No biggie but you listed Dreamer twice.

**NoRoolz** · 06-14-2005, 02:09 PM

That was amazing. Everyone else has summed up my feelings. Did anyone else get shivers when Sandman made his entrance? And when the fans sang along

. A few questions though:
1) What is Foley's beef with Sandman?
2) I heard somewhere that Sandman has been to rehab/jail, for what reasons? If true?
3) Why did fans boo the 619?

I'm so glad I taped this thing, can't believe RVD and Heyman's shoots. Joey Styles is an absolute legend, some of the comments he said had me

. The crowd was amazing too, it was without a doubt, an ECW crowd

. BRING BACK ECW.

**Chavo Classic** · 06-14-2005, 02:20 PM

The fans booed the 619 because it is essentially a move that Rey uses just in the WWE. It's a WWE move, and because it's WWE, the ECW faithful will naturally hate it.

I don't think I really need to add anything to the 19 or so pages other than this was the most satisfying PPV of the previous 4 years and exceeded everyone's expectations. I can only thank everyone involved, whether its Vince or Heyman himself.

Awesome!

**JJ Moore** · 06-14-2005, 02:20 PM

3) Cos it's been turned into a WWE esque move, ECW fans aint to fond of WWE

, that whole match was disappointing.

Yep, Rey is obviously finding it difficult working with his injury and Pychosis just looked rusty. Nice spots but needed some lucha libre chain wrestling and reversal sequences.

Psicosis has no reason to be rusty, he's been wrestling in Mexico.

Didn't think Foley had any problem with Sandman. He praises him in his DVD.

Wasn't Hat Guy

**Mr. JL** · 06-14-2005, 05:48 PM

Yeah, there was a guy with a stray hat on but it wasn't the original.

**Team Sheep** · 06-14-2005, 05:50 PM

I was laughin so hard at Heyman's comments. What an awesome show.

**Somebody's Gotta Die** · 06-14-2005, 06:01 PM

My analysis of ECW One Night Stand:

I think WWE did an outstanding job putting ECW over at One Night Stand and it was a tremendous night...

Definitely the greatest thing I've seen in a very long time...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chris Jericho vs. Lance Storm

- great way to start off the show... Storm looked pretty good and pulled off some pretty good kicks/dropkicks... Jericho basically wanted to put him over here and I loved seeing Jason & Credible get involved with a reunion along with Dawn Marie...

Rating: 3.5/5 (for its position and purpose on the show)

Super Crazy vs. Little Guido (w/FBI) vs. Tajiri (w/Minister, Whipwreck)

- I loved seeing all these guys again... Fast paced old ECW style 3-way and an amazing highlight moonsault off the balcony... Really started the show off well at this point...

Rating: 3.5/5

Rey Mysterio vs. Psicosis

- Surprisingly the weakest match on the show for me... I loved the match and there were some awesome spots, however all the other matches seemed bigger for me... The B-O-R-I-N-G chant was also surprising considering the exciting match these guys could have put on...

Rating: 3/5

***At this point, the WWE guys arrived and they got a lot of mic time and they were running a lot of ECW promos and this is where the show started to seem a little shady... Fortunately, things really picked up...

RVD Shoot Promo

- I found this really entertaining and he really ripped up WWE in this one... You could tell he's truly ECW at heart and I wouldn't be surprised if he got buried or released after some of the cracks he made at WWE writers, storylines, matches, etc. This lead into a really exciting impromptu match...

Sabu vs. Rhyno

- Great match... Not given a lot of time, but they put on a show... Sabu was amazingly over and he put on a good show taking a lot of bumps and risks... This match seemed pretty important, to me at least... Seeing them put on a good match at this point of the show after the RVD promo was good to see... The highlight would be the exciting finish...

Rating: 3.5/5

Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero

- Really good match... However, I truly believe they could have made it a lot better... They didn't pull out all the stops, however it wasn't a bad idea to keep them safe for injury since they are both involved in revamping the SmackDown! brand...

Rating: 3.5/5

Masato Tanaka vs. Mike Awesome

- Amazing performance... Awesome was a little slow, but Tanaka put him over really well and these guys took amazing bumps... This match had so many near falls... Compared to what WWE is putting out there, this match is one of the better matches in a long time... Styles putting over Awesome was very nice and the way he started shooting on him was interesting... The finish was great too when Awesome leaped to the outside out of nowhere...

Rating: 4/5

Paul Heyman Promo

- Really in a good spot on the show... There was truly a lot of emotion... I laughed really hard when he said he smoked a joint with Van Dam in the back... The crowd's respect for Heyman was truly a great thing to see...

Sandman & Dreamer vs. Dudleys

- The interferences of Spike, Storm/Credible, Kid Kash, Axl Rotten/Balls Mahoney, bWo were very exciting early on... The entrances of Sandman and Dreamer were really special to me and Styles put over everyone nicely... The match itself was hardcore, exciting, fast-paced, unpredictable, brutal action... This lead right into the expected brawl and ECW was looking very good... Dreamer really bled his face off and the 3D through the flaming table ignited by Spike was something I thought I'd never see... To add to that, Credible hit the Tombstone Piledriver onto barbed wire... Some really good spots I'd never expect to see on a show basically by WWE...

Rating: 4/5

The random segments for the likes of Roadkill/Doring and Pitbull Gary Wolfe were a little odd and I think they could have come up with something better... The interferences in the main event from all the old ECW alumni divas like Dawn Marie, Francine, Beulah, etc were also a nice touch...

The cabinet and JBL did get a lot of time, however it went over well with the crowd and it let them chant out a little frustration... It didn't go overboard and was easily tolerable...

Joey Styles did an excellent job commentating and putting people over and Mick Foley did a pretty damn good job too considering he does this kind of thing rarely...

