Batista rose to fame while being a part of Triple H's stable, Evolution, in the early to mid-2000s. Dubbed as The Animal, Batista went on to turn on Triple H and became one of the biggest WWE Superstars of the time, along with John Cena and Randy Orton. He soon made his way to Hollywood and landed several roles, before getting a major break in Guardians of the Galaxy.

Batista got married to Sarah Jade, a pole dancer who has competed on the national level. In the 2012 USPDF Amateur Nationals, Jade secured the second spot and was crowned Miss Pole Dance America in 2016. Jade has won the Ms. Athletic crown at Florida Pole Fitness Championship, in 2012 and 2013.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
