Batista and Brock Lesnar were both parts of a batch of new blood that debuted back in the summer of 2002, along with future Hall of Famers like John Cena and Randy Orton.

Since then, the two behemoths have been able to carve a niche for themselves, both in the WWE as well as outside the company.
Now that Batista is back to battle Triple H at Mania, let him stay for a while, and give us the match we have been clamouring for since an eternity. This match is a first ballot contender for main-eventing the grandest stage of them all, but Summerslam or Survivor Series could do too. Not booking the match before Batista's exit would be criminal on WWE's part.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. 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.
