Alberto Del Rio Vs. Christian At Summerslam


Christian gets one more match. He won a match to become #1 contender for the World's Heavyweight Championship. He will face Alberto Del Rio at Summerslam.

Even though I am not against Christian getting a title shot and even winning back the title, I don't like this match. It doesn't seem big enough for Summerslam. The WWE Championship match will be John Cena vs. Daniel Bryan, with Mr. McMahon hovering in the background, without even mentioning Randy Orton. John Cena is the top guy of the company. Daniel Bryan is the most over guy right now. Throw in the McMahons into the feud and you have something worthy of the biggest PPV of the summer. Alberto Del Rio vs. Christian doesn't have a big feel to it. Yes, Christian has won the title before, twice. But they were pathetic reigns. Yes, Christian has been on win streak as of late. How many credible jobbers in the diva division have been on win streaks, jobbed to a star above them, then fell into mediocrity? I am not denying Christian's ability in the ring. But for the sake of a big match for the World's Heavyweight Championship at Summerslam, they could do better.

How would I do better? Seeing as it may not be possible to add a great storyline into the feud they have now between Christian and Del Rio, I would throw in a few more bodies. Fatal four-way would be nice. RVD is still a guy I think should be in there. Who gets the final spot? Seeing as how Orton has the briefcase, I wouldn't pick him. Besides, I would still like to see him sell an injury angle. Dolph Ziggler is busy with his own feud. Mark Henry? Sheamus? Big Show? Jack Swagger?  Even Miz? Take any guy with nothing major to do and who has held a major title before. That guy, RVD, and Christian would challenge Alberto Del Rio. If it is an elimination-style match, have it come down to Del Rio and Christian. Alberto sneaks out the win, but Christian is able to earn a singles match for the title at Night of Champions, where he does win the title. There is more build that way and Summerslam gets a bigger match.
