After his last run, Batista should stick with movies.

Batista had it all. He had the look, the size, the presence and at one time, he had a tremendous amount of support from the WWE Universe. But, in recent years, fans have grown very tired with The Animal.

When Batista returned in 2013, WWE officials booked him as a babyface, hoping and expecting the fans to embrace his return. At first, many fans stood in his corner, but something happened shortly after and everything changed. When he entered the Royal Rumble match as the 28th entrant and then went on to win the match, fans quickly changed his name from Batista to BOO-tista.

For the remainder of his time with the company, Batista carried an enormous chip on his shoulder, all the way until his departure. This is something fans never got over and to this very day, they still remember it.

Batista had his time in the WWE spotlight. But, his ship has since sailed and a return would be a huge mistake by WWE officials. Batista is better off now just staying in Hollywood.
