Last week, WWE confirmed that Batista will make his return as part of an Evolution reunion along with Triple H, Randy Orton and WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair.

The SmackDown 1000 episode takes place on October 16th at the Capital One Arena in Washington DC. The belief is that the company load up the show to the point where they will bring in several stars from the past and the show will be similar to RAW 1000 back in 2012. Thus, expect more names to be advertised.

There is a former WWE Champion reportedly appearing at this show as well, which you can read here, but please keep in mind that it contains a spoiler.
