Known matches for tonight:

ShowMiz vs. Goldust and Yoshi Tatsu for the Unified Tag Team Titles


Christian vs. Ezekiel Jackson for the ECW Championship in an Extreme Rules match

[Anybody Thrilla]

Zack Ryder's gotta be doing something.

[Cool King]

I wonder if we'll find out tonight what brand some of the ECW Superstars will be going to.

Though I have a strong suspicion that all that will be kept quiet and some will make surprise debuts on their chosen brand and others will be announced on WWE.COM.

[DarKCentaur]

I'm thinking it won't be till the draft: like, RAW and Smackdown get to draft like 5 guys each or something

[Anybody Thrilla]

So what are the ECW guys supposed to do until May or whenever the draft takes effect?

[Fignuts]

I'd rather they go the surprise appearance route, tbh.

Although it would be cool to make a longer, drawn out affair on who gets the ecw champion, be it Zeke or Christian.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Here's to hoping that Christian goes to SmackDown and has a title unification match with Jericho or whoever wins at Elimination Chamber. He'd have no chance of winning, but a Christian/Jericho match would be a great TV main event.

[Anybody Thrilla]

You'd do a title unification match on TV? Why not a PPV?

[DaVe]

it starts in 20 mins? I might actually watch ECW for the first time since Punk/Morrison were feuding since it's the final one.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Just because I don't see WWE giving the ECW title that much respect. I'd prefer to have that hypothetical Jericho/Christian match on PPV, too, but I wouldn't be surprised if they try to merge the thing as soon as possible just to get it out of the way.

[parkmania]

Do we get a "last one out turn off the lights" moment tonight?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>I read on the main page that some rumored destinations thus far are Christian, Trent Barreta, and Caylen Croft signing with SmackDown...Ezekiel Jackson, William Regal, Zack Ryder, and Rosa Mendes signing with Raw

I will be so fucking pissed if Ryder goes to Raw. He won't do shit there.</font>

[Emperor Smeat]

Would be nice if they got Joey Styles to be a guest announcer in a match just to say "Oh My God" one last time for ECW/WWECW. He started the current brand as their announcer and would be nice to end it even if it was just for 1 spot or match.

[Droford]

Im pissed that the ECW song wont have a home anymore. Its the awesome tv show theme right now.

[Xero]

ECW! ECW! ECW!

:shifty:

[Droford]

I don't like the term "cast" for a wrestling show.

[Xero]

WEEEELLLL... It's AWESOME

[parkmania]

Now that you mention it, I might could see a classy act by Josh Matthews and Byron Saxton introducing Joey Styles as they come back from break for the start of the Christian/Jackson match, setting down their headsets and walking off so Styles can call it by himself.


But then again, it IS such a classy move that there's now way it'll happen.

[Xero]

I don't like the term "cast" for a wrestling show.

Wonder if NXT will have credits.

[Droford]

Its kinda dumb that this is the first time the tag belts have been defended on ECW.

[ImpactPlayer365]

Lame Mash Up

[Innovator]

Yoshdust

[Xero]

So their gimmick is that they're friends.

And that's the extent of it.

Really, WWE?

[Droford]

Rip ECW 1994 - 2010 ?

what happened to where it was dead the first time?

[legendkillerRKO]

i cant stand tatsu!

[Xero]

Rip ECW 1994 - 2010 ?

what happened to where it was dead the first time?

2001-2005 was a coma.

[ImpactPlayer365]

Goldshi

[parkmania]

That double team move by Yoshi & Goldy takes too long to pull off.

[Juan]

vintage butt bump by Goldust

[legendkillerRKO]

tatdust

[Xero]

Goldshi Tatsust

[ImpactPlayer365]

They should show like little moments of past ECW shows.

[legendkillerRKO]

Yodust

[ImpactPlayer365]

ahhh they dont care

[legendkillerRKO]

btw...just downloaded the batista and rvd movie thats comin out...that should be amazing *sarcasm*

[ImpactPlayer365]

Bullrun sucks!

[VSG]

I am just about sick of this KFC Wings ad!

[Droford]

GOLDBERG!

[Cool King]

Why is Goldberg on my stream? :wtf:

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Meh, tonight they bury something that was dead a long time ago :( RIP ECW... and I guess WWECW too :meh:

[VSG]

Eh? Anyway I wonder if they will show the "mentors" of NXT as well tonight. They might as well, they are pimping it so much!

