It was good to see Stevie Richards in there, and lasting longer than they usually let him. So far this special is very good.

Wheres bwo they have nova richards but wheres blu meanie.

On Ecwv.wwe I think the announcing was the best part.

Which matches did you watch?

BTW which one of those would you consider the best match?

All of the videos that I posted are great matches but the best videos that I recently posted are Jushin Liger vs Great Muta and Kenta Kobashi vs KENTA.

John cena was going to win against Sabu in that STFU, until Show came...

Tonight is one weird heck of a show. :/

Oh, man. Big Show on ECW! That's kinda neat, I think. RAW's terrible at using him, and the presentation in that match was priceless.

*RIIIP*

So, looks like there's been a lot of botches since the ECW storyline started.

Cena botched the Vandaminator.

Sabu botched his leg drop a couple of days ago.

Edge missed the table and his the mat.

RVD slipped when trying to balance on the wall.

And I'm not sure of this, but my little brother suspects that the Mysterio and RVD match ended sooner than intended, and now that I think about it, he's probably right. Mysterio shoved the chair out of the way of the frog splash, but didn't move himself, and you could see RVD faking the belly-pain that usually comes from missing such a maneuver. They also dragged out the celebration a LOT.

P.S. Quote of the night: "ECW Divas don't have puppies, they have rotweilers!"

As far as Meanie goes, he says in his blog that wwe has not contacted him yet, and is unsure if they will. I'd like meanie to be there, he was alwasy fun to watch.

Yeah there have been a few missed spots, but hey, it happens.

Know whats lop-sidded? They talk to death about Cena and the wwe title but hardly mention the WHT. I don't want them to lame duck SD, it;s a damn good show, they just are doing a crappy job in the booking. you can't tell me they don't have a talented roster, even with all the trades and injuries.

I thought Benoit and Malinko were going to have a match against each other but I heard that is was cancelled. Benoit was said to be very pissed, and I can imagine malinko was too since he had gone into training to get ready for it and all. He has been wanting another match for the longest time too.

Tonight was one of the greatest nights in professional wrestling. Well, except that last match...man, I can't wait to see Cena get his ass smoked by RVD...

Cuz RVD 4:20 sez: " I just smoked your ass!" Man, that was cool..moving on...

Cuz, if Cena wins, I will stop watching WWE programming until he loses that title. ECW is the exception.

Now, Cena vs. Sabu was a "ECW Rules" match. So, why in the hell did the ref call for the bell when Big Show came in?...I'll tell ya, cuz the ref's biast! He's a WWE whore, kissing Vince' s old ass! That match had no rules, meaning weaps and interference was allowed. That ref should get his ass kicked!

Ok, calming down...so, does anyone know what the fate of SD is?

Oh, just a little something from this past RAW.

Did anyone see the video promo for The Highlanders? I found it pretty hilarious. They've already got an entertaining gimmick, so I hope they've got wrestling talent to go with it.

yeah it was a bit funny, but they had better be able to back it up with good ring work.

know what I would like? A Hardy Boyz reunion in ECW. That would be so cool!

I hope show to but they will be poorly book or face jobbers every week. They look more like a comedy bit than wrestling or idk.

Gentlemen...tonight was an incredible damn night. It made up for every missed oppurtunity, every botched promo...it was fucking cathartic, it was orgasmic. It was everything this ECW fan could ask for, and not for the last time this weekend, I will say this: Thank you. Thank you to all of you who bought the Rise and Fall DVD, thank you to everyone who bought ONS live last year, thank you to those who then bought the DVD of that event. Thank you for reading my ramblings, and my hype, thank you thank you, from the bottom of my heart. You gave me my form of wrestling back, you gave me back the company that took my passion for the wrestling business down with it when it went bankrupt 5 years ago. Thank you, to the soldiers in the revolution, new and old, who have kept the faith, and made this happen.

