Night of Champions Recap
Well Night of Champions has come and gone and I was somewhat surprised by a few things. Jeff Hardy is the new World Heavyweight Champion which is cool. Hardy and Punk are having some great matches right now and I hope they will continue. The surprise match of the night was Dolph Ziggler taking on IC Champ Rey Mysterio. Ziggler proved he could hang tonight against the best. I was also enjoyed the Unified Tag Title match between Legacy and Chris Jericho/Big Show. Yes Big Show is Jericho’s new tag team partner.
My favorite part of the night was watching Christian winning back the ECW Championship. Christian is a great wrestler and has been better in WWE his second time around. I think when the time is right he and Edge need to reunite again. WWE needs more legitimate tag teams. The triple match between Cena/HHH/Orton absolutely sucked. Same old crap, different day. Legacy interferes as always and helps Orton. It’s so damn repetitive it’s ridiculous. If I wanted to watch repeats of bad wrestling I’d watch MTV’s Wrestling Society X, which was the worst wrestling show of all time….Yes I mean of all time.
Right now WWE does not interest me because it’s to predictable and repetitive. However that all might change. It is rumored the showstopper, Shawn Michaels might be returning soon for Summerslam. If thats the case I will be happy because as most of you know Shawn Michaels is my favorite wrestler of all time…You read this right. Hogan was my hero growing up but Michaels in ring work plus his faith outside of wrestling is why he has become my favorite.
So on a scale out of 1 to 10 I would rate Night of Champion a 6.5/10. It was decent but not great. I hope Summerslam will put all of these PPV’s to shame. There really hasn’t been a good one yet this year. The biggest party of the year is coming soon. Stay tuned
