Is Anyone Going?
ECW Wrestling
Sun, Jun. 11th 7:45 PM
Hammerstein Ballroom New York, NY

www.ecw.com

Tickets sold out in two hours, in PA here, didnt get a chance to grab ticks. Expect to see RVD use his Money in the Bank to be crowned the New World Champion.

RVD use the money in the bank? What is that Huge RVD fan but have not seen him or WWe in a long time. I tuned in after he cam back from the injury but never showed up on tv. So what is the money in the bank? Thanks

Wow-Fast sell out. Been to three ECW shows. Most crazy shit I have ever seen. Was like one big MOB

NewJack got beer and blood on me :D

Money In The Bank is a 6 way ladder match they now hold at Wrestlemania. The winner gets a WWE title shot "whenever" they want it. Edge won the money in the bank last year, and then won the WWE title from John Cena after the main event at New Years Revolution. RVD won the money in the bank this year. And said he plans on using it and being "extreme" The rumor going around the net is, They will have RVD face John Cena, at ONS2, and since all the hardcore ECW fans will hate John Cena, that will turn him heel, and eventually I assume Cena will get the title back somehow, and a heel cena will face, a "face" Triple H at summerslam

give me francine,beulah,and kimona!!!

Is Anyone Going?
:hw:

oh my fucking god, i will be at home living large on this day, its the superbowl for me, ECW is better than any football game or any basketball game in the fucking world!!!!!!!

marking it down now, i dont give a fuck who's on the card, but i have always said SHANE DOUGLAS AND TAZ pleeeeeeeease, bam bam bigelow, terry funk, raven, saturn and kronus! eliminators

its gonna suck with no dudley boyz, they will be missed.

any word on the card?

boy i hope you're right, that would be sweet seeing rvd win the title that night

They originally thought HHH vs RVD but with HHH turning face soon and Cena now the most hated in WWE, it makes sense to have Cena face RVD.

The funny thing is than both money in the bank matches will have been against Cena and he will lose both times.

Cena sucks so much cocks. He's almost as bad as Triple H. Can't wait for RVD to win the big strap.

Finally RVD is going to get a fucking push. I had a chance to meet him and had him sign my HighTimes. Got that shit framed. I might have to get that PPV just to be apart of it all .The 1st ppv was killer an dthe rise and fall of ECW is kick ass. Going to be a fun day watch some old tapes and drin and smoke my ass off.

Pogo is STOKED!

RVD RVD RVD
No card yet-if you find any info post here

there is no card yet because they still have backlash. Once may hits, you will see the push towards the ecw ppv

They sold tickets so I would think they would give some idea who was going to be on the card. Vince is a money whore and never respected WCW or ECW-that is why he killed both of them...

didnt koronus die?

didnt koronus die?

not that I know of

CANT> FUCKING> WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



im sucha ECW mark... last years event surpased my expectations honestly.


i expect the same amount of emotion, if not more since its based around RVD

too bad the dudleys and raven wont be there


it could be very bad if cena is champ and goes into that place.. they will eat him alive. an ECW crowd is going to be pro-RVD in the first place, but against cena, they will go apeshit, especially if RVD wins the title (which he should, or else itll be a fucking joke of an event... i would still rather see no wwe guys at all)







EDIT: i hate you pogo... lucky fuck

i'd love to see RVD full speed vs cena, the vam terminator, somersault planchas into the crowd, van daminator, fuck yeah

Hey guys, This thread needs to go. Haven't you been reading PapaBoner's posts? ECW isn't really wrestling.

Yeah, there has definitely been this much interest in your average Smackdown ppv lately. :rolleyes:

God, I miss ECW and Heyman.

didnt koronus die?

Kronus wrestled at both Hardcore Homecomings last year (June and November). But I haven't heard his name in 2006.

I'd imagine he's still a little out of shape and working east coast indies.

The Eliminators were hardcore back in the day. I remember when they came to Raw and gave Total Elimination to some ring announcer. The crowd went INSANE.

fuck poppa rod, bitch can suck my shit

anyone get Hardcore Homecoming 2 dvd? i got a rip of the first one online and it sucked ass to be honest... the edits were terrible


i heard there were no edits inthe november one, and the match list looked good

havent seen that one around

EDIT: i hate you pogo... lucky fuck
Haha I'll try and take some good pics for you guys at the event. I'm pretty excited about this, hopefully it will be as good if not better than last year show.

anyone get Hardcore Homecoming 2 dvd? i got a rip of the first one online and it sucked ass to be honest... the edits were terrible


i heard there were no edits inthe november one, and the match list looked good

I went to the November show last year. There were a few duds on that card but overall it was a great show based on the Dudleys and Rotten Brothers matches alone.

I believe the dvd is being released in May.

I'd prefer to see Edge vs RVD. I think that's the best match that could be had. Fuck Cena and HHH.

ok so i was thinking of potential matches... and they are hurtin since they wont be able to get (or dont want) TNA guys

people who wont show up:
Devon Dudley
Bubba Ray Dudley
Spike Dudley
Sinister Minister
Jerry Lynn
Konnan
Rhino
Sabu? (hes starting a program with samoa joe, but its fuckin Sabu, so who knows)
Simon Diamond
Raven
Shane Douglas



thats a pretty big list of guys who wont be able to show, maybe thats why they want to (yet again) inject some wwe 'flavor' into it

personally, id rather see RVD wrestle an incredible match with another ECW guy (Lynn or Sabu)... instead of winning the wwe title from lame ass John Cena... the only reason the match will be good is because RVD will flying and the crowd will be sick


thats if Cena is still champ by then... who knows (the crowd would murder him if he was)

i heard sabu will be there. also I heard a dean malenko vs chris benoit tribute match, cena vs rvd, a return of terry fuck. Mick Foley would be there, sandman

heres an ok interview with Dreamer.. i cant friggin wait.. ill have to go back and watch ONS from last year (and not the shitty edited dvd)

http://www.ecw.com/superstars/dreamer_interview.html

The scafolding match with dreamer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJyvCczzJ88)

my dick gets hard thinking of ECW :D

How do you guys think the WWE will push ONS?

