WE has released a new WWE Network clip from Batista – The Animal Unleashed, showing Batista discussing why he returned to the WWE in 2014. You can check out the video below. Speaking on why he came, back Batista stated the following:
“The biggest reason for me to come back, I’ve always wanted to be undisputed heavyweight champ. After I became heavyweight champ multiple times, where do I go from here? There’s not many places you can being at the top, but I could take that next step up and be that undisputed heavyweight champ. That was the only place to go, and it’s been my goal for years and years. I reached out, talked to a couple people and this was kind of the kickoff. This is where it all starts, the Royal Rumble.”
