The heart of the matter

Batista declared that his match at WrestleMania will be the final wrestling performance of his career which led to Triple H responded by declaring that their match will be No Holds Barred.

The history between both men began in the early years of Batista's career when he joined the Raw stable Evolution. Batista fought alongside Triple H, Randy Orton and Flair for two years before the group disbanded in 2005.

Batista won the 2005 Royal Rumble and defeated Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 21 and the rematches that followed.

Batista left the WWE after their final match against The Shield and didn't return to the company until 2018 for Evolution's reunion on SmackDown 1000, which set the stage for their WrestleMania match.
