Brock Lesnar takes heat for ending The Undertaker winning streak at WrestleMania. In a new interview, while talking about the Brock Lesnar Undertaker match, Dave Bautista (Batista) gave a glimpse of the heat that exists backstage between the WWE exectuives and the wrestlers. Batista slammed the managers of the World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. for having a young wrestler as Lesnar beat an iconic star like The Undertaker.
Batista brought out the heat when he was asked to share his thoughts, on the infamous match between The Undertaker and Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania XXX.
Wrestling fans have the date April 6, 2014 engraved in their memories, as the day the impossible happened: The Undertaker’s
21-year winning streak at WrestleMania ended by Brock Lesnar.
WWE supporters knew that one day Mark William Calaway aka The Undertaker would retire, but no one predicted that it would be a fresh face fighter that would send him to his grave.
Many were upset after the match and apparently Batista was not thrilled either.
The Animal sat down with the The Huffington Post to promote his new movie Guardian of the Galaxy and took the opportunity to share his thoughts on Lesnar breaking The Undertaker’ record 21 straight victories.
Dave Bautista said what a majority of people watching the event thought, it sucked and it was the wrong way for the legendary fighter to go out, he explained:
“It sucked! Honestly, I thought it sucked. I haven’t really talked much about it but I think it was a bad decision, a horrible decision. I don’t have any say in the matter but to me, watching as a fan, it made me sick.”
The movie star went on to add that the management really mishandled Taker’s match by writing Lesnar out the following day:
“Brock Lesnar beating him didn’t seem to work and it really wasn’t good that Brock left the day after. I just don’t see how that made sense at all. I don’t think anyone wanted to see the streak broken and it just didn’t make sense to me.”
Batista has a habit of blasting his employers, in 2005 he called some of their decisions stupid, but do not expect his harsh words to get him in trouble.
After promoting the Guardian of the Galaxy, the professional wrestler is expected to return to the WWE in early fall.
Brock Lesnar is also taking heat backstage over his position in the WWE and overall demeanor. The other professionals believe that he should be more involved and not only show up for the big main events.
What the critics need to understand, as long Lesnar is good for business, he will be able to do things as he sees fit.
