Slickster

1. I believe Blue Blazer was booked to win the match and the title. 2. Six times (the most ever). 3. ? 4. Aside from the obvious blowoff at Survivor Series, I don't know.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VlpWOHt5eg&mode=user&search= Here's a forgotten one...Tommy Dreamer vs. D-Von Dudley from the February 24, 1997 edition of RAW. The backstory is that most of the WWE roster was overseas, so ECW got several matches/segments to showcase themselves and to plug the upcoming Barely Legal PPV.

So the obvious feud is Big Show vs. Tommy Dreamer for the next few weeks. Heyman's heel turn actually makes perfect sense considering he's been telling Rob for WEEKS not to defend the title so damn much. In kayfabe, he'd rather have an ECW Champion that won't risk injury every week. The fact that it's his old protege Big Show is the icing on the cake. Quite frankly, I think this is the best thing to happen to ECW since its rebirth. RVD gets to recharge, gets a megapush as a plucky babyface upon his return, and ECW actually has an intra-ECW storyline (Big Show as heel champ ruining people) that provides opportunities for the directionless guys (Dreamer, Sandman, etc.)

Has there been a single 'ECW' chant tonight?

So, yeah, ECW needs its own taping ASAP. I think the hot crowd tonight proves it.

Hey, RVD's slap gave Big Show a black eye! Or not...

ECW = Episode Cloned Weekly

I like how no one recognizes DeVito.

Hey look, it's RTC v.2

I think this is a good way to establish the RVD character as a plucky face, irrespective of whether the belt changes hands tonight or not.

Hell of a finisher for Knox(x).

YOU CAN'T WRESTLE!

Oh, SciFi is gonna LOOOVE these chants...

RVD, Kurt, and Big Show each have 2/3 of the titles and they're all on the ECW roster.

Off-topic, but has anyone posted the SD! spoilers from tonight's tapings?

Assuming RVD will get suspended, I'd run an Edge-RVD rematch tomorrow night and have RVD get 'injured' by Edge, allowing him to take the time off without losing even more heat.

The 1,730-day drought is over: the WWE Title changes hands on RAW for the first time since October 5, 2001.

TWO TIMES!

Boxing intros up next.

Gee, talk about hotshotting this angle.

Forced perspective is the friend of all amateur filmmakers.

I think the Diva Search should be blended with Tough Enough so we get to judge the entrants on their wrestling ability. It's already been established they are all attractive women, so why not judge them on what they will be doing?

So yeah, they're hotshotting ANOTHER belt at a Philly supershow this year?

They'll be fined and maybe issue public apologies, but other than that you can't do anything to them without screwing up 2/3 of your company's storylines.
