As noted earlier, WWE's website today confirmed the injury and surgery for WWE Champion Batista and that he would be out of action for about four months.
F4Wonline.com reports that word going around is that they may decide to keep Batista out of action until longer - around the time for the 2010 Royal Rumble pay-per-view.
One reason for WWE wanting to keep Batista out of action for a bit longer is that they might realize he needs enough time this around to fully heal. His most recent return came before he was 100% ready and less than 6 months later he goes back down with an injury.
