Video: Batista’s Favorite SmackDown Live Moments

The Animal has memories. We’re coming up on the 1000th episode of SmackDown Live and that means we’ll be seeing a lot of old stars come back. There are already several set up for the show, but one of the most obvious inclusions was Batista. While he’ll be there as part of Evolution, Batista was a huge part of SmackDown Live and it only makes sense to have him there. It might make you wonder what he’s thinking about such a historic show?

Unleashed.

Batista on his favorite SmackDown memories

WWE has released a new video with Batista talking about his favorite moments on SmackDown Live. This is a little different than the WWE’s regular countdowns as it’s more a mini interview with Batista where he talks about a few different moments in varying degrees of depth. Batista wrestled on SmackDown from 2005-2008, winning two World Heavyweight Championships in the process.

Opinion: There’s something about Batista that makes it seem he really did love his time in WWE. While the bigger moments of his career came during his time on Monday Night Raw, there are several times on SmackDown Live that deserve recognition of their own. The ones he picked were certainly important ones and things that clearly mattered both to Batista himself and his career.

Which of these moments was your favorite? What else did you enjoy from Batista’s run on the show? Let us know in the comments below.
