WWE No Mercy 2007 Results

WWE Championship Situation
Vince came out with Coach and repeated what he said on ECW - That Cena had suffered a pec tear and that he would be out for up to a year. Vince then once again announced that a new WWE Champion WOULD be crowned. He then introduced the new WWE Champion - Randy Orton. Vince told Orton that he (Orton) could pick his opponent for the night. Orton then cut a promo saying that he there was no one in the WWE that could match up to him (Orton). Out came Triple H (Here we go...). Triple H then challenged Orton to which he replied 'No'. Vince then interjected to tell Triple H that Orton said no. Triple H then started to make fun of Vince to the point that Vince said 'Your On' and called for a ref right then and there. A ref then came out and Triple H beat Orton in a semi-short, but decent match with a rollup to become the new WWE Champion. Triple H was later shown in the back recovering when Vince came in and told him that his match with Umaga was still on and was going to be for the title. Triple H went on to beat Umaga later in the night. Later on while Triple H was recovering from the match with Umaga Vince came in and told him that Orton was invoking his rematch clause later in the night and the match would be a Last Man Standing match. The LMS match was pretty good except for the terribly slow 10 counts. During one of the 10 counts Triple H didn't make it to his feet, but the ref pretended that he had beat the count and the match continued. There were several near finishes until Orton RKO'd Triple H on the announcer's table. That time Triple H couldn't make it to his feet and Orton regained the WWE Championship; his second title reign of the night. I think that it was a good move for them to further cement him as the top babyface on RAW (or WWE) at this point and to have him fall short at the end of the night by having Orton go over him. There is one thing that I don't like about the whole thing - The fact that it kinda reeks of the stunt that TNA pulled with having Angle wrestle thrice in one night. Other than that I think it was pretty good last-minute booking. I could go back on my word and give myself a point for a correct pick since I said that Orton would walk out with the title, but I won't.

Punjabi Prison match for the World Heavyweight
Championship
Batista (c) vs. The Great Khali
In a surprise move both guys climbed both cages albeit very, very slow. Both men crossed over the top of the outer cage at about the same time. Khali cimbed down, but Batista kinda jumped/fell down (while still holding on loosley). Batisat touched first to retain the title.
Me: 1/1
Dave: 1/1

Triple H vs. Umaga
As I stated before, Triple H won.
Me: 2/2
Dave: 2/2

ECW Championship: CM Punk (c) vs. Big Daddy V
I wasn't paying attention, but I know that BDV got DQ'd.I think Striker interfered. No Morrison though.
Me: 3/3
Dave: 3/3

Finlay vs. Rey Mysterio
Who gives a shit what happened? I don't. Rey won.
Me: 4/4
Dave: 4/4

WWE Women's Championship
Candice Michelle (c) vs. Beth Phoenix
Beth won and then cut a post-match promo about the beginning of the age of the Glamazon.
Me: 5/5
Dave: Didn't make a pick. 4/4

I DID IT! I DID IT! PERFECT PICKS! I KICK ASS! 5 OUT OF 5! Oh Yeah, Dave got perfect picks too. He only got 4 out of 4 right though so I did better. If I would have given myself credit for the Orton win I would have gotten 6 out 0f 6. What I should do is hold Dave to his Cena pick so he wouldn't have perfect picks. I could also throw out Punk's win since Dave didn't know the actual match when he made his prediction. I could give Dave an incorrect pick for the Women's match since he probably would have picked Melina eventhough she wasn't going to be in the match. So he should get a 3/6 to be honest. I will be magnanimous (sic?) and give Dave the 4/4, but I reserve the right to change my mind later.

One last thing. Kennedy and Cade & Murdoch defeated Jeff Hardy and London & Kendrick in a 6-man tage match. It looks like Kennedy may be starting a feud with Jeff Hardy and perhaps on his way to getting Hardy's IC Title. Also, Matt Hardy and MVP continued their competitions by having a Chicage Deep Dish Pizza eating contest. Hardy won be eating 2 slices in 2 minutes compared to MVP's 0 peices in 2 minutes. After the match MVP accused Hardy of cheating and Hardy 'puked' all over MVP's white tracksuit.
