He may have returned to the WWE after almost four years of absence, but Batista's comeback is not exactly welcomed by everyone in the WWE locker room. Count Ryback is among the list of WWE superstars not thrilled with Batista's return.
Speaking to DirectTV.com, Ryback aired his sentiments on Batista's WWE comeback. "I'm offended that he's back. I'm the one and only 'Big Guy'in the WWE."
Ryback also noted that he works the full schedule, and does not take a night off. He continued: "I do all the cool power moves that you don't see anybody doing anymore. I go out there and wrestle for 30 minutes, which you don't see a lot of 295 lb. guys doing. I take a lot of pride in being big and having a lot of endurance and doing things that not everyone can do."
Batista returned to the WWE on the January 20 broadcast of Raw. During his in-ring return, he stared down WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton and announced that he will win the Royal Rumble and eventually the world title at Wrestlemania XXX.
Still, Ryback is not impressed with Batista's pronouncements even if he has respect for the former champ.
"So Batista is back, and it's cool from a fan's point of view, and I know he has some lofty goals, but this is my time now. I'm not taking a backseat to anyone. So if we end up in the ring together, it would give me great pleasure to throw him right over the top rope," he added.
