The ECW PPV has a name...

Recommended Posts

"As talk continues that WWE plans to put on an ECW PPV on June 12, more information has come out as to what it might be called. On January 18, 2005, WWE got a trademark on the name "ECW ONE NIGHT STAND". That could very well be what they call the show, which is already slated to take place in New York City. WWE has not confirmed yet that they will do the ECW show but sources within the company have told us that they expect it to happen."

November to Remember in June?

...hence the message "If Survivor Series Wasn't That Month"

 

Meaning they should have done it in November.

 

...heck, they could have used Heat Wave, Guilty as Charged, Anarchy Rulz...any of those would have worked better than "One Night Stand" for an ECW PPV.

I'd go with Heatwave or Hardcore Heaven.

He's saying they should have had the PPV in November.

 

N2R was the worst name they used anyways.

 

Yes, worst then Hardcore Heaven or Anarchy Rulz or Heat Wave or WrestlePalooza.

ECW: In Name Only

 

ECW: This Will Suck

 

ECW: We Fucked Up

 

ECW: We're Sorry, but RVD hurt his knee so it's Dreamer-Spike Dudley in the main.

 

ECW: Do Not Order

 

ECW: Have We Fired Paul?

 

ECW: Tazz on Commentary

 

ECW: The night we looked at the line, thought it was a long ways away, and decided that not only were we not going to cross it, but we weren't even going to attempt to get close to it, so there.

 

ECW: Only an hour of Triple-H and Evolution on this show

 

No, seriously, this will be great. You go Vince.

I would have gone with Hardcore Heaven myself since that's the closest PPV ECW had to June.

I have low expectations for the show (not as low as Super Pissed Smark I guess though...), but I actually think this name is pretty good. It fits. And it's about a hundred steps up from Taboo Tuesday.

They shouldn't use a real name because the real name PPVs would give the impression that they're continuing on from ECW.

 

They're not.

 

They're putting on ONE show, for one night. Hence they need a title that'll reflect that, to stop people thinking "WOW, ECW IS BACK1!!1!" And in the circumstances (Taboo Tuesday), it could have been a lot worse than One Night Stand. I like it actually.

Its going to be in New York? You would think they would have it in Philly.

I think the name is pretty much perfect and it sounds like a name ECW would have used in the late 90's if it was fitting. Good work by whoever came up with it.

Maybe Paul's intentions was to see if Vince would be dumb enough to actually do this project, so he suggested it to him.

 

Paul (massaging Vince's feet): And while we're at it, Vince, why don't we put JBL and Big Show in a barbwire match.

Vince (petting Triple H on the head): Hhhmmmm. Sure Paul, that sounds great.

Paul (thinking to himself): :lol: He fell for it. He actually fell for it. I can't believe he's this fucking stupid.

I'm guessing they didn't want to do it in Philly because Viking Hall is, with all due respect, a pretty crappy arena, and it holds around 1500 people (not to mention WWE is realistic about what kind of crowd an ECW show would draw, and most other venues in Philly are too big for ECW). The Hammerstein Ballroom at the Manhattan Center is a very nice building (it was the original home of Raw) and it holds around 2500, I think, not to mention ECW did many popular shows there in their final months; in fact, I remember one of the major New York newspapers (the Daily News or the Post, I'm not sure which) ran it as a front-page story when ECW did their first show there.

If Van Dam isn't going to be able to wrestle by then they should just scrap the whole thing right now. Or at least push it back to when RVD returns. Van Dam is the first guy who comes to mind when you say "ECW" that is on the WWE roster right now.

Alright, let's start guessing what the card will be.

 

My main question: will Vince bring in non-WWE wrestlers on this show? In theory the WWE has enough guys who worked in ECW at some time or another to put on an entire show with their own crew, but it'd just be weird having an ECW show without Jerry Lynn, Sandman, Raven, etc. Plus, who knows if guys like Tommy Dreamer, Lance Storm, Tazz, or Sabu would be physically able to wrestle or not.

how about ECW: We're Not WWES Competition, WE SWEAR (as on the dvd wher Vince basically treats them well, showing he never thought of them as Competition, and since he was bascially bankrolling heyman for a long time, it wasnt)

 

 

One Night Stand is a decent name for an ECW reunion (which it should be treated as, not all smarks get excited like Special Ed OMG ECW IS BACK YAYYYYYYYYYYYYY-ECW IS DEAD AND IT SHOULD STAY THAT WAY)

 

 

honestly how many of you would actually order this ppv?

I wouldnt (although I hardly ever order ppvs so no big shock there lol)

 

 

man that came off kinda mean there, geez Im sorry you guys

 

I LOVE YOU GUYS......................EHHHT SCREW YOU GUYS IM GOING HOME

 

 

 

:cheers:
