Once Del Rio secured the Money in the Bank briefcase, it was just a matter of time before he would become WWE Champion. Del Rio didn't wait long to cash in his contract, as he preyed on a vulnerable CM Punk after his WWE Championship match at SummerSlam and won the belt.
Del Rio has since been involved in a feud with John Cena and will have to defend his title against him at Night of Champions on Sunday. While many feel that Cena will recapture the gold, as he always seems to do before too long, Del Rio absolutely needs to retain.
Here are three reasons why a Del Rio win at Night of Champions is the only way to go.
Del Rio Needs a Legitimate Reign
Since winning the title, Del Rio has gotten mixed reviews from wrestling fans. Some find him interesting, great on the mic and solid in the ring. Others find his gimmick to be boring and don't see any redeeming qualities in him.
While I feel like he is fairly over as a heel, one way to ensure that he remains over is to give him a proper title reign of six months or more. There have been many failed title runs in recent years that could have worked out better had the creative team allowed for a longer reign with credible victories.
