devastating news about BATISTA
 
I :heart: Batista

He should do what is best for (his) business tho.

Quote:


Due to the success of Guardians of the Galaxy, there was a lot of talk backstage at RAW that Batista may not be coming back to the WWE. He left WWE months ago to begin promoting the film and the plan was for him to come back once he was done. However, this was supposed to be around Summerslam and that didn't happen. The word is that Batista may not be back at all if he gets more movie offers.

Another reason he may not come back is that he would risk getting injured, which could hurt the chances of getting movie roles. He's already set to appear in the Guardians sequel and the Kickboxer remake, and it's likely that more movie roles will come after the success. He's no longer being looked at as an actor who appears in low budget independent films and is in a situation similar to The Rock was early in his career. The feeling is that movie studios may be less likely to hire him if he's actively wrestling.

Good. He should go film the sequel and come back in 2 years to promote it.

SlickyTrickyDamon 08-27-2014 03:26 PM

Good for him.

Ruien 08-27-2014 04:38 PM

Good for him, good for the us fans. You could tell he was not passionate about wrestling when he came back last time.

Cool King 08-27-2014 04:41 PM

If I hadn't already read this news on another site, I would have thought he had died or been paralyzed, judging by the thread title.

Emperor Smeat 08-27-2014 05:15 PM

Good for him if his movie career ends up being a success now.

Will miss the Bootista chants since those were hilarious.

Simple Fan 08-27-2014 06:04 PM

Man is was really hoping he would comeback and challenge Brock in a lions den match but that doesnt look likely now

Wishbone 08-27-2014 06:16 PM

Not a fan of his wrestling character or ability. I am a fan of Drax the Destroyer and Batista as Drax. This is a win-win for me... and I guess for him too. Yay for Batista!

DAMN iNATOR 08-29-2014 09:33 AM

Maybe now he'll have the time he needs to grow put his beard, dye it white and star in a horrible Smurfs movie sequel...:shifty:

Ol Dirty Dastard 08-29-2014 09:48 AM

He is a natural heel, and they brought him back attempting to make him default cookie cutter super face. Not his fault. He's a good performer.

Bad News Gertner 08-29-2014 10:11 AM

He's a tremendous heel

screech 08-29-2014 10:29 AM

His heel run before he left last time was great.

road doggy dogg 08-29-2014 11:11 AM

To be entirely truthful, I think guys like Batista are just what the WWE needs to get a "heel" over. A "meta heel", if you will.

All the stupid campy wrestling tropes of years past don't really get people in a seething rage anymore, the audiences are too smart. Why not have a heel who the smark-type fans detest? Remember, the main purpose of even having heels is to give the babyfaces someone to better, to overcome. So why not have someone like Batista, who most "knowledgeable fans" hate because of his lack of deserving his spot (Rumble, WM, etc), and then when someone like Ziggler beats him it's a HOLY SHIT! kinda moment and makes for a feel-good moment.

idk. THE DEACON is the best. RKO bitches

el bobbo 08-29-2014 11:35 PM

I actually saw this movie twice. Guardians of the Galaxy looks like it's going to be a HUGE franchise tied in with the Marvel Universe. Good for him, he's getting enormous paydays, getting Hollywood glitz, and not having to put his body on the line.

I am going to miss all of the shit talking. #Bootista #Bluetista

Damian Rey 08-30-2014 12:20 AM

Good for him. He can anyways come back as a surprise guest to hit a power bomb every now and then. Get like he seemed out of place when he can back. Don't know why.

XL 08-30-2014 03:53 PM

Something to do with the fact that they forced a natural heel into a face role and handed him the position that the fans believed somebody else (Bryan) deserved, leading to an incredible backlash against him which necessitated a heel turn only weeks into his return?

Basically, nothing went right with Batista's latest run.

Still, more enjoyable than RVD's last two returns.

Destor 08-30-2014 03:56 PM

I only want him back if he comes as Drax

Droford 08-30-2014 04:00 PM

I would pay money to see a movie based on his theme where he's walking for miles in a pit of danger

From everything I've seen outside of the actual shows since Batista came back, he's a cool dude that loves the business and hates a lot of the stupid decisions the company's made--(SPOILER: It's not them making him job and not giving him a title).

Next WM, have Batista enter to this song:

<object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/s3Q80mk7bxE?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/s3Q80mk7bxE?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

And rig up like a big Groot in a pot to slide down the ramp behind him, and it is dancing. Except for when Batista looks behind him.

Sixx 08-30-2014 07:07 PM

Hope he keeps getting good movie roles after Guardians of the Galaxy. Not some shit like Steve Austin or whatever.

Sixx 08-30-2014 07:09 PM

Wow, what the fuck?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3082898/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_1

Batista as Tong Po in the Kickboxer remake? The fuck is that?

And in the starring role: a guy who did stunts for Smurfs 2.

Damian Rey 08-30-2014 07:26 PM

Reality is Batista has a very particular look and, just like the Rock, he'll be type casted based on that. So he's gonna be stuck doing shit movies like a kick boxer remake instead of something more challenging or less obvious.

Sadly, this could be true.

But he could keep getting typecasted in awesome movies as well (see: Guardians of the Galaxy).

Batista is leaving to do movies.

You can't really hope Hogan leaves to do movies as well.

Bad joke already made in post #13.

DAMN iNATOR 08-31-2014 11:13 AM

Besides what else do you expect from the guy whose idea of a wave goodbye to wrestling fans is that of a beauty queen?

I wasn't joking, moron. The leading guy in the Kickboxer remake DID do stunts for Smurfs 2.

Sixx 08-31-2014 11:43 AM

Also, what the fuck does your dumbass "joke" about Batista playing Papa Smurf have to do with this? Or anything for that matter?

Simple Fan 08-31-2014 08:56 PM

He would be Deacon Smurf

SlickyTrickyDamon 09-01-2014 01:47 AM

Smurfista.

Bleh. The original Tong Po was fucking ruthless. Pretty much all of the sequels were awful (needs moar Van Damme) I can't see Batista living up to it, especially if it is a remake of the first one.
