Mr Main Event's Night of Champion Thoughts, Mark Henry New World Heavyweight Champion!

Night of Champions, a night in which every title in the WWE is defended. This is a night where you are almost guaranteed to see at least one title change. Tonight, the WWE Universe witnessed the two most important change hands, the World Heavyweight and the WWE titles.

 For fans who have been loyal to the WWE for years, they saw Mark Henry, a 15 year veteran earn his first World Heavyweight Championship. Henry has been terrorizing the Smackdown roster for the entire summer, and he stated that his goal was to win the World Championship, which he accomplished by defeating Randy Orton in a dominating performance.

John Cena defeated Alberto Del Rio in a solid match. I was not expecting much from this match, however I was not disappointed. It was not a bad, nor boring match, but it was not Cena-Punk either. For the first time, I actually was not upset that John Cena came out as the new WWE Champion. In my opinion, at the end of this man's career he will be a 25 time champion.

Triple H and CM Punk's No Disqualification match really lived up to the hype. At least, I think so. These two had a lot of pinned up emotion and they really took it to each other from start to finish. Triple H was in the ring for the first time since facing the Undertaker at WrestleMania in April. The Game really proved that he could keep up with Punk. Punk, who has been on a roll all Summer, threw everything at Triple H except the kitchen sink. However, Nash entered the ring, only to knock both men out. And just when Triple H landed a sledgehammer to Kevin Nash, out came R-Truth and Miz, who stated that they were tired of the conspiracies. In the end, it was Triple H defeating Punk and maintaining his role of the Chief Operating Officer of the WWE. We all know that CM Punk will be back, but in what form.

Kelly-Kelly surprised me. I just knew that her title reign would be over at the end of the night. Every time I see her take on Beth Phoenix, I become more impressed. Phoenix has really brought out the best in her. Prior to their matchups, the divas division seemed to be a dying breed. Now watching Kelly Kelly seems to be interesting because she has really improved her craft.

Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase Jr work so well in the ring together. When the two debuted as a tag team, I just knew that DiBiase Jr would be the star of this group. He seemed to have all the makings of a future world champion. However, he just cannot seem to get over. The two had a solid match tonight, but in the end it was Cody Rhodes outsmarting DiBiase to retain his Intercontinental Championship.

The United States Championship match was very entertaining. Since the Royal Rumble, I have said and will continue to say that Dolph Ziggler is a future main event star. He may not be the biggest, but his in ring ability and intelligence is well ahead of his class. Ziggler escaped with the victory tonight and retained his US Championship by simply outsmarting Alex Riley, Jack Swagger, and John Morrison.

The new team of Air Boom did not prove whether or not they are a fluke. The match simply ended in a disqualification. The Miz and R-Truth believed that they were victims of a conspiracy after the referee allowed  Evan Bourne and Kofi Kingston to execute a tag because he said that he heard one, but would not do the same because he did not hear it from Miz and Truth. I liked this a lot. This would lead to the Miz and R-Truth leaving in an uproar and as they indicated they would do something about the "conspiracies."

