This weekend at Night Of Champions, AJ Styles will face Seth Rollins for the revived World Heavyweight Championship. According to BWE on Twitter by way of Cagesideseats.com, WWE will be continuing the lineage of the original World Heavyweight Championship, which was active from 2002-2013, with Randy Orton defeating John Cena to unify the title with the WWE Title at Tables, Ladders And Chairs 2013.

Opinion: This is one of those things that makes sense, though it is still a little weird. The title was unified out of existence almost ten years ago and now it is coming back for whatever reason.
