  1. Edge: 3x WWE Champion, 2x World Champion

    Christian: 2x TNA Champion

     

    That makes 8 reigns between them.

     

    A couple of facts regarding tonight's title change:

     

    Jeff Hardy is the 90th WWE Champion and only the 38th man to hold the title since its inception in 1963.

     

    This is the first time a World title has changed hands in Buffalo, NY since September 17, 2000 when Booker T defeated Kevin Nash in a cage match at Fall Brawl.

     

    Jeff Hardy is only the 4th man to win the WWE Championship after a top-rope maneuver. Randy Savage (pinning Ted DiBiase at WrestleMania IV after an elbowdrop), Eddie Guerrero (pinning Brock Lesnar at No Way Out 2004 after a frogsplash), and Rob Van Dam (pinning John Cena at ECW One Night Stand 2006 after a Five-Star Frog Splash) are the only other men to have accomplished this feat.


  2. You may have noticed that WWE has been conducting double Smackdown tapings on various Tuesday nights, except when it is not possible due to scheduling. Look for that trend to continue, at least until Wrestlemania, reports the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. At that point, WWE will evaluate the situation. The plan is to continue to tape ECW on Monday nights along with the live Raw show until February.

     

     

    Eliminating one taping saves WWE almost $700,000 in production expenses, and is likely to be apart of WWE's plan to cut $20 million in expenses from the budget.
