Good show overall. Not as good as last year, but I wasn't expecting it tobe. The one thing I would've liked to see was the debut of some of the OVW guys coming up to ECW (IE Punk, who prolly would've got a more than decent reaction).
Tazz/Lawler: Exactly what I expected.
Angle/Orton: Not great, but nowhere near awful either. Got Angle over as a killer, which was all that it needed to do.
FBI/Crazy-Tajiri: Another fine match. Mamaluke didn't look as good as I've seen him look in ROH. Loved Big Show actully pulling out a new move (For those wondering, he gave Mamaluke a Cobra Clutch into a backbreaker, then flung him across the ring).
Mysterio/Sabu: Any Sabu match that isn't a total clusterfuck is a plus. I marked out for the old school Misterio attire. Finishing spot was sick, but come on, an injury stoppage in ECW?
Dreamer-Funk-Beulah/Edge-Foley-Lita: Funk is insane. Suprised there was no flaming barbed wire table spot. Very good stuff.
Tanaka/Balls: Needed more time. Finishing chair shot was a sight to see.
Eugene/Sandman: Man, was I wishing to see Nick Dinsmore cut a promo on his gimmick.
RVD/Cena: Match of the Night, if only for the crowd atmosphere. The bit with the t shirt and hat was priceless. Now that I think about, the finish was a fine way to go. Of course it'll get overturned tomorrow, but the ECW fans won't care. They got their victory.
