Dave Bautista Reveals WWE Move He Wants to Include in His Movies

Dave Bautista has revealed that he hopes to include a WWE Easter egg in all of his roles moving forward.

Bautista , who’s currently headlining the Amazon Prime sequel My Spy: The Eternal City , told ComicBook.com that he hopes to work his signature finishing movie, the Bautista Bomb, into as many future roles as he can as a wink to his fans.

The Bautista Bomb refers to a move the 55-year-old coined in his wrestling days. It sees Bautista lift his opponent onto his shoulders in a seated position before taking them down at a 90-degree angle. The move appears as the big finish to one of The Eternal City ’s action set pieces, and now Bautista is thinking of including it in all projects moving forward.

“I just wanted to put it in. We were working on that fight scene and I was like, ‘Oh man this would be fun,’” Bautista explained. “And now, it’s kind of become my obsession. I’m trying to squeeze it into every film just because. It’s one of those Easter eggs. I think if I can get it into every film, I will. It’s just a nod to my career. A nod to the fans.”

Bautista spent 19 years in the WWE, from 2000 until 2019, before hanging up his belt to focus on his acting career. In addition to his starring role in the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy , Bautista has played varied roles in Blade Runner 2049 , Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery , A Knock at the Cabin , and the Dune franchise .

According to IMDb , Bautista has eight live-action projects in development—in other words, ample opportunity to smuggle in a few Bautista Bombs.

My Spy: The Eternal City is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
