- As we noted before, actor Stephen Amell of Arrow fame, who appeared for WWE in 2015, ROH in 2017 and then at All In in 2018, took to Twitter this week and posted a tongue-in-cheek comment about the No Holds Barred match between Triple H and Batista at WrestleMania 35, calling it the "celebrity angle" of the big event.
Amell wrote, "Just landed and found out about @DaveBautista v @TripleH ? Really pumped for the match but also don't want to see a celebrity angle detract from an awesome wrestling card."
Batista quickly fired back and wrote, "Considering that celebrity could actually f–k someone up, and that celebrity is a former 6x heavyweight champ, and that celebrity is there because he loves it, maybe it just adds to the card. Maybe."
Amell would later clarify his tweet and jokingly ask Batista not to kill him. Amell wrote, "Hey Dave — I went out of my way to introduce myself to you in Atlanta at a convention so I could tell you what a big fan of yours I am. You couldn't have been more pleasant. My tweet was meant to poke fun at me. It clearly wasn't funny. Please don't kill me."
Batista has not responded to Amell's last tweet as of this writing.