The Austin surprise appearance was really great and there were so many spots throughout the night, you could watch a 10 minute clip show of outstanding move recaps... To top it off, Taz came out and choked out angle... Styles: "yeah that's right, TAZ, one Z, ECW Taz"

Overall, I give this show a 4.5/5 because rarely will you see so many good matches on one PPV and the only thing preventing it from getting 5 was Eddie/Benoit, Rey/Psicosis not being as good as possible and the lack of guys like Saturn, Lynn, Funk, Douglas and Raven... They would have truly made the show complete... And RVD competing of course... Funk and Douglas didn't even need to wrestle, just to appear... Saturn would have been great to see, Lynn-RVD obviously and Raven-anyone...

Amazing night...

**Team Sheep** · 06-14-2005, 06:05 PM

The great thing about the Ballroom is that even though it has a small capacity, it's such a small building the noise is so compact and there's no where for it to go, which makes the atmosphere immense.

**The New F'n Show** · 06-14-2005, 06:13 PM

In response to the guy pointing out all the guys that most likely wouldn't be a part of an ECW revamp (like Austin, Taz, JT Smith, Francine, etc.), both Tony Mamaluke and Tracey Smothers still work pretty regularly. A friend of mine who wrestles in mid-state Tennessee had a conversation with Tracey Smothers a few months back and Tracey said without a doubt that ECW was the high point of his carrer in his own opinion.

**cafctom** · 06-14-2005, 06:23 PM

That has to go down as one of the greatest wrestling PPVs of all time.

I would love ECW to come back full-time, but it just seemed fitting to end it the way that it did - With the INSANE main event, followed by ECW giving Bichoff the beating of his life. I thought I would never see the day!

But like I said, I think ECW should be left on the high note that it went out on, that ending couldn't be topped IMO.

**Xerzes** · 06-14-2005, 06:34 PM

Damn my eyes for assuming this would suck and not ordering it. And not checking this thread before now, a day later. I am so buying this DVD.

**Team Sheep** · 06-14-2005, 06:39 PM

RAW tonight's going to look like shit after watching that.

Can't wait for the DVD and I rarely buy the DVD's of shows

**Disturbed316** · 06-15-2005, 04:43 PM

I dont know if anyone else noticed this, but Lance Storm and Sabu couldn't wait to get backstage after their matches were finished, any reason for this?

**zach** · 06-16-2005, 08:02 AM

i dont think anyone mentioned it, but there was a point where it shows a shot of the wwe wrestlers and you can hear edge say to the other guys, "these fans are smart." there were some other out of character moments when they show them if you listen hard enough. it was kinda interesting

I think it went a little something like this...

Snitksy - "Hey guys, I've been down the concessions stands and bought you some hot dogs and drinks just to say thanks for looking after me this first year"

Wrestlers - "Excellent! Cheers Gene, you really didn't have to"

Snitsky - "It's no problems guys. Here I'll just pass them over..."

Wrestlers - "Ok... let me just reeeeach over.... hold on..."

Snitsky - "Have you got hold of th...."

lol just watched through this again, what the fuck was that guy thinking during Sandman's enterance to smack himself in the head with the cane. What a dick

**Hired Hitman** · 06-16-2005, 09:35 PM

He wanted to be like his idol

That crazy motherfucker

**RGWhat316** · 06-16-2005, 11:55 PM

Wow, this was an unbelievable ppv!! I did have a friend that taped it, so I got my chance to watch it. I think everyone has pretty much said how great this was, so I'll keep it short.

Unfortunately, I never really watched ECW when it was on, so I learned quite a bit of the show. The fans are insane. They love to chant, and they will let anyone know what they think.

Joey Styles was awesome. After listening to JR, King, and Cole for all these years, Styles just blows them away.

The shoot promos by Heyman and RVD was damn awesome as well. RVD has a voice, and hated to say "cool" and "whatever" all the time. And you know the passion he has for ECW as he said missing this ppv is worse than missing Wrestlemania. Heyman was emotional as well, but played it off nice by saying he was smoking with RVD.

Great ppv! I hope this did really well, so there's a chance to see more ECW in the future.

The thing that really pissed me off was how he no-sold the crossface. He just layed there, waited a minute or 2, then tapped. He didn't struggle or even act like it hurt. He looked legitimately pissed off after the match. If he wasn't, then why the hell was he in character tonight?

I just read a report over at NoDQ.com, it sounds like I was right about Guerrero. He was pissed off at the crowd and the match, he wasn't even in the mood for the show. Despite all that, there's no excuse for him no-selling the crossface. I lost quite a bit of respect for him for that bit.

zach Posts: 87	i dont think anyone mentioned it, but there was a point where it shows a shot of the wwe wrestlers and you can hear edge say to the other guys, "these fans are smart." there were some other out of character moments when they show them if you listen hard enough. it was kinda interesting

RGWhat316 YesYesYes! Posts: 4,163	Wow, this was an unbelievable ppv!! I did have a friend that taped it, so I got my chance to watch it. I think everyone has pretty much said how great this was, so I'll keep it short. Unfortunately, I never really watched ECW when it was on, so I learned quite a bit of the show. The fans are insane. They love to chant, and they will let anyone know what they think. Joey Styles was awesome. After listening to JR, King, and Cole for all these years, Styles just blows them away. The shoot promos by Heyman and RVD was damn awesome as well. RVD has a voice, and hated to say "cool" and "whatever" all the time. And you know the passion he has for ECW as he said missing this ppv is worse than missing Wrestlemania. Heyman was emotional as well, but played it off nice by saying he was smoking with RVD. Great ppv! I hope this did really well, so there's a chance to see more ECW in the future.
