WWE: 10 Legitimate Backstage Fights

5. Batista vs Booker T

Batista You would think that the muscle man Dave Bautista would be able to handle Booker T - but apparently not. Booker is said to have kicked Batista's a** in 2006, and most of the WWE locker room just watched on and let it go for about 5 minutes. Booker and others in the WWE were said to be upset at the way Batista was conducting himself, acting as if he was above everyone. Booker had snapped at 'The Animal'. Speaking about the incident in 2012, Booker had this to say about the man who went on to leave WWE and compete in MMA - "It wasn't blown out of proportion. He took a pretty good beating. "The thing is, when you're in a fight, it's different from an MMA fight. That's the thing with me. I've fought my whole life. You don't just call a person out to a fight if you don't know their background, what they've been through, and how to test them. That was his mistake, and I think it was definitely a case of him underestimating me, and thinking he was the bigger guy. "For me fighting is in the blood, and it's something I grew up doing. Honestly though, I hope Batista does well (in MMA), even just for the business' sake."