I remember last year they had Bischoff try to stop ONS from happening and Vince stepped in and made sure it happened...

What will they do to push it this year?

well i actually thought it was going to start last week on RAW with the Spirit Squad

i see a decent faction gunning for RVD's title shot, and he just gets beat down each week until Dreamer/Sandman hit the ring from the crowd to protect him.... then its again WWEvsECW (unfortunately)... and thats the lead in to 1 or 2 cross promotion matches at ONS



of course though, i want ZERO wwe guys... even if it means RVD doesnt win the title

didnt koronus die? He got really chubby after Saturn left ECW, I know that.

Let's see what kind of card they get

ONS?

Mike Awesome better show up again. He is the true ECW world Champion not that crap in the bag I cant wrestle anymore Tazz.

Two matches that are definite are:
RVD vs Cena or HHH
Malenko vs benoit in an Eddie Guerrero tribute match

i was watchin ECW: Bloodsport and thinkin of some potential matches

they could do the Barely Legal 3 way dance again, but most likely will put Terry Funk vs. Cactus Jack

then im thinkin a BWO vs. FBI


maybe another international shootout with Super Crazy vs. Tajiri vs. Psicosis (or even maybe Rey Rey... doubtful though)

then maybe some random shit like Dreamer/Sandman vs. Impact Players

if they get Jericho, him vs. Too Cold Scorpio

maybe another rematch of Mike Awesome vs. Masato Tanaka



or if they are crazy enough, and can sign Sabu, a no-rope barbed wire match against Funk or Sandman

I'd like to see the Impact Players, especially after last year. I have a feeling Funk and Foley are going to destroy each other.

I wish I could go. Tickets on E-Bay and StubHub are fucking pricey though.

Ticketmaster fucked me over for tickets. I was there last year and it was great. Those of you going will have a great time

I never really watched ECW, so I hope that they'll go back to they're extremely hardcore/crazy shit like the barbed wire for ropes.

Mcmahon watered down the whole ECW deal on his show.

The last One Night Stand was amazing and genuine. Totally heartfelt. You can tell the former ECW wrestlers had a special relationship with Heyman and their fans. I saw ECW in Virginia and it was incredible.

I'll order One Night Stand 2 and hope for two things...

One- Let SuperCrazy wrestle like he used to. That guy was amazing in ECW and now they got him driving a fucking lawnmower...insulting.

Two- Keep non-ECW wrestlers to a minimum role.

You're right about SuperCrazy. I remember the insane matches he had with Little Guiwido and Tajiri.

Who gave RVD that bad nickname? He don't need another nickname. Give him a chance to talk and a little push. Got to be HHH

Rob Van Dam
Will Mr. Money in the Bank be extreme at One Night Stand?

I wish I could go, but I have a W-1 show that night, so I'll be there. But I'll see the PPV.

Mike Awesome better show up again. He is the true ECW world Champion not that crap in the bag I cant wrestle anymore Tazz.

Mike Awesome is a piece of shit. That cocksucker screwed over ECW big time when it couldn't afford it. Lo and behold, who did he drop the title to when he ran off to WCW? None other than Taz.

Listen to Joey Style's commentary during Awesome match at ONS. You'll hear the ECW side to the story. However, I can't blame him for jumping IF his checks were bouncing.

Mike Awesome got a better offer than he thought imaginable. He betrayed ECW, but that's business in the late 90's.

How can you betray a company when they bounce checks to you?

How can you betray a company when they bounce checks to you?

By walking out on your own contract to sign a new one with another company. I don't think ECW was bouncing yet at that point, IIRC.

Stone Cold should make a comeback at this event. He was an ECW guy and place would erupt for him to comeback. I would like to see Sabu vs. Terry Funk in a match. RVD IS THE NEW CHAMP

..... he came to ONS last year.... it wouldnt be as impactful, but im sure he'll probably show up in some form...

I was all pumped up when they did the RVD chasing the title Vs Awesome. I was at the Lauderdale Show and man that was amazing. I have never seen anything like it. The crowd was so fucking crazy-like one Big MOB

By walking out on your own contract to sign a new one with another company. I don't think ECW was bouncing yet at that point, IIRC.

They were indeed bouncing checks at that time.

Enough with all the shit talking on Mike Awsome, the dude rocked a mullet. I cried when he cut it off. :(

And then he became the Fat Chick Thriller. What a homersexual.

All I'm saying is RVD v. Sabu, stretcher match. Their feud was so fuckin awesome.

I miss ECW....Sandman and 2 Cold dancing...Shane and Francine...Hat Guy, Fake Howard Stern in the audience...Come on, you all know you bought the Kimonna Wanna Laya's video "dancing atop the ECW arena." :p

BTW, Chronos was in a shmoe video with Nicole Bass. Very sad. :(

mike awesome is bar none the best big man ever in wrestling

who cares if he screwed ecw, he's in it for a career as many are, and i'm sure he doesnt regret doing it

i have that video :D

Extreme Warfare Vol 2 :clap:

Public Enemy vs. 9-1-1.... Bill Alfonso Special Guest Referee

Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Terry, Bam, Bam, Gordy In a BAttle Of The Bam Bam's

hahahaha

they are actually bringing ecw back full time it is going to replace velocity on the web till the get a tv deal

I would love to attend this but I'm in California. It would kick so much ass!



