Hulk Hogan might have a challenger to his title as wrestling's No. 1 sneakerhead.

Current WWE superstar Batista, and No.1 contender for the WWE Heavyweight Title, made an appearance last night on WWE Smackdown wearing a pair of the Nike Kobe 9 Elite "Masterpiece." Batista doing what he does best, engaged in some verbal sparing with fellow wrestler Daniel Bryan before he and his pal Kane put Bryan through the ringer. The Big Show would eventually come to Bryan's aid and end the shenanigans. While you might not care about the last two sentences, you'll at least know who's getting stomped out in the image below.  While some of you still question whether or not wrestling is real, know that Batista's sneaker game is official.

So Hulkster, I ask you this, "Whatchu gonna do, when the Bastista and his Kobes run wild on you?"
