— Batista’s team finished second behind James Marsden’s team at the triathlon in Miami today. The big question now is if he will show up at WrestleMania 28 tonight. Batista has been critical recently of WWE’s PG product so it would be surprising if he returned without a change in direction. He is much leaner since leaving WWE, so he does look different.
— Shaquille O’Neal tweeted today that he will be watching WrestleMania: “Looking forward to seeing my man @JohnCena smacketh down @therock today at #wrestlemania in Miami. That guy is Shaqqed. #” Shaq was of course rumored to be part of WrestleMania for awhile.
