New York - Former WWE champion Batista may have jumped the gun when he said he was joining the Strikeforce MMA league.
According to the TMZ website, he hasn't signed a contract ... and the hold-up is cold, hard cash.
Sources involved in the negotiations said, Batista and Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker have already hammered out most of the details in their contract, but Batista's salary is still a major sticking point.
Coker and the former WWE star are also stuck on scheduling issues, because according to sources close to the fighter, Batista's calendar has been jam-packed with TV and movie deals since his wrestling contract expired.
