief for bringing back Zeke after they got rid of him last year, Batista was “meh” on if this is signing of a Cowboys great was a big one.
With the segment, Bautista brought his signature charm and wit to the world of football, providing a lighthearted moment amidst the intense buildup to NFL game day. As the NFL season continues, fans will no doubt remember this comedic introduction to the fictional “NFL Patch”—even if it can’t solve all of their team’s problems.
We will have to see what Batista does next, but this only proves that he is likely to pop up when we least expect him.
