>>9734838Phil was on his (for the time) very long title run as a chickenshit heel. Ryback was given a monster push and got a title shot against Phil at hell in a cell, so it looked like he was absolutely doomed but the ref (Brad "Page Pounder" Maddox) low-blowed Ryback to help Phil win. Before that, Cena challenged Phil at Summerslam and Night of Champions, at summerslam Phil won because he pinned big show (who Cena was feuding with just before that), and at Night of Champions there was a """""double pinfall""""". This match was two of Phil's biggest threats, and the worst part was that Phil himself didn't even need to get pinned. Phil first won the title at survivor series one year prior, so Phil needed to win to pass the one year mark. The Shieldetty's debuted that night and helped Phil win.
