With the Draft being held early, Christian will win the World title at Extreme Rules. This will be the third pay-per-view since TLC where Del Rio was scheduled to win the title, but didn’t.
With Vince McMahon bringing the Draft sooner, plans will be changing. |
I actually like this better, as it continues to build Del Rio closer to the title and makes him look more credible when he does finally win. Plus, having him beat Cena for the WWE title (which I’ve always felt was more prestigious since it’s been around a lot longer) in the main event of SummerSlam would be a bigger rub than beating Edge for the World title in the opening of WrestleMania.
This could lead to Del Rio vs. Cena at Night of Champions for the title in a Loser Leaves RAW Match, where Del Rio retains the title (wishful thinking).
