Dave Batista on spoiled fans of WWE, and fan backlash during his 2014 run with the company...

"I think it was more the impression that they were just so anti me. It was almost the trendy thing to be anti me. So yeah, it wasn't like they were booing me because [I was] being the heel or whatever. They weren't booing it because it was a show. It's like a personal attack. It really wasn't something that was show related or entertainment based. It was really like a personal attack. It became everything I did. It was an internet thing. Everything I did, I came back and I demanded to come back at the Royal Rumble and main event WrestleMania and none of that s--t was my idea. "

Batista continued: "I just wanted to come back. I didn't ask for a lot of money. I didn't ask for a lot of money. I didn't say I wasn't going to do house shows. I didn't say I won't put this guy over. I didn't say any of that. I just wanted to come back and wrestle." Batista continued, "the crowd, they don't really want to watch the show and they don't really want to participate in the show. They want to be the show and that really seemed true sometimes. They didn't even care what was going on in the ring sometimes. They wanted to be the show. They wanted to be the highlight of the show. Then, I always say, if you want to be the highlight of the show, go to f--king wrestling school, lace up your Goddamn boots, and get bumps just like everybody else."