But all be watching it on PPV. ;)

as much as it pissed me off that Mike Awesome left the way he did, it did produce an interesting storyline for both ECW and WWF. So i dont totally hate that he did it.


but either way way

F Mike Awesome
F Extreme Warfare Vol. 2 (yea... i too bought it.....)

It looks like the set-up for ONS will be similar to last year in that it will be "ECW vs. WWE" all over again. USA network will have a 2-hour "head-to-head" special on June 7th that will include wrestlers from both RAW and SmackDown.

I read yesterday that they are bringing back ECW full time later this year and have already sent contracts out to Sandman and several other people.

Dreamer and Heyman are going to be doing the booking for the show. I just hope the WWE doesn't try to tone the product down and let's ECW be as "EXTREME" as they used to be!

I am totally looking forward to the full time return of the federation! :D

I'm half and half on the ECW brand returning.

On one hand, I would love to see it because ECW was/is my favorite promotion of all-time. I enjoy All Japan, New Japan, IWA, old NWA, and the like... but ECW was like a secret-club that only smarks could apprecitate. Good hardcore action and awesome chain wrestling. They were still telling stories in the ring when WCW/WWF turned to Smash TV.

On the other hand, I don't want to see a bastardized version in WWE's control. When they bring it back, which is looking to be around mid-June, they had better do it right. Give matches significant TV time, don't let bad WWE development talent job out the ECW guys if they aren't ready, etc.

June 7th there will be a ECW vs. WWE show airing on USA, a few days before the PPV. So it's possible the announcement will be made maybe even tonight at Backlash. RVD might close the show with a challenge for whoever the champ is for the ECW PPV. Apparently, Sabu (who's already signed) and Heyman will be at TV tomorrow. Whether or not they get on Raw has yet to be known.

If anyone wants some ECW tapes then hit me up at nohosternfan@hotmail.com

I got like over 100 of just ECW

i wonder if the crossover guys like rvd are gonna get paid thier full contract or take a cut to work ecw?

and what's up with the dudleys & t&a?

Dudleys won't be there since I believe their TNA contract won't be up for quite some time. It's a fucking shame too since nobody were better heels than they were.

i expect the ECW storyline to start tonight... maybe just a blurb from RVD... either way i cant wait

http://www.steelcagematch.com/images/lawler-ecw.jpg

yup

anything? Yet?

anything? Yet?
Joey Styles "quit" WWE and gave one of the greatest promos of all time. I can only hope that it'll be posted online somewhere because it was a thing of beauty. Completely 100% anti-WWE. If Styles doesn't get an Emmy for his performance, I'd be very disappointed.

last year i made my own ONS dvd cause of the edits of the wwe released dvd... so this year im savin allthe build-up promos/matches to burn to a dvd.... i should have that whole interview up tomorrow or wenesday (although the bittorrent of the whole show will be up soon i guess)

Maybe Al Snow and "head" will make an appearance.

I'd expect a JBL/RVD Title match at ONS.

Edge and Foley also seems like a nobrainer.

I'd expect a JBL/RVD Title match at ONS.

Nah...you'll see RVD take on Cena or whomever is RAW champ by the time ONS comes around.

You'll also see Chris Benoit vs. Dean Malenko (who'll come out of retirement for one more match), as a tribute to Eddie.

Could the Blue World Order reappear? How about Hard Core Steve Corino? Tracey Smothers, Sal E Gratziano and Little Guido, the FBI?

Could the Blue World Order reappear? How about Hard Core Steve Corino? Tracey Smothers, Sal E Gratziano and Little Guido, the FBI?
The only people confirmed at this point are RVD, Sabu, Danny Doring, Roadkill, Tajiri, and CW Anderson. WWE has reportedly contacted a Lance Storm (who declined a full-time return), Masato Tanaka, Francine, the Sandman, Axl Rotten, and Balls Mahoney. It's expected a lot of the former ECW guys who are wrestling for WWE now would make the switch (i.e. Psicosis, Kid Kash, Super Crazy).

Also, Rhino's contract with TNA is up this summer and he has expressed interest in ECW. Justin Credible wanted to participate (and had even received a contract in the mail from WWE) but the new MTV project, Wrestling Society X, has been picked up by MTV so he's now under contract to them.

I heard Terry Funk is signed to appear and I would assume Mick Foley

Sorry but the real ECW is dirt napped. The proof is in the PADDING!

Just checked the WWE version of the ECW web site and it looks like they signed a few names

ECW has signed several names from its past, including The Sandman, Francine, Danny Doring, Tony Mamaluke, Sabu, Jazz, Axl Rotten, Balls Mahoney and C.W. Anderson.

hey i was there the night Kimona stripped... and of course.. got the dvd.. man that was one hot night.. and of course. the ECW Arena never had any air conditioning.. LOL

RVD just did a promo with ECW in it. Looks like the angles are going to start

Rumors are that Foley may resume the anti-hardcore gimmick and become the first ECW mega-heel. We'll see what happens.

Just nailed Dreamer in the face with a barbed wire club-looks like you are right. Crowd is locked up-confused a shit

Less than a month away... I can't wait. Shoudl see some set up for it tonight I would think?

The Latest On The ECW TV Situation

While early reports indicated that WWE was planning to have ECW as an internet-only show, it is now felt within the company that for the re-launch of the promotion to be a success, they need some sort of TV outlet.

From what we can gather, the main slot being looked at right now for ECW is the 2:00 A.M. replay of RAW A.M. USA Network’s schedule recently got updated, and starting in June they list that timeslot as “TBA”.

Vince McMahon reportedly does not want to add another day of TV tapings to their heavy schedule as he feels that two per week is enough. However, many think it would be a very bad idea to have the ECW shows taped before Smackdown, which at one point was the dead set plan.

As far as we can tell, WWE does still plan to go ahead with ECW touring around the country to all the same venues they used to in Philadelphia, New York, Florida, Southern California, and other hot spots for the company.

