>Former WWE Champion Batista is set to return to WWE TV on tonight's RAW.
>As noted earlier, Batista has been in the Atlanta area filming a new project. Dave Meltzer noted on F4Wonline.com that The Animal is backstage at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, but he is being kept hidden from everyone else.
>There's been speculation on Batista returning to the WWE ring for a match with Triple H at WrestleMania 35. It was recently revealed that Batista was entertaining offers from WWE and AEW, but it looks like he may have went with WWE.
>Tonight's RAW will also feature the 70th birthday celebration for WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair and the return of Roman Reigns, who will give an update on his battle with leukemia. As we first exclusively reported this afternoon, Sting, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat and Shawn Michaels are at tonight's show for the celebration.
>It was recently revealed that Batista was entertaining offers from WWE and AEW, but it looks like he may have went with WWE. >entertaining offers >AEW I wonder how much they pay shills to insert them into everything
I actually thought WrestleMania couldn't get more boring
Luis Williams
Based but there is still 2 and half hours of boring ass NXT midgets having pointless ass matches.
Levi Fisher
>Finally have an opportunity to build new stars at this years Wrestlemania >Cart in Batista to eat the pin for the Trippple Man's yearly 30 minute match+entrances+outro
Ethan Ramirez
Yeah. Batista vs Bryan or Brock would have been better.
Matthew Roberts
I was looking forward to not having to sit through a marquee wank fast with Triple H this year. Was happy when he was injured.
Matthew Hall
Batista's been begging for a match with Hunter for years now.
Evan Smith
There is nothing to be gained by having Batista on the card, especially from a wrestling fans point of view. His last run was shit, and he's likely to be EVEN SLOWER and duller this time.
Hunter Fisher
"He's being kept backstage in seclusion, hidden away from all eyes" reports Meltzer, who apparently saw it through his crystal ball?
Nicholas Flores
Probably gonna start his feud with Gaytch during Ric's celebration
Brandon Bailey
Raw's finally looking like a somewhat good show
Henry Murphy
Nah, Kofi needs to face Bryan. Brock facing Seth makes sense in the wake of the cancer thing too. Also the women need to main event to justify what all of last year was about. Which would make Hhh and Batista the nostalgia match. Everything about this WrestleMania makes sense, I just can't be assed to care about it. Tell me when we find out who cenas facing desu.
Luke Sanders
great, HHH will tear his other pec carrying this shitter through something watchable
>Brock facing Seth makes sense in the wake of the cancer thing too If there's even a slight chance Roman is back within the year, Brock isn't eating a pin.
Adrian Miller
I WALK FOR MILES INSIDE THIS PIT OF TAAARRPS
A PLACE WHERE NOONE PAID FOR ME
I DRAW NO DIIIIIIMESSSS
Leo Hughes
>Nah, Kofi needs to face Bryan. Why does he need to face Bryan? People act like he deserves a title shot just because of the color of his skin. You racist incels are pathetic, maybe try to touch a naked woman some time and you won't be so worried about it.
Xavier Green
Batista vs HHH 14 years later is still unironically more interesting than anything else on the card.
Chase Torres
Isn't Batista too busy with trannys to come back to wrestling?
Elijah Stewart
probably because the new day is everything the new daniel bryan character loathes so it makes perfect sense from a storyline perspective, or cena.
Noah Stewart
Rock is also there
Grayson Foster
>Bootista
Camden Anderson
A lot of the old guys are at the arena today. It's for Ric Flair's birthday. Sting is fucking there.
Isaiah Turner
>Batista Major Name, err pick one mate, Batista is shit
John Hughes
source?
Jack Lopez
Rock & Batista vs HHH & Shawn Michaels. Hollywood vs The Direct to Video Boys
Brayden Brooks
>t. Gaytch
Colton Watson
ok this is shaping up to be the best raw in legitamately a decade.
Nolan Bailey
What the big dog isn’t a bigger enough name for the wwe
Aiden Garcia
Thanks for commenting, zoomer
Gabriel Rogers
He wants to be able to backtrack when he inevitably no-shows and other wrestlers claim he wasn't there. >H-he was just being hidden from everyone. But he was there!
>Roman returning >Batista backstage >Ric Flair celebration >based Bruce Prichard back as head of creative yeah tonight will be a big night
Jose Peterson
kevin nash as special guest referee
xpac and scott hall as enforcers
Carson Flores
>there will be a backstage scene where Alexa offers to rub oil onto EC3's abs >Otis from HM will walk buy, expose his belly and shout "ME NEXT!" >Alexa will wince in terror and stumble back only for Tucker to block her from behind with his belly exposed as well before he shouts, "NO! DO ME!" >Alexa freaks out and goes running leaving the three to stand there awkwardly until the next segment starts
Dominic Hall
DIMES
Angel Cook
I want him to be in the ring the whole show with no one acknowledging him
