Why not? He's a big solid guy, who has a unique style. 'CM Punk will never be World Champion in WWE' 'Rey Mysterio will never be a World Champion anywhere' 'They will NEVER put the World Title on The Great Khali' These things happen.

No way man, Regal and Burchill as a duo, though.. That would be awesome again. Make Katie-Lea their manager and they might just come close to the Hart Dynasty. Nowhere near the music, though.

It'll probably get over for Cody Rhodes. He needs to add a little more muscle mass. Orton looks like a superstar, DiBiase looks like he'll be a superstar, but Rhodes just looks like a skinny white kid. Big props for him wearing boots that don the Tri-Force though.

Farewell, June!

Oh, and to think they haven't messed up the ECW routine TOO much, they've taken The Hart Dynasty away!

Click here to see Ted DiBiase's entrance next week I've not shown the video direct as it might give a semi-spoiler away, but it's a super obvious spoiler that ANYONE should get. The spoiler is, obviously,

Spoilers for next week:

You guys are nuts. Jethro Holiday will be World Champion in 2 years time.

ECW has REALLY had its main event fucked. Swagger, Henry AND Bourne all out? And they're replaced by SHELTON BENJAMIN AND WILLIAM REGAL?!?!! They're WWE'ing up the best show, damn it.

Maybe when they swing through Hollywood or Florida, they might be able to pull The Rock out for a few segments. No wrestling involved, a few live mic battles, you never know.

Yes, but

If true, that's ridiculous. They've done such a good job of too.

World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk vs. Jeff Hardy At The Bash, the fateful roads of squared-circle passion and championship retribution will collide, as World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk puts his World Heavyweight Championship on the line against Jeff Hardy. WWE Champion Randy Orton vs. Triple H After Mr. McMahon bought Raw back from Trump (at twice the price), the enraged Chairman arranged for the WWE Title to be contested in a match that WWE hasn't seen in nearly seven years: A Three Stages of Hell Match. It is a 2-out-of-3 Falls Match, in which the first match will be a straight-forward wrestling match, the second a Falls Count Anywhere Match and the third, if necessary, will be a Stretcher Match. ECW Championship Scramble Match In order to keep his most prized possession as ECW Champion, Tommy Dreamer will not only have to defeat Christian again, but Jack Swagger, Mark Henry and Finlay as well. The five Superstars are poised to square off in an ECW Championship Scramble Match at The Bash to determine who is worthy of touting the title. Women's Champion Melina vs. Michelle McCool (Women's Championship Match) Women’s Champion Melina will put her title on the line against Michelle McCool in the ultimate clash of Diva dominance to decide which of the smart, sexy and beautiful women has he right to reign supreme on Friday nights. Intercontinental Championship vs. Mask: Chris Jericho vs. Rey Mysterio At The Bash, Intercontinental Championship Chris Jericho will go head-to-head with Rey Mysterio for the third time in less than two months. But this time, Mysterio is risking his mask for another chance to win the gold that both Superstars hold so dear. John Cena vs. The Miz After weeks of listening to The Miz boast about his so-called undefeated streak against John Cena, the former champ announced that he will finally get his hands on the self-proclaimed “chick magnet” at The Bash. Unified Tag Team Champions Carlito & Primo vs. Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase If there’s one thing the underhanded duo of Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase desire, it’s gold. And just like their Legacy leader, Randy Orton, they are willing to do anything to get it. Now, the Priceless duo has set their sights on Carlito & Primo’s Unified Tag Team Championships, and will get their opportunity at the titles at The Bash.

Well, Punk was working 80/20 in the favour of heel, they're supposed to be annoyed that he kept the belt. It's a slow-burn turn, the heat will be off the charts when the official turn comes.

Only because he's not got an Undertaker around. Jeff's the only main event face on SmackDown! at the moment, isn't he? Edit: There's John Morrison, but outside of a win over Punk, he hasn't been pushed enough as Jeff for the fans to care as much.

Oh my god. Remember when Miz and Morrison were on every show? I sincerely hope the same happens with Edge and Jericho regularly.

Multiple previous drug offences plus (an alleged) refusal to sign a new contract = No World Title.

I think Edge over the space of the last year or so could easily pull off an amazing face turn. He's just the kinda guy you love to be around.

So... A cross between Rey Mysterio & Batista? It's Santino!

Okay.. I'm watching the new Macho Madness DVD.. WrestleMania 6, Macho Man/Sherri vs Sapphire/Dusty Rhodes. Why on earth are Dusty and Sapphire coming down to the Wheel Of Fortune music!

His feud with Cena possibly ended 2 weeks ago, but they didn't have a final proper blow off.

Ah. John Morrison. Calling it now.

I wonder what they're doing with Punk next month at Night Of Champions. Rumour has it last night was Jeff's last show for a good long while as he'd arranged before hand to take time off. If that's true, who's going to challenge Punk? Edge and Jericho have taken themselves out of the running last night, Dolph isn't ready yet, Rey Mysterio has only just won the IC Title.. Kane and Khali have taken themselves out of it last night, so who's left for Punk?