That's stupid. They should just let ECW be autonomous. Give them their own deal and tv taping for a USA show. Hell, put them head to head against TNA. :p

Vince will never give ECW it's due. IT's his little money train he pulls of the shelf and puts back up. Don't forget he already had a chance with the ECW Invasion that they totally fucked up

anyone hear the dudleyz on impact yesterday, saying taking it to the extreme is the flavor the month, let it die and the heart and soul are here not there.

ecw will air on the sci fi channel i think they will have a press release soon,you could go to lords of pain .com to look for more wrestling news :mad:

Vince will never give ECW it's due. IT's his little money train he pulls of the shelf and puts back up. Don't forget he already had a chance with the ECW Invasion that they totally fucked up

Vince messed up both ECW and WCW. Although, WCW mostly did it to themselves. They over-played the NWO Angle by letting too many people in. Also, they couldn't take down the WWE when they were winning the Monday night wars with Nitro.

Anyway, I hope they spin off ECW as it's own entity and just have them back in the Bingo halls (old-school style). You can't get that type of excitement and feel part of the action like that anymore. EC f'n W !!!

I bet they will ruin ECW. They cant tape their matches before Smackdown. They need to have the bingo hall and the guy in the hat and hawian shirt.

You can't really say that about WCW doing it to them self. They still had like a 3-5share (not really sure) and they were still running nose to nose with WWF and could have at any time depending on hot angles. The whole sale of the company and how it went down is shady. When WWF took over WCW (What a night that was-still watch that tape.) and all the hardcore WCW fans left. The WWF product had a slight bump at the start but all the fans said fuck it to wrestling. The WWF never capitalized on that audience and could not attract the ECW market even with the invasion angles. The mad e no effort to make money with the products they purchased. He " Vince " Won and ran both products into the ground even if he helped fund ECW through it's conception.

It's TRUE-IT's Damn TRUE

WOW-Looks like ECW might get tv. Is this a joke or something? Vince make a fucking mistake in business? ECW going to rise again? WOW

Breaking News: ECW Timeslot Revealed
Added on 05/20/06 at 5:40 PM
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer is reporting that the Sci Fi Network will be issuing a press release announcing a 12-week run of Extreme Championship Wrestling (operated under WWE) every Tuesday.

According to the latest reports, the debut date for the TV show will be on June 13 (two days after ECW One Night Stand II) and will be taped earlier that night in Trenton, NJ. Although not confirmed, the show is expected to have a 10pm timeslot.

More On ECW's Timeslot On SCI-FI

As noted earlier, an ECW show is expected to debut on The Sci-Fi Network on June 13th at 10 p.m.

The debut date, nor the time slot are official at the moment, but both are likely at this point. The show will be taped prior to the Smackdown television tapings in Trenton on the same night.

A press release is expected to be released on Tuesday from The Sci-Fi Network. ECW will be getting a 12-week tryout run.


SPECULATION CONTINUES ABOUT ECW/SCI F TIME SLOT
By: Bob Ryder
5/21/2006 11:20:13 AM

Fans are continuing to speculate on a potential ECW time slot on the Sci Fi Network. Dave Meltzer wrote on his WrestlingObserver.com website last week that an announcement could be made within the next few days that Sci Fi would begin airing ECW programming within the next few days.

1WRESTLING.COM:
The speculation about a time slot was fueled when SciFi.com added an ECW forum to their Message Board. The ECW forum was quickly taken down after 1WRESTLING.COM and other websites reported on it.

Now the speculation has focused on a potential day and time the ECW show might air. Fans have pointed out that SciFi.com lists a Tuesday night 10pm time slot as TBA beginning on June 13. No other timeslots on the SciFi schedule are listed as TBA.

No official announcement has been made yet by either SciFi or by WWE, but fans are continuing to speculate about when and where the show might air

ready to see the queen of extreme..francine!!

ECW on the Sci-Fi Channel ? OH MY GODDDD :omfg:

Beulah McGillicutty has not signed on with ECW just yet but WWE officials have talked about bringing her in, although she's committed to being a mom. ECWWrestlingNews.com has been reporting that there is a good chance that she'll make an appearance at ECW One Night Stand. Since Tommy Dreamer is in charge, if she ever wants to come in, she'll be allowed to come in.


I think Tommy will talk her into it. What a pop she will get

Press Release: WWE Confirms ECW On SCI-FI
Added on 05/25/06 at 09:52 AM

STAMFORD, Conn., May 25, 2006 - World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc., today announced the official launch of ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling®) as a brand extension to its RAW® and SmackDown® franchises.

After acquiring the ECW assets in 2003, WWE spent the past few years re-introducing ECW to the global WWE audience and increasing the interest in its unique brand of sports entertainment. To date, WWE has successfully released three ECW DVD’s, all of which have become best sellers, and produced a very profitable ECW pay-per-view event in June 2005, with another ECW pay-per-view scheduled for this June 11, 2006. With consumer interest at an all-time high, WWE is introducing ECW as a complementary brand to RAW and SmackDown.

“After keeping the ECW concept alive and creating an enormous cult-like following for all things ECW from DVD’s to PPV’s to books, we feel that now the time is right to officially launch ECW as its own stand-alone franchise,” said Vince McMahon, WWE Chairman. “RAW, SmackDown and ECW now represent a portfolio of WWE brands for fans of all ages and interests to enjoy.”

Similar to WWE’s RAW and SmackDown brands, WWE will produce, market and promote a full line of ECW products from television programs to pay-per-views to live events to licensed consumer goods.

