Rey Mysterio Wins WWE Championship

This Monday on Raw the finals for the WWE Championship tournament was held. The show started with Rey Mysterio and The Miz competing in the finals for the vacated WWE Championship. 

It was a great match, but Miz was still suffering the effects of his knee injury from when he fell off the top of the ladder at the Money In The Bank PPV and the crowd was behind Rey to finally put an end to The Miz. That is exactly what Rey did. Rey hit the 619 then his Ironman like dive off the top rope and a splash onto The Miz. Rey got the 3 count clean in the middle of the ring to defeat The Miz in the final round of the tournament which was the last act of former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. With this victory, Rey became the WWE Champion for the very first time in his career!

However, as soon as Rey won the title, Miz jumped him from behind after the match and left him laying dead in the ring. Then, of course, Alberto Del Rio's music hit and he rushed to the ring carrying his Money In The Bank briefcase ready to cash it in and take advantage of a weakened Rey. Shockingly, Rey launched himself out of the ring and onto Del Rio who was stunned and retrieved his briefcase and ran away, presumably to bide his time and wait for a better opportunity when he could be more successful.

As Rey walked back behind the curtain, every Raw superstar, who had been watching the match on the monitor backstage and cheering him on, were all waiting to congratulate him as soon as he made his way to the back. Then John Cena walked over and shook his hand before everyone else could start pouring champagne all over Rey as a wild celebration took place....
