Mr Main Event's Predictions for WWE Night of Champions

Fatal 4-Way U.S. Championship Match 
Dolph Ziggler (C) vs Alex Riley vs Jack Swagger vs John Morrison
In this matchup, Ziggler has his back against the wall. Going against three other phenomenal athletes. This match actually has a chance to steal the show, well it may not be that good, but you get the point. I have often said that Ziggler is the future and in this match he will prove it but escaping with a close victory.

World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton (C) vs. Mark Henry
This should be a great match and the climax to Mark Henry's Hall of Pain. Orton may have been hot all summer, but so has Henry and what better way for him to end the summer than winning the World Heavyweight Championship. In my opinion, Mark Henry does the unthinkable after 15 years out of the limelight and becomes the new World Heavyweight Champion.

WWE Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston & Evan Bourne (c) vs. The Miz & R-Truth
Ladies and Gentleman, for the first time since 2009, I am actually looking forward to a Tag Team Title Match. I respect the team of "Air-Boom," and The Miz & R-Truth are my favorite wrestlers on Raw. A lot of people feel that they are being buried, and rightfully so, however, with these two being a team in the hunt for gold, I feel that they are still being kept relevant, and mentioning Triple H's name also keeps them relevant. However, I believe Air Boom will hold on the titles, and this will be an ongoing feud between the two teams.

Divas Champion Kelly Kelly (c) vs. Beth Phoenix
In order for the Divas of Doom to be effective, Beth Phoenix must win this one. Kelly Kelly has had the title long enough and in my opinion, her reign ends this Sunday.

WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. John Cena
Alberto Del Rio was exposed by the Hitman Bret Hart on the "go-home" episode of Raw. Bret told Del Rio what CM Punk and Cena told him a couple of weeks after he won the title, and that is now that he has the belt he must act like a champion. He needs to prove to everyone why we should care that he is the WWE Champion. If he can wrestle in a good match with John Cena, then maybe he will prove everyone right. In my opinion, Del Rio wins in a controversial matter.

CM Punk vs. Triple H (No Disqualification Match)
This match will be very personal. Many are saying this is too early, but one thing I have said and will continue to believe, CM Punk claimed he was burned out and under-appreciated. Because of this, he threatened not to resign his WWE contract. The WWE went through hoops just to resign him, and Punk claims that he has received some "perks." Because of that, I know that there has to be something bigger in the future for Punk. As far as this match, with Triple H's position in the company on the line, I think that some way Punk will get screwed which will set him up for a rematch.

Raw review 6/13/11

Personally I thought that having an All-Stars version of Raw would have been better if it was not the last before Captiol Punishment. There were some great matches, but in the end, I personally thought that for the second week in the row, the show started off good and went downhill from there. I also did not understand the multiple interruptions from the anonymous general manager. If Stone Cold Steve Austin was the guest general manager for the night, then why did we need this idiot to be “present.” Really, can he have a vacation?
Beginning with the Miz was really good. I like how the Miz pointed out that he has had problems with both the iconic Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock. Miz would begin demanding an apology from Austin and what he received was a match with the legendary Rowdy Roddy Piper.
Austin after he sent the Miz packing, was interrupted by Alberto Del Rio. He then booked Del Rio to face Kane.

Kane def Alberto Del Rio via Disqualification 
I like the aggression that Del Rio used in this match when he put Kane in the cross armbar, even though it got him disqualified. This led to the return of the Big Show. Big Show came out and attacked Del Rio. Now unless I missed something, why was his hand taped, if his knee got caught under the car. I thought the Big Show would be out longer however this allowed Austin to make the match for the two face each other at Capitol Punishment.

Sin Cara, Ezekiel Jackson & Daniel Bryan def. Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett, Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase 
This was a great wrestling match. I am not as much of a fan of six-man tag matches any longer, I feel that the concept has been used to many times. Sin Cara worked really well and it was him scoring the pinfall on Barrett after he was abused with multiple bodyslams and the torture rack by Jackson. In my opinion, I feel that Ezekiel Jackson will finally defeat Barrett for the Intercontinental Title at Capitol Punishment.

Sheamus def. Santino Marella
In this match, I saw the old Sheamus. I thought that he was losing his winning ways and ruthless aggression. It is always great to see submission wrestling, and seeing Sheamus using the Texas Cloverleaf to obtain the victory show his great wrestling ability.

Rey Mysterio def. Christian by Disqualification
This match ended after Mysterio was attacked by the Nexus. After Christian hit the Kill-switch to send a message to Randy Orton. If Christian can display the same type of aggression, then he has a chance to once again become the World Heavyweight Champion.

U.S. Champion Kofi Kingston & Evan Bourne def. Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger
On a normal two hour segment, this match would not have taken place. All four of these men are the future of the WWE and personally I cannot wait til Sunday to see Kingston take on Ziggler. However, I think Ziggler will pull off the victory and become the new WWE U.S. Champion.

“Rowdy” Roddy Piper def. The Miz with special guest referee Alex Riley
This match was entertaining, but it was predictable. Before the match, an episode of Piper Pit occurred and it was brought to the attention of everyone that Miz has been often compared to Piper. I did like how this was the only true “All-Stars” match of the night (One Generation against Another). Even though the Miz lost $5,000 in this match, I believe that he will take out all his aggression Sunday and defeat Riley.

Kelly Kelly, Eve, Gail Kim, Beth Phoenix, Natalya, Kaitlyn & AJ def. Divas Champion Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Maryse, Melina, Alicia Fox, Tamina & Rosa Mendes
This was a typical Divas fill in match. Before this match, I did not realize that there were 14 divas on the roster. With Kharma out of the picture, the divas have returned to being what they were, just fill ins before the main event. I will be glad when Brie Bella does not have the Divas title any longer. Having Kelly Kelly score the victory proves that she is the face of the diva division.

CM Punk def. WWE Champion John Cena in a Non-Title Match
CM Punk and John Cena always have a great match when the two face off. I was never the biggest fan of Punk, but I could never count out his in ring ability. His matches tell a story, and he has the ability to make you hate him.
I did like how R-Truth used his tactics to distract Cena and allow Punk to hit the Go To Sleep and score the victory over the champion. Truth then would get in the ring and continue to pummel Cena and attempt to weaken him for Captiol Punishment.

Other notes on the show
I enjoyed Christian getting inside of Randy Orton’s head by telling him that he would face him in the ring, only to send security to contain Orton.
I also enjoyed Stone Cold Steve Austin beating up the “Raw General Manager.” I will be glad when they finally reveal who this person is. It is really getting old now.
Last but not least, R-Truth continues his mind games this time beating up John Morrison prior to the match that they were supposed to have. R-Truth continues to thrive in his role as the biggest heel in the company.
