Batista Says WWE Rejected Idea Of RZA From Wu-Tang Clan Adding Lyrics To His Theme Music

If Batista had it his way, his 2014 return to WWE would have been one that included an updated theme music with some input by the Wu-Tang Clan.

Batista revealed on Twitter that RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan planned to add some lyrics to his theme music when he returned to the company years ago. In fact, RZA was actually going to do it for free, but WWE rejected the idea, which frustrated Batista.

Below is Batista’s tweet.

Here’s some cool background shit for ya! My homie @rza from @WuTangClan was going to add some lyrics to my music to give it an updated feel when I went back in 2014… FOR FREE!!!! And the @WWE said NO. –Just another one of my frustrations of the 2014 shit show if a return. —- https://t.co/pKu2ROmMZx
