Before we get to the results which I will send in shortly after sending this, tonight's potentially major news is that Batista was injured. Odds are it was from the double chokeslam from Kane and Big Show to end Smackdown. After they stopped taping for TV, Orton came out for the local main event (Batista vs Orton vs Eddie) As Orton was on the mic, Batista was still down. There was no ref in the ring until Orton called for one right before he put the boots to Batista. Therefore, I don't think Randy had any communication from Batista that he couldn't continue. As soon as Jimmy Korderis figured it out, he threw up the X symbol and it was an obvious visual scramble to get out of there. Within a minute or so, they set up a quick spinebuster spot and Batista just rolled over and covered Orton for the 3. (no Eddie because he was selling the concussion angle from earlier in the show) Once the match was over, help came out from the back and Batista did get up eventually and walk out with the two assistants, however he didn't acknowledge the crowd at all or hold up his belt. He just got out of there and straight to the back.

Tag this with a SPOILER a.s.a.p. Or at least delete the part pertaining to SD results

I wish my sex life was like ECW, first you get a One Night Stand followed by 2 months of nostalgic orgasms and then 6 months of constant sucking.

There, I edited it to a spoiler alert, but it won't let me edit the thread title.

The thread title is fine, just the second sentence needs to be warned about.

www.wrestlingobserver.com states that Batista did tear his lat muscle at the tapings. Don't know how long he'll be out, but those things take a while to heal.

Thats a big loss to SD! If he'll be out for awhile, Im guessing that they will probably be stripping him of the Title. If that were to happen, I hope Eddie gets it back. He was a great Champion imo.

Looks like he could be out 3 months.

Who will be the new Champ?

That sucks for Batista.

Hopefully either Orton or Eddie. Knowing the writers though it will be JBL.

Mr. Kennedy

Poor Batista, the guy is hugely over right now and is the most dominant guy on SD so this is a huge blow for him. I know some people thought he might have held the title untill WM.

Let's see what WWE does, are they gonna have him lose the title or just vacate it?

I say put the title on Orton and have him carry it until WM 21, where he can then drop it to Batista, who should be back in February (he can return before then but likely won't be able to wrestle until that time). I think their program will work better with Batista chasing Orton for the title at first, then have Orton lose to Batista at WM, setting up several rematches later that spring.
