Batista was recently a guest on the Talk is Jericho podcast hosted by Chris Jericho. He spoke on a wide variety of topics from his current movie career (starring in Guardians in the Galaxy 2) and even some about his professional wrestling career.
Batista was asked if he misses wrestling, which he says he does. He only doesn’t miss WWE and the bullsh*t that comes along with it.
“Yeah, I miss it a lot. … There’s nothing like it, you know that. There’s just an adrenaline rush that goes along with it. What I don’t miss is the company, to be honest with you. I don’t miss WWE. I miss wrestling, I just don’t miss dealing with the company and its bullsh*t. Yeah it’s the bullsh*t man, it’s just too much bullsh*t.”
He also says that he has asked to come back to WWE in the past but was rejected. His idea is that he would feud with Triple H and it would serve as his retirement:
“I’ve asked, yeah, I’ve asked. Well, there’s… I’ve asked for what I want. I’ll tell you and I’ve talked to Hunter about it and I’ve talked to Vince about it. I said I would come back and run a whole program with Hunter. That’s the only thing I’m interested in doing. They’re just not interested in it, you know?”
If he would work with anybody else:
“At this point, no, because it would be my retirement thing. It would be what I would go out on. I would come back and I’d do a whole program and then I’d be done.”
