My only concern with Batista turning face, is that the WWE will push him wrong.

Instead of making him a "dominant" big man type guy, the WWE will make him look too soft and symPATHETIC (i.e. like they did with Kane back in 1999).

If the WWE have plans to turn Batista face, I can see them (idiotically) trying to get the fans to feel "sorry" for Batista (like a whipped dog) as he takes verbal abuse from Triple H.

In other words - they'll make him look VULNERABLE.

If Batista can act like a "badass" face (maybe even Ken Shamrock-like), then I think that he can go 'over' huge.


Batista vs. Triple H is also good from a marketing standpoint (as I said earlier), since its never been done before.

Furthermore - Batista is practically the ONLY guy on Raw (of significance) that Triple H has not defeated yet.


If the WWE want to go this route with Batista however, then I highly reccommend that they make the turn within the next few weeks. That way -Batista will get plenty of build up before Wrestlemania......and his face push won't be so "rushed".
