I think it’s time to dust off the old best feud series. This time the subject will be Batista. The more time goes by, the more I miss Batista. I know a lot of people didn’t think much of him but I thought Batista was great. He had some great feuds during his time in WWE. I’m going to do my usual and rank his top ten feuds.
10. The Great Khali
9. Edge
8. Booker T
7. Randy Orton
6. JBL
5. Shawn Michaels
4. Rey Mysterio
3. Undertaker
2. Triple H
1. John Cena
I did not come to my conclusion for number one easily. The top three could have been mixed up in any combination but ultimately I decided Batista’s last feud was his best feud. That had the perfect storyline going into WrestleMania 26. I could go on to tell you the story but Batista told it better than I could.

I love that promo. I remember watching it and as soon as I thought something Batista said it. Everything Batista said was true and all those things just happened to take place over the years. The storyline wrote itself. I might have chosen the feud with Cena as the best for WM26 alone (they should have main evented by the way), but it continued beyond that with a Last Man Standing match and an I Quit match that ended up being Batista’s last. While I’m pretty satisfied with John Cena as my choice for Batista’s best feud I recognize there are other reasonable choices. With whom do you feel Batista had his best feud?
By the way, one name that is unfortunately absent from the list is Kurt Angle. Their paths just never happened to cross. Too bad. They could have had a good feud.
