WWE Championship Triple Threat Match

It will be every man for himself at Extreme Rules, when The Miz must defend his WWE Championship against not one, but two of Raw's top Superstars. Not only must the "Most Must-See WWE Champion" again contend with his WrestleMania opponent, John Cena, he must do so in a Triple Threat Match that also includes R-Truth.
In the weeks building up to WrestleMania XXVII, The Miz claimed to "own" Cena in the ring. His actions spoke louder than his words as he seemed to get the best of The Cenation Commander-in-Chief on several occasions, though none more so than on The Grandest Stage of Them All. Even though Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson proved instrumental in affecting the outcome before 71,617 fans, the fact remains that it was Miz who exited the Georgia Dome victorious, and prevented Cena from capturing his 10th World Championship at The Show of Shows.
Knowing this, it's understandable why a competitor like Cena so badly wanted to challenge The Miz for his title during the April 11 edition of Monday Night Raw. However, when Randy Orton, John Morrison, Dolph Ziggler (via Vickie Guerrero) and R-Truth argued for that same opportunity, the anonymous Raw General Manager decided that each Superstar would compete on Raw in a Five-Man Gauntlet Match, with the winner facing The Miz at Extreme Rules.
The Awesome One and his so-called "VP of Corporate Communications," Alex Riley, saw a perfect opportunity to take full advantage of this situation, especially after Truth, having bested Ziggler and Morrison, went one-on-one against Cena. The diabolical duo intervened during their contest, resulting in a double disqualification that left The Miz content and convinced no one would oppose him at the May 1 pay-per-view.
Thankfully, the Raw GM saw otherwise. To The Miz's utter surprise, he rendered a decision to name two No. 1 contenders in R-Truth and Cena. Now, instead of having no challengers for the WWE Title at the pay-per-view, The Miz must prove why he is WWE's Most Must-See Champion against what may be insurmountable odds: The Cenation Commander-in-Chief he defeated at WrestleMania, and the rapping Superstar he beat for the United States Title nearly a year ago.
