[Innovator]

Again...don't have Sci Fi HD

[Heros Welcome]

It's going to look a little strange seeing a show called ECW with an entrance way like this one.

[Innovator]

yeah, BIG BUDGET ECW BABY

[DarKCentaur]

Yeah, stupid iO doesn't offer USA or Sci-Fi HD. Oh well, I can still watch Shitdown in HD on the C-Dub

[KingofOldSchool]

Time for Punk to drop the title!

[KingofOldSchool]

Lena Yada will get no reaction....IN HD!

[DarKCentaur]

Paul Heyman will shed a tear for ECW...... well, not in HD, but he will

I came up with a scenario where Punk faced Edge at NWO for the World Title in 2 out of 3 falls. Edge would retain 2 falls to 1.

[Innovator]

There goes Dreamer in HD

[Innovator]

Why isn't Big Daddy V down here in HD?

[KingofOldSchool]

I like that idea

My theory is that Edge would take the first fall after a belt shot. Punk would come back and take the second fall with the GTS. Edge would take the decisive fall after a Spear not after Punk kicking out of one Spear and another belt shot before giving way to a second spear.

I'm all for this in HD

WWE would never go for it, Punk would look too good

[Innovator]

Sick move by Shelton in HD!

[KingofOldSchool]

WWE would never go for it, Punk would look too good

But I love it

I would have also booked a backstage interaction between Punk and Flair where Flair puts over Punk by saying "When I do retire, I can sleep good at night knowing that the future of the business is in good hands."

[KingofOldSchool]

[DarKCentaur]

Leyla Milani doesn't really believe that the women wrestle better than the men, does she

[Heros Welcome]

Well she is no longer employed by them, so my guess is she believed it, stated it, and then got canned.

[Innovator]

[Xerzes]

Congratulations, Kofi Kingston. That was the worst debut I've seen since The Yeti. Better luck next time.

[KingofOldSchool]

The Rumble match itself has been poorly hyped.

[KingofOldSchool]

That Rumble promo was actually really cool, I thought

[Innovator]

Congratulations, Kofi Kingston. That was the worst debut I've seen since The Yeti. Better luck next time.
Lets not jump the gun here, the YETAY and the Shockmaster were far worse

[Innovator]

The Rumble match itself has been poorly hyped.
They can only hype one match at a time

[Xerzes]

Lets not jump the gun here, the YETAY and the Shockmaster were far worse

Yeti was several years after Shockmaster. I said it was the worst I've seen since then.

[KingofOldSchool]

They can only hype one match a PPV

[McLegend]

Estrada is still GM?

Amazing

[Innovator]

Yeti was several years after Shockmaster. I said it was the worst I've seen since then.
Mantaur?

Harry Beaver Cleavage?

Se7en?

[KingofOldSchool]

Yeti was several years after Shockmaster. I said it was the worst I've seen since then.

Brakkus and Glacier

[Innovator]

Estrada is still GM?

Amazing

[Xerzes]

Fair enough. Pretty sure Mantaur was before Yeti, though. Was Brakkus ever actually on television? I must have blinked. Glacier made me sad. Beaver Cleavage and Se7en...ugh. Fuck Russo in the fucking brain.

[KingofOldSchool]

Edge should've came out wheeling out Vickie.

[Innovator]

Punk jobbing out...IN HD!
Dunno, the announcers hyping how the odds are against Punk in HD! are leaving me feeling like Rey will show up and help out Punker...

Oh yeah only Cena overcomes odds in HD!

[KingofOldSchool]

But then they can always hype that Punk had all over this obstacles that was too much for him.

I would say a Steel Cage match at the Rumble, but that would never happen.

[Innovator]

[KingofOldSchool]

Hey, Heat is better than ECW

But Heat doesn't have a title. :'(

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Wait, so Smackdown is taped before ECW, right?

Then wouldn't everyone in the arena already know Chavo was gonna win?</font>

[KingofOldSchool]

Actually I think ECW was taped first.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Saying IN HD after everything is pretty funny

[Mr. Nerfect]

OOOOH CHAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:love: :love: :love:

So, maybe it isn't widely considered a World Title, perhaps not even by the WWE, but Chavo became a World Champion tonight, in my mind.

Just saw the post that talked about the enemies Edge and his group are making, and I had an idea: War Games. Don't ask my why it came to me, but can you imagine Edge, Chavo Guerrero, Zack Ryder & Curt Hawkins vs. The Undertaker, Batista, Rey Mysterio & CM Punk in a War Games Match somewhere?

[Blitz]

Did someone tell that jobber to deliberately make Kofi look bad? Haven't seen work that sloppy in a while.

[KYR]

Saying IN HD after everything is pretty funny in HD
