Would Batista help the WWE currently?
 
Personally, I think Batista could help the WWE out right now. He has star power and brings something that the WWE main event lacks right now.

Would LOVE if he came back. Such a great heel.

James Steele 11-11-2013 11:12 PM

Seriously, if Cena does have a lengthy reign, I'd love it if Batista came back and they picked up the exact same storyline they had going into WM26. Fuck, that was an awesome character.

"help" is probably a bit strong given the team/show nature of the business, drawing power is pretty much irrelevant today but he'd certainly be a spectacle/has the aforementioned star power that creates an atmosphere. I'd definitely like to see it, love Big Dave, especially that heel character, was the very best thing in wrestling for those few months until he left

still one of the best things ever

James Steele 11-11-2013 11:21 PM

I feel like they are teasing Orton falling out of favor with The Authority and it'd be logical for Triple H to bring back Batista.

CSL 11-11-2013 11:24 PM

I think life is a bit too good for him atm, not being on the road, the film career picking up a bit, taking no bumps etc :-\ can hope tho

As a MASSIVE Batista mark I think Batista would pretty much ALWAYS help the WWE.

Star power? Please. He's Cena except he didn't sell any shirts.

James Steele 11-12-2013 12:07 AM

Batista was loved by all the fans who hated Cena.

Wake Up Call 11-13-2013 10:36 PM

I hate Cena's character, I hate Batista. Boring, bland, another Randy Orton in my opinion

ONLY for the last months of his career when he feuded with Cena and cut that cool promo.

Mr. Nerfect 11-14-2013 02:06 AM

Heel Batista was really great towards the end. It'd be interesting to see him return and be Triple H's favorite guy next to Randy Orton. Batista as World Heavyweight Champion while Orton holds the WWE Title would be an awesome visual. Evolution vs. John Cena & Daniel Bryan could easily be an impressive Elimination Chamber co-main event.

Nope. Batista was the only other true SUPERSTAR of that period besides Cena. All the non-whiny cunt smarks who disliked Cena (because they hit puberty) loved Batista.

That really isn't going to help things out in the long run, might just set them back even farther. While I like the idea that they are scouting the indys it does show how desperate they have become trying to find seasoned talent for the future of the company. You take away Cena and Orton right now and what you have left is a boatload of wrestlers the company honestly doesn't seem to have much faith in or know what to do with.

That's why you are THE PULSE. You could argue Shawn Michaels as well.

Curd 11-17-2013 01:59 PM

Dave, Randy, and Hunter could reform Evolution and put over The Shield or Wyatt Family, but probably not both or else that would diminish Evolution.

Batista loves the Simon System

Called it. Fuck you all.

I'm assuming he means that he called Batista's come back before it actually happened. If he thinks that his original statement that he'd be good for WWE is correct though I'd argue that he's sadly mistaken. Batista hasn't brought anything to the table that Orton didn't already bring.

Bad News Gertner 03-12-2014 02:35 AM

Batista is the best heel the company has had in the past decade.

el bobbo 03-12-2014 02:37 AM

Batista is great right now as the most hated guy in the company.

Very true, but that wasn't his purpose coming in. He's not selling merchandise nor is anyone buying a ticket or tuning in to see Batista by himself. James' original post stated that he thought Batista would be good for WWE. He is not. A heel is only worth his salt if he has a good face to defeat him, and to put the butts in the seats. Honestly Orton did the same job, even if he was a slight bit less entertaining. Batista isn't going to do anything businesswise for WWE.

WWE called an audible and put Daniel Bryan as their star for WM XXX.

Even if they fucked up hardcore, which they did, with Batista, he is still a money making heel. People do not want to see this guy win, yet the "Authority" shoves him down our throats.

Batista is hated and he needs to revel in the hate.

A face is only worth his salt if he has a heel to go up against. Batista is the perfect foil for Daniel Bryan.

Good looking, athletically built, trendy, corporate approved, Hollywood movie star vs. the guy that looks just like everyone else in the crowd.

Sell me a fucking ticket for this.

Bad News Gertner 03-12-2014 03:16 AM

I'm very excited for the ppv. The main event is going to be so interesting. A lot of ways to go with this.

el bobbo 03-12-2014 03:19 AM

Have Batista act like he did before he left in 2010. Be an arrogant Kanye West wannabe, and people will start to love to hate him. Have Orton come out of the shell of the authority a little bit and start to unleash his sadistic shit on Daniel Bryan. Keep Daniel Bryan as the voice of the people, the hijack crowd, the people who are not satisfied.

If this happens, we have a great WM main event on our hands. With the addition of the Brock vs. Taker match and the Cena vs. Wyatt match (with Hogan thrown in somewhere), a great tag team champ match, the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royale, the Shield implosion, the Real Americans implosion, this could be a very spectacular show.

James Steele 03-12-2014 03:20 AM

Batista will draw 70,000+ fans to buy a ticket to New Orleans and millions to watch WrestleMania XXX on PPV or on WWE Network.

And then Chris Pratt will persuade people to love him in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie.

Culminating in a Batista vs. Andy from "Parks and Rec" showdown for the ages.

James Steele 03-12-2014 05:45 AM

I don't watch Parks & Recreation because it is another of those shitty NBC shows that thinks it is clever and witty when it is just uppity horseshit.
