Jack Swagger Accidentally Bruises Dave Batista's Eye During MMA Training

In preparation for his debut in Bellator MMA in 2018, former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger has been training with fellow WWE alumni and six-time World Champion Dave Batista. As many fans are aware, Batista has a deep interest in mixed martial arts and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He had one successful MMA fight back in October of 2012 and was officially recognized as a Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in early 2014.

Jack Swagger comes from a solid amateur wrestling background, as he was an All-American college wrestler at the University of Oklahoma.

Batista posted the following photo on Instagram, which shows a bruised eye that he received from Swagger during one of their training sessions:
