WWE Champion John Cena will face Batista in an Quit Match for the WWE Title at Over the Limit, which will be the last time these two Superstars meet in the squared circle for the championship.
The storied rivalry between Cena and Batista has only intensified in recent months after their harrowing collision at WrestleMania XXVI, when The Champ capitalized with an STF and made The Animal tap out, capturing his seventh WWE Title.
Labeling Cena`s victory on The Grandest Stage of Them All a fluke, Batista challenged The Champ for the title once again at Extreme Rules in a Last Man Standing Match, one of the most brutal and physically taxing matches WWE has to offer. Ultimately, it was Cena`s ingenuity that would slay the 6-foot-6 behemoth when he taped Batista`s ankles around a ring post, preventing the incensed Animal from rising to his feet. Ten counts later, Cena emerged triumphant yet again, proving to Batista and the entire WWE Universe that it takes more than just brute force to secure championships.
Humiliated, Batista appeared on the May 3 edition of Raw to issue a Beat the Clock Challenge to determine the stipulation for their Over the Limit championship encounter, which Cena won later that night. The following week on Raw, Cena announced the WWE title bout would be an I Quit Match, an anything goes contest that both of these battle-hardened competitors are more than familiar with for better or worse.
As its name suggests, the only way to win an I Quit Match is to make your opponent utter the words I quit by any means necessary. Both Cena and Batista will need to push themselves to the limit and over it for the WWE Championship at WWE Over the Limit Sunday, May 23, only on pay-per-view.
