As WWE celebrated the 70th birthday of Ric Flair on Raw, Batista shockingly stormed “The Nature Boy’s” dressing room, dragging an incapacitated Flair through the hallway and asking Triple H, “Do I have your attention now?”
During SmackDown’s 1,000th episode last October, Batista made an offhanded comment that the only thing Triple H had yet to accomplish was beating him. It would appear that “The Animal” did not get the answer he desired, so he decided to reiterate it at the expense of the one wrestler “The Game” respects above all others.
The former WWE Champion made a surprise return in Raw’s closing moments, attacking Ric Flair before “The Nature Boy” could strut down the aisle to his 70th birthday celebration, where the Raw roster and some select guests of honor — Shawn Michaels, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, Kurt Angle and Sting — were gathered to wish Flair many happy returns.
Triple H then introduced Flair as his music played. However, after a few moments, it became clear something was amiss as Batista appeared backstage, dragging a camera over to Flair’s dressing room. Dragging a beaten Flair from the dressing room, Batista stared directly into the camera and asked, “Hey, Hunter, do I have your attention now?”
Triple H left the ring and went backstage, but Batista was nowhere to be seen. He tended to Flair as Raw went off the air.
Here is video of Batista’s appearance on Raw and aftermath.
