7 Pro wrestlers who train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

World Wrestling Federation's Wrestler Undertaker Poses June 2000 In Los Angeles Ca
The Dead Man Loves the 'Gentle Art'.

#6 Dave Bautista

Bautista has an immense passion for BJJ and has been training under Ceaser Gracie since 2010.

It was the MMA Legend, Nick Diaz who introduced him to BJJ.

Bautista was very active in the MMA circle during the strike force era. He even has one MMA victory to his account.

Being an active pro wrestler never stopped him from learning the 'Gentle Art'. He constantly worked on his BJJ and improved his game.

He was promoted to purple belt in 2014 by Ceaser Gracie.

He even slow-walked the customary BJJ gauntlet while getting whooped by his training partners after getting promoted to a purple belt.

A legit purple belt in BJJ has just too many weapons for his opponents.

But, inside the ring, he prefers to stick with spine buster and powerbomb rather than using his Jiu-Jits skills.

He still manages to find time for BJJ while he is busy with his acting in Hollywood.
