- All world heavyweight titles changed hands yesterday at Extreme Rules and one title in particular changed hands more than once in the same night as CM Punk cashed in his Money in the Bank to become the new World Heavyweight champion after Jeff Hardy defeated Edge in the Ladder Match to become a two time world champ.

Hardy's celebrations didn't last very long and as Jim Ross was about to interview the new champ, Punk's music hit and the match was under way. Punk hit the GTS but Hardy kicked out and then Jeff locked Punk in a small package pin but Punk also kicked out in the last second.

CM Punk hit his second GTS and this time scored the pinfall becoming the only person who won the MITB ladder match back-to-back and being successful in both his attempts when cashing in.

Randy Orton also lost his WWE title inside a steel cage in his match against "The Animal" Batista while Tommy Dreamer finally won the ECW World title beating Christian and Jack Swagger in a triple threat hardcore rules match.

In other matches, Chris Jericho defeated Rey Mysterio to win the Intercontinental title in a no holds barred match; John Cena defeated the Big Show in a submission match; CM Punk defeated Umaga in a Samoan strap match; Kofi Kingston retained his US title against MVP, William Regal and Matt Hardy; and Santina Marella defeated Vickie Guerrero in a hog pen match to regain the Miss WrestleMania crown.