Tonight was awesome, we showed the cesspool that is WWE exactly how it is done. We took, they're biggest athlete, and we made him ours! You see, ECW proved not only that we can take WWE in the ring, but we can take them in terms of talent acquisition, and out think them as well. Brother Show pulled a swerve that nobody saw coming, and he showed ours, to be the dominate brand in wrestling today.

By my count, ECW only truly lost one match clean, and we took...let's see...we took down the World Heavyweight Champ, we took down ten of thier "best and brightest" (don't make me laugh), and we took the WWE champion, John "rapcrap" Cena to the limits, and if we hadn't had stupid biased WWE officials involved, Sabu would have whipped his ass!

Now, if I could be a bit more shoot, less work, less mark out for a moment, for those who think Big Show is not ECW material, two names for you...Sid...and 911. Both those guys couldn't wrestle a lick, but worked for ECW, and had some good times there, Show is easily a better worker then those two, and should have a bright future in his new home.

Now then, I know there's nothing we can do about those three offensive letters in the title of this topic, but I propose that if you'd like to make a more official pledge to ECW, and renounce any stain of mainstream WWE taint, you recite the "Extreme Pledge of Allegiance" with me (this is real kids, it was even made into a t-shirt), please excuse some of the dated language here:

I pledge allegiance to the wrestlers of ECW, and to the violence for which we demand. One promotion, under Tod, politically incorrect, with broken tables and barbed wire for all.

This will be among my last posts before I depart for Philly till Sunday.

hell let me be the first then:

I pledge allegiance to the wrestlers of ECW, and to the violence for which we demand. One promotion, under Tod, politically incorrect, with broken tables and barbed wire for all.

my only problem is that I have no idea if I get the sci-fi channel... As I said I got a new cable hook up with a guide in it, so hopefully I can find it.

I also thought Hardy was going to jump to ECW, so it really did come as a shock when Big Show went. I remembed that dude 911, where is he anyway?

Course I can't watch just ECW. Sorry Avie but while I am thrilled to death about ECW coming back, I am going to continue to watch Raw, SD and TNA.

...An interesting show to say the least, I'll make a reveiw later, so,

DON'T NOBODY ELSE MAKE ONE!

Oh, corn...

I pledge allegiance to the wrestlers of ECW, and to the violence for which we demand. One promotion, under Tod, politically incorrect, with broken tables and barbed wire for all.

THen I'm the second to pledge allegiance to the new ECW as for me I've had Sci-FI channel for a while now and I must admit I've always been a fan even if only for the "classic" Twilight Zone episodes as for not watching the rest.. I don't really watch Smackdown that often so for me it'll be ECW,TNA and Raw occasionally because well it is Raw.

I'll still watch TNA, but I dunno about RAW, I know it's going to more then likely continue to not be destination television for me. I'm so past bored with basically anything on Vince's main shows these days.

Speaking of which...I think SD! is dead. Orton is gone, and while yeah, Batista is coming back, I get the feeling that with WWE's seriousness about ECW, that they'll quickly begin moving the rest of the SD! roster between RAW and ECW, meaning that you're brand extension would consist of one unified WWE, and ECW. As for what would happen to SD!? Well, it would probably become another two hours for the unified WWE, or it could be divided between the two brands (an hour for WWE, an hour for ECW). I just can't see flipping Orton out, and possibly moving Mysterio on Sunday (I have a strong feeling he's going to jump with the World Title), and then trying to have what's left be considered as "headlining" the show for the next year or whatever is left on the deal with CW. I think it's best to just fold it back into WWE now, and if CW dosen't pick it up again, or WWE opts not to seek renewal, no real harm done.

Oh, balls. I forgot about Randy Orton's monologue. That was pretty funny, too.

Orton's got the kind of mic skills a heel needs. He did pretty well that night.

He got fired for no-selling the Tazmission. Was brought back for one show, then faded out. I think he's pretty much left the business at present, he may still be doing occassional indy shots, but all he's really good for is a quick chokeslam and leave type deal.

