The Matches:
WWE Championship Match: Champion John Cena vs. Randy Orton
Events leading to this match: Cena beat Orton last month at SummerSlam. To prove that he was deserving of a rematch, Randy attacked Cena's father and gave him a concussion.
Rey Mysterio vs. Batista
Events leading to this match: Rey earned this title shot by winning a four man tournament on a recent edition of Friday Night SmackDown. He beat Batista in the semi-finals and Finlay in the finals. The next week, the Great Khali attacked Rey. Rey was saved by Batista who was then put into this match. Last month, Khali purposely disqualified himself in a battle against Batista so he could keep the title.
Women's Championship: Champion Candice Michelle vs. Beth Phoenix
Events leading to this match: At SummerSlam, Beth won a battle royal to earn this title shot.
World Tag Team Championship: Champions Trevor Murdoch & Garrison Cade vs. Paul London & Brian Kendrick
Events leading to this match: London and Kendrick earned this title shot by beating Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas. While on the SmackDown roster, London and Kendrick held the WWE Tag Team Championship from May 2006 until April 2007. While on tour of South Africa last week, the title changed hands twice between these teams.
The Undertaker vs. Mark Henry
Events leading to this match: The Undertaker has been out of action since May due to a vicious assault at the hands of Mark Henry shortly after a grueling steel cage match against Batista. A few moments later, Edge cashed in his Money in the Bank title shot and stole the World Heavyweight Championship from the Undertaker. Edge is currently out of action but Mark Henry has been getting cryptic messages during his matches.
WWE Tag Team Championship: Champions MVP & Matt Hardy vs. Deuce & Domino
Events leading to this match: MVP and Matt Hardy have been feuding for the past few months over the U.S. Title. In the midst of this feud, GM Teddy Long forced them to be tag team partners and fight Deuce & Domino for the tag team titles. MVP and Matt won that match and became champions. However, both men are as like to fight each other in this match as they are to fight Deuce and Domino.
No DQ for Carlito Only: Triple H vs. Carlito
Rules of the Match: Carlito can do anything he wants without getting disqualified while Triple H can be disqualified for doing something illegal.
Events leading to this match: Triple H interrupted a recent edition of Carlito's Cabana to make fun of his guest Vince McMahon. During this segment, Triple H insinuated that Carlito's sister could be the mother of Vince's illegitimate child and a few moments later he gave Carlito the pedigree.
ECW World Championship: Champion C.M. Punk vs. Elijah Burke
Events leading to this match: ECW GM Armando Estrada declared Burke the number one contender for the title that CM Punk won last week. The former champion, John Morrison, is one of the ten wrestlers recently suspended for violation of the Wellness Policy.
