WATCH: Batista Demands a WrestleMania Match Against Triple H

Give him what he wants. WWE has posted a new video to its YouTube channel in which they show the full segment in which Batista demands a WrestleMania match against Triple H at WrestleMania 35.

You can see the video in its entirety below:

From WWE.com:

For all Triple H’s gravitas and larger-than-life mystique, the 14-time World Champion found himself at an odd crossroads during his face-to-face with Batista — their first encounter since The Animal savaged Ric Flair two weeks ago — as none of his usual taunts seemed to faze his former running mate. Commands to “be a man” and fight him? Nope. Threats to Big Dave’s security detail? Nothing. Even an insult to Batista’s fashion sense didn’t find purchase; against all odds, Batista seemed to have done what he promised and actually bent the situation to his will by refusing to leave until The Game gave him what he wanted.

What he wanted, as it turned out, was a match at WrestleMania against the man he said continuously underestimated and undervalued him throughout his career. That’s why he ambushed “The Nature Boy,” and that’s all he’s been asking for: A chance to end both his career, and The Game’s, on his own terms. If The King of Kings was somewhat outplayed by his rival, however, he still got the last word by declaring the match would be No Holds Barred. The stipulation is fitting: Whatever line there was in this rivalry has long since been crossed. Might as well make it official.

 

Editor’s Opinion:

I remember this segment and how awesome it was to see Batista back on RAW for the first time in years. The nostalgia was running wild during this time and you knew it was going to lead to something great at WrestleMania. Little did we know that that would end up being his retirement match!
