WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO GET BATISTA BACK IN A WWE RING?

As part of his media tour to promote his role in the new James Bond film "Spectre", which opens in theaters this week, former WWE champion Dave Bautista was interviewed in Mexico by WSVN-TV.

On a potential WWE return, Batista said that he wouldn't want big money or a limited schedule. He said that for WWE to get him to return, they have to book him on house shows so he can just wrestle and interact with the audience, not have to deal with the WWE writers and creative team.

In following up his issues with creative, which Batista referred to as "Butting heads", he noted that when he came back for his last run, he told WWE to make him a heel because he's a terrible babyface but WWE wouldn't listen. Then, the fans rejected him and it became a "state of confusion" where the creative team sent him out to say the same "crap" every week.