Thank you Avie for showing me the light. So, I thank you in return for showing me the way wrestling is supposed to be. And you also thought that ref was biased. Yeah, that would've happened as well.

So, I take it you're going to see ONS live?

BTW, who is going to see ONS live on PPV?

First, thank you all for being so paitent! here it is!

Redface Says: "WWE vs. ECW reveiw!

Match #1- Rob van Dam vs. Rey Mysterio

Two Former tag partners going against each other always makes for a promising match. Good spots here, like when RVD drop-kicked Rey while he was sturng up on the ropes, and when Rey Countered the rolling thunder and slammed RVD's head onto a chair. RVD wins in a short-but-sweet match after sinching the Five-star frog splash.

The Victor: ROB! VAN! DAM!

-Kurt Angle Segment-

Angle talks about Randy Orton's ankle, and breaking it. Orton comes out, talks shit and mentions how Angle going to ECW is like "Starring in a Summer block-buster, then doing hardcore porn." He also talks about how he, The "Legend Killer" is going to kill the legend of ECW. Hoo-hum, I hate talking, Isn't this supposed to be "Extreme"?

Match #2- Mickie James vs. Jazz

What's better than a diva's match? An "extreme" diva's match? not really.

The Victor: Mickie James

-Cena Segment-

Cena is a total bad-ass, I don't care what you all think. he tells the "Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal, Dance Recital Sheik-of-the-week" to bring it.

Match #3- WWE vs. ECW Battle Royale
REDFACE BEST MATCH OF THE NIGHT AWARD

Okay, why is Mark Henry always soaking wet when he makes an Enterance? ugh.., Anyway, Being a recent wrestle fan, I did not wreckognise most of the guys on the ECW Team, Besides Nunzio (Little Guido), Angle, and Funk. A very good match, but team WWE cleaned house.

The Victor: Team WW... WAIT!

Big Show Takes off his RAW shirt, revealing a an ECW shirt underneath it! Okay, that was a good one. Show wins it for ECW.

The (real) Victor: Team ECW (in more ways than one)

Match #4- Tommy Dreamer vs. Edge

A decent match. Lita interfered and helped Edge win by sitting on Dreamer's Face. I sorta think Dreamer truely won this.

The Victor: Edge

-Mick Foley Segment-

Foley's unstable brain finally snapped, I think.

Brightest Star(s) Award:Tazz and Jerry "The King" Lawler

That fight was bad-ass.

Match #5- John Cena vs. Sabu

TNA Lockdown '06 made me a Sabu fan, and I've Been a Chain Gang Solider for a while;
I could tell it would be a good match. It was pretty back-and-forth. Cena kicked Sabu's ass for a while, then Sabu busted out the Jumpy Flippy Attacks. Just when it seemed Cena would win, Big Show interfered, and then everybody came out and got into a big fight. It was A great Conculsion to a Great Night.

The Victor: The Fans

okay, hold on.

Sabu was about to tap, fair and square. If it wasn't for the interference, he
would have tapped!

Hey, everyone!

I haven't been around in forever...so I'd be very surpised if anyone remembers me. I did used to make reviews and stuff, but really stopped after around WM. I was really getting tired of the old, bland WWE style shit and really stopped watching wrestling for a while. I was on and off...until...

ECW! WOW. I only started watching wrestling a bit after WM19, so I never really saw ECW, WCW, or the Monday Night War. However, I can tell the difference between the way Paul Heyman does things and the way Vince McMahon does things, and I can just say...thank GOD that Paul Heyman has creative control of ECW...

After watching the Wednesday Night WWE vs. ECW, I am soooo stoked for One Night Stand...and can only hope that this revives the WWE a bit. We can only fucking hope Cena loses the god damn WWE title on Sunday...

Whats Earl Hebner doing at TNA, its the first time I saw him refereeing at Impact.

