He previously held the WWE United States Title, the WWE Intercontinental Title and the SmackDown/RAW Tag Team Titles. Kofi is the 13th Grand Slam Champion under the modern day format.

- Batista took to Twitter this week and declared that Triple H made him a star in WWE. The Animal was responding to a fan who posted video from the Vengeance 2005 match between the two.

He wrote, "I said it before and I'll say it again... @TripleH made me a star. Thanks for posting that. I'm proud as hell of our rivalry. We beat the hell out of ourselves and each other for the love of this business. #dreamchaser"

As noted, Batista lost the No Holds Barred match to Triple H at WrestleMania 35 on Sunday and then took to social media to announce his retirement from in-ring action for WWE. You can see the new tweet below:
