Batista WWE Return Pitched

A WWE name has pitched an idea for the return of Batista, who hasn’t wrestled since WrestleMania 35 in April 2019.

With only four dates left and his final match coming up on December 13, there has been a lot of talk regarding who could be the last opponent of John Cena.

WWE PLE panelist and Evolve announcer Peter Rosenberg has suggested an interesting name for that role – Batista.

Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Rosenberg said:

“Because we’ve talked about all the people who make sense, and a name that just hasn’t gotten mentioned very much, it’s super unlikely, and I’m probably reaching here, but when you think about what they represented a certain time, the last Saturday Night’s Main Event happens to be in DC, if you hear this (plays Batista’s theme).

“I think he meant that (Batista saying he’s retired), and I respect that. I personally as a fan… and who cares what we think? It’s about what he wants in his life.

“But I’m selfish, and I’m a fan. I’m not satisfied with the ending. I would love to see Batista one more time. I think there’s more. I just think there’s one more story to be told.”

Batista had what was billed as his retirement match at Mania 35 in 2019, losing to Triple H.

The last time he faced Cena was during their 2010 feud over the WWE Championship, which included a match at WrestleMania 26.

Reports have indicated that the planned final opponent for John Cena is GUNTHER.
