Shelly Martinez Says She Made Amends With Batista After Backstage Incident Led to Her Being Fired From WWE

Shelly Martinez took to Twitter today to let fans know that all is well between her and Dave Bautista. She tweeted the following along with a photo she took with him (see below):

When people make fun of Batista to me it’s annoying. Just because I had an incident w him YEARS ago doesn’t mean I wanna make fun of him. It’s the past and VERY old news. We made amends and ended that negative energy a LONG time ago.

Back in 2017, Martinez said that she and Bautista got into a “fight” backstage and that is what led to her getting released from WWE. Martinez was working on the ECW brand as Ariel at the time. Her last appearance for the company was in 2006.

Martinez said the following back in 2017:

The time has definitely come and one of the signs that I know that wrestling is done for me is a couple. I’ve been having a real hard time these last couple of months and ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ has been promoted and now is out. For those of you that know that me and Dave Bautista got in a fight backstage, that’s how I got fired – so it’s been interesting for me to drive around town and I see Dave Bautista’s face everywhere.

Martinez continued:

She added, “there’s a lot of healing that I did through all of that but I was finding myself getting depressed. I would wonder why am I depressed and I would backtrack my day and a lot of times it was triggered by Bautista.

That all seems to be water under the bridge because she states that all is well between them these days.
