Batista became a household wrestling name after he unleashed numerous Batista Bombs on his opponents. Otherwise known as The Animal, Batista became a rising star after being part of Evolution with Triple H, Randy Orton, and Ric Flair. Batista parted ways with Evolution and became the World Heavyweight Champion. When Batista didn't like the direction that WWE was going, he ventured into mixed martial arts.

Although he made an impression in MMA, Batista left to star in Hollywood blockbusters. Wanting to concentrate on his acting career, Batista didn't compete in MMA, as he opted for roles in James Bond's Spectre and Guardians of the Galaxy.

He returned to WWE after starring in several blockbusters. Since Batista made his debut in the WWE, he purchased several vehicles. After venturing into movies, Batista's net worth grew and so did his car collection. Considering Batista is built like a tank, he needed rides that accommodated his large frame. He bought several cars and bikes that most men can only dream about owning. We wanted to see what rides Batista uses to get around when he's not participating in WrestleMania or shooting a Hollywood blockbuster, so we gleaned photos from his car collection. His collection consisted of a vast array of vehicles.

15 Owns: Bentley Continental GT

As with most car collectors, Batista sells his cars once he feels that the car has overstayed its welcome and when he wants a new joyride. One of the cars that Batista sold is the Bentley Continental GT.

According to the Bleacher Report, the car was stock except for the chip and exhaust work, as well as custom rims and the grille. Batista placed the car with a starting bid of $50,000 and a Buy it Now price of $172,999. Some of the appealing features of the Bentley Continental GT are the spacious cabin and the engine, which provides plenty of power.

14 Owns: Lamborghini Murcielago

Having a supercar is essential for any car fanatic to complete his or her collection. When Batista was completing his collection, he didn't forget to include the Murcielago. Many people believed that he couldn't fit into the Murcielago due to his large stature, but Batista proved fans wrong during the WWE interview by getting inside the car.

Under the bonnet of the Murcielago is a 6.2-liter engine, capable of spurting out 641 horsepower, allowing the car to reach 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 205 mph. The average price of a Murcielago is around $220,000.

13 Owns: Cenzi Chopper

While most of Batista's vehicle collection consisted of supercars and SUVs, he had to include a few motorbikes to complete the collection. One of the motorbikes that Batista owned was the Cenzi Chopper. Batista refers to the Cenzi Chopper as his baby. "If it is not raining, I’m on this bike."

Batista got the chopper from Cenzi's shop, located in Spencerport, New York, and the owner's name is Tony Cenzi, who has made choppers since the '90s. Considering the sun shines often in Los Angeles, Batista gets around town on the Cenzi Chopper often.

12 Owns: Chevrolet Impala

During his WWE career, Batista formed a friendship with the late Eddie Guerrero. One of Guerrero's trademarks was his entrance into the arena with a low rider. When Guerrero passed away, Batista wanted to pay tribute to his friend. Batista took his 1964 Chevrolet Impala to a modifier, who painted the car with pictures of Eddie Guerrero.

To show fans his homage, Batista posted the picture on social media with the caption, "My 64 Eddie Guerrero tribute. I miss that dude every day. #vivalaraza #latinoheat #Imperials LA #proudmember."

11 Owns: Hummer H2

Big boys need big toys. Since Batista's muscular body needed lots of space, it made sense that he opted for a big vehicle such as a Hummer. When consumers realized Hummer's off-road capability and strength, they demanded that the U.S. maker produce a civilian version. Hummer obliged by producing the H2.

Rappers featured the car in their videos, helping Hummer to get the attention of the mainstream. Many consumers purchased the H2 but realized that the car was impractical, as it did not fit into one lane and finding a suitable parking bay was a nightmare. The car was also a guzzler and unreliable.

10 Owns: Range Rover

There was a Range Rover featured in Spectre, but Batista purchased his Rover before he starred in the movie. Once Batista had fun with the vehicle, he decided to put in on the market. According to the Bleacher Report, Batista placed the Ranger Rover with a Buy it Now price of $75,000.

Fans responded better to the Range Rover than the Bentley Continental GT that Batista sold, as the highest bid reached $60,100 a day before the bidding ended. Much like the G-Wagon, the Range Rover has become a favorite SUV amongst celebrities. Since celebrities began driving the Rover, their fans followed suit.

9 Owns: BMW 745

Any car connoisseur's collection would be incomplete without this vehicle. Apart from the Mercedes cars that Batista owns, he wanted to have a car that provided luxury and performance.