In a related announcement, The SCI FI Channel today announced it would start airing one-hour episodes of a new ECW live television program, debuting June 13 at 10 p.m. ET

World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: WWE) is an integrated media and entertainment company headquartered in Stamford, Conn., with offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Toronto and London. Additional information on the company can be found at wwe.com and corporate.wwe.com

New York, N.Y., May 25, 2006 - SCI FI Channel today announced that World Wrestling Entertainment®, the producer of the No. 1 weekly basic cable TV series, “Monday Night RAW “on USA Network, will debut a summer series on Tuesday, June 13, at 10 p.m. ET/PT. ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling®) will be an alternative brand of wrestling suited to fit the SCI FI Channel’s commitment to fuel the imagination.

"Research tells us that there's a healthy appetite for wrestling among SCI FI viewers," said Bonnie Hammer, President, USA and SCI FI Channel. "With ECW, we're able to deliver to those fans unique action with a twist that's perfect for SCI FI."

“ECW on SCI FI will push the boundaries of sports entertainment in new and unexpected ways,” said Vince McMahon, Chairman of World Wrestling Entertainment.

MTV? Wrestling? Kidding Right?

Unfortunately, no. And what's worse is I dunno anything else about it, besides the fact that it had Sean Waltman (X-Pac, 6-Pac, Lightning Kid, whatever) and Chris Jericho too. Of course Waltman's going to Mexico and Jericho's too busy doing crap radio for that other sat company.

And way to post that press release before me. :) E-C-DUB! E-C-DUB! E-C-DUB! Sha-sha-sha-sha-sha-sha-shakeituuuuuup.

nice to see ECW back on tv but sci-fi.....fuck it i'll watch it any where :D

I said the exact same thing. I don't watch Sci-Fi ever. BUt there's a time for everything. Apparently it's 6/13, 10 PM.

Headbutt.

I just wish they would let Paul put on a tour and keep the WWE hands off it.

that would be sick small venues

So far, they've booked New Alhambra (The ECW Arena, but fixed up better), and some little sports complex in PA as well.... i forget the name.

If you want, check out gerweck.net, I get a lot of info from there.

gerweck.net nice i'll check it out :D

They had a sweet fucking hall in Lauderdale. I'm pretty stoned so I don't recall the name. Place was crazy. Most insane crowd I have ever had the pleasure of being at an even with. Never seen anything like it and I was hooked

They need to get the Elk's Lodge on Queens Blvd. Balcony dives, OHMIGAWD!

I'm shocked they signed the Sandman

Hey Toker did you leave general chat for good, haven't seen you around ina while? Smoke up brother.

Major Details On The New ECW Booking Team
Added on 05/26/06 at 11:06 AM

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that there are conflicting stories regarding the booking of the new ECW. Several people within the company continue to say that Ed Koskey will be on the booking team as the eyes and ears of WWE management, mainly Stephanie McMahon. If Koskey is on the team, he would only be there for a limited amount of time during the week due to his role on the WWE writing team.

Others are saying that Koskey is now out of the picture, and it’s just Heyman and Dreamer, despite Stephanie McMahon pushing to keep Koskey in the ECW circle. It’s well known that Stephanie McMahon does not like Paul Heyman.

I think its called the War Memorial or Veteran's Memorial. We drove down there for a house show once before they started doing shows in Kissimmee. Those were some crazy shows. Best times I ever had at wrestling shows, even better than ppv's i went to.

ECW VS WWE Wrestlers Tonight On RAW

UFC's Reaction To WWE's 'Shoot' Promo
Added on 06/04/06 at 8:40 PM

On this past week's edition of Smackdown, Paul Heyman mentioned that Kurt Angle had issued an open challenge for ECW One Night Stand to any man from any type of ring, four sided, six sided or eight sided. The "unofficial" response from UFC in regards to the statement was pure laughter. Also, some people found it to be rather interesting that WWE would slightly acknowledge TNA and UFC on WWE television, albeit without saying the names itself.

cena, edge, randy orton, kurt angle

fuck this shit

this isnt an ecw show

i'm not getting it now, what a fucking WASTE!!!!!!!!!

BIGGEST FUCKING WASTE EVER

RANDY ORTON VS KURT ANGLE? HAHAHA I LOVE HOW THEY PASS OFF KURT AS ECW, FUCKING STUPID

YOU GUYS ARENT BUYING INTO THIS GARBAGE ARE YOU? ECW IS DEAD

RANDY ORTON VS KURT ANGLE? HAHAHA I LOVE HOW THEY PASS OFF KURT AS ECW, FUCKING STUPID

YOU GUYS ARENT BUYING INTO THIS GARBAGE ARE YOU? ECW IS DEAD


Yes.... and no.

ECW as the true hardcore fans know it, yeah, that died in 2001, the day Paul E. showed up on RAW. (Back then, Raw Is War, who cares.)

However.... the spirit of it is still alive. If it wasn't, there wouldn't have even been a ONS last year, noone would be chanting those 3 letters still, and RVD would likely be on his way to TNA. Instead, they're gonna do (I hope) what ECW was known for, and that's bringing back that style of wrestling first.

Yeah, the hardcore spots are cool..... we all love seeing Sandman hit people with his stick, and Sabu flub Arabian Facebusters.... but ECW did have the side to it that pushed WRESTLING.

That's where Kurt Angle comes in, and THAT makes perffect sense. Push the wrestling and get the image of 'garbage matches' out of the heads of the marks that still think 'Michinoku Driver II's are 'Sit down slams' (Check the end of the women's match on RAW.) What's better is Joey [Styles] actually knows what the hell Angle's holds will be called, and will call them correctly.

But all said and done, it's still gonna end up being WWE product.... but even a watered down ECW is better than anything else they've been giving us.

If you still think it's a waste..... Go watch Kane play with himself, and 40 minutes of movie promotion, on Monday nights.

