Batista..Honestly

Big.yes..strong yes..but
he cant entertain..in tag matches with HHH n flair.he would come in for about 1 min..and thats it
HHH vs batista had heat..mic work was good but he worked so well off HHH
Now..in a PPV match against JBL..its dull n slow
HHH got so bulky about 2 years ago he had to trim down and wanted all the wrestlers to do the same and bring in more"wrestling"techniques to bring it down
Fact is..Batista is to big and bulky to do anything of much in the ring.its sooo slow and nothing really happens.It was the same with Steiner.
I think that batista cant carry the smackdown show and that unless he can do more in the ring and longer..its just going to be boring

I disagree. Batista can have a good match, but he needs to be with someone who accentuates his positives and hides his flaws. The same is true of a lot of workers. I rate Batista above Undertaker, Big Show, and JBL as a worker. His match at Vengeance, and even his match at Wrestlemania - show that he can wrestle a damn entertaining much with the right opponent.

His next match will suck as well, since he's with two men who are even worse than him in the ring. The sooner they pit him against Benoit, Eddie, or Lesnar - the better

CWB said it all.

Batista wont have a great singles match with the likes of JBL and Undertaker. If there is a no holds bared stipulation it might be a differnt story but in singls matches he will only work with guys like the Angles, Triple Hs, Benoits etc. And thats the story for most Big guys, with the exception of Brock Lesnar.

Reason For Vince Being So Upset Last Night & Smackdown!

Reported by Ryan Clark on 07/25/2005

-One of the main reason's that Vince McMahon was so upset last night had to deal with Batista's work in the main event against JBL. Vince & WWE have had really high hopes that Batista would be able to carry the title and continue to draw fans, but they are now concerned about his in ring work. Batista's rough in-ring work didn't show up as much in his series of matches against Triple H, because Triple H was able to carry him so well, but last night it was obvious that Batista was having problems in his match with JBL.

It wasn't helped by being in the ring with JBL. The man has been carried to decent matches by Cena, Guerrero and co.
