This is awesome. Classic match and moment for Christian fans. I had begun to think his window had closed.
That made it all the better. I truly believe(d) that if he didn't win it during this Del Rio feud, he never would. It was his hope shot, and with the changes made during the draft and the ever-growing youth movement, there would just be others running with the belt. So in a way, I went into this match with a real life "last chance" mentality. High stakes. And I saw it going either way. In ladder matches, you can always get a feel for potential finishes in advance. So when Christian took out Del Rio and went for the belt, I thought he might have it. Then Brodus took him out. At that point, I figured it was over. That was his hope shot and Del Rio was going to get it. But then he took a long time and milked the cocky angle, and the Edge appearance sort of sealed it. That whole match really worked me good. Awesome stuff. |

Pretty pissed that I couldn't see it live. Thankfully it wasn't spoiled for me.
Ecstatic right now. The moment was up there with Benoit winning at WM20. The match was really good too. Awesome. |

Just take Tazz Dan's #5 spot. He's clearly a Broski.

TBF I should probably have got in there earlier than #6. Been a big fan for a long time. Use the guys picture for my c-fed character (who coincidentally became a 1st time World Champ a week ago) so I have a few hundred pictures of "Kristin" uploaded to photobucket/saved on my PC.
I'll settle for joint #6...unless Tazz Dan would like to donate #5 to me?? |

Does this make Christian the 1st man to hold both the World Heavyweight and NWA Championship....and the TNA World Championship?

Well he never held the TNA Title (after they dumped the NWA affiliation) so...NO.

Technically, he did. Although TNA lost the rights to the NWA titles, they still had physical possession of the belts (probably because the TNA belts weren't ready until the Impact tapings), which gave the impression that he lost the NWA title to Kurt Angle.

In 2003, The Rock and Christian met backstage, and "The Great One" had some words of advice your him:
Last night, in 2011, we saw the results:

I hope there is a huge celebration on Smackdown this week. There probably won't be. I won't read the spoilers this week in any case. Want to be "surprised", bro.

It was about time, an excellent match for him to win the title in, he won it 'against the odds', Edge didn't lay a hand on ADR or his cohorts. They booked him winning strongly.
I don't think everyone is going to cheer Orton and ignore the other faces on SD. Christian will have some time to get an Edge style following. If they give him the mic and get him being insulting about all the others, he'll be fine. Midcard for life. Pah. |

meh Christian winning the belt doesn't really mean much these days. Swagger and Khali both held the same belt
Still love Christian though |

Swagger had great moments like the time he dragged Rey Rey all over the arena by his leg. The poor guy needed a manager like Ziggler had, with Cole by his side I am sure Swagger can be a good champion.

Khali, Swagger, Punk, Ziggler, Hardy, Batista all did this already. Christian is late to the party.

Christiaaaannnnn Christttttttttttttian...
At last you're world champion!!! It's about 6 years overdue. He left because he wasn't feeling appeciated and he made a pretty impact in TNA for a few years. He came back and pretty much had to start at the bottom. He worked his way up and finally got his big chance in the main event picture, and then was injuried. I sort of thought that it might have been over that that point, but he fought back harder than ever cause that's just how he rolls. Here's to what I hope is a long-ass reign and Randy Orton you can go to hell and you die if you try to challenge him for that title.
