Official ECW Thread 4/22/08: The Adamle & The Strutting Ledge

[Innovator]

Just 24 hours after ECW Champion Kane found himself in opposition to Edge in a massive Eight-Man Tag Match on Raw, the Big Red Monster will appear as a guest on the Rated-R Superstar's talk segment, The Cutting Edge. Last night, the champion traded blows and was even pinned by the Ultimate Opportunist in one of Edge's signature opportunistic moments. Will Kane bring a fiery wrath to ECW on Sci Fi tonight? More importantly, will the Rated-R Superstar's "familia" - Kane's Backlash challenger, Chavo Guerrero - be watching?

With Backlash less than two weeks away, Kane has begun building momentum, thanks in part to some help from a fellow champion – and family member. The Brothers of Destruction, Kane & World Heavyweight Champion Undertaker, were victorious over The Miz & John Morrison on the last ECW on Sci Fi, demolishing the WWE (http://www.wwe.com/shows/ecw/preview/6101738/#) Tag Team Champions.

But when Kane defends the ECW title against Chavo Guerrero at Backlash, the Big Red Machine won’t have his brother with him in the ring. How will Kane fare in the days leading to Backlash? How will Guerrero enlist the help of his new bodyguard, Bam Neely, as he tries to win back ECW gold?
Kofi Kingston’s winning streak also continued last Tuesday night, as he led his team of CM Punk, Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore to victory in an Eight-Man Tag Team Match against Deuce, Domino, Shelton Benjamin & Elijah Burke. The Jamaican Superstar has been blazing a path through every challenger he meets; who will step up to challenge Kingston next? Will anyone be able to stop the Jamaican sensation?

In other ECW action, Mike Knox continued his winning ways in London. Under ECW General Manager Armando Estrada’s watchful eye, Knox was victorious over Colin Delaney, who was once again fighting for a WWE contract. The youngster wasn’t able to enlist the aid of ECW Original Tommy Dreamer this week, as his bad luck continues. Will Delaney’s fortune eventually turn around? Will he ever earn a WWE contract?

Find out the answers to these questions and more on this week's ECW on Sci Fi, tonight at 10/9 CT.

------------------------------

The question is not will he, but how much will he fuck up the speaking tonight?

[Innovator]

Until the Mike, I'm watching the Passion episode of South Park, forgot how great it was

[KingofOldSchool]

I think Nunzio will main event tonight.

[KingofOldSchool]

How many times will Adamle botch tonight?

[Innovator]

R Rated Superstar

[KingofOldSchool]

R Rated Superstar LOL

[Innovator]

Mr. Dancemaster? The tazz

[KingofOldSchool]

Adamle should have called Dreamer, Tommy Sleepyhead

[DarKCentaur]

That damn calculating Cuban Mike Knox.

[Innovator]

God why is Knox still employed

[DarKCentaur]

Oh, he's learning not to interrupt Tony Chimel

[Xerzes]

Poor, poor Tommy Dreamer. Expected to carry three lumps of crap in one match.

[KingofOldSchool]

Maria pawned off her dumbness on Adamle.

[RGWhat316]

"Correct me if I'm wrong". LOL, he's practically saying he is gonna mess up.

[Innovator]

He taps off to Kelly Kelly

[KingofOldSchool]

Tazz is talking a lot more.

[Innovator]

Fameasser?

[DarKCentaur]

Since when does Kelly Kelly use the Fame-Asser

[KingofOldSchool]

FAMEASSER!

[Innovator]

Rocker Dropper style

[DarKCentaur]

His what?

[KingofOldSchool]

LOL WHAT

[Innovator]

Did they even mention Kelly is Knox's ex girlfriend?

[Innovator]

Tazz is putting this show on his shoulders

[KingofOldSchool]

Knox: I still remember Kelly.

Kelly: Huh?

[Innovator]

WOOOO STACKER 2!

[Innovator]

Wow he made a sentence without fucking up? thats 1

[Xerzes]

Oh good. We can watch Hillary read from a prompter poorly again, and Obama and McCain make really awkward pro wrestling references.

[KingofOldSchool]

Fuck you HIlrod

[Innovator]

HOLY SHIT! MIZ WAS IN SLO MO TOO!

[KingofOldSchool]

Tazz had abs?

[Innovator]

"It's an honor to be here with your legendary status" :lol: Miz

[KingofOldSchool]

Miz has legendary status?

[DarKCentaur]

HAHAHA The Miz is awesome already

[Xerzes]

Hooray for Tazz mocking Adamle.

[KingofOldSchool]

Jimmy Ang Lee

[DarKCentaur]

Mike and Mike for commentary

[Innovator]

Jamaican me crazy, thanks Miz

[Xerzes]

But boo for Mike Mizanin continuing to exist.

