NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS, Year 4

The night where all the titles on the line.

Match 1. John Cena vs. Wade Barrett  United States Championship
Wade landed a nice sit-out powerbomb. He then got out of the corner and landed Wasteland, but Cena got up. After a 5-knuckle Shuffle, Cena hit the AA. Cena then got the 3 count after a tilt-a-whirl slam.

Match 2Jeri-Show vs. Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel  WWE Tag Team Championship
For some reason, Show and Jericho were having a hard time putting Justin and Heath away. Jericho connected with a heel kick that sent Slater out of the ring. A few minutes later, Jericho hit Slater with a Codebreaker. Show and Jericho kept Gabriel away from Slater. Show hit Gabriel with the WMD and won.

Match 3Jeff Hardy vs. Cody Rhodes  Intercontinental Championship
Cody landed a clothesline and a suplex, trying to wear down Jeff. Jeff flipped Cody over his head, planting him face first into the mat. He then picked Cody up and connected with the Twist of Fate to win.

Match 4. Undertaker vs. Mark Henry  WWE Championship
Henry had Taker up for a torture rack, but that was the extent of Henry's offense. Taker landed a DDT and a leg drop. After a two count, Taker hit the Last Ride and Tombstone to retain the title.

Match 5. CM Punk vs. Randy Orton vs. Triple H  World Heavyweight Championship
Orton and Punk spent a good amount of time battling each other while The Game watched. Triple H brought in a chair. He then hit Orton with a spine buster. Punk hit Orton with a GTS. Triple H hit Punk with a Pedigree. Triple H hit Punk with a hip toss and got the pin as Orton just walked around the ring.

Main Event. Jack Swagger vs. Triple H  World Heavyweight Championship
Swagger is cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase. Swagger held his own as he hit the gutwrench outside the ring. Triple H fought back and hit a DDT and piledriver. Triple H busted Swagger open with a knee smash. After a spine buster and a second Pedigree, Triple H retained the title.

After the match, a WWE official checked on Swagger.

Recap: I want Cena to lose the US Title, but I don't think he ever will. Poor Swagger with an unsuccessful cash-in.
