Its been a whirlwind week for wrestling fans. Last Sunday at the WWE pay-per-view, Extreme Rules, Christian defeated Alberto Del Rio in a Ladder Match to win the vacated World Heavyweight Championship. It was a great moment and a deserved reward for the man who had worked his ass off for 13 years in the company. His celebration with Edge was awesome and it was one of those great moments that will be remembered for years to come.
Flash forward five days and Christian loses the belt to Randy Orton on Smackdown. Harsh. Its a real shame that the WWE pulled the belt off him so early, especially since the crowd was so excited about his victory. Maybe this is the beginning of a larger storyline, but in a time when the WWE is lacking big stars, why take the belt off someone who could benefit from it and put it around the waist of someone who doesn't need a title to be popular. It seems like a bad move, but we'll wait and see.