[Innovator]

Tazz is doing commentary with the Miz right now :lol:

[Innovator]

AHAHAHA, this is great

[Innovator]

How about it THE Tazz :lol:

[KingofOldSchool]

BIG JOHN FTW

[Innovator]

Jimmy Yang Wang, if Adamle can mess up

[KingofOldSchool]

Jimmy Wang Chung's tonight

[Innovator]

Everybody Jimmy Wang Chung tonight

[Innovator]

So much dead air it's great

[McLegend]

Man this broadcast is so awarkard. No one is saying anything cause Adamle refuses to take the lead, so it's just dead silence for like 3-4 seconds.

Hilarious.

[Indifferent Clox]

LOL Layla couldn't wait to tap Knox. and i can't wait to scrapbook with adamle.

[KingofOldSchool]

I'm waiting for Adamle to botch his own name.

Adamle: Welcome to ECW! I'm The Tazz alongside Mike Addameal...

[Innovator]

Sorry Legend

[McLegend]

So much dead air it's great

It's great.

[Innovator]

Iron Man better rock out with its cockle out

[Innovator]

Toast of the Town? What is this the 30s?

[McLegend]

I wish I can look like Adamle when I am 57.

[Innovator]

Fatal Four.......way

[KingofOldSchool]

I read how Punk lost the MITB briefcase to Edge on Smackdown.

[Innovator]

JAMIACAN ME CRAZY KOFI

[Innovator]

I read how Punk lost the MITB briefcase to Edge on Smackdown.
Funny

[KingofOldSchool]

Funny

I'm serious.

[HTrain90]

Shelton v. Kofi could actually be a very good match. I'm kind of excited for this one.

[Innovator]

I'm serious.
I just saw they had a match, nothing about the briefcase

[KingofOldSchool]

I just saw they had a match, nothing about the briefcase

The set I'm reading mentioned that Edge wanted the briefcase on the line.

[Innovator]

SPOILER ALERT FOR SMACKDOWN




Smackdown begins with the Familia cutting a promo. CM Punk interrupts. It will be Punk vs. Edge later on tonight.

The Miz took on Shannon Moore with John Morrison on commentary. Moore won with a rollup after a missed kick by Miz.

Nattie Neidhart beat Cherry with a Sharpshooter
Matt Hardy did an interview with Michael Cole in the ring. I don't know if it will air or not. MVP interrupts and they go back and forth about the match at Backlash. MVP tries to talk Matt out of the match and then lays hardy out with the belt.

Edge vs. CM Punk is up next. The crowd was crazy for this match, which Punk lost via The Spear after being distracted.

Vladimir Kozlov squashed a local jobber.

This is all I got so far

[DarKCentaur]

Hahaha, it's safe to say that they're arguably the best WHAT THE FUCK IS HE SAYING

[KingofOldSchool]

These two....are....argubaly...the best two....wrestlers....in on any....ECW roster.

[KingofOldSchool]

SPOILER ALERT FOR SMACKDOWN





This is all I got so far

Mine has Miz and Morrison arguing again and the MITB stip.

[Innovator]

Cmon Mike

[KingofOldSchool]

UNO! DOS! ADIOS!

[Innovator]

BOOP BOOP BOOP

[Innovator]

JAMAICAN ME CRAZY!!!!!

[DarKCentaur]

He actually said it again.

[KingofOldSchool]

High elevation on that dick!

[HTrain90]

Shelton looks like he's getting better. His style is a lot more aggressive, and he looks like he's growing into a cocky heel character well.

Kofi is a terrible white-meat babyface. I hate that crap.

And Mike Adamle is just plain awful.

[Innovator]

Adamle isn't terrible

Correct me if I'm wrong but.........Adamle is an.........abortion

[KingofOldSchool]

They should release a Best of Mike Adamle DVD called "JAMACIAN ME CRAZY!: The Mike Adamle Story"

[DarKCentaur]

... so you're saying Kofi doesn't Jamaic you crazy?

[McLegend]

Nice way to not call that finisher or that pin, Adamle.

[HTrain90]

... so you're saying Kofi doesn't Jamaic you crazy?

No. Not at all. He has no future with that crappy gimmick.

As Negrodamus would say: "Kofi Kingston makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcom X."

[KingofOldSchool]

lol they need to recap THIS?

[KingofOldSchool]

IFFFF YAAAA HEEEEAAARRR WHAT THE ADAMLE IS BOTCHIN'!

[RGWhat316]

The set I'm reading mentioned that Edge wanted the briefcase on the line.

I'm confused now. I saw the same thing on another site saying the contract was on the line.

[DarKCentaur]

No. Not at all. He has no future with that crappy gimmick.

As Negrodamus would say: "Kofi Kingston makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcom X."

We haven't really been able to see what kinda personality he has though. They should try and go the Santino route with him, and make him a "goody-two-shoes type heel", and see if he can pull it off.

[HTrain90]

lol they need to recap THIS?

The WWE thinks since the Presidential candidates did 30 second clips for them that suddenly they're important.

