Dave Bautista has officially retired from the WWE and put his wrestling days behind him. Of course, this doesn't mean fans have stopped fantasizing about his return to the ring. In fact, some thought that he was teasing a comeback with a recent photo.

Batista's recent post on Twitter shows him sporting a full beard and a dark-ish aesthetic reminiscent of The Undertaker.

Because of this, some speculated that Bautista was teasing his appearance at WrestleMania 39. A fun theory is he'll appear at a random RAW or SmackDown episode to lay the law on Dominic Mysterio, who's been very disrespectful to his father and Bautista's close friend, in the ring and in real life. This probably won't happen and the photo is probably just Bautista celebrating St. Patrick's Day.

Bautista is close to a decade removed from his heyday in the WWE where he was one of the wrestling promotion's biggest draws. He officially retired following his match against Triple H at WrestleMania 35 and he's since pursued acting full-time.

In addition to his now-iconic role as Drax the Destroyer in the MCU's Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy, Bautista has starred in several more films since like Blade Runner 2049, Dune, Army of the Dead, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery, and Knock at the Cabin.
