5 title changes at last night's PPV

[jbell96]

A lot happened at last night's PPV. Jericho/Mysterio & Hardy/Edge were easily the two best matches on the card.

Jericho defeated Rey Mysterio to win the IC title in a no holds barred match. If it wasn't for Hardy/Edge, this would've been match of the night.

Tommy Dreamer defeated Jack "Don't call me Dr. Death" Swagger & Christian for the ECW belt in an extreme rules match.

Batista defeated Randy Orton in a cage match for the WWE title.

Jeff Hardy defeated Edge for the World title in a ladder match.  This match easily stole the show.

CM Punk defeated Jeff Hardy for the World title when he cashed in the MITB briefcase directly after the ladder match.

Thanks for the recap...

CM Punk defeated Jeff Hardy for the World title when he cashed in the MITB briefcase directly after the ladder match.

So do we think the face-on-face crime is the impetus to turn Punk?  Didn't they do the "I'm straight edge so I'm better than you" program in OVW?

FYI Batista was "injured" on RAW tonite because he's going to have surgery to repair a torn tendon in his bicep tomorrow.  He could be back fairly soon since this isn't major surgery which I'm guessing is why there was no conclusive title change tonite.  This was the 2nd time that MiTB was cashed in at the Extreme Rules(formerly One Night Stand) PPV.

I read an interview with him a couple of weeks ago and he said he would like a heel run eventually but didn't feel if it did happen it wouldn't be anytime soon.


Btw Umaga got released today.

[TomasPistola]

TNA will snatch Umaga right up.

[Big Papa Satan]

Kennedy, now Umaga?

What is Vince thinking?

Cena can't wrestle and Big Show couldn't get a reaction if he shot a clown in the face. It was terrible. And the idea at the end was for Cena to put Show's foot in the ropes so he could just do the head part of the STF. Unfortunatly for him - shows foot slipped out and it looked like a crippler crossface. I mean, Cena went for an STF like 20 times in the match. Is that the only submission he knows? Put the "REAL" submission matches that Brett Hart, Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle, and others could have put on. WWE is full of hacks now.

Randy Orton complained about Kennedy being reckless in the ring, he nearly broke Orton's collarbone that was broken last year, and Umaga has an attitude problem. Those are the reasons I've heard for the respective releases.

Given Jeff Hardy's past transgressions I think it would be a good idea. Punk can be a top heel if they give him a chance. Future house shows have Punk teaming with heels so maybe this will happen. From what I read about the Smackdown tapings, he's not turning this week.

[TomasPistola]

I wish Cena would get injured again.

Umaga reportedly got released for violating the wellness policy and refusing to enter rehab.  You might remember when HHH "put him out of action" with a shot to the back of the head-  a result of his first violation

[jbell96]

I just read about the wellness issue. I did notice that he looked a bit slimmer when returned. He was a good upper mid card heel, but I didn't see him being much more than that. He'll be a good hand in TNA if he gets us crap together.

while on the subject of released wrestlers, the pnce released Masterpiece Chris Masters is coming back to wwe within the next month.
