10 WWE Wrestlers Who Should NEVER Have Come Back
4. Batista
In interviews following his WrestleMania 35 snoozer with Triple H, Batista made clear how happy he was to finally get the type of WWE farewell he'd been pining for since he'd left the permanent grind in 2010.
It was easy to see why he was ultimately so satisfied with how the 2019 run went. Though the match was lost to the vanity of Triple H deep into the longest WrestleMania ever, it was at least exactly what he'd returned to do. Dangerous and menacing in his return attack against Ric Flair, 'The Animal' made himself a meme during the rest of the programme to such an extent that Hunter actively chased more of that sort of thing in the match itself.
Serious to silly and eventually slow, the whole thing at very least erased some memories of his atrocious 2014 run-that-never-should-have-been. There, the poor f*cker was forced to try and generate cheers when the audience only wanted the guy half his size, with the whole failing to such an extent that he had to turn heel against his wishes and better interests. The less said about it the better, and 2019's stint did at least update some of those conversations.