News flash: these media whores have looked anywhere and everywhere possible for votes - it's not b/c they were DYING to get to the WWE audience.

[KingofOldSchool]

FUCK YOU HIL-ROD

[RGWhat316]

Good news Nunzio, you're on tv.
Bad news, vs Mark Henry

[Innovator]

He is going to extract..........punishment

[DarKCentaur]

Any publicity is good publicity.

[HTrain90]

Mark Henry v. Um... who is that?

As an aside, for anyone that plays SmackDown! v. RAW 2008, use Mark Henry. He's freaking amazing. Some of my buddies always play SmackDown!, but they have refused to play whenever I use Mizzark. He is dominant.

[Innovator]

Nunzio is about to get injured

[DarKCentaur]

FUCK YOU HIL-ROD

Heheh, you said rod.

[KingofOldSchool]

I'm going to WW.com right NOW!

[Indifferent Clox]

Kofi is amazing. So is Adamle. So is shelton. lol at tazz telling Adamle to hush, and Adamle not talking most of the rest of the match. Haha

[Innovator]

I get the feeling HHH is winning this

[HTrain90]

I get the feeling HHH is winning this

I really hope not. The Orton win at WM was so unexpected, so shocking, that to have him lose at Backlash would really take some luster off of the win.

Unfortunately, I've got that same feeling.

[DarKCentaur]

I get the feeling HHH is winning this

Probably not. HHH won't win the title until one of the big shows, that way it comes off as more memorable.

[HTrain90]

Probably not. HHH won't win the title until one of the big shows, that way it comes off as more memorable.

Then who do you think wins at Backlash?

[Innovator]

This is the first time I've really been paying attention to the commentary in a long time

[Innovator]

Happiest day of your kid's life?! What kind of dad are you?!

[RGWhat316]

Kind of like his new shirt.

[KingofOldSchool]

When did the Douche Brothers stop wearing Edge's tights?

[HTrain90]

Edge freaking rules.

[DarKCentaur]

Then who do you think wins at Backlash?

Orton will most likely retain. Although I wouldn't really be shocked if Cena wins. I just don't think Cena will hold the title too long this time, with HHH waiting in the wings. HHH will challenge and win the title at Summerslam: if Cena is champ, HHH is heel. If Orton is, HHH is still face.

[Xerzes]

I like how he rhymed "edge" with "edge."

[KingofOldSchool]

Adamle calls it "The Sharp Corner"

[HTrain90]

Remember when Kane walked to the ring in shackles? That was pretty badass.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Now that blubber bag is on ECW feuding with Chavo...

[RGWhat316]

Oh my firehell and stonebrim!

[KingofOldSchool]

Paul Bearer is proud of his son Kane.

[RGWhat316]

LOL, parents must be so proud.

[DarKCentaur]

At least they acknowledge that Paul Bearer is dead.

[KingofOldSchool]

Paul Bearer isn't de....*remembers that cement tomb thingy*...he's right they are dead.

[Xerzes]

Is that the story now?

[DarKCentaur]

Hahaha Edge is attempting to piece together the train wreck that is Kane's gimmick.

[RGWhat316]

Wow, so many past storylines in one segment.

[Volchok]

So that's Kane's backstory?

[KingofOldSchool]

STORYLINE CONTINUITY!

[Volchok]

Edge still remembers.

[DarKCentaur]

Edge must have had to rehearse that for days.

[KingofOldSchool]

Vickie Guerrero who is the widow of Eddie Guerrero who probably had a Paul Bearer at his funeral who is Kane's dad who is supposedly dead!

CRAZY!

[RGWhat316]

Is he turning into Edgie Guerrero?

[KingofOldSchool]

Is Kane trying to take sound bytes for next year's Backlash promo?

[DarKCentaur]

OH NO KANE IS GONNA KATIE VICK HER

[KingofOldSchool]

Kane and Taker are going to double team Vickie.

[Xerzes]

This is padding.

[KingofOldSchool]

Stalling FTW

[DarKCentaur]

Undertaker is a pretty shitty brother

[KingofOldSchool]

BAM! Neely.

[KingofOldSchool]

Undertaker is a pretty shitty brother

Well he is just a half-brother.

[KingofOldSchool]

Ok, here's a question... if Kane "takes care" of Vickie... will he have to return to wearing his face mask after suffering from hideous carpet burns?

[DarKCentaur]

I love how detached Adamle is from the moment:

Tazz: "Oh my god, Kane's leg is destroyed!"
Adamle: "Will Kane's leg recover? We'll find out Sunday!"

[DaVe]

Yeah, and a little earlier when Kane first gets beaten down on by 5 or 6 or whatever it was.

Tazz: "Kane now... Kane now getting teamed up now, Mike!" (or something like that, was hard to understand because he was talking in a panicky way as if he cared about it)
Mike, using the Adamle tone: "I didn't expect this to happen at all."
