Batista is no longer World Heavyweight Champ

From wwe.com

Tonight at the SmackDown television taping in Philadelphia, Batista’s torn right triceps forced him to relinquish the World Heavyweight Championship over to General Manager Theodore Long.

Long immediately declared that there would be a Battle Royal tonight to determine the new World Heavyweight Champion.

Stay tuned to WWE.com as we update you on the winner of the Battle Royal later tonight.
