In an interview with Adam Clery of WhatCulture, the ‘Animal’ Batista was asked what the circumstances would have to be for him to make his return to a WWE ring. The Guardians of the Galaxy star responded with:
“I think, one, it would have to be the right time, and two, it would have to be the right opponent. That’s pretty much it, and it would have to make sense, yeah, I think the last time I went back was with really good intentions and I felt like I wasn’t delivered what I was promised and that was just creatively. So, that would be it, I’d have to have a strong say of what I did and who I worked with. It would have to make sense as far as time.
“Not only do I have to be free, but I also have to factor in there is a risk that I would be injured. If I got injured I would need some time to rehabilitate myself, so I always kind of factor those things in.”
Dave also discussed his creative frustrations during his 2013-14 run, as well as his love for the squared-circle.
The former WWE Champion is currently working on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, but it certainly seems he is open to a return to WWE in the near future.
