Heat on Batista After ECW Antics

ECW fans are quite proud of how extreme their behavior can get. Apparently, it's gotten the best of WWE star, Batista.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the animal has recevied backstage heat after his reaction at a recent ECW show. Once fans started booing him, the former champion lost his cool.

But can you blame the ECW faithful for expressing their negative sentiments toward a wrestler appearing on their program who had nothing to do with the original company or extreme idea?

Vince McMahon, especially, was mad at his superstar. He and Johnny Ace had warned Batista that he'd receive a less than popular reaction.

In the end, Batista’s appearance was heavily edited for the broadcast, with WWE putting in footage of fans cheering him and holding up signs supporting him. The negative chants were covered up with a long “ECW” chant, and any remarks Joey Styles or Tazz made in regards to the fans were removed.
