BATISTA ON SMALLVILLE

WWE wrestler Batista will play a villian from the Phantom Zone in The CW's Smallville, The ********* has learned.

Batista's appearance will be in the season's ninth episode, which will likely air during the November sweeps.

A one-time "world champion" in the WWE, Batista is nicknamed The Animal and is one of the most popular wrestlers in The CW's -- and formerly UPN's -- Friday Night Smackdown.

i wonder who he'll play. Maybe Brenn-Ir?

Spoiler

According to some wrestling websites, Batista will be playing a character from the Phantom Zone. Darn. We were hoping he'd play Lobo!

How about Batis-Ta?

 

[COMPO]

LOL. Very original.

I wonder if Tom will get Batista-Bombed. t:

 

[Colossal Spoons]

That'd make my day.

 

[Bad Superman]

I just hope, they wrote a good fighting sequence.

 

[heliorei]

I don't know anything about wrestling but I had high hopes for this Batista guy to play Lobo.

maybe in this reality, Lobo is in the Phantom Zone and escapes....wishful thinking.

Just because the character is in the Phantom Zone, that doesn't mean he's Kryptonian: in some versions, the Phantom Zone had all kind of prisioners, not just kryptonians.

True. Smallville has changed a few things and readapted them from the Superman universe. Remember Mxyzptlk?

I still think its goin to be doomsday because i believ in the mythos doomsday dies and comes back to life stronger every time he dies. So it would make scence for clark to fight a weaker version of Doomsday and defeat him even though doomsday eventually kills superman in the comics


Plus Ratings, the ratings will help make the decision of who he plays

I'm not into comic book geekness, but I think I would geek out about that one.

Makes sense to me. I always thought that they could foreshadow the death thing like in EverAfter but instead of the cape flying in to the infinite, they could have just shown a spiky fist punching the camera or something...
Plus, like the movie Jor-El says all mindless aberrations go to the PZ.

 

[boydston_14]

Hopefully like someone said earlier Batista is Doomsday or Lobo come out of the PZ, having things changed up for Smallville isn't so far-fetched anyways.....

 

[Jedi Master]

wait...all they said was "he was a someone from the phantom zone".... maybe it could be lobo who escaped from the phantom zone... they didnt mention any names or anything, n this guy must be one of jor-els enemies to be sent into the phantom zone... probably someone good, like Parasite? even tho jor-el never met him, but smallville changed things around, ; ) so why not have parasite here, n drain all of clarks powers n then shows over

That wouldn't work. When Doomsday dies and returns to life stronger, he also returns stronger to whatever immuned to him. So Clark wouldn't be able to kill him a second time.

Hum...you're probably right but doesn't that apply to Clark as well ? He doesn't even know how powerful he'll become, meaning he's only using part of his potential...
When they will meet in that legendary encounter both will be more powerful.

UPDATE:

acording to Prowrestling.com Dave Batista will play a villian from the PZ in his visit to Smallville

--The role Batista will be playing on the Smallville series is a villain from the Phantom Zone. He'll be in the ninth episode of this season, airing during the November sweeps week.

Yeah, we've heard.

If you look at Kristin Veitch's latest blurb, I think Kal8 posted it in the Season 6 thread. It would appear that as Clark battles each of these villains he will need to step up his game each time, making him more and more powerful.

So you might be onto something.
