Period.

Punk vs. Striker

Innovator 06-05-2007 10:38 PM

Striker is gonna GO TO SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP

McLegend 06-05-2007 10:38 PM

That dropkick Burke did was pretty sweet.

Good things about ECW (at least, in my opinion):

* Elijah Burke
* CM Punk
* Marcus Cor Von
* Joey Styles
* Matt Striker
* Stevie Richards
* Little Guido
* Kevin Thorn
* The Major Brothers

However, considering there aren't any Tag Team Titles, Guido and Richards don't make appearances, Thorn is going nowhere fast and Joey Styles has been neutered, you can pretty much take it down to Burke, Punk and Cor Von.

Who else would mark out if they changed the name Go To Sleep into the "Punk Punt?"

No one? OK.

Better Than You 06-05-2007 10:43 PM

Striker owns.

TAKE A NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP!

KingofOldSchool 06-05-2007 10:45 PM

I've noticed that Punk is a damn good merchandise mover, probably on par with the Hardys in terms of merchandise levels.

Better Than You 06-05-2007 10:48 PM

I wouldn't go that far just yet, but I'd definatly say he has potential to surpass the entire mid-card in terms of merch after one or two HIGH profile fueds. Easy.

KingofOldSchool 06-05-2007 10:49 PM

Did Striker raid Lex Luger's wardrobe?

What's this, face heat? Good to finally hear from that crowd.

No trust me, I've been to a lot of shows in the last 8 months and I've seen a LOT of Punk shirts, signs, etc.

Also his figures have been selling like hot cakes.

Better Than You 06-05-2007 10:53 PM

While I haven't been to A LOT of shows in the past 6 months (3) I agree. He pushes alot product. But I dont think he's out pushing the Hardys just yet.

Regardless with out a single big fued it's VERY impressive. I mean think about, since coming to the WWE has he even had two PPV blowoff matchs?

I didn't say he was out pushing them, I said he was probably at least on par with them.

You also have to take into account that Punk doesn't have a lot of products out compared to Hardy related stuff.

Better Than You 06-05-2007 10:56 PM

TAKE A NAAAAAAP!

KingofOldSchool 06-05-2007 10:57 PM

So when are we going to see more of the Striker/Burke advancement?

Then, just for the Hell of it, he adds all the other ECW Originals. That would have included Stevie Richards and Little Guido in my version, as weird as it would have been to see them in a main event.

That may actually be watchable.

Predictible as usual but it wasn't too bad of a match.

This loss should get Striker out of the New Breed.

Predicable is not a bad thing. See Vince Russo for a comparison.

McLegend 06-05-2007 10:59 PM

Matt Striker shouldn't be allowed to wrestle.

He's good on the mic so maybe he could be a good manger or something like that. He might even have potential to do color.

Let him do anything else other then wrestle.

Better Than You 06-05-2007 10:59 PM

Boo

I loved it when they were talking about RVD and Tazz said, "We wish him (big pause) good luck with his recovery." During the pause, I immediately said "well in his future endeavors."

So basically, the entire roster. ;)

Striker, like most of ECW is under used. He could so be a great heel. In fact, the New Breed has the talent to stick it to ECW. All members. I think I'd keep everyone but Thorn as singles heels, and use Thorn in Tag Team god knows who with.

Punk is a face, and why the fuck Lashley is considered ECW I dunno, him having the belt is stupid.

My big hopes (that could happen) are that the above get used right, Punk is a major player for the title. Dreamer and Sandman are tag team champions and Hardcore Holly is used correctly when he comes back.

Oh yeah, Heyman writing would be f'in awesome.
