Batista added the Spear to his arsenal around 2007, and it helped him look like a more unpredictable wrestler. Prior to that, he was mostly known for hitting his big moves while standing directly in front of his opponents. WWE figured that, by adding the Spear, Batista would be able to hit a move out of nowhere like Randy Orton, which would go well with his ‘explosive power’ gimmick.

However, while Batista’s Spear was good, it wasn’t great. Batista wasn’t much of a runner and was far better suited to hitting big power moves from a standing position, like his Spinebuster or the Batista Bomb.

Those maneuvers allowed him to capitalize on his power and upper body strength, whereas a Spear requires more agility and leg strength, both of which are things that Batista didn’t showcase as much in his big matches.