[AngryMidjit]

the butt-butt = "unique?"

[parkmania]

Sting like a bee, get swatted like a gnat.

[parkmania]

Well, Josh just told us we'll find out the mentors tonight.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Nice bunch of teamwork moves Show and Miz have already...not a bad team at all.

[legendkillerRKO]

yoshi is an eternal flame

[VSG]

So whoever is a mentor, does not get a push himself.

Please no Kofi!

[RatedGSuperstar]

Waiting for Punk to get named as a mentor, so he can personally groom the next member of SES. It'd be nice exposure for the group, at least.

[thecc]

lol, the maverick goldust

[parkmania]

Anyone notice that the referees have pretty much stopped bothering to warn the wrestlers about using closed fists?

[VSG]

Decent match actually, the start was especially good!

[Cool King]

WEEEELLLLL AWESOME BIG SHOOOOW I CAME TO PLAY!

:wtf:

[RatedGSuperstar]

They really need to make a Unified Belt before Miz leaves one of the belts in a hotel room somewhere. Too many belts to carry at once.

[legendkillerRKO]

i have come to play!

[Xero]

lol the random "BIG SHOOOOW"s.

[Xero]

They really need to make a Unified Belt before Miz leaves one of the belts in a hotel room somewhere. Too many belts to carry at once.
I wonder how Ultimo Dragon managed.

[Anybody Thrilla]

What the fuck is happening on NXT?

[parkmania]

Jericho/Wade Barrett

Hardy/Justin Gabriel

[Xero]

Holy shit it's Ambrose Monk.

[VSG]

So much for my belief! Go Jericho..

[RatedGSuperstar]

A cross between Johnny Damon and Adam Lambert? So he's uber gay?

...not that there's anything wrong with that.

[AngryMidjit]

10 bucks says daniels is one of the rookies

[Droford]

I wonder what Tiffany will be doing post ECW?

[legendkillerRKO]

WOO WOO WOO!!

[Xero]

You know it!

[el bobbo]

She should be more pissed off, she's losing her job.

[parkmania]

How long until Tiffany is in the ring competing, and noone mentions that she was ever ECW GM?

[VSG]

Wow Tiffany has a bigger rack than Rosa! Who saw that coming??

[Xero]

How long until Tiffany is in the ring competing, and noone mentions that she was ever ECW GM?

Two months.

[Poit]

Awesome, the main event is going to be a massive clusterfuck of the whole roster.

[Juan]

Justin Angel!

[legendkillerRKO]

tiffany...in the words of john cena..."vegetarian chicks go on give my meat a taste"

[VSG]

I just hope Rey doesnt "mentor" Kaval! Its too predictable.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Sounds like the main event might be mass chaos if enough people play the "What are you gonna do, fire me?" card like Ryder did.

[Droford]

She should be more pissed off, she's losing her job.

shes going to interfere and win the ECW title.

[Juan]

10 bucks says daniels is one of the rookies

The roster for NXT has already been leaked.

[ImpactPlayer365]

i havent watched ECW in awhile...Tiffani is still bland

[AngryMidjit]

The roster for NXT has already been leaked.

shhh, i was hoping nobody saw that yet

[parkmania]

Sounds like the main event might be mass chaos if enough people play the "What are you gonna do, fire me?" card like Ryder did.

Didn't the original ECW TV shows end this way quite a bit?

[ImpactPlayer365]

so the NXT isnt going to be reality?

[Evil Vito]

The roster for NXT has already been leaked.

<font color=goldenrod>Wade Barrett wasn't on the leaked list I don't think...it might be different.</font>

[ImpactPlayer365]

all storyline

[VSG]

so the NXT isnt going to be reality?

Only if Reality shows were scripted!

[parkmania]

MVP/Skip Sheffield

[Xero]

A Hoss inside the ring?

Well, clearly he's JR's favorite.

[parkmania]

Aw man, was hoping for no Abe tonight.

[AngryMidjit]

ABAHAM WASHINTUN

[Poit]

Seriously? They're spending time on the last ECW for Abe?

[VSG]

Oh man I will miss Tony's lol'ing!

[RatedGSuperstar]

How many hours until Abe Washington is future endeavored?

[Xero]

AHAHAHAHA

[parkmania]

How many hours until Abe Washington is future endeavored?

Whatever the number is, it's too large.

[Cool King]

Washington's hair looks like it's been drawn on with a marker pen.

