Randy Orton apologizes for interrupting Batista’s match, then says that Batista has been easily distracted since the days of Evolution. Orton tells Batista that they’ve had a lot of laughs, but Batista losing to Del Rio via a rollup is one of the funniest things he’s seen in a long time.
Randy Orton says the other thing that’s funny is how the WWE Universe has reacted to Batista’s triumphant return. Orton tells Batista that the WWE Universe doesn’t like him very much. Orton thinks that because of the boos, Batista is sorry that he came back.
Batista tells Randy Orton that he couldn’t be any more wrong. Batista tells everybody to get this through their heads: He. Loves. This. Business. The crowd only boos him more.
Batista says that he loves that the WWE Universe has a voice, so if they cheer him, he’ll cheer them back. If they boo Batista, he will boo them back. It’s called being “real” and honest. Something Randy Orton knows nothing about.
Batista says what matters is that he will go to Wrestlemania and beat Randy Orton, someone who he used to call his friend, but has turned into a whiny, sniveling, kiss-ass suckup.
Batista tells Randy Orton to get used to him as the next WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Batista tells the WWE Universe to “Deal With It.”
