All right, i’m after seeing that quite a large part of the IWC were not too fond of the PPV from Sunday night. Did I like it? Yea, I enjoyed it, some parts were little unorthodox. So, I thought i’d write up a column on how I would’ve booked Night of Champions. It’s not a fully ”How I’d Book it” column, just more on the finish really. It’s straight to the point.
Air Boom vs. Awesome Truth
We’ll stick with how the much was won, but after the match, something better could of and should of been done. I would of booked it that Awesome Truth would of gotten more heat coming out of the match than what they went into it. So match is over, AT (Awesome Truth) start blaming the referee and they just explode on him. After they are finished with the referee, they move in and beat up Air Boom with chairs. It would get even more heat on them. I was sorta anticipating this to happen after the match was over.
Dolph Ziggler vs. Jack Swagger vs. Alex Riley vs. John Morrison for the United States Championship
Right, I would of booked Jack Swagger to get the pin to progress the the Ziggler feud, Swagger doesn’t pin Ziggler, he pins either Riley or Morrison. This would of led to Hell in a Cell PPV, where they would’ve had their blown-off match to end the feud.
Kelly Kelly vs. Beth Phoenix for Divas Championship
The Diva division has slightly progressed over the last couple weeks. I’m kinda surprised Kelly Kelly walked away Champion, I really am. So, I would’ve had Beth win by the GlamSlam (Think its what its called), cleanly without the help of Natatlya. The crowd would’ve gone nuts! In her hometown. Moving on to RAW tonight, Natalya congratulates Beth on her win, but things start to get itchy bitchy between them. They start fighting, Kelly comes out and reminds that she has a rematch, so it would be announced at Hell in a Cell a triple threat natch for the Divas championship.
Cody Rhodes vs. Ted DiBiase for the Intercontinental Championship
DiBiase doesn’t do the mask spot. Rhodes/DiBiase goes to HIAC and DiBiase hits the mask spot and a dream street for the win. This gives Ted something to do and it free Rhodes up to go beyond the IC title. Plain, simple, moves on.
Randy Orton vs. Mark Henry World Hevt. Championship
I really enjoyed how this match was booked. I simply enjoyed it, no need to comment on this one.
Alberto Del Rio vs John Cena for WWE Championship
John Cena won, I am so shocked, oh wait now, i’m not. It made no sense Cena winning this one, I know he won so he’ll have the belt when it’s time to face the Rock, but that could of been won at Royal Rumble or around that time. Couple reasons why. Del Rio practically just won the belt, why take it off him? He should of had it, also because he would of really made him look like a Champion and put him over as one. How would I of booked the ending? Either Cena gets himself disqualified or Del Rio made Cena tap. Either way would’ve been better for me to watch anyway, if that was to of happened.
Triple H vs. CM Punk 
A lot of my timeline was complaining that Punk lost, really? Like come one people, Punk had to of lost that match. I ask this question…. Would it of made sense for Triple H to lose after he just took on the roll as COO? No, it would not of made sense. WWE aren’t stupid. Okay, they book stupidly many times, but that’s not the point. It would of taken all creditably Triple H had, away. I liked how this match ended, most people didn’t like it due to interference’s and shit. But, I don’t know whats gonna happen next with this storyline, it ain’t over, not by a long shot, so you can’t judge that its horrible just yet. Just watch it, enjoy it, wait to see what happens next. Also, Punk wasn’t made look weak either, it took more than one Pedigree to finish him off, plus all the outside interference’s.
I know it’s a couple days after the PPV, but what do you think? Did WWE satisfy your moneys worth? Are you still interested as you were 3 months back? Basically, your thoughts and if you wanna share how you would’ve booked it; I love reading. So i’ll read them and reply back. You don’t need to be registered to comment below, you can simply just use a name or be anonymous.
It’s short this week than usual but i’m real busy this week, so it’s all I got time for. Thanks for reading.

Tag Title: I’m just glad Air Boom won. Those 2 need that build more than Miz/Truth.
4-Way: At least they had Ziggler stealing the win after Swagger do the move.
Diva Title: The longer KK has the title, the more she will improve and she’s already done that quite a bit.
Int. Title: Too soon for Ted Jr. to win. Give him a couple cracks, then he goes over.
WHC: The problem I have is that I can buy Henry beating midcarders and upper-midcarders, and I can buy him beating up Orton, but I don’t buy him beating Orton in a match. I would’ve had Henry have a couple good matches with Orton, then beat him.
WWE Title: I don’t mind this. People aren’t into Del Rio. They should’ve built him up more brfore giving him a main title.
Punk/HHH: Messy, but very fun. I have no real problem with it.

About Kelly Kelly, iv’e just felt she had her fun, and I just don’t see her getting stronger or more over. If Beth won, it would of gotten a HUGE pop. It would’ve been like Trish beating Lita in Toronto.

Gimmick Infringement again…Just kidding. I plan on what also writing some How I WOULD HAVE Booked articles in addition to my How I WOULD Book articles but in my opinion, it’s too easy to book something when it already happened. I like a challenge but that said, I have great idea for a column for how I would have booked that whole Miz Cena Rock storyline before WrestleMania.
as for your column, I agree Awesome Truth should have attacked Air Boom after the match. That’s something I wrote in my NOC preview column. If they attacked Air Boom then that means they were planning to continue their feud with Air Boom. Instead, now it looks like it’s Awesome Truth vs. the WWE.
Also: I agree that Cena shouldn’t have won the title and I also do think it was right for CM Punk to lose but I wanted Triple H to come out of the match as a heel which clearly did not happen.

haha, When I started WR, I always had planned to do a weekly ”How I’d Book it” column, but i’m only starting to grow in confidence to do them 🙂
Punk and the Triple H match, I am not sure if they were ever going to be ah heel and face in all this. It was just to show how great Triple H is as being the COO and coming out on top, but still Punk wasn’t made look weak with the interference’s.

Thinking about it now, I’m somewhat surprised that AirBoom didn’t come back to help the referee. So maybe doing that could get them back into the ring for the chair attack you suggested.
I would’ve saved Henry’s title win for HIAC. All the destruction and Hall of Pain hype coming to ahead in a HIAC match.
I also wouldve booked interference in the HHH/Punk match, in the form of Stephanie (or she can send out a text, commanding someone to interfer). It would explained the next night on RAW that management of the company is something you don’t risk. HHH would be upset with this, feeling that his ability is being undermined. Punk could cut almost the same promo from RAW; there is a conspiracy, but HHH isn’t to blame.
Or…
Punk wins clean, going over the much older, HHH. This would get HHH heat from “other management,” and would, in the longterm, further HHH’s transition from wrestler to a “Mr. McMahon” role. Don’t fret, he’ll end up keeping his COO position.

Yea, with that theory of pain and destruction, the HIAC match would’ve been the perfect match type for him to win the belt, it probably would be more memorable too.
Stephanie, WWE have something cool planned for her I think, along with Vince, it could be a separate storyline so maybe that’s why your booking idea didn’t happen??
LikeLike
Yeah, HIAC would’ve been a better place for Henry to win. I will say that it wouldn’t shock me of Orton won the title back in the Cell due how sadistic his character can be.

This is what WWE just do with the world title belts, they pull a good job off with the title matches every now and again then they completely F it up with the short reigns and the same few guys winning it. Henry NEEDS to have that belt for a good 6 months. Then, Bryan will be a real underdog going into WM to face him. Its David vs. Goliath. Bryan should win, there you have it, a good strong title reign and Henry puts Bryan over.
