People continue to leak information about Batista's scheduled WWE return. An executive for the NBA's Phoenix Suns franchise revealed on Twitter that Batista will be appearing at the WWE live event on Saturday, February 15, 2014 at the US Airways Center in Phoenix. The executive, Jeramie McPeek, who is the Vice President of Digital Operations for the Suns, noted: "Just got word that the WWE Live show at US Airways Center on Feb. 15, will feature the return of Batista!" As far as the date we spoke of yesterday at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, one day after the date that the Suns executive is speaking about, February 16th, "The Animal" is no longer included in advertisements on the UNLV Tickets website. Basically, WWE was pissed and had them pull the advertisement. Apparently WWE wanted Batista's return to be kept a surprise, and a number of venue executives have been spilling the beans in advertisements that he was not supposed to be included in. Regardless, with two back-to-back dates advertising Batista at one point or another, Feb. 15th and 16th, it's pretty much a guarantee that Batista will be back in WWE in time for WrestleMania. WWE may change their original plans, which was a rumored return as a surprise entrant in the Royal Rumble in January, to try and keep some semblance of surprise as far as when and where Batista makes his official company return.
