8 Major WWE Superstars Who Hated Batista
Sometimes, The Animal truly does "walk alone."
As a performer, Batista is unfairly maligned by the hardcore wrestling fan community. His most recent stint in 2014, despite being plagued by several speedbumps in the initial weeks, ended up being one of the most unselfish runs of any top guy in recent memory. He lost virtually every significant match he appeared in other than the Royal Rumble and did his utmost to put new stars over. Dave has struggled with a reputation of being a guy that others have a difficult time getting along with. In the early years of his main event push he had quite a few run-ins with his colleagues, and at one point was criticized as only caring about girls and cars (he would have made a great member of Strike Force, then!). In short, the muscular movie star was not well-liked by some members of the WWE locker room. Hell, even some other company's locker rooms didn't like him! What is it about Batista that continuously put him in the center of conflict? You can chalk it up to several things, ego and his competitive nature chief among them. While you dont hear too much negativity about the big guy nowadays, lets take a look at some of his past disputes and delve into wrestlers who had a serious beef with the man who took Hollywood by storm as Drax in Guardians of the Galaxy.
