WWE allowed plenty of Superstars to make their way to the ring with special music at WrestleMania. For some reason they rejected RZA from the Wu-Tang Clan’s offer to add new lyrics to Batista’s track for no charge.
The Animal jumped on Twitter and he told a very interesting story. This was in reply to a fan who didn’t like Saliva’s version of Batista’s song much.
Dave Bautista is a likeable guy, and he has some famous friends. RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan wanted to add his own spin to Batista’s WWE entrance music, but the company declined.
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.
This might be a surprising story for some fans to hear. After all, we’re talking about the Wu-Tang Clan, but WWE rejected the idea and went their own direction.
CM Punk didn’t seem surprised by this story at all. He tweeted back saying: “Sounds about right.” At least we now know what could have been.

I love pro wrestling and hate BS. These two things drive me. Years of experience in writing, journalism, and digging exclusive insider info for Ringside News. Worked in finance before realizing pro wrestling journalism made much less sense. Pro beachballs at pro wrestling shows, pro dives if someone catches, anti bullies, olives, and pineapples on pizza.
