WWE News: World Title match pulled from SummerSlam

The World Heavyweight Championship match featuring Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio has been pulled from the SummerSlam lineup. The announcement was made by Smackdown general manager Booker T in a video that can be viewed at WWE.com.

Powell's POV: The story is that Booker pulled the match to punish Del Rio for his attack on Sheamus at the end of Friday's Smackdown television show. One can only assume we'll still get a World Hvt. Championship match at SummerSlam, but it remains to be seen whether the match will be changed. Could this be the way they add Randy Orton to the show? Thanks to Dot Net reader Michael Grooms for pointing out the video.
