Kane vs Batista Pick Your Poison Lumberjack Match

[DarcOfTheShadows]

Man, Batista was never the most well-known or influential wrestler, but he's always been an absolute pleasure to watch in the ring.

[tonyojiambo]

Back when raw and smack down were no miss shows. Today's wrestlers are just a watered down version of what true star power should be

Triple H was talking all that mess and got his ass beat 3 times in a row

[zorriongreen]

I love it when Triple H gets so angry when ever his plan fails or something doesn't go his way. I laugh my ass off 🤣 at the end when triple h realise kane was gonna lose. I missed the good old days

[cavelmordica]

Bro the commentary was awesome bak then 😭💯

[H.K.]

Batista has the best physique in WWE history, he was built like a Greek god.

[jordandavis]

That uppercut from Kane was so awesome!

[armnhc]

That Spinebuster to Kane was more of an Assbuster than anything lol

[MrAthlete]

Idk about y’all but the commentary is killing me😂

[jasonromer]

Trips know his loyalty in the locker room is the reason he can count on Kane to do his dirty dirty work lmao . Other than Paul bearer and undertaker, trips can manipulate Kane to do his dirty work lmao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[jacinto]

It was 2003, the WWF / Titan Entertainments had to pay the then 318 lbs Batista an astronomical sum of money and 39% of the company stocks to convince him to become a face of the WWF, which also meant a no supplement policy. Doing so would also significantly reduce the risk of Batista snapping the entire roster in half. He lost muscle and dropped down to 287 lbs as a result ...

As a side note, The Rock was smashed to near death by a young Brock Lesnar, and he calculated that if he couldn’t beat Brock - he was terrified of the idea of facing a 287 lbs watered down Batista - let alone the 318 lbs version that murdered Kane in 3 minutes in 2002. Rock was a smart man, he immediately took the opportunity to get away from New York to do some more movies - thus avoiding any fatal encounter with The Animal.

Steve Austin prided himself for being the toughest SOB on the planet, slapped around Mike Tyson for fun until Tyson cried. Stone Cold feared no one, and never lost a man to man encounter from the backstage or in any of the 450+ bars and roadhouses Stone Cold had been through, hell he even put Meng to sleep with his weak hand. Stone Cold feared no one, that was until he saw Batista. Immediately he utilised his texas rattle snake reflexes and lobbied hard to be the GM, doing so it mean’t he had executive powers to protect himself from getting into the ring by virtue of a non contact clause - a master stroke from the beer drinkin SOB that once bullied Jake the Snake back in ‘96. This was enough to keep Batista away from outright murdering Stone Cold...

Then there is HHH, the heir apparent to the WWF empire. His ego and envy of Batista is stuff of legends. HHH @ 268 lbs trained and ate to the best of 21st century sports science allowed, and he trained and ate HARD. But he knew he could never match Batista’s power and intensity, even at his smaller 287 lbs form.

HHH found himself prey to The Animal. Stephanie feared for her husbands life and pleaded to Vince, the exec committee and the WWF shareholders to protect HHH.

So what you see in this video is the result of nearly an entire roster and what we belive is Kane, the shaven unmasked man that was soundly smashed here was merely a ghost... Vince begged The Undertaker to use all his powers to summon of the spirit of the former masked big red machine that the then 318lbs Batista murdered under the guidance of Ric Flair back in 02. They hoped that this ghost of ‘Kane’ motivated by fire vengeance and the 45 or so WWF superstar lumberjacks would be enough to slow Batista down - it was no where near enough ...

Vince had to act fast, he pleaded with Dave Batista’s good nature (or whatever little amount near to good he had) in exchange for a promising movie career and even the controlling stake of the WWF ... who knows what else Vince did, all we know was this PEAK/PRIME 261 lbs HHH was a soundly beaten and bloody mess of a man - yet somehow Batista held back enough and spared HHH’s life, thank the heavens!
