In preparation for the event, Mike Jones of DC101 interviewed “The Animal” Batista. The two discussed a number of topics such as WrestleMania XXX, how quickly the WWE Universe turned on him after the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, and the vibe going around in the WWE locker room.

Batista stated the following regarding the backstage vibe in WWE:

“Being back in it and seeing that the guys are young and hungry, it gives me a great outlook on the business. And there’s a lot of talent in there, it’s stuff that I didn’t see before I actually came back. It’s good, it’s a good vibe.”

Editor’s Note 

Batista’s comments are certainty interesting, as there have been many reports that he is not well liked among those in the WWE locker room. Leading up to his return, he referred to WWE Superstars  as C-level stars in a B-level era, likely angering many talents.
