Words that rhyme with Batista
For the rhyme search, what matters about batista is this: three-syllable, vowel on a low-front /æ/, ending that ends on an open vowel. Plain-speech words like this earn weight through context. Songwriters reach for it as a low-register anchor. Perfect rhymes simply aren't available, family rhymes come up empty, and the assonance column dwarfs the others. The slant pool is huge enough that you'll never need to repeat a rhyme.

Why batista rhymes the way it does
Pull batista apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with the short /æ/ (/æ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close ends on an open vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1114, assonance 5,615, and consonance 0. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for batista tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives — and often prefers — the slant.
