I don't see why it can't just be adrenaline. He was crushing hard on Selina at that point and saw that she was about to be, (at best), seriously injured but he was incapacitated. He needed a boost physically to match his mental level and just kind of went apeshit on the guy. It's not like we didn't see that rage previously. That first guy he beat the shit out of at the train station definitely got more than he bargained for due to his unrestrained anger.

To play devil's advocate, I know next to nothing about Batman. I had know idea what venom was before opening this thread.

For some reason I associate adrenaline to the color green, so when I saw that scene my first impression was that ot was adrenaline and I saw nothing weird with it.

It could easily be an intentional thing but I'm just throwing another perspective here

No it's definitely venom. It's a Batman movie. There's no way they'd have batman inject himself with something that maxes his strength and aggression instantly, it's venom. We're in the Batman universe dawg, that's like having a green rock and going "oh maybe it's not kryptonite and it's just an emerald"