Or go listen to Ferrall, he's less annoying than JR & THe King.

i cant believe this doesnt piss anyone else off

the big show on a ecw ppv?

they spoiled us last year with the first one, now they're just fuckin with us

the big show on a ecw ppv?

they spoiled us last year with the first one, now they're just fuckin with us

big show is not on an ecw ppv. Big show is in the 20 man battle royale on wednesday on usa network WWE vs ECW

RANDY ORTON VS KURT ANGLE? HAHAHA I LOVE HOW THEY PASS OFF KURT AS ECW, FUCKING STUPID

YOU GUYS ARENT BUYING INTO THIS GARBAGE ARE YOU? ECW IS DEAD

Tell me about it -it's a fucking JOKE...If they wanted this to work it would be all ECW and fuck this draft pick shit. I have been away from wrestling but what the fuck is that all about? This has Stephanie McMahon written all over it. What a waste of the PPV-I will wait till the DVD if I even get it then. Fuck it watch the Rise and Fall of ECW and call it a night. ECW was dead when Vince bought it. Dead is right

WOW-someone that is happy with that shit. then again I bet you would like anything the Stephanie trots out on the air you mark

Forever Hardcore is good too, it gets the people that WWE couldn't buy for their DVD.

WOW-someone that is happy with that shit. then again I bet you would like anything the Stephanie trots out on the air you mark


Yeah, I"m the mark... right. :rolleyes:

I'm merely going to reserve any real judgement until I see the new product. I know as well as you do it's not the real thing. But if the product is better than the snoozefest they call Smackdown, and the rapidly-getting-worse Raw. then it can't be that bad. I"m happy with anything that will help elevate the word SPORT, over the word ENTERTAINMENT. because quite frankly, I'm sick of the real marks, the ones that scream and cheer and boo and support all of these gimmick wrestlers, instead of the ones that can actually GO.

All I ask is that you reserve judgement until you actually see it. Until then, bashing it won't really do much.

I just wish they had a clue and they would have run with the 1st invasion. They should have sent Paul and Tazz down to ECW and let them run it. Do a PPV now and again. Invade WWE and raid if you want but the way they are doing thins is retarded. I'm from the old school. So they lost me when WCW went under with ECW. They lost a lot of wrestling fans and never got them back. I want it to be good but they don't have the writing talent to get guys like me back and interested. I guess we will see what happens but last night sucked in my opinion and what they are doing is the wrong direction in my opinion.

I have to agree, last night was trash. Sabu looked older than ever before too. From what I"m hearing the ECW stuff will be Paul & Tommy, for the most part, and that's about as vintage as it gets. But yeah, we'll see.

yea but they are under someone thumb. What is up with all the WWE guys. Vince is the man and always has say in everything but I question some of the moves. His daughter is the worst thing to happen to wrestling. 2nd is HHH - Rule #1 Never Work With Family.

I want it to be good but they don't have the writing talent to get guys like me back and interested.

Yet you still seems to watch Raw every week. Shut the fuck up, mark. You eat what Vince feeds you and come back for more.

No I don't I have not watched RAW since they took over WCW. I just now started to program the TIVO since I can record everything. Still can't watch it. Don't have any idea who 1/2 the people are. Spirit Club? What the Fuck? It's like the HHH show from what little I have watched over the past two weeks. Did I tell you to blow me yet? Blow Me

The McMahons' Plans For ECW

Originally Shane McMahon had pushed hard for the idea of ECW to be an internet only property, with no television and nothing but internet video shows as coverage of the promotion. This idea was obviously nixed when the deal with the Sci-Fi Channel came through, something that is giving Vince McMahon even more incentive to really try and do something big with this ECW "brand" returning under the WWE banner.

Vince has been putting a lot of time into the new ECW as of late, and is really trying to make this one count. With Vince being so enthusiastic about the new ECW it’s making things hard for Stephanie McMahon, who one source says would get the whole ECW thing dropped if she had the power to. Stephanie has never liked Paul Heyman from the beginning, and still does not think that the revival of ECW is a good idea.

WWE writers Dave Lagana and Ed Koskey were both big fans of ECW before the company closed down in 2001, Koskey being heavily rumored as part of the new ECW booking team. While Koskey has been thought of in the past as nothing more than a spy for Stephanie in the new ECW, due to the fact that he was an ECW fan back in the day there is some hope that he could make some positive contributions to the booking team.

Paul Heyman Reveals Plans For The New ECW

This week the Miami Herald newspaper conducted an interview with Paul Heyman this week. As always, Heyman was very opinionated and had a lot to say regarding ECW, WWE, TNA and more.

Below are the highlights of the interview:

On ECW's Return: ECW was going to return with or without Heyman involved, so he figured it was best to have a say in his creation being brought back. Most of his concerns about the return have been addressed. The new ECW won't be a nostalgia show. It will be a progressively thinking promotion. It will have the most contemporary music, the most riveting and compelling characters and it will not rely on stars that were hot five or ten years ago.

Heyman's New Vision For ECW: Like before, ECW will offer a balance. "This is going to be everything you loved about the old ECW and thinking into the future". Heyman's goal is to use the most hard-hitting action and realistic storylines to produce a product that neither RAW or SmackDoown! can compete with.

Vampires in ECW?: The original story was taken out of context but yes, there are plans for a Vampire group in ECW. Reason being, Vampire culture is very popular with the youth culture in today's society.

Heyman explains, "They're called bite clubs, and it is kids, kind of like the Gothic scene now. It's a real culture that's out there, and it's very popular, and it's very hot. Anybody that follows the New York or Los Angeles club scene will find out there are a lot of kids into this right now. If I'm going to do a progressively thinking promotion one of the influences we're gong to have is what's hot with kids today, and what's hot with kids today is vampires. That is something I would do with the right people and with the right storyline."

