Night of Champions (2009) Predictions from July 20th

As I noted earlier, I'll be out of town until late Sunday night - so results and rankings for Night of Champions will be delayed as much as a day.  If you haven't signed up to be alerted by email when rankings are updated, you can do so now by clicking the settings link (if you are logged into the site) in the top-right.

I'll try to put up a blog post later this week with the latest standings.  And one with my personal predictions.  But I can't guarantee it.  So here are the current standings - including the new US Championship match announced tonight on Raw.

There is one more title match to be announced, the Women's Championship match (defended by Michelle McCool).  I will make sure that match is added to the card once it is announced.
