Here's the original story from close to the horse's mouth (Heinz is an IFBB Pro who along with Martinez trains under Victor Munoz):
BIGHEINZ SAID THIS FROM PRO. MUSCLE
Victor Munoz just called me today 1-15-07 at 6.30 pm, he gived his cellphone to Matinez and he told me he broke a knee tendon getting out off his truck, and he is not doing the Arnold.
It is a sad news, he has been training very hard just focused in every show, every day of his life and just with a bad move and shit!!!!
He is going tomorrow to the specialist to see what he is going to do and maybe set up the surgery.
I will be in touch with him and let you know guys.
I think i am more piss than him, he was talking very nice and quiet. He is very nice bros, even with this furstrating situation.

And here is a classic "Getbig" Response posted by Triple-H 2005 on MD:
Okay, three stories...
1. "Pops" kneecap while stetching.
2. "Breaks" a tendon getting out of his truck.
3. "Shits" pants after seing Heath photos.
Waiting for definitive word...

At this very moment, Vic's cell phone is ringing non-stop. From his friends asking how he's doing? Nope. From his fans wanting to know if he'll compete? Nope.
His phone is ringing off the hook because 'Da Boss' is absolutely FURIOUS that his #1 guy is gonna skip the #1 show. My apologies to the Olympia, but the Arnold is where it's at and where the best man wins.
