Were you pissed off when... *RAW SPOILER*

I was somewhat peeved at it, but we can look at this from a point of view that can also hype the draft coming up, or at least an ongoing rivalry between the two brands.

Do it so that Theodore Long on this week's SmackDown watched Eric Bishoff ban ECW from his show or whatever, and he is deciding that now is the chance to get one up on RAW by sanctioning a ECW style match on SmackDown (or by making the Eddie vs. Rey match at Judgment Day a ECW rules match, to kill THREE birds with one stone, since that would hype the ECW PPV, sell the Eddie vs. Rey match and boost Judgment Day buyrates, and further along this idea). And then, to top that, also say that anyone who is on RAW who wishes to be a part of the ECW PPV can jump to SmackDown (or something of the sort) to escape the "ban". Eric could counter the SD move by lifting the ban, but it'll be too late to calm Paul Heyman, who is as pissed as ever and makes his move on RAW.

I think the door is wide open to try SOMETHING to hype the ECW PPV on SD. Eddie and Rey used to be ECW talent, so that part could really work, I think. Anyone else agree?
