TMZ cameras recently caught up with former WWE Superstar Dave Batista, who left WWE for what he hoped to be the greener pastures of the Mixed Marital Arts (MMA) industry. It was his hopes to be the next Brock Lesnar, though UFC President Dana White decided he didn't want to take another shot on a former WWE Superstar, especially since Batista has no collegiate amateur wrestling background like Brock Lesnar.
Dave Batista then entered into negotiations with Strikeforce, at the time considered to be the competitor to the UFC. Unfortunately for the former WWE Superstar, UFC purchased Strikeforce sometime ago.
Batista confirmed to TMZ cameras that thanks to the purchase of Strikeforce by UFC, his deal with the company fell through, leaving him without an MMA deal.
Perhaps if he's looking for a big money payday, a return to WWE isn't so out of the question now.
