Default This Wrinkled 100% Cotton Batting Thing

I was asking on Google about what to do with a wrinkled cotton batting, whether it can be ironed out flat or not. After reading some threads on different sites, I found this one and decided as a new quilter to join. I followed the instructions on the batting bag to pre-soak for 20 minutes and then dry on low heat in the dryer. I did this. I took the batting out and even right out of the dryer, it is pretty wrinkled being a king size piece of batting. Can it be ironed to get the wrinkles out, with a wet cloth between the iron and batting? This is the first quilt I am making, so far good, except now with this wrinkled batting thing going on. HELP! Everything I have read says yes, no, let it rest, don't pre-wash, if you don't want it to shrink up, pre-wash etc. So here I am, pre-washed and wrinkled! :)
