Former WWE star Batista, who we noted earlier this week just signed with top Hollywood talent agency CAA, recently spoke with “What Culture” to promote his new movie “Final Score”, co-starring Pierce Brosnan.
During the interview, Batista was asked about a possible return to WWE and pro wrestling one day, and the former WWE Champion spoke very candidly about the subject.
“I have to say that it’s something I think about daily”, said Batista, h/t to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter for the transcription. “I miss it daily. I love it. I have a passion for wrestling. I feel that at the core of me, that’s just who I am. I’m a physical performer and I miss it every day.”
Batista went on to say that even with with his budding acting career taking flight, a WWE return is very much not out of the question.
“I think, one, it would have to be the right time, and two, it would have to be the right opponent. That’s pretty much it. And it would have to make sense. I think the last time I went back was with really good intentions and I felt like I wasn’t delivered what I was promised, and that was just creatively. So that would be it. I’d have to have a strong say of what I did and who I worked with. It would have to make sense as far as time. Not only do I have to be free, but I also have to factor in there is a risk that I would be injured. If I got injured, I would need some time to rehabilitate myself. So I always kind of factor those things in.”