Heyman Shoots on TNA Wrestling: "I don't think TNA is even a consideration to anyone in this industry. I wish that they were, but the problem with TNA is they never branded themselves. Instead of taking advantage of a tremendous opportunity, they complained. They said, `I've been held back. I wasn't given an opportunity. I didn't get this. I didn't get that".

Heyman says another another thing they did in TNA wrongwas that they didn't brand new stars to be their stars. They didn't make Samoa Joe their star. They didn't make Abyss their lead star. They should have taken these lead guys and branded them so people identify them directly with TNA.

Vince has been putting a lot of time into the new ECW as of late, and is really trying to make this one count. With Vince being so enthusiastic about the new ECW it’s making things hard for Stephanie McMahon, who one source says would get the whole ECW thing dropped if she had the power to. Stephanie has never liked Paul Heyman from the beginning, and still does not think that the revival of ECW is a good idea.

Triple H needs to shut that bitch up!!!

Triple H needs to shut that bitch up!!!

My thoughts exactly. Funny how the stronger Stephanie's influence in the company has been, the worse the product has been and the lower the ratings have gone.

It pisses me off that some spoiled bitch like her with the body of a linebacker thinks she knows what the fans (mostly male) want...and she thinks she knows more than the fans or a genious like Heyman.

It seems that for whatever reason Stephanie has a lot more power in the direction of the company than Shane too. I can't understand this, as I would think Shane would merit more power than her......Shane for the most part I think knows what the fans want, as evidenced by the effort and crazt bumps he puts forth in his matches.

ECW Sucks..it's for show! Funk, Sandman..who wants to see these old rinkled up bastards in the ring? they should be enjoying retirement, fishing or hangin' out at strip bars. I felt the same way about Flair, old fucker needs to put some long pants on.
fat bastard with a big mouth..just another used car salesman..

Anyone going to fork over the cash? Watching the WWE Vs ECW now

Not going to get the PPV but I might check out a recap site as I watch the Heat Game.

ECW on SciFi and Howard Stern got his tapes back...Now I have seen it all

Big Show is ECW....
That is as funny as Angle being ECW

the writers suck ass...lol :o

Question for you guys, Whats with all the HHH bashing? People say he's bad for the buisness? How many times did he cleanly put over batista and cena? A few years ago he woudlnt have done that. The guy is taking one for the company and PUTTING OVER younger stars. Whats wrong with that? Or is it just cool to be a "mark" and bash everything the guy does.

I am looking very forward to this ppv as it is the most stacked card since wrestlemania. Angle is good for ecw. he is one if not the top wrestler today.

HHH has not held the belt in well over a year. He has put over batista, Cena, Eugene, Vince mcmahon, the Spirit Squad, Chris benoit and still gets bashed. he also has probably the 2 best theme songs

It's more or less what I hear from the boys. He has to be in every meeting and dictates angles. Vince just lets it happen even if he dose have the final say. This is the main reason Stone Cold has so many issues. HHH was in Stone Cold meeting talking about angles and Stone Cold said he had to leave and shit. The boys don't have any nice things to say about him. He is talented that is true but he don't know shit about the right way to do business regardless if he put over Batista or Cena. See Lion Heart for the 1st three years....

True but I think ECW would have been better with WWE in WWe and bring back a few more names including Stone Cold who went to ECW after WCW jobed him out as you all know...

yo

anyone one have a stream ?

Any interest in me doing a pbp?

Paul can still cut a great promo

ECW PPV: PAUL HEYMAN PROMO
By: PPV Results
6/11/2006 8:09:06 PM

Paul Heyman opened the show with an emotional promo in the middle of the ring. The crowd greeted him with ECW chants and “Thank You Paul” chants. Heyman told the fans, “This didn’t happen because of Paul Heyman…this didn’t happen because of Vince McMahon….this happened because of each and every one of you”.

The Start Of The NEW ECW

Just sent it.

Thanks again dog that shit is cool-need to upgrade this computer...You da man

Damn I'm pissed I'm missing the ppv cause my cable company fucked me over. Anyone have a stream?

I cant get it with my current box... sucks.. if anyone posts a stream it would be appreciated!

Wow, I hope Angle doesn't take that many bumps to his neck or he won't be in ECW for long.

It's neat how something might work if Vince lets it get over, unlike the InVasion angle.

So is the ppv pretty good so far?

I just read where the fans were chanting "Nacho Libre" at Super Crazy! LOL

Wow, the Big Show entrance fell flat at first, but he had some nice spots. The crowd actually was cheering at the end.

Damn fucking cable company

That JBL promo was fucking terrible and out of place. The crowd totally no-sold it. But what was the point of that if it doesn't lead to a beat-down or later interference?

Time for Sabu-Rey Rey. The crowd is booing Rey!

Rey Rey has his old school tights on! Woot

JBL-Michael Cole?

That has the potential to be the worst broadcast tandem in wrestling history!

JBL-Michael Cole?

That has the potential to be the worst broadcast tandem in wrestling history!

Let's not get hyperbolic. We shouldn't forget the horrors of Steve McMichael and Dusty Rhodes.

Stop blowing spots, Sabu.

Let's not get hyperbolic. We shouldn't forget the horrors of Steve McMichael and Dusty Rhodes.

Stop blowing spots, Sabu.

Or Mike Tenay and anybody. Fair enough.

OH MY GOD. TRIPLE JUMP DDT THROUGH A TABLE. THAT HAD TO BREAK REY'S NECK!!!

holy shit!!!!!!!!!!!

chris benoit broke sabu's nek in '94

Uhhh, that match was awesome. But I can't understand that no contest.

It was clear that neither competitor was actually hurt. Weak.

ECW !!
ECW !!
ECW !! :D

I just read where the fans were chanting "Nacho Libre" at Super Crazy! LOL :p :p :p :p

Now THIS is Hardcore. Sick bumps by all 4 men.

