So we most likely will see Triple H versus Randy Orton. Because Batista will be out at least a month (the WWE originally thought he could be out for four to five months), he cannot fulfill the obligation to defend the title in 30 days. Therefore, he would have to surrender the title.
Obviously they have something big in their plans for the WWE Championship.
Jeff Hardy did in fact hurt himself in the Ladder Match at Extreme Rules. He actually broke his finger and banged up his shoulder pretty bad. At least he and Matt now have another thing in common I guess.
As we saw, Hardy did still win the match, which meant he won the World Heavyweight Championship. His reign didn't last long, as CM Punk came out and cashed in Money in the Bank and took Hardy's newly won World Heavyweight Title.
Hardy joins an elite group by being one of the few who have won both the WWE and World Heavyweight Title within a year. Also, his reign is said to be the shortest for the World Heavyweight Title. That could be false, but I can not think of anyone else personally.
Edge was said to have hurt himself, too, in the fall from the ladder. Rumor has it that he may have a sprain or two. So, if we do not see either in action for very long you'll know why.
Lashley Interview About Kennedy
Recently, the "Busted Open" radio show had an interview with rumored future TNA Wrestler Bobby Lashley. They asked him about his MMA career and about TNA. But then they asked him about the release of Mr. Kennedy from the WWE. This is what he had to say:
"I've been punched in the face, kicked, [and] I've been hammered left and right by several different people. I never went crying and said, 'Oh, he hit me too hard.' That's just part of the business of wrestling. It ain't volleyball. It ain't tee-ball.
"They're grown men, most of which being well conditioned grown men... I had several matches with Kennedy and I never left the match and said, 'Oh, man, you hit me too hard.' I liked the way he worked.
"I didn't think he was too stiff. I worked a lot of people who are top guys that are a lot stiffer than him. Some of the veterans would even say that they work a little snugger out there. It kind of helps. I don't mind if someone works stiff with me because it helps me react a little better. It helps me get into the match a little more."
Lashley of course has his opinion on what kind of wrestler he prefers to face, but you have to agree with him about the fact that some go crying to management too much. I understand if he injures people every single time he is in the ring. But he hasn't hurt that many people.
Also, I feel Kennedy was not treated right. Vince was already mad because of the "Denver Debacle." Therefore Vince was in no mood to hear of any other bad news and anyone who got just a bit on his bad side was a victim.
I think Kennedy was one of those victims, as he was released for simply botching a suplex on Orton. This by the way, did not actually hurt Orton. He may have almost, but he freakin' didn't!
This was only his second match back, and first on WWE TV. You pair that with the fact that it is the main event in front of a massive crowd and the WWE should have understood.
