World Heavyweight Championship: Jeff Hardy beat CM Punk to win the title

Jeff winning is soo goddamn dumb...that is all.

The most stupid results ever in WWE history. Orton still champ? Give it a break! Michelle winning, Maryse losing kofi retaining!! What is this! the only good thing to come out of it is Jeff winning. I hate Jeff and still think he sould never have become champ, but now that means the title goes away from Punk. Both Punk and Jeff don't deserve the title and I hope at the next PPV that it goes to someone more deserving. But SD's roster is kinda shit really. IMO.

Punk losing so quickly??? Mysterio defeating Ziggler? Maryse losing to Mickie? Jericho and... Big Show???

What the hell happened to WWE's supposed initiative to "create new stars?" The only thing they did was solidify Kofi (while defeating 5 other potential "new stars" in the process), and solidify Michelle (who I don't like, but at least she's something different).

My only problem with Jericho and Big Show winning is that it buried Rhodes and DiBiase in the process. What is the WWE's problem with giving serious pushes to someone new??? The heavyweight title pictures have gotten unbelievably stale.

Alrighty...Jericho should have teamed with Miz, Ziggler or TBK. Simple, Big Show didn't need this. What he did need was a main event push. Jericho could have carried a team with some different talent and some of Jericho's greatness could have rubbed off on them.

Mickie winning the title is always good. Michelle retaining...meh, would have been dumb to drop it back so quickly.

Don't mind that Orton retained, although it wouldn't have hurt for him to drop it to Cena. I predict a Orton/HBK feud when he returns...Hopefully though the HHH feud dies.

Ziggler should continue challanging Mysterio, honestly him winning in their first encounter would have been kinda lame. Build up a good story with those two, build up the IC title in the process. As long as Ziggler gets it in the end then it's all good.

Swagger shoulda won...I don't like Kofi.

And again them taking the title off Punk so soon was totally the wrong decision. His heel turn will suffer now, I bet that he starts complaining about losing his title and whatnot.

Oh and looks like DiBiase will leave the Legacy soon...

Meh, I'm glad that I didn't buy this PPV, because nothing except Randy retaining looked interesting. Big Show was Jericho's partner.. seriously? :/

And Dolph should have definitely beat Rey.. they've pushed this guy for weeks, and when it finally gets to him winning a title, they make him lose.

For me, Big as Jericho's partner is a let down, after a couple of weeks of speculation. I am pretty upset that CM Punk lost. I expected Mysterio to retain. I was happy that Mickie James won, I love Mickie James. I was not suprised that Orton won with the help of Rhodes and Legacy.

Big letdown. Obviously, with all the building that was going around Jericho and his partner and how less Legacy was built up, it should of been obvious that Jericho and his partner were going to retain. Think about it, it became more about who Jerichos partner is then the actually match, like when Dibiase Jr. first came. Which is why it was up to who his partner was to really deliver and they dropped it. I like how it was someone nobody reallly predicated but, Show was one of the worst choices. We need more heels in the main event, Orton can't be the only main heel and Show for the most part is already established as a main eventer and it wouldn't be that hard to get him over as one that stays as one for more than a month. Not keep him as a tag guy.

ECW Championship: Christian beat Tommy Dreamer to win the title

It's a shame that Dreamer's reign was short but, I'm a Christian mark so it doesn't really bother me that much. What bothers me is that they only reason WWE gave him the belt was so he would sign a new contract. I don't think we'll see him a champion again.

Both of these results were predictable. Everytime one of these matches happen (like the five man one two years ago) the title doesn't change, I expected the same. I wouldn't say it crushed five other potienal main eventers (as Primo isn't a potienal main eventer in my eyes) because he only pinned one of them, which I think was Primo or Carlito. Michelle was so obvious.

Not surpised, upset that Cena didn't win it but, not surpised. We knew HHH wasn't going to and from their it was more about who you wanted to win if you were disappointed or not. The Orton/HHH rivalry was going to continue whether Orton or Cena won. I wanted Cena to win because I haven't been high on Orton since the Rumble.

Love that Mickie won and not surpised either. Ziggler was going to win but, creative team changed their minds sunday afternoon and it's a good thing. All that would be accomplished if Ziggler won was the Intercontinetal Championship being devalued more, not a good thing for those complaining.

World Heavyweight Championship: Jeff Hardy beat CM Punk to win the title

This is the worst decision. Buisness wise, I guess during Jeff's short reign (I doubt he is staying past Summerslam) he can bring in more money through merchandise more than Punk but, in the long run this is just de-establishing CM Punk, which is just a really bad decision, especially with all the talk he has garnered with his recent heel turning.

I don't hate the Show/Jericho paring, I do however, agree that they missed a chace to build another main event heel because they basically have 3. Orton, Jericho, and Punk.
