Triple H

WWE No Mercy 2007 Results

Aside from a great Last Man Standing match, No Mercy was a huge disappointment this year.

John Cena Football Jersey

Below Expectations Most fans went into No Mercy with lowered expectations. The show only announced six matches, and fans were left in the dark about what the actual main event was going to be. Even with the lowered experience, the show failed to deliver. It was a subpar pay per view with only one good match (Triple H and Randy Orton in the Last Man Standing main event match). Rey Mysterio and Finlay weren't allowed to show what they can really do because management wanted to focus on a fake injury angle. It was a great acting job by Finlay, but it wasn't needed. Fans wanted to see a great match between these two great performers. The Punjabi Prison match between Batista and the Great Khali wasn't as bad as people expected it to be. Batista did a tremendous job considering the environment. The match between Umaga and Triple H was understandably short, so it wasn't anything special. The match between Candice Michelle and Beth Phoenix failed to generate much interest despite the title switch. The six man tag team match involving Mr Kennedy, Lance Cade, Trevor Murdoch, Jeff Hardy, Paul London, and Brian Kendrick felt like something you would see on Monday Night Raw. The match between CM Punk and Big Daddy V was beyond disappointing.

Closing Thoughts

You're going to hear a lot of fans say that the pay per view was good, but that's not the case. It's basically people wanting so badly to believe that life without John Cena is going to be great that they'll blindly overrate everything now.

Batista beat Great Khali

The Punjabi Prison match was a good idea since it helped cover up Great Khali's flaws. Batista did as good of a job as he could considering the situation.

Kennedy, Cade & Murdoch Win

Kennedy, Cade, and Murdoch teamed up against Hardy, London, and Kendrick. This was supposed to be a "bonus" match, but it didn't feel like a bonus.

We have ourselves a new WWE Women's Champion. The title switch was done so that WWE can write some storylines with Candice as an underdog challenger.

In the first match of the night, Triple H again captured the WWE Heavyweight Championship from Randy Orton. However, that reign wouldn't last long.

Rey Mysterio vs Finlay

The match ended up in a no contest after Finlay convincingly pretended to be injured . He then attacked Rey Mysterio. We smell a rematch at Cyber Sunday.

As expected, the match was quick and ended in a DQ. Fans would have been happier with an actual match between CM Punk and Tomy Dreamer instead.

Randy Orton beat Triple H

In the final match of the night, Randy Orton regained the title that he lost less than 2 hours ago. This match helped to keep the pay per view from flopping.

In order to keep Triple H from looking too weak, management had him defend the title against Umaga first. They sold it like Triple H had injured his ribs.
