WWE: 6 Batista Predictions For 2014

6. There Will Be A Batista vs. Brock Lesnar Match

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aRgVuASG2k This is inevitable because when Lesnar was in WWE in his first run Batista wasn't a top guy yet. They're similar in stature in that they're big guys with huge builds and we know that's a trait that WWE management loves. The fact that they came up through OVW at around the same time to become legitimate main event level players gives them something in common as well. They also have gone the MMA route. Obviously Lesnar was much more successful in his MMA career as the UFC Heavyweight Champion while Batista only had one fight, but that's something they could mention if they feud as well. Since the expectation is that Batista will return as a babyface and Lesnar will remain a heel, the feud makes a lot of sense. Whether it happens while one of them holds the WWE World Heavyweight Championship or not, it's likely at some point in 2014. Of course one of the issues involved in the rivalry is that we don't know the exact details of Brock Lesnar's contract. How many PPVs will he work in 2014? Since he's at the Royal Rumble this year, which he wasn't a part of last year, perhaps that means he'll have more PPV appearances this year. We don't really know yet. "The Beast" Brock Lesnar vs. "The Animal" Batista has a lot of potential as a big feud in WWE. Expect to see it in 2014.
