I'm bringing my camera. And hoping to get some classic Dave faces.

I'd say it's 70% that Batista gets cheered. It's the perfect match for the crowd to troll and start busting out "RVD" and Randy Savage chants.

The crowd will chant "you still got it" after the first collar and elbow tie-up toward no one in particular.

HHH has spent twenty years yelling "I AM REALLY REALLY GOOD, I AM LITERALLY JESUS CHRIST BETWEEN THESE ROPES!" at us, and it's largely worked. He gets cheered when he wants to be cheered. A notable and hilarious exception being the 'you tapped out' chants when he fought Brock.

I would cheer for Big Dave because they want me to boo. Plus, he supported James Gunn when he didn't have to. That, and I want Dave to be Solomon Grundy in Suicide Squad 2.
Wait, what were we talking about again?
In all seriousness, didn't Dave once say, if he came back, he only wanted to do house shows as to not take away from the young guys?

I mean, working with Triple H isn't taking much of anything from the young guys. It's not like the Wrestlemania 30 scenario. It's just bizarro land booking, in my opinion. You've got a guy who plays a beloved character in one of the biggest franchises ever playing a heel going against a guy who's a heel until he suddenly isn't. I dunno, maybe I'm just overthinking it. I think it's a byproduct of the WWE blurring the lines between shoot and work so much lately that you can't take anything at "work" value anymore without looking at it through a "shoot" lens, but that's a whole 'nother can of worms.

HHH is the face as long as he's on Becky's side, which he appears to be. The WWE can't measure how much an in-ring-return of Bats will pop a live 'Mania crowd exactly, but if HHH is playing the face on the Road to WrestleMania it's hard to boo him on the day of.
The only thing I can think of is if Batista does something epic on social media, or puts someone over like The Rock did for the Hurricane which led to Hollywood Rock turning face eventually, where Batista's star power (he's honestly the most successful member of Evolution-- compared to HHH going corporate to be 'the man' but having his cake too by wrestling every 'Mania as an Authority Figure is kinda cheating and pretty disingenuous if Batista's motivation is really to prove he is the better man between him and HHH) it might be enough to get everyone to treat him as a babyface during the match.
Too hard to call this far out
