— Randy Orton became a three-time World Heavyweight Champion by defeating Christian at last night’s SummerSlam pay-per-view. WWE had been going with the idea of another Orton vs. Christian match at September’s Night of Champions pay-per-view but last night’s match was billed as their “final encounter” on the SummerSlam pre-show.
— Cee-Lo Green was said to be very over with the WWE talents backstage at SummerSlam last night.
— Up until yesterday afternoon, Rey Mysterio was scheduled to face The Miz in singles action at SummerSlam. The decision was made to put them both in the six-man match with Alberto Del Rio, R-Truth, Kofi Kingston and John Morrison because they didn’t want to risk Rey doing further damage to his knee in a singles match. Rey is scheduled to face Del Rio for the WWE Title on tonight’s RAW.
— WWE announced last night that SummerSlam was sold out at the Staples Center with 17,404 fans in attendance.
