WWE Superstar Batista is expected to miss several months of ring time as a result of a torn hamstring. The injury began giving him problems during last month’s European tour and has only gotten worse. His injury is serious enough that he is expected to undergo surgery to remedy the problem soon. Randy Orton’s punt kick to his head last week on Raw was the storyline reason for Batista’s disappearance from television.

Jake Roberts was a recent guest on a radio show called Pain Clinic where he gave us his thoughts on the current state of pro wrestling. “I’ve always loved wrestling and my passion hasn’t diminished over the years. I had a choice to either quit watching wrestling or start doing something about it.”

Jake has also been reviewing WWE TV on his very own Myspace page. Roberts said he hopes someone in WWE will read the blog reviews and learn something from his knowledge and experience. Although he’s not really that fond of today’s wrestling business, Roberts says one WWE wrestler is impressing him right now.

Several sources are questioning the articles on WWE.com regarding the details on Batista’s injury. The WWE is claiming Batista’s hamstring was actually injured way back at SummerSlam, in the same match that World Heavyweight Champion John Cena was forced out of action with a neck injury actually. While Batista might have tweaked his hamstring in the match, there is no way he had a full tear at that time. The reason for this is because if Batista really tore his hamstring in the match, one would have seen a massive difference in the size of the two legs since he doesn’t wear long pants. The back of one of his legs would have been empty, so the thought he’s worked for weeks, or months, with a full tear is highly unlikely. The injury really started giving him problems during last month’s European tour, which worsened to the point of him needing surgery.

World Wrestling Entertainment has released 2 more contracted talents this week as part of their cost-cutting initiative. Both releases are from WWE’s developmental system. The first release is Imani Lee, a former K-1 fighter who is reportedly a good friend of Batista’s.

The second is Mike Jarvi, an enormous 7 footer who worked in Florida Championship Wrestling as the “Giant Titan”.
