Batista was once floated as a dream final opponent for Cena, with Peter Rosenberg even suggesting the idea publicly. The Animal, however, has been retired since 2018 and is only awaiting his Hall of Fame induction. Now a full‑time actor, Batista has slimmed down considerably to fit Hollywood roles. Returning to the ring is not in his plans, making a Cena vs. Batista farewell clash impossible.