[VSG]

How many hours until Abe Washington is future endeavored?

He is going to Raw to chat with the guest hosts, and gets a stunner from Austin!

[RatedGSuperstar]

LOL..."Hey Abe Good Riddance" sign in the shot.

[legendkillerRKO]

1 man interview!!

[Triple Naitch]

I can't get over Matthews calling Wade Barrett a cross between Johnny Damon and Adam Lambert.

[Xero]

Tony should be laughing to the tune of Shelton's music.

[parkmania]

Washington's hair looks like it's been drawn on with a marker pen.

Nah, he won a lifetime supply of Soul Glow.

[The Gold Standard]

SHELTON!!

[ImpactPlayer365]

lol

[The Gold Standard]

HOW DARE HE INTERRUPT SHELTON!!

[Innovator]

Hey Trampy

[legendkillerRKO]

o no its pant starcher!

[legendkillerRKO]

cluster fuck!!!

[ImpactPlayer365]

Croft and Baretta....

[RatedGSuperstar]

How many people on screen right now will still be employed after WrestleMania?

[parkmania]

WE WANT WRESTLING!!!!

[Innovator]

Fuck I forgot about Koslov

[legendkillerRKO]

clusterfuck continues!

[ImpactPlayer365]

its going to end up like the Jerry Springer skit last night....

[Xero]

Didn't they do this angle last night?

Goldust is the father, right?

[VSG]

Did Archer just say "WTF" at Kozlov's russian?

[Cool King]

I'm slowly getting worried that this is going to turn into ECW's version of Jerry Springer. :(

[Xero]

lol three of us have the exact same thought.

[ImpactPlayer365]

How cute.

[legendkillerRKO]

the gold-russian team!

[parkmania]

Carlito/Michael Tarver

[Anybody Thrilla]

NXT is going to be amazing.

[The Gold Standard]

Is that a way to make Kozzy face?

[VSG]

Carlito is a pro?

[Xero]

Carlito is a pro?

Pro jobber.

[ImpactPlayer365]

Carlito haha. maybe Primo is "mentoring" also

[The Gold Standard]

NXT is going to be amazing.

:y:

[HeartBreakMan2k]

LOL @ Carlito mentoring anyone.

[The Gold Standard]

Pro jobber.

:y:

[VSG]

Hmmm that ad for Ghost Hunters sounds like what we were thinking when that skit ran last night:- Oh My God! No, that's not real! :naughty:

[screech]

NXT is going to be amazing.

:y:

:y:

[parkmania]

Well, Carlito is a good example of a bad example...

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Not going to lie, I'd actually probably be a Kozlov fan if they paired him with Shelton.

[VSG]

Pro jobber.

Ah a pro showing the jobbing skills to the future generation:- WWE thinks of everything!

[Emperor Smeat]

Apple spitting is a very important skill. Can't just choose any apple or any type of spit. It takes a pro like Carlito to do it correctly :shifty:

[screech]

Well, Carlito is a good example of a bad example...

He'll teach Tarver how to be a lazy fuck and still have a job.

[Xero]

Ah a pro showing the jobbing skills to the future generation:- WWE thinks of everything!

Hey, someone has to jerk the curtain.

Sheamus can only be an opener for so long.

[VSG]

Lol the stream I am watching is timing out atleast 2 guys a min for chanting ECW in Caps!

[parkmania]

Miz/Daniel Bryan WTF?!?!?!?

[Anybody Thrilla]

THE MIZ AND DANIEL BRYAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[legendkillerRKO]

Carlito: Now listen...to start your career off right...hire a big mexican named Jesus to stab John Cena

Tarver: Is that how you got where you are today!?

[ImpactPlayer365]

Daniel Bryan huh

[Xero]

Miz/Danielson. Not bad. Would have preferred Jericho, though.

[Innovator]

DRAGOOOOOOOOOOOOOON

[RatedGSuperstar]

The Miz and Danielson...that's going to be great.

[VSG]

Holy Fuck! Miz and Danielson?? Thats Awesome!

[Poit]

THE MIZ AND DANIEL BRYAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome.

[Cool King]

The Miz? :wtf:

[ImpactPlayer365]

Thats creatively different

[Innovator]

DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON

[parkmania]

Miz/Daniel Bryan WTF?!?!?!?

I think they got the "Pro/Rookie" thing backwards there.

