Let me be the first to point out that the Night Of Champions poster does not feature the WWE or world heavyweight champion; you know, as the title of the PPV may indicate the titles matter and all. Just like pretty much every PPV in recent memory was main evented by someone other than the world or WWE champion. At this point I'm not sure why they even still have the belts.

An excellent point. It'll be interesting to see if they let Cena take the title back in his home town... WWE isn't known for being nice to home town appearances, but they did let Punk do it in Chicago.
I assume they'll have a good match for Miz.... I'm sure Sheamus will squash someone else.

But that's because he's Cena.

Oh hey look, it's two matches that aren't fresh at all! At least it looks like the WWE Championship is gonna main event the show!

Will this be the 1st time since Punk's been champ? Unless they invent a title for HHH to fight for between now and then.. maybe he'll fight Brock for the 'King of Kings' title or some nonsense.

Yeah, it's the first time Punk's went on last since the December PPV. By the way, we're NINE PPVS INTO THE YEAR and we're just now having the "#1 title" in a main event.

Pretty enjoyable PPV overall... I liked the results, matches were good.
Only thing I didn't like was the Miz in the fatal four way... they played it almost like a tag match... yes, Rey and Sin Cara kicked at each other once, and Miz and Cody did the same, but it FELT like a tag match. Even so, the ending was decent.
LOVE Kane and Danielson winning.. liked the draw on Punk-Cena, guess they'll main event Hell in a Cell, which is fine with me.
No idea what's next for Super Sheamus... maybe they turn Orton (finally)? Barrett? Smackdown seems pretty weak right now.
The pre-show battle royal was even fun... Brodus looked good, PTP looked good.. and Ryder got to do his thing.
