Batista Training with Cesar Gracie Camp
Former World Wrestling Entertainment star Dave Batista started a two-day training stint with the Cesar Gracie camp Wednesday after Strikeforce helped facilitate the connection with the potential signee and the noted California gym.

Gracie told Sherdog.com that Batista arrived this afternoon and is working technique drills with Nick and Nathan Diaz, Jake Shields and Gilbert Melendez in the Cesar Gracie gym in Lodi, Calif.

“We’ll see how it goes,” Gracie said. “If he wants to fight, we’ll get him going.”

Strikeforce is negotiating with the multi-time Wrestlemania headliner to try his hand in MMA. A long-time fan of the sport, who has reportedly trained at the Affliction training facility in Los Angeles, Batista began talks with Strikeforce last month after ending a lucrative eight-year run with the WWE. Batista said in interviews that he had become disillusioned with the industry and has pursued film acting.

Gracie said the connection started with Batista training partner Imani Lee, who fought on the same Dream 14 card as Nick Diaz in May.

“Nick and Imani, they started working, talking and working technique and then Imani expressed his desire to come up,” Gracie said.

Batista and Lee tried to contact Diaz for several days after the event, Gracie said, but were unsuccessful. They went to Strikeforce for help reaching Gracie, and the promotion facilitated the connection.

Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker has said he would be interested to see Batista, 41, tested in the MMA cage, and is particularly interested in matching him with another WWE alumnus in Bobby Lashley.

Gracie said he’s still not sure if Batista will fight, but is more than open to help him figure it out.

“If he wants to fight or not, that’s up to him,” he said. “People want to come in and train with us, then we’re all for it.”

Another thug in the making

Shit, I guess the potential Batista/Canseco blockbuster is out the window.

Yeah you know that's what Coker is thinking.

I'd watch. You know wrestling fans would eat that shit up too.

I wonder what the odds on Lashley via chair to the head would be?
