strummer

and the Mets lose 6-5. Other than the Yankee meltdown that was the worst loss of the year

and Billy Wagner blows the save after 2 out and no one on. 6-5 Reds

Jose Reyes becomes the 9th Met to hit for the cycle. No no-hitters but 9 cycles in 44 years

According to Meltzer there are no plans to stop the cross promotion angle with WWE and ECW. NBC Universal doesn't think the show can draw without RAW involvement and want the company to shoot angles on Monday that build to Tuesday. Today's Update:

Meltzer says that is was Mike Knox who stopped the Kelly striptease

with that finish I think it guarentees Edge goes over on Sunday

small "E C Dubbya" chant

This match has had by far the most heat on anything in the first 2 shows. "Let's go Angle" chants.

Angle with the biggest pop of the show

big pop for Cena's name

Macho Libre

Todd Worrell against the Mets?

no match, just a "confrontation"

Big Show

Yup RVD got more heat on RAW just now than he did at ECW last week.

Foley promising a bad match at the PPV!!!

Looks like a character change for Eugene

Hunter is trying too hard to be funny and thus is not

Steve Karsay retires. A's fans rejoice.

That was the first time the Yankees blew a 7 run lead and lost since 1997.

Gardenhire seems to have a little Dusty Baker "Young players aren't worth shit" in him. They've signed a lot of retreads in the past couple of seasons. Listening to Willie Randolph's post game press conferences it looks he's been inflicted with it also. Word is the Mets are sending Milledge down for his "immature behavior" so he can "grow up"

Didn't Lagana and Heyman having a major falling out a few years back?

The Ortiz signing is an example of a GM simply looking at a pitcher's win/loss record and not going deeper with peripheral stats. Just lazy management

People need to remember that ECW didn't really have long matches on their shows until 99 when Paul ran out of ideas and changed to a more wrestling centered product. There was lots of talking and angles during the 95-97 glory years
