This is kinda derived off of LC's HHH vs Batista suggestion.
Anyway, the way Dave gets huge pops and has a sort of cultlike following really reminds me of DDP.
I mean, lets look at the similarities:
- Both guys debuted as wrestlers relatively late in age, but had lots of experience before.
- Both have that "it" factor that really attracts fans.
- Both seem to be really respectable people in real life and good men.
- Both characters are incredibly intriguing as faces and heels... more than their peers.
- DDP has a finisher he pulls out of nowhere and Batista.... okay, we'll work on that.
Anyway, even though Batista is 35, it think he can still put in another ten years, conceivably. And he's a nice guy in real life, so I think he deserves a main even push and such. Really, he could be the WWE's Diamond Dallas Page in terms of how he attracts a huge, devoted, constantly marking out following.
Discuss. :)
I certainly see your points. Batista has really impressed me particularly in this last year and I think that he could maybe still win the title one day. I wouldn't bet on it but I think he has a shot at being champ one day.

Batista will win the World Title in the future no doubt about that. But for now he's still in the IC title range,

I always fucking mark out during battle Royals when Batista looks arcoss the ring and see like Kane or Gene Snitski and go bezerk on their ass. Batista is the best power wrestler bar none.

Ive always liked Batista and i must say being with Evolution has done him good.
He definatly seems to have developed abit more charisma aswell.
Like i said before i definatly think he deserves atleast an IC title reign.

He's also on the ads for CellTech and NitroTech, so the WWE looks to be high on him.

I remember that moment in the battle royal which I think was to determine the number one contender at Bad Blodd. Kane was chokeslamming everyone in sight and the crowd was going crazy and there is only one guy left. That being Batista and then a sense of anticipation comes over the crowd as the two face off. I thought that was pretty cool.

Yeah, same here :y: It's like a "HERE WE GO" kind of moment.
And yeah, I can see your points on the DDP/Batista similarities. And actually, Batista can kind if hit his Batista Bomb out of nowhere. He just has to catch them in mid-air and then BOOM. Def not as out of nowhere as DDP though.

Yeah, I agree.
Though he still kinda sucks, but I mark out for him regardless. I wouldn't really care if he won the title, because mammoths can be enjoyable.

If they swicthed Batista's finisher to the Spinebuster it could totally become a somewhat out of nowhere move.

You sure you want to plant this idea in the heads of the WWE writers? Be careful what you say, cause word eventually gets around. Pretty soon Batista will be getting his ass beat down in less than a minute by ex-crack whores.

That would be if the writers actually read this site :roll:
:shifty:
Anyways though, when Batista did the Spinebusters left and right in the battle royal and then starting eliminating people left and right, I was marking out like how I used too.
Dave Batista :love:
