Rock might have another match in him, and so might Taker. Taker is also a super Kayfabe guy who might not want it, at least not yet. If you need a big name, and a guy who isn't coming back, Big Dave makes sense, especially since he is becoming a legit star

If he's willing to come back for the HOF, he'd probably be down to come back for another match. In fact, I think he probably will. At the very least it's as likely, if not more likely, as Rock or Taker coming back for another match.

He's been openly critical of wwe since he left. Something must have changed if this is the case, but I don't see it. He was particularly pissed off at the Titus O'neil suspension if I recall correctly.

In a side note, I think its crazy and super cool that he is a legit big name actor now... he's the last guy I would think would be in major movies. But he's been great. He was hilarious as fuck in Guardians 2.

I don't have a problem with Batista going in, but the timing seems weird. Really feels like it is The Undertaker's spot. Maybe Taker wants to take more time to let his retirement sink in or whatever? Eh, I guess Batista is probably comfortable with his film career that he feels like he will never have to wrestle full-time again.

Timing seems right for Batista since playing Drax will probably be the "peak" of his Hollywood career/public image. So put him in now and capitalize on the publicity. Don't wait until people don't care about him anymore.

Retired former World Champs. They follow their own canon with significance.
