Batista to the ring, with Teddy Long in tow, Batista gets the mic, he says that you may already know but maybe you don't, because he has been keeping it to himself, he says that last Sunday against Mark Henry he was injured, he says he has worked through injuries before but this one is too severe, and it will require surgery that will indefinitely side line him.

He talks about a friend of his telling him to enjoy the ride when he first won the title, he says and that's what he did, he was proud to represent the people and the company. He talks about following in the tradition of Ric Flair, Harley Race, HHH and Dusty Rhodes, he loves the fans and they will never know how much.

He says he wanted to always be a fighting champion, wrestling anyone form the size of Big show to Eddie Guerrero, after an emotional moment, he regroups himself, ands says as champion he must do the right thing, and turn the World Heavyweight Championship over to Teddy Long, but he has one last thing to tell Teddy, and he says to steal a line from his mentor, to be the man you got to beat the man, you got to beat him, and he wants everyone to know, that he will be back and that he will be champion again.

He drops the mic and gives Teddy a bit of a hug and makes a trip around ringside and leaves up the ramp to a good pop.
