Following Triple H’s statement, fans started speculating about which superstars might make a comeback at WWE Day 1. There are reports suggesting that WWE is planning to bring back Batista, also known as The Animal, to induct him into the Hall of Fame in 2024. Batista was scheduled to be inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2020, but unfortunately, the event was cancelled due to the pandemic.
Batista announced retirement from wrestling and recent photos of Batista shows he has lost more weights to focus on his acting carrier. So, if Batista is returning he will not compete in any matches, but only to be in the Hall Of Fame