Funk is spouting blood.

it's all fake anyway

Oh my Lord. Flaming barbed wire baseball bat to Foley, falling back into a barbed wire table.

Wow. Sweet fucking match. Edge's sexual positions onto Beulah were classic. Great effort by Foley and Funk. I would say that took years off of each of their careers, but that comment doesn't mean anything when you're fighting at age 60.

This really is quite fucked up. Isn't it fucking brilliant. I haven't ever watched ECW.

Simulated rape too. Way to go vince.

Does anyone have a stream?

that match kicked ass

like its old school again

and beulah is still hot :)

ECW PPV: LAWLER VS TAZ
By: PPV Results
6/11/2006 8:13:44 PM

Taz defeated Jerry Lawler

The show opened with Taz vs Jerry Lawler. During his entrance, Lawler stopped at the announce desk and slapped Joey Styles. When Lawler entered the ring he stood face to face with Taz. Joey Styles jumped on Lawler’s back and Lawler threw him to the mat, but was immediately grabbed by Taz and choked out. Taz wins by choke out.

that match kicked ass

like its old school again

and beulah is still hot :)

I was hearing she might make an apperance

One of these I really ought to spring for cable...

It's a different product. There's profanity, vulgarity, and R-rated violence. It really shouldn't be viewed by anyone under the age of 16, I'd say. Leave the family at home.

But there is a demand for it. I find it exciting, entertaining, and innovative. Rape is simulated all of the time in Hollywood, and it's kosher. Why shouldn't wrestling push the envelope? This is centered to a fringe audience. I think minus the JBL promo and lack of Sabu-Rey finish (more disappointing because their match was a 9.5/10 at the time of its closure), this ppv has been AMAZING.

LOL. Eugene is going to get squashed.

By who???
New Jack?


Sandman!

i wanna see the first 8 minutes

$$$ :D

That was a clunky finish to the main event, imo.

The match was pretty damn good, but RVD going up to the balcony and then everyone was waiting like 2-3 minutes for him to come back. I wish they wouldn't have said he was going to make it the ECW Title. I wanted him to do Shane Douglas Part II and dump the title and shoot about being held back, etc.

Does anyone know where I can download the ppv?

now if only they'd combine RAW + SD and make it one brand again, and let heyman/dreamer do most of the ECW stuff we would be looking at 2 good products. but stephanie loves to fuck up a good thing :rolleyes:

Once again ECW delivers the PPV of the year for the 2nd year in a row!!!!! Other than the god awful generic music fot the Sandman a top notch show from start to finish! WWE should just pony up the cash and pay Metallica to use "Enter Sandman"

Enjoyed the card, but that ending was terrible.

I'm an ECW fan, but damn to see everyone out celebrating THAT FINISH and win for RVD was pretty sad.

Let him actually win the thing... but I guess this way Cena can lay claim to never losing while ECW gets their belt.

Stilll, good to see ECW back as an option for watching now. Maybe it'll liven the other shows up too just by being around.

great ppv, and my god edge is the man.

In both sabu/rey and funk/dreamer v foley/edge.. it was a " i dont think that was supposed to happen feeling" probly what they were goin for, but for real sabu, rey and funk both looked wicked fucked up.

cena throwing his shirt into the crowd.the crowd threw it back.

the crowd after cena hit a nice move off the top rope:

you still suck
you still suck

priceless

i thought it was a good ppv from start to finish, wow the fans were fucken brutal on john cena calling him fagot and all you heard was fuck you it was great, i would pay to watch a ecw ppv anytime not like that weak ass smackdown ppv's they suck balls

RATE THE PPV if you had a chance to see it

i agree, shoulda been a clean victory, that would do nothing but help cena.

so is rvd on raw now since he won?

i thought it was a pretty good ppv, i can do without the big show, angle and orton

edge actually did well, that match was fucking ruthless

it's all about ECW, they still need to get some other names back

Kronus not dead - just out of wrestling.

I gave the show a thumbs up, just not as high as last year.

They should add RVD to the VENGEANCE main event and make it a three-way with HHH and Edge.

The finish:

Edge is prepping to spear Cena.

Cena goes after Lita, and Edge winds up spearing RVD.

Cena gives Edge the FU. RVD breaks it up.

Cena gives RVD the FU and gets the pinfall (with Edge and Lita incapacitated).

The following Tuesday, Heyman can come out and say that since it didn't happen in an ECW ring, that they aren't counting it and RVD is still ECW Champion.

Cena would then become a three-time WWE World champion, all prepared to lose the strap to HHH at SummerSlam.

I'd give the PPV a 7, sloppy wrestling. The new ECW Angle looks alot like the old WWE Kurt Angle. Throw a chair under one of those german suplexs. The crowd was great all night they stole the show. Everything went how I expected, Tazz quick & RVD in a fucked up finish.

RATE THE PPV if you had a chance to see it

6 out of 10

Some great moments and some great matches, but too few matches and some bad moments (i.e. Eugene, JBL) dragged it down.

rvd the whole f/n show

rvd the whole f/n show

Thanks for adding that, he really is the whole f/n show huh? I saw the ppv last night and had no idea, how did u come up with that awesome catch phrase? :stupid:

In all seriousness, it was sloppy, but thats what u get with ecw, the ball, tanaka sucked, tazz/lawler was all filler, no point. They were more stiff in the lead up, than the actual match. Rest of show, great. Best ppv in a while, crowd was brutal on cena, but the "you still suck" was funny, cuz they didnt wanna admit he made an alright wrestling move, classic.

Cool-I hate the WWE Mix but I might watch the weekly tv and see what they do. I'm sure I will buy the PPV on Ebay

i hate hhh
