The Animal was asked by a fan on Twitter if he had watched WrestleMania 33, which he said he did, but he was given a hilarious response by Shane-O-Mac when he gave The Boss' son his evaluation of his match.
He tweeted: "I watched my homie @shanemcmahon match and gave him my full critique. Of which he replied... #Bluetista 😖"
In case you didn't know, Bluetista is referring to Batista's last run with the WWE back in 2014. During that time when he was siding with Triple H and Randy Orton as part of the Evolution against The Shield, The Animal wore blue wrestling gear, which was subject to much abuse from the WWE universe.
It's certainly safe to say if Batista is to make a return to the WWE again, he won't be bringing the blue wrestling gear with him. He quit the WWE during his last run with the company due to creative disagreements but was asked to appear at WrestleMania 32 in 2016, but he rejected this offer.
Batista is unlikely to come back to the WWE anytime soon because he isn't needed and he is happy where he is with his position in Hollywood right now, being a major part in the Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy franchise.
Still, his connection with people that work there is strong, meaning a return can't be completely ruled out. Being such a big figure in WWE's history in the 2000s, he's bound to return for at least one more match.
Shane McMahon certainly would be the perfect opponent for him, and it would be a match many fans would love to see, but The Animal has been putting guys over, so maybe he'll give one of the more younger superstars a win over him on his way out.
