ORIGINAL: WWE.com has announced that Ryback sustained an injury on Raw, which will prevent him from competing against Big Show and Miz at Battleground this weekend.
The announcement does not list the nature of the injury and, at this time at least, it is unknown whether the match will continue at all. As of this writing the match has been completely removed from the Battleground page on the site.
More on this, obviously, as it develops.
