That's saying he sells at all.... He sure as shit didn't sell that Asai moonsault.

Once again, who was that OVW guy during the "Kelly" segment?

DSW's Mike Knox

Thank you.

This match kinda sucks....
I think it's more the dead crowd than the actual match killing it for me. CHEER YOU BASTARDS!!! DO SOMETHING...STOP SITTING ON YOUR ****ING HANDS!
 
Funny how Tazz talks so much about ECW with no rules and being EXTREME all show, but then gets pissed off about Lita's interference.

It looks like Orton is hurt, dammit.
 
My guess - Rob's only going to drop the WWE belt - he'll keep the ECW belt, meaning that having the WWE belts up for the grabs on ONS wasn't really necessary.
 
Well folks, that was a HUGE improvement over last week.
Overall, I'm pretty pleased with ECW. Aside from that dumb slut killing 5 minutes it was a show crammed with a lot of WRESTLING.

It had more in ring than Raw did.
 
Better, but still not really good. I still felt like I was watching WWE. For starters, they have to tape these shows on their own in small, intimate venues with real fans. These crowds kill the show. Good crowds can make a show. There's no way Randy Orton should walk into an ECW show and not get torn apart by the crowd.

And now I see Test is coming... uhh, yeah. Please.
 
From several weeks back:

Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter

There has been some talk of having Test become a top level heel that feuds with Rob Van Dam.


Aside from C.M Punk and Mike Knox, they are the only developmental wrestlers that WWE has thought about bringing to the new ECW at the moment.

Test turned out to be true, so did Knox....Punk should debut any week now......hopefully
 
Im excited about ECW being back again. WTF were they thinking last week.

ECW this week obliterated last week's performance.

Sadly, I bet the ratings don't reflect that.

How did they do in last weeks ratings?

nah i say test could be decent, hes got the look aside from the hillary duff smile.
 
Orton looked like he badly hurt his wrist or forearm.

Now's WWE's only opportunity to make Orton awesome. Two things: 1) Give him a ****ing cast and have him wear it for years like his dad, or 2) Bring back the RNN.

Test is good for ECW. As someone said, he could definitely fill in the Mike Awesome role.
 
it will be interesting to see how many people gave it a second chance. They may have just saved the show by the strong showing tonight.

The cast idea = :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

That would be great.
 
What happened after ECW went of the air

PWI said:
Rob Van Dam and Kurt Angle continued to celebrate after ECW on Sci Fi went off the air.

Randy Orton was tended to by a doctor at ringside and then walked to the back. I was told that live, it appeared he may have hurt his shoulder, but it's also possible he may have been selling. As soon as we have a clarification, we'll update.

They are doing a post-taping dark match right now with Undertaker vs. Great Khali & Mark Henry.

That was a pretty awesome ending...

The ending definitely felt ECW, at least to me. More of the match should have been that awesome back and forth, and less of the typical "face struggles for a while trying to make the tag" crap.

Please be real. :)

It absolutely was. He was moving really, really slowly when he got tagged out, and you could see him for the entire rest of the match holding his arm close to him not wanting to move it. You'd see him slowly moving his fingers and holding his wrist. If it's not broken, it's ****ed up somehow.

Okay, that shit is not funny at all. I know we have our favorites and people we don't like, but I am not ever wishing injury on any worker. From the curtain jerker to the main eventer, they all sacrifice and have a harder life than most of us on this board so no I won't be wishing any of them to get hurt.



Looks like he shoulder was in pretty bad shape. Hopefully it was only dislocated and needed to be popped back into place. I was impressed he toughed it out and still tried to do his spots.

Seriously, the only person I would ever wish injury on would be....

JOHN CENA.

Plus, Orton just got back. That would really suck.

This might prove Vince's theory right, and we might see less wrestling on ECW next week if he truly is injured.

WE DON'T WANT TO SEE LESS WRESTLING.

I vote for option 1. Wasn't around when it was done with his dad, but it was awesome with Owen Hart. :D
 
RANDY ORTON INJURED DURING ECW ON SCI FI

PWI said:
Randy Orton was injured during the main event of ECW on Sci Fi, although the severity is not yet confirmed.

Orton injured his right arm while working on Kurt Angle's knee. Orton put his leg between his own and drove down to the mat, immediately grabbing his right wrist. When Orton stood up, his arm was lame. Orton spoke to Edge, who he then tagged in with his left arm. When Orton stood at the ring cormer and on the floor, his arm was badly hanging. Orton tagged in again with his left hand and was obviously favoring the right arm. He tagged out again. Van Dam hit the pescado on Orton, then hit him in the back with a chair. They then went to the finish of the match, with RVD pinning Edge.

When the cameras weren't on Orton, it was apparent in the building that Lita was trying to help him. After ECW went off the air, Orton was walked to the back by WWE's medical staff. Orton was then immediately taken via ambulance to a local hospital for examination.

PWInsider.com hopes to have further information as it develops. Orton is scheduled to wrestle Kurt Angle this Sunday at the Vengeance PPV.

THE IDENTITY OF 'MACHO LIBRE'

PWI said:
For those wondering, "Macho Libre" on ECW was former ECW Baldie Tony DeVito.

Fixed. ;)
 
Bloodwake said:
Wow, sucks for him. He just got back, too.


Yeah, it does suck for him. I wonder if he will be able to work at all Sunday. But behind the scenes you know people are going to try to put this on RVD some kind of way and claim, like they have for years, that he is dangerous.


Snaku, your attempts at humor are failing harder than a Chris Masters promo.

Except Mike Awesome was a great worker for ECW. Test was a great (or even decent)worker, never. It's pretty insulting to even compare the two really.
