Christian Returns To Pay-Per-View; Wins WWE Intercontinental Championship

Richard Gray May 20, 2012 WWE News 9 Comments

Christian returned to pay-per-view tonight at WWE Over the Limit, winning a Number One Contender Battle Royal to open the show which he used to face Cody Rhodes for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. He went over, winning the WWE Intercontinental Championship for the fourth time in his career.

Christian, who suffered a high ankle sprain in November 2011, returned briefly in March but was sidelined again after aggravating the same injury. He returned to the ring during WWE’s post-Wrestlemania tour in the United Kingdom last month but had not been seen on television.

I’m glad Christian is back, however I wish he would have returned and won the wwe title. If or whenever he does that Christian well become the only wrestler to have held the tna, nwa, ecw, world, and wwe heavyweight titles. That will make him a legend and a guaranteed future hall of famer.

I'm happy for Christian to return as a face and hold the Intercontinental Championship for a good while. Let Cody chase the World Championship with Sheamus and have a returning Wade Barret chase Christian for his belt.

He obviously deserves a main event spot but for now at least they recongnise he exists.
