5 reasons why Batista returned on WWE RAW

#2. To officially retire

With his stock in Hollywood rising by the day with his success in the Marvel Franchise, it's obvious that Batista doesn't have too much left for him in the ring. Naturally, his priority is his Hollywood career, and apart from just the fact that his schedule there will keep him too busy from making occasional returns, the biggest thing that could block him from wrestling is the insurance companies that he deals with.

If he gets injured at WrestleMania in his match against Triple H, then you can be certain that Batista will not get back inside the ring again. It's exactly what happened to The Rock six years ago.

Moreover, Batista probably feels like he wants to go out on his own terms, and that happens to be putting over his greatest career rival. It'll also be a great way to officially conclude a storyline that seemingly ended 14 years prior.