The obvious choice for him was the 2003 BMW 745. Besides providing a comfortable cabin, the BMW 745 has a 4.4-liter engine, capable of pumping out 329 horsepower. Although the 745 provides a spacious cabin and performance, the car is also reliable. BMW has garnered a reputation for producing high-quality, affordable vehicles.

8 Owns: Chuck Palumbo Chopper

Besides the Cenzi Chopper, Batista also owns a Chuck Palumbo Chopper. Chuck Palumbo used to be in the WWE until he decided to pursue his passion for fixing motorbikes. Palumbo rode into the WWE arena numerous times on the bikes that he built. He owns a factory warehouse in San Diego, California and wanted to make bikes for his friends Batista and Rey Mysterio.

"They were both in awe, which made me feel great. When you look at The Animal’s bike, you think Batista," Palumbo said when he unveiled the bikes to his friends. WWE featured the chopper on its website.

7 Owns: Pontiac Trans AM

Besides supercars, Batista loves low riders and muscle cars. One of the muscle cars that he swooned over was the Pontiac Trans AM. Batista tweeted about the Pontiac Trans AM, attempting to convince fans that he did not own his dream car.

He tweeted, " 1977 Pontiac Trans Am. My dream car! ... the Lunchboxes and stormtrooper helmet are probably a giveaway that it's mine!" Since Batista made a tremendous amount of money from wrestling and acting, he's in a position to afford any car that he dreams of owning. That's a good way to live life.

6 Owns: Mercedes CLS500

One of the cars that featured in Batista's interview with WWE was the Mercedes CLS 500. Considering Batista owned the SL500, he didn't mind giving the CLS500 to his daughter. It seems that children of celebrities experience several perks. One of those perks is driving a fancy car such as a Mercedes Benz.

The CLS class is a series of executive cars that Mercedes produced since 2004. Mercedes positioned the CLS class above the E-class but below the S-class. Batista's daughter was thrilled to receive such an extravagant gift.

5 Owns: Porsche Cayenne

Once the paychecks started rolling in from WWE, Batista could afford better cars. One of the cars that he upgraded to is the Porsche Cayenne. Since most of the cars in his collection were white, I wasn't surprised to discover that the Cayenne was the same color. Ferrari and Lamborghini saw the success that Porsche had with the Cayenne, so the manufacturer produced SUVs.

Ferrari plans to launch their SUV, Purosangue, in 2022 while Lamborghini had released the Urus in 2018. Since Batista has a wife and kids, he uses the Cayenne for family outings.

4 Owns: Golf Cart

During his interview with WWE, Batista gave fans a glimpse into his vehicle collection. While allowing the camera to get footage of his supercars and SUVs, Batista steered the attention to one of his slower rides, the golf cart. Being a generous man, Batista bought the golf car and gifted it to his daughter. Batista has admitted to being a loner, and it seems that his daughter followed in dad's footsteps.

"She doesn’t come out of the house too much. I want her to get out more, so I bought her a golf cart," said Batista. Inside the glove box is a stereo system that connects to an iPod.

3 Might Buy: Jaguar C-X75

When the producers of Bond wanted a villain who was broad, rugged and could intimidate James Bond, Batista was the obvious choice. Batista played Mr. Hinx in Spectre as the main henchman and the tertiary antagonist. Although Bond drives an Aston Martin, the Jaguar C-X75 made an appearance in the movie. Since Batista loves fast cars, he might consider purchasing the C-X75.

The car has an all wheel drive and produces 778 horsepower. Jaguar announced a limited production of the car and would manufacturer it with a forced induction petrol engine combined with an electric motor. The asking price for the car was around $1.15 million.

2 Might Buy: Land Rover Defender

I was glad to see that Jaguar used movies as a marketing strategy to penetrate the global market. Besides the C-X75 that Jaguar contributed to the chase scenes in Spectre, Land Rover also added the Defender. Chasing Bond on snow wouldn't be as intriguing without a big vehicle such as the Defender.

The four-wheel drive car has great off-road capability and provides a great performance. The British automaker kept the car in production from 1983 until 2016. It seems that the car's appearance in Spectre didn't convince consumers to purchase it.

1 Might Buy: Mercedes G-Wagon

Considering that Batista owns a Hummer and a Range Rover, the next best SUV to own would be the G-Wagon. Many celebrities have chosen the G-Wagon as their daily driver. Since Batista's collection consists mostly of white cars, I don't doubt that he would opt for a white G-Wagon.

The car provides adequate space for Batista's broad shoulders, and the engine pumps out a lot of power. Although the G-Wagon has been in production since 1979, the car garnered a large following in the last few years thanks to celebrity owners. Mercedes is thrilled about the unpaid endorsements.
