I Hate Batista
 
I don't have a history on here, or in the real world, of hating anything. On the whole I try to find the best in everything. But I hate Batista.

Let me get this straight though, I don't hate Dave Batista the human being. I don't know Dave Batista the son, boyfriend, or human being, all I know and all I'm judging is Batista the wrestler, the entertainer, the and the performer.

...now what I just said is somewhat of a misnomer. You see because Batista isn't really a wrestler, he really isn't an entertainer, he's barley a superstar, and he's not exactly a performer.

Batista's in ring ability is about on par with what it was back in 2002... Well not exactly. He was better in 2002, holding the cauffer for Reverend D-Von is far better in-ring activity than anything he's done in the ring this year. He's consistantly been in the main even from January 2005 until right now. That's over four and a half years in the main event scene and in that period of time he's put on about 4, maybe 5 quality matches. And he seems perfectly content with that figure.

As far as being an "entertainer" is concerned he falls way short of the mark. His promos are... What's the word? Generic? Nah, Batista's promo's make generic promo look like a Mick Foley level promo of depth an neuance. Over the past seven years I've only ever been entertained by Batista much the same way I'm entrertained by watching a kid with downs syndrome trying to explain quantum physics.

I think the "performer" aspect is where I really have my problem, because "performer" implies some sort of effort, which to my knowledge Batista puts little to no effort into any aspect of his job. He wrestles almost the same exact way he did in 2002, and his promos are just as bland as they were when he was just some big guy that Ric Flair managed. Say what you will about John Cena but at least Cena has tried to become a better wrestler. And John Cena at least tries to be a poor mans Rock. Batista doesn't even put forth the effort to change or evolve or improve.

Where am I going with all of this?

Well, I'll tell you want I'm not doing....

I'm not boycotting the WWE.
I'm not wishing Batista ill.
I'm not demanding he turn heel.
I'm not saying this is anything more than an opinion.

What I'm just simply stating is that I've been a wrestling fan for over twenty years now. And I've seen some things. I've see David Arquette become a champion, I've seen necrophilia. I've seen Gene Snitsky. I've seen Vince Russo's booking. I've seen Ultimate Warrior promos. I've seen Scott Steiner promos. I've seen Hulk Hogan as Champion for an entire year where he wrestled only about a dozen times. I've seen some pretty questionable moves in wrestling, and some down right embarassing moments in wrestling, and I've always found a way to look on the bright side of it. And of all those things I never hated any of it.

But I hate Batista.

Funnily enough, he's appearing on sky sports news soon. :lol:

Impeccable 09-03-2009 05:25 AM

Oh, and he's been fucking Kelly Kelly too.

Londoner 09-03-2009 05:37 AM

I hate it when 2nd names are the same as the first.

CSL 09-03-2009 05:38 AM

You see that often do ya?

Juan 09-03-2009 05:40 AM

Nah, seeing the name 'Abdullah Abdullah' on the news recently reminded me of this annoyance.:mad::mad::mad::shifty:

BobBitchen 09-03-2009 08:27 AM

yeah? I witnesed the Finger Poke of Doom. Top that.











































oh and I hate Batista for the same reasons. He's still hurt right?

The Jayman 09-03-2009 10:15 AM

1. Punch
2. Kick
3. Clothesline
4. Spinebuster
5. Shake Ropes
6. Batista Bomb


I have successfully listed Batista's entire list of moves. It was tough and I had to do some searching but I finally did it....now I am going to have a smoke.

Sixx 09-03-2009 10:17 AM

Does shaking ropes count as a move?

done :y:

abec 09-03-2009 10:35 AM

Batista matches I just skip over kinda like a HHH match. Neither of these two clowns invoke anything entertaining to me anymore, even this bullshit DX reunion seems so fake. Its not DX without Sean, Chyna, Billy, and Road Dogg. HHH was never the leader of DX, it was always shawn in my book.

owenbrown 09-03-2009 11:05 AM

UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT B A START is also one of his moves :shifty:

Xero 09-03-2009 11:08 AM

OWEN! I get shit for entering the code and now YOU do it!?

:eek:

We're gonna pay for all this code enterting. :'(

owenbrown 09-03-2009 11:35 AM

sorry Xero :'(

Afterlife 09-03-2009 11:35 AM

I love that "shake ropes" wasn't even "his move". He took it from Warrior.

owenbrown 09-03-2009 11:36 AM

but I don't know the code to de-push Codetista :(

owenbrown 09-03-2009 11:37 AM

Afterlife may be on to something :y: lol

Testicle 09-03-2009 12:07 PM

I really just hate the dancing, other than that hes alright.

I didn't mean I witness that stuff live, I've just watched it.

I think I just needed to get that off my chest, I feel better now.

...until Batista returns.

Rammsteinmad 09-03-2009 01:03 PM

In find it hard to believe that Batista has ever done a kick.

He admitted it in an interview a while back. Apparently, Warrior was pissed.

He kicks the air during his trademark Ridiculous Shoulder Thrusts.

Kane Knight 09-03-2009 02:08 PM

I don't get the severe level of hate people have for him.

That said, I tend to skip his matches, too.

I think I hate John Cena's Endless Title Reign/Boring Face Run more than Batista's Infinite Title Shots, if only because Batista gets injured enough that he goes away for awhile. Cena is constantly boring.

The Jayman 09-03-2009 03:00 PM

Cena's theme song should be changed to "My time is up, Your time is now"

Anyways... Batista pretty much just rode the Evolution angle and HHH to the main event. Then he moved to Smackdown where he was like the only main event face for awhile and thus quickly became stale.

Afterlife 09-03-2009 04:18 PM

Stale, because he does the same thing over and over and over...

Cool King 09-03-2009 04:24 PM

And over and over and over...

Lock Jaw 09-03-2009 04:28 PM

Also, does anybody else notice that both Batista and Randy Orton ever since leaving Evolution have been getting shorter and shorter haircuts until they reach the point of baldness?

Think about it.

GD 09-03-2009 04:35 PM

You guys forgot to add spear in his move list. I am not sure but Warlord happens to be one his favorite wrestlers. Plus recently when he use to be on the turnbuckle
he tried to hold his belt like the Rock.

Cool King 09-03-2009 04:40 PM

I wouldn't classify Batista's "Spear" as a Spear.

It's looks more like a bungling tackle to be honest.

GD 09-03-2009 04:49 PM

The announcers called it a spear. Plus his spinebuster spear combo on Burke was pretty cool.

If you are talking about his entrance, that's when he enters the cheat code :'(

GD 09-03-2009 05:10 PM

Nobody can replicate that dance. Not even Dave himself.
