#3 John Cena vs. Alberto Del Rio - Night of Champions 2011
Trending
In what was supposed to be the Summer of Punk, the pay-per-view following SummerSlam saw Alberto Del Rio defending the WWE Championship against John Cena. As Punk was busy dealing with Triple H, it seemed likely that Del Rio would retain the belt against Cena and move on to an eventual feud with the Straight Edge Superstar.
But that didn't really work out all too well. Cena submitted Del Rio to win back the WWE Championship, in a move that didn't really make any sense whatsoever. Del Rio would end up winning the title once again inside Hell in a Cell, making the whole outcome at Night of Champions incredibly pointless.
It seemed like another way to give Cena a meaningless title run, and Alberto deserved more than that. By the time the Survivor Series match with Punk rolled around, Del Rio could have been holding onto the title for three months. It would've made things feel bigger, more important and Del Rio would come out of the event feeling like more of a star.
Let's follow up with Del Rio's second entry onto the list of shame.
