Batista, the quickest gimmick in WWE history

I'll admit, I like Batista. If you're watching him fight Ric Flair or Gene Snitsky, (Who by the way, wasn't at WM21), he's very entertaining. But he cannot put on matches like Benoit vs Angle,Royal Rumble 2003, (we al knew Lesnar would win). The bookers, (you *beep* who should use Booker T) need to use Booker T or someone else,because after Triple H, who else is there?(Edge won't ask for his title shot until this summer. Benoit will beat him in between)So I say then, who? The only entertaining match I see in the next year is Shelton Benjamin(face) vs Batista(heel) Kind of like Geurrero vs Lesnar at NWO2004

I like Batista, but the first time Vince hears a boo, he's done, just like Benoit, (who was the best champion since Bret Hart) They need to go to work with this guy. He's over big time and they need to capitalize on it. To be honest, I love Batista. He's a big man (ala Ultimate Warrior (lets hope he doen't end up like that)Or he's dumb) I hope he's not anothe Diesel. If Batista gets a little work (Al Snow, Tazz) he has the potential to be one of the best big man faces (or hells) in WWE history

There are no plans for a replacement for Triple H, that's fairly obvious. That belt is his. He'll give it to someone for a month or two and then win it back himself until he has more titles than Flair (Orton beating Benoit for it was a changed plan - he wasn't supposed to win it until Mania, but they rushed it on him so he'd still be younger than Lesnar was).

Batista has not shown the ability to carry a singles match of more than ten minutes that isn't awful. The Mania match with Trips was pretty good, but let's see him do it again. Then we'll talk about the best ever.

*beep* is more likely to be called the fastest gimmick in WWE history instead of Batista. A guy dressed up as a chicken in the same kinda costume you see at ball games,is not exactly a great idea for a wrestler.

His debut was teased for a whole year and when he finally did debut it was pretty much the only time he was ever seen again.

I don't believe it. Is *beep* really considered a foul word here, brainless idiot decided that?

Okay I've tried twice to put the word and since it seems to be considered a cuss word even though it ain't by any stretch of the imagination, let's try it this way.....
