| WWE.com featured an interview with Batista to promote his new WWE DVD and the forthcoming "Guardians of The Galaxy" film, discussing a number of topics. Most interesting was Batista commenting on the fans rejecting him upon his return, including being booed at the Royal Rumble when he won over Roman Reigns (who was last man out) and Daniel Bryan (who was never booked in the match as his original Wrestlemania trajectory was for a match against Sheamus).
Batista commented, " It was weird. It wasn’t like a normal response. It was almost like a personal attack. It had to do with factors that were not in my control, factors and things that were going on in the company with other people, stuff that really had nothing to do with me. To me, it was a little frustrating, a little confusing, and, you know, I don’t want to say I completely took it personal, but I did somewhat."
That negative reaction continued to be fueled when CM Punk walked out of WWE the next day with TMZ.com placing the blame on the fact that Batista, not Punk, was planned to be in the main event. While there were obvious additional factors that led to the Punk walk-out, including physical and mental burnout, the Scarlet Letter of blame was now burned onto Batista.
Batista commented about the fans being down on him being back in that top position leading to Wrestlemania 30, noting, "What I heard over and over was, “Batista doesn’t deserve this,” and that’s what I took personally, because it’s like they forgot about my 10 years of pain and suffering and sacrifice. When I left the company, I gave plenty of notice, I left the right way, I did everything right. And also, my very last match, I broke my back. So I literally broke my back for the fans. And for me to come back and for them to say that I didn’t deserve the spot that I was being put in? For one thing, I didn’t ask for that spot. And here’s my thing with wrestling, and I tell this to everybody: If you get an opportunity, take the opportunity, and if you pass it up, you’re a fool. And if you hate on a guy just because he’s taking advantage of an opportunity that’s given to him, then you’re an idiot."
It was noted that while he quit on camera, he is still with the company and left, as we noted before his return, to handle commitments for "Guardians" which he noted was his way to finally get a big Hollywood role and scratch his acting itch after fighting to build his name in that world.
Batista also discusses a number of other topics, including the return of Evolution coming out of the fans rejecting him, Daniel Brian. Dolph Ziggler, Bluetista chants for his last match and more. |

| "Batista really regained his form toward the end of his run. Doubt he comes back with much rust, if any. Batista/Lesnar has to be on the docket. I'd guess Wrestlemania, but I could see it headlining Summerslam. As far as the title goes... I don't see it in his future." - Me |

| ^^^ Proof that you have to agree with the WWE whether you want to or not. If you rebel, you're an idiot
"Batista commented, " It was weird. It wasn’t like a normal response. It was almost like a personal attack. It had to do with factors that were not in my control, factors and things that were going on in the company with other people, stuff that really had nothing to do with me"
Im having a hardtime believing that Batista had nothing to do with his push towards the WWE title. He knew going in he was getting a Rumble and title push, it's too late to save face, Dave. |

| That's because you're an idiot that believes the wrestlers can book their own storylines. ____________________ . Favorite Current Wrestlers:1. Sasha Banks 2. Becky Lynch 3. 4. 5. Favorite All-Time Wrestlers:Your dad |

| Dave came in at a wrong time and the wrong place.People wanted to See Daniel Bryan win the Royal Rumble and not him. If it was anyone else it would be the same. Kurt Angel, Sting, anyone in Dave's spot would have been treated the same. Also the fact he was rusty as fuck didn't help. Vince had this wild hair up his ass that Dave was going to be his white knight, still living in his little bubble. He should have known better, but it's Vince. However Dave was the one who did the job for Daniel Bryan, He was the one who did the Job for Shield at Extreme Rules and was the first one out at Payback. So the shit fans are giving it's stupid. Hell Evolution should have won at Fucking Extreme Rules. |

| I don't have anything against Batista for his most recent run. I wasn't happy to see him win the Rumble, but it's silly to blame him for that.
That being said, it's really fun to hate on Batista. That's why I like him being heel, it fits him well (he's just so douchey), and we get to make fun of stupid shit like the color of his ring gear. He's great in his current role, though I still can't call myself a fan of his. |
