Jack Swagger MMA Training With Former WWE Champion

Jack Swagger really is a man with a lot of courage. Not only did he not look back after his WWE departure, but he’s taking on the world in a big way by signing with Bellator to fight in the world of Mixed Martial Arts. He’s been very busy training because a lot is riding on his first fight and he plans on making a big impression.

The Real American recently had a rather intense training session and by the look on his face, it was a pretty big one. I say it was a big one because Batista was there to join in on the fun and anything with The Animal attached to it seems even bigger.

Although the Guardians Of The Galaxy franchise and all his other film commitments might keep him rather busy, Batista still found the time to train with Swagger as he told him to “give em hell kid.”

It’s not every day when you see two former WWE Champions training for MMA together. But this is exactly what this photo shows. We just hope Swagger will be ready for his big Bellator debut when the time comes because, after CM Punk’s performance against Mickey Gall at UFC 203, the pro wrestling world really needs someone to come in and have a better showing in MMA for the pro wrestling business’ sake.

Given the right opponents and training, Jack Swagger might be a name that means a lot to MMA in a very short time.

But Swagger will probably do pretty well, to be honest. He’s not only a big hoss in size, but has a lot of specialized training as well. With training partners like Batista, it might only be a matter of time before Swagger’s making headlines as a star in MMA as well.