[McLegend]

Man with Lance Hoyt on ECW I can't believe they are going to end it.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Nice, Miz/Bryan are going to be the pairing that hates each other...gives Bryan someone to feud with as soon as he reaches the main roster</font>

[VSG]

I think they got the "Pro/Rookie" thing backwards there.

Lol!

[legendkillerRKO]

miz=reality tv!

[Xero]

lol

JR: CHAMPIONSHIPS!

*Ref holds up title with WWE logo sideways*

God, that title ruins everything.

[The Gold Standard]

I think it is hilarious that The Miz is the mentor to Danielson

[ImpactPlayer365]

Wasnt Bischoff responsible for the Chamber?

[The Gold Standard]

<font color=goldenrod>Nice, Miz/Bryan are going to be the pairing that hates each other...gives Bryan someone to feud with as soon as he reaches the main roster</font>

This is true. I didn't think of it that way.

[VSG]

Notice the earlier promo's had a lot of JR in the background, but the one this week has more striker/cole!

[legendkillerRKO]

they show edge winning the chamber....but they dont show how he got in there :cough: kofi :cough:

[The Gold Standard]

Wasnt Bischoff responsible for the Chamber?

Yes

[parkmania]

Wasnt Bischoff responsible for the Chamber?

At least in kayfabe he was.

[VSG]

Wasnt Bischoff responsible for the Chamber?

I am sure a certain Vince Russo would disagree as usual

[ImpactPlayer365]

ahh thought so..

[legendkillerRKO]

is this considered kofi's second chamber match?

[parkmania]

Christian/Heath Slater

[Xero]

Am I the only one who hates the NXT theme?

[VSG]

Ah the Creepy Little Bastard mentors the Ugly Little Bastard!

[Anybody Thrilla]

Wasnt Bischoff responsible for the Chamber?

Yeah, when Vince was threatening Bischoff to make Raw better or something.

[legendkillerRKO]

when you close your eyes tonite!

[VSG]

Am I the only one who hates the NXT theme?

Rest in peace, there are others. It reminds me of a spoof of Indiana Jones!

[RatedGSuperstar]

is this considered kofi's second chamber match?

On Raw last night they mentioned that Kofi qualified last year but didn't participate, and hyped this as Kofi's first real entrance.

[legendkillerRKO]

OH RADIO! where is the best theme song in WWE!?

[Xero]

Benoit looked at it like that.

:shifty:

[Cool King]

Am I the only one who hates the NXT theme?

I hated it at first, but it's grown on me.

[Poit]

where is the best theme song in WWE!?

Miz already competed.

[legendkillerRKO]

Miz already competed.

miz's theme is awesome...not the mash up tho...thats terrible

[VSG]

E-C-Dubbb What?

Oh and Christian just mentioned he is the last ECW champ:- Grats for ruining the result of the match! I also presume the belt will be retired then.

[legendkillerRKO]

fuck! hogan and flair r gunna wrestle!? noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Cool King]

E-C-Dubbb What?

Oh and Christian just mentioned he is the last ECW champ:- Grats for ruining the result of the match! I also presume the belt will be retired then.

I'm sure what he meant by that was that he's planning on winning the match.

[legendkillerRKO]

oh tna...wtf r u doing!

[Poit]

Oh and Christian just mentioned he is the last ECW champ:- Grats for ruining the result of the match! I also presume the belt will be retired then.

I assumed that was just being confident, not spoiling.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Just looked it up because I was curious...Christian's been ECW champion for 248 of the last 297 days when you combine his two reigns. Can't say they haven't made him look good on ECW.

[The Gold Standard]

Who sings the NXT Theme?

It sounds like Kings of Leon.

[parkmania]

Punk/Darren Young

[legendkillerRKO]

punk is gunna shave that head!

[VSG]

I am pretty sure he said he was proud to be the last ECW champ! Ah the heck with it.. Punk is here! Damn that kid will lose his goldylocks..

[Cool King]

American Bang sing the NXT Theme.

[Xero]

Jesus Christ his hair.

[Droford]

I wonder if Young is going to have to shave that hair of his.

[legendkillerRKO]

this heres what you call domination!

[Poit]

Jesus Christ his hair.

He won't have it much longer.

[Droford]

Young/Punk

lol

[Xero]

lol he looks like an Egyptian King version of Cena.

[RatedGSuperstar]

Ahmed Jr. doesn't need weapons, apparently.

