10 Things That Are Inevitable Before WWE WrestleMania 31

7. Batista Returns As A Babyface

Batista's set to return to WWE soon because the promotion for Guardians of the Galaxy is over now. When he showed up in January he was booked as a face. It didn't work, so he turned heel. He seemed to be more comfortable in that role. Now that he's in a hit movie, things might be different. It's weird that WWE hasn't put over the success of Batista's Guardians of the Galaxy film. I saw the movie last week and Batista did a great job in it. He was very entertaining as Drax. I'm not even a comic book fan, yet I enjoyed it a lot because of how funny it was at times too. Maybe it's because WWE had nothing to do with the production of the film and in storyline Batista quit, but they really should have done more than posting an interview on WWE.com. Mention it on TV at least. A lot of it will depend on how he's presented. If he feuds with a guy like Rusev then Batista would get cheered right away. That's the smart way to do it. It seems unlikely that he'll return as a heel after starring in a blockbuster film, so that face turn is inevitable now.
