Every Heyman quote I'm posting is coming from an interview
here.

I'm a huge fan of the WWE but I also was/am a huge fan of ECW and I just want an event paying homage to the company to be done right. If you are going to have an ECW event, I expect it to be an ECW style event, I mean it defeats the purpose to make it like an "In Your House" card with hardcore rules which is the direction it seems to be heading.
"It can't just be a nostalgia show. You have to have some current events involved. If it is just a look back with, 'Hey here is this guy five years later,' or, 'Here is Balls and Axl. Remember them.' At least now there is a current storyline going into the show. There is a new rivalry in ECW versus the Crusaders. It's something new, something different, something fresh. It's not going to affect the integrity of the actual matches that are taking place. It's actually a match within itself. You're going to see Rey versus Psychosis. You're going to see Sabu, but we're not going to tell you how you'll see him. It's not going to be affected by the Crusaders. There are other matches on this show that are just as important as the advertised ones. Obviously you know we're going to get it on with these guys. We're going to fight it out, but we're not telling you when or how."
"Old ECW fans can expect to have a real emotional outpouring. I don't mean standing on top of your chair and chanting E-C-W. There is going to be a lot of tears. We're going to move them to tears. Some of the things I want to say and the things Rob Van Dam wants to say, and I know some of the moments that we have planned are complete surprises to even people here at WWE. It's really a cool thing."
I'm sure Eddie vs Benoit would be a great match, but not only have we been there 535 times but I'm sure they will have 583 more matches over the next several months.
"Benoit and Guerrero is a Japanese style match. They're not going have a WWE style match. They're going to implore the style that made them popular in ECW."
Nunzio vs watered down Tajiri vs Super Crazy=ehhh..
"We have the three-way dance match with Guido, Tajiri and Super Crazy which was a style that became popular in ECW and is unique to ECW. It incorporates the cruiserweight style, the lucha style and the Americanized style."
And unless someone goes through a flaming table you can keep the tag match.
"The Dudleyz versus Dreamer and Sandman is a weapons style match with the chairs, the barbed wire and all the insanity involved."
