Would Daniel bryan vs Batista work for wm35?

[Zen411]

5 years ago, Batista brought back as a face winning the rumble and booed out of the building for not being Daniel bryan in addition to the generic face return. Ended up facing bryan at mania with Orton and losing to set the stage for bryans big win.

Now that bryan is back and a heel and they are teasing a Batista mania match, would this make sense? The Batista vs hhh match is possibly not able to happen due to injury. Would people cheer Batista this time against the New Daniel bryan?

I just don’t want any fifty year olds on the card

Wouldn't hate it, I'd prefer to see Finn go to SD and face Bryan though.

Part of the build could be Batista trying to seduce Brie(though that would make Bryan a face again). Then Batista does the next best thing and nails Nikki. Sets up Bryan vs. Batista and Nikki vs. Brie(the match the world has been waiting for) at Mania. John Cena and his bald spot can ref both matches.

A 40 year old man is losing his hair, LOL.

I'd honestly cringe. But I'd prefer WWE canon end at Wrestlemania 30 at this point.

Batista has been in some of the highest grossing movies of the last 5 years. If he comes back, it has to be as MEGA Douchetista, the most gloriously arrogant man in the history of pro wrestling.

Like when he enters the building, Curt Hawkins goes blind from directly looking at him because Batista's star is too bright.

[fw91]

no it wouldn't work. Willing to believe that there are many women out there who'd say that Big Dave is anything but impotent.

[thegame415]

I think not.

[Pushed to the Moon]

Depends. How big is Batista's...carbon footprint?

["Gizzark" Mike Wronglevenay]

No. The heat on Batista was only around at the time. This angle has no juice now, and it only makes sense for them to feud if you acknowledge storyline plans because Bryan wasn't even in the Rumble.

I'm guessing this is directed at wanting HHH off the show, however FYI in 4 days Batista enters this same category as well....

I want him to be carried in on a throne like King Haku.

Batista's match is with HHH at this point, and that is it. Anything else, they'll handcuff him enough where he won't be nearly as effective.

No I don’t want Batista anyway

[abjordans]

I would be down for this. Bryan has earned a special match and he probably isn’t going to go last, so this would fit that bill. Plus, Batista being the Hollywood type with lots of toys pissing Bryan off writes itself. I would love Batista to be cutting a promo about wanting to come back and Bryan walks down and smacks him right in the face.

If I was him I wouldn't wrestle again. He's making huge money with his acting roles

[sportatorium]

It would work, but there’s no reason to have Daniel Bryan wrestling retired guys.