Mr Main Event BDuB’s Thoughts on Money in the Bank



It feels really good to be a wrestling fan tonight. I have not been this happy since I was about 13. I would look forward to a pay-per-view and then when it comes, I could not stop talking about it with all of my friends, nor stop watching it. Tonight’s Money in the Bank was great.
Smackdown Money in the Bank Ladder Match Winner: Daniel Bryan
I honestly did not see this happening. I thought this was a great match, much better than I had predicted. I figured it would be a lot of high flying spots, but nothing that really displayed any type of skill. I was wrong. I also felt that Health Slater and Justin Gabriel put on a great performance in this match. They were not just extras in this match. They told a story by teaming with Wade Barrett and seeming to once again be brainwashed to help him win the briefcase. Instead they turned on him. But in the end the best wrestler in the match won this one. I cannot wait until see when Daniel Bryan cashes it in.
WWE Divas Championship Match: Kelly Kelly defeats Brie Bella
This was the weakest match on the card. The only highlight in my opinion was the little aggression that Kelly Kelly showed once she got tired of being beat on, and that led to her victory.
Mark Henry Defeats Big Show
This match in my opinion lived up to the hype. Usually I do not look forward to matches between Super Heavyweights, however, these two have been at each others throats for several weeks. Mark Henry has had so much momentum going into this match and it he would not let up. After multiple body slams followed by a body splash, Henry was able to defeat the Big Show. That would not satisfy Henry, as he smashed Big Show’s leg with a body splash of the ropes onto a chair.
Raw Money in the Bank Ladder Match Winner: Alberto Del Rio
Going into this match I predicted that Del Rio would win this, however, this was a great performance by all the WWE Superstars involved. I was disappointed when the Miz hurt his knee and had to be helped to the locker room, however, when Evan Bourne was close to grabbing the briefcase, The Miz would excite the crowd and attempt to become a two time winner of the Money in the Bank, however, he would be stopped. At one point it seemed that Rey Mysterio would win the briefcase, however, Del Rio was able to stop him by grabbing his mask off, ultimately causing Rey Mysterio to lose focus. Alberto Del Rio would regain his momentum and grab the briefcase. Del Rio stated that he had already became number one contender and he further solidified himself as the next in line for the WWE Championship.
World Heavweight Championship Match: Christian Defeats Randy Orton
This is the third consecutive pay-per-view match that these two have faced each other and none has been a disappointment. The first match was straight up respect. Orton got the best of Christian and retain the title. The second match, Christian is now a heel and angry that he cannot seem to win the title. Orton wins again, this time in a controversial matter. Christian’s foot is under the rope and the referee failed to see it. This time, Christian demands a rematch with the stipulation that if Orton is disqualified or the referee makes a bad decision, then Christian would become the new World Champion. In this title match, Christian played the roll of the antagonist. He began with grabbing a chair and sliding it to Orton, tempting him to use it. Eventually Christian would attempt to wrestle Orton and attempt to defeat him 1-2-3, however that was not the case. Christian would finally spit in the face of Orton, causing Orton to lose control of his emotions. Randy Orton delivered a kick to Christian right below the belt causing himself to be disqualifed and therefore Christian is the New World Heavyweight Champion. After the match Orton would continue to beat Christian senseless. Now during this point I thought that Daniel Bryan would cash in his money in the bank briefcase, thankfully he did not. I really enjoyed this match and I am really happy that finally Christian is Champion. Hopefully he will not lose the title within five days.
WWE Championship Match: CM Punk Defeats John Cena
In the match that was most anticipated since Shawn Michaels vs The Undertaker at WrestleMania 26. Just like that match, this lived up to the hype. Punk had his hometown of Chicago on his side. Cena not only had to face Punk in the ring, he had to deal with the Chicago crowd on the outside. Throughout the match Cena and Punk hit each other with everything. I was suprised by John Cena’s wrestling ability tonight. He displayed more moves tonight than I have seen in any of his matches. He truly wrestled like a man whose Job was on the line. The two hit each other with their finisher on multiple occasions. Cena seemed to have this match won. Vince McMahon and John Laurinaitis would began approaching the ring to assure that the bell would ring causing Punk to lose, thus mimicking the infamous Montreal screw-job where Vince McMahon would ring the bell as soon as Shawn Michaels placed the sharpshooter on Bret Hart causing Hart to lose the title. As McMahon sent Laurinaitis to the time keepers table, Cena let go and laid him to the ground and stated that he did not want to win it that way. As soon as he retrieves to the ring, Punk hits him with the Go To Sleep and becomes the brand new WWE Champion. An irate Vince McMahon runs over to the announce table and snatches the headset from Jerry Lawler and calls for Alberto Del Rio to cash in his money in the bank. Del Rio comes running out to the ring and is met with a knee to the face by Punk. Punk would then blow McMahon a kiss and leave through the crowd with the title. This is one of those OMG moments, and as I stated it felt really great to be a wrestling fan during this match. Not only did they tell a story throughout the match, provide us with great in ring action and kept illegal holds to a limit, but in the end provided us with a twist that we did not see coming. I cannot wait until Monday Night Raw tomorrow night!
