The story here is that The Miz is the new ECW Champion, John Morrison is proud of Miz, but there are seeds of jealousy, and Mark Henry wants his title back. Tommy Dreamer, Matt Hardy and Evan Bourne are all chasing the title.
There is role reversal, as the faces dominate the match, beating down the ECW Champion, all trying to get a fall over him. Eventually The Miz tags in Mark Henry, who proceeds to toss Evan Bourne around like a rag-doll. Henry then tags The Miz back in without The Miz's permission, hits him with a World's Strongest Slam, and puts Bourne on top for the pin.
Why this is funny:
1) The Miz is the ECW Champion.
2) The faces' heat is drained completely by working a style against the formula the WWE has belted into the fans for so long.
3) Evan Bourne is obliterated and his credibility destroyed, despite being made #1 Contender through the match.
Wait, that doesn't make it funny. It just seems realistic.
Next assignment: Funaki actually wins a major championship.