[legendkillerRKO]

Jesus Christ his hair.

punk will shave it! hopefully

[Cool King]

It would be great to see Regal using his Brass Knucks in this match.

[RatedGSuperstar]

So I haven't been paying attention to ECW...since when is Zeke from Guyana and not Harlem?

[Xero]

It's Zeke's time, as he throws up the Nation of Domination fist.

Hmmm...

[parkmania]

So I haven't been paying attention to ECW...since when is Zeke from Guyana and not Harlem?

Since they couldn't teach him to speak with the right accent.

[Droford]

Ryder went out hard and ugly

[parkmania]

Nice spear, Tiffy!

[DaVe]

ahahah thats awesome

[Poit]

Go Tiffany!

[screech]

That was great!

[Cool King]

So Tiffany will be in action from now on then I guess?

[VSG]

Damn why couldnt she come knicker-less instead of boot-less?

[legendkillerRKO]

stupid vegetarians...ruin everything

[Droford]

All that needed was

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BtmasQ3lO8M&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BtmasQ3lO8M&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

[Droford]

It would be funny if they ran long and SyFy pulled the plug.

[Xero]

"We want tables" chant?

Fuck that, "we want blood!"

I hope Christian blades just for the fuck of it.

[McLegend]

Why is Joey Stlyes not calling this one match?

[jerichoholicninja]

Is this a new ref?

[VSG]

Joey Styles is probably on WWE.com trying to make this look good for a replay on smackdown!

[Xero]

Why is Joey Stlyes not calling this one match?

He'd be shitting on the product and Vince knows it.

[legendkillerRKO]

so is low ki not on nxt or is he the last announcement?

[parkmania]

so is low ki not on nxt or is he the last announcement?

I musta missed one, because I only have 6:
Jericho/Wade Barrett
Hardy/Justin Gabriel
MVP/Skip Sheffield
Carlito/Michael Tarver
Miz/Daniel Bryan
Punk/Darren Young

[Xero]

DiBiase, Ki and Hennig are missing.

[Droford]

what did Christian do to his Leg?

[Xero]

lol Christian jobs.

XFL wins.

[Droford]

NEW CHAMP!

[legendkillerRKO]

ZEKE!!!!

[ImpactPlayer365]

so that means nothing....

[screech]

FUCK THAT SHIT

[VSG]

Ok I stand corrected again! Didnt see this coming..

[Poit]

Bullshit.

[Cool King]

Wow, I really wasn't expecting that. :wtf:

[Droford]

Last two title changes (major ones) occured when the champ went through a table.

[Xero]

The title comes to someone it'll look bad ass on, and it's retired.

[The Gold Standard]

A title change that no one ever cared about.

[HBPunk]

zeke won??? what did tiffany do?

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>It makes sense really. Zeke can benefit from going to Raw or something as the last ECW champion. Christian doesn't need that</font>

[Xero]

Last two title changes (major ones) occured when the champ went through a table.

"Major"?

[Poit]

zeke won??? what did tiffany do?

Tiffany speared Rosa.

[parkmania]

R-Truth/David Otunga

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>No Kaval. Dammit.</font>

[The Gold Standard]

No Ki, Henning, or Bret?

[legendkillerRKO]

ok so no dibiase...hennig or kaval....

[VSG]

Wait where is Kaval?

[Cool King]

Basically, that match ment nothing. :|

[Droford]

"Major"?
enough

[jerichoholicninja]

Pretty sure Zeke's going to carry that belt for a while. It might not mean anything but they'll use it to put him over.

[ImpactPlayer365]

and ECW is dead

[parkmania]

Ok, so they just showed everyone, but I still didn't see who I missed on my list...

[VSG]

Who released that "spoiler list" anyway?

[parkmania]

[Droford]

NXT is being treated as a live event by my Directv DVR.

Hmm.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

Justin Angel, Daniel Bryan, Skip Sheffield, Wade Barrett, Michael Tarver, Dave Otunga, Heath Slater and Darren Young

[Xero]

NXT is being treated as a live event by my Directv DVR.

Hmm.

My guess is that it'll be training/mentoring angles combined with in-ring matches.

[Emperor Smeat]

At least the good part from the final ECW episode is now more tag teams can be placed on Raw and Smackdown with Goldust/Yoshi, Regal/Zeke, and Shelton/Kozlov adding some new teams to the shows.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>If Kaval doesn't debut shortly after WM, we riot.</font>

[VSG]

Is this the all time record for number of pages on an ECW thread?