He's been in TNA for a while now he's also refeered some of the main events in recent pay-per-views so he's become the big match refeere.

hey eagle! Where you been man?!

You know having ECW back is not only a good idea content wise, and just overall product quality for wwe, but a marketing goldmine all it's own. Now I have no idea how true hardcore fans of ECW would feel about all that, but to be able to re-launcg ECW stuff like shirts, hats and so on is going to make Vince a lot of money in the long run.

But know what I really really hope for? A brand new ECW video game. Now before you point out that there is indeed an ecw game (So bad that it was inducted to wrestlecrap.com) just think about the current games being put out for wwe. If they made a game of that quality for ECW that would be freakin sweet.

Yeah, that ECW game for the N64 wasn't all that great in my opinion. If they DID decide to create and put it out (and they should) for the new generation of consoles, I'd play it. It would have to be done by THQ and Yukes of course to be good (using the SvR engine, or create one all it's own). Midway Games is suppose to be coming out with a TNA game sometime next year. I wouldn't mind playing that either, depending on how good it turn out.

count me in!

Ehh...I've been busy...the end of my last grad school semester was rough, so I stopped posting in most places, even the Elite Guard Barracks. Also, I was disenchanted with wrestling for a while, barely catching the latest episodes, never mind being able to do recaps. However, ECW might just change all of that.

Very true. Let's just hope that this is the turnaround that the WWE really needs. If TNA can't delier the competition WWE needs to keep good, in-company competition is a good place to start.

LordKooler's TNA iMPACT review
1.Sting vs Scott Steiner
With the Third King of the Mountain match on the way, I'd like to post the first two KOTM matches here. Here is the first KOTM match and here is the second KOTM match. Will the Third KOTM match be better than the first two? We'll have to wait and see at Slammiversary 2006. Sting won the match by DQ when Jeff Jarrett & Scott Steiner attacked Sting. Then Ron Killings, Abyss, and Christian Cage come out and all of the participants for KOTM 3 get into a big brawl! After the match Samoa Joe came to the ring and made contact with Scott Steiner. Then the two start fighting each other in the ring! The Sting vs Scott Steiner match was a good match to start off iMPACT.
2.Sonjay Dutt vs Jerrelle Clark
Jerrelle Clark hasn't appeared on iMPACT in a long time. But he returned facing Sonjay Dutt. Konnan did commentary and Konnan said that the X Division is a ripoff of Lucha Libre. Sonjay Dutt won at the end. I thought that Kevin Nash was gonna attack Jerrelle Clark after the match.
3.Team Canada vs Chris Sabin & The James Gang
After Chris Sabin & The James Gang won, Rhino came out and attacked Team Canada. There are rumors that Rhino might join the new ECW when his TNA contract expires. Then after the match, Christy Hemme comes out and gives Don West a letter about the Joe vs Steiner match at Slammiversary.

Meh, the hardcore engine on the recent wrestling games have been pretty crap, with few weapons, and most weapons just doing the exact same thing. I know ECW isn't just about Hardcore, but its definately more a part of ECW tha it is WWE. They'd have to accomadate for more weapon moves, like the arabian facebuster, etc.
So I hope they at least make a few good adjustments in that area. Apart from that though, WWE's games are pretty solid.

True, but like I hinted at, the games being put out for wwe have been really good, so an ECW game from them now could have the same potential.

to answer an early question, yes I too am ordering ONS.

I totally forgot about TNA, so guess I'll have to catch the replay on saturday. Thanks for posting those KOTM links LK, those should be fun to watch.

DAMNIT!!!!!! I went to order ONS today and while they were getting the order down I asked where the sci-fi channel was, since I had been unable to find it, and they told me that they currently did not carry that channel in their service..... I can't watch ECW at all, with the exception of the PPV this sunday.. This sucks! I'm pissed and disapointed at the same time. The only glimmer of hope was the person told me they are thinking of adding channels soon. I hope there will be a way for me to watch ECW, or at least get clips from the show.
