Guest *KNK* Report post Posted June 9, 2005 Sounds like Heyman and Dreamer are playing nostalgia here for ECW but i meant that in a good way. Quite frankly Tanaka/Awesome is the only way to use Tanaka anyways... So this makes the card Guerrero Vs Benoit Dreamer and Sandman Vs Dudleyz Super Crazy Vs Little Guido Vs Tajiri Psicosis Vs Mysterio Tanaka Vs Awesome anything left out?

Guest *KNK* Report post Posted June 9, 2005 How could I neglect the last match of storm's career? Looking at the remaining names, I'm trying to formulate potential matches and I'm guessing Balls and Axl Vs Doring and Roadkill... Tazz will not work a match but likely choke out Angle during the inevitable ECW Vs THEM showdown. I'm not so assured the others will actually wrestle but merely appear.

Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 He said it. He said he tried to contact them and get them in the show but they couldn't do it for some reason and he thought that was a shame. Shane Douglas, the Franchise wouldn't come because of Heyman, Heyman said he didn't give a shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Team Angle Pusher 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 I lost a lot of respect for Tommy after how he put down Hardcore Homecoming on Byte This. Dreamer is so corporate he either does not realize, or knows and is hiding it to save his ass, that Hardcore Homecoming represents what ECW was about much more than ONS. Hardcore Homecoming is an FU to the big corporate promotion, who is ruining the legacy of ECW by turning it into some invasion crap angle. Fuck you Tommy, you truly are nothing but a sell out bitch. Not because you are in WWE, but because you are putting aside what you preached just to move up the corporate ladder. Go give Mr. Ace another hand job, as I heard you were his right hand man, and I think we all know what that means. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ONS > Hardcore Homecoming. HH doesn't even have the brain of Heyman behind it and he booked the whole fucking thing. He made ECW work, not Shane Douglas. Besides, the main event is something like Funk vs Douglas vs. some other old dude, they can't go extreme anymore, come on. They don't have Tajiri and RVD, they don't have the Dudleys, they don't have Eddie Guerrero versus Benoit japan style, they don't have Jericho versus Storm, One Night Stand will be more then ECW then Hardcore Homecoming. There will be huge surprises and RVD is doing a shoot, believe me, ONS > Hardcore Homecoming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GreatWhiteNope 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 I'd guess Spike Dudley would be going over some large wrestler (Bam Bam?). And I'd think the RAW and Smackdown invaders will be involved in a brawl where the lights will go out a few times and alot of shit happens all over the arena.

Downhome 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 Here is a link to this news: http://www.liveaudiowrestling.com/wo/news/...t.asp?aID=13431 --It was reported in Japan yesterday so we can confirm that Masato Tanaka vs. Mike Awesome will be another match on Sunday's ECW PPV show. That goes along with Chris Jericho vs. Lance Storm, Little Guido vs. Super Crazy vs. Tajiri, Rey Mysterio vs. Psychosis, Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero and the weapons bloodbath and a million cameos and broken tables match with Tommy Dreamer & Sandman vs. The Dudleys.

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 Rhyno against Justin Credible for ECW World Title? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think a title match would depend on what they're planning on doing in the future w/ECW. If it's really a one-and-done, I'd rather them have Dreamer win it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 Even if he comes in and wrestles for 5 mins., by the time the next (potential) ECW PPV rolls around he'll be fully healed. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's exactly right. I think it's almost a sure thing that this wil not be the end of ECW. They might play it up on TV as if that's the case, but I think we just might see the ECW guys start to for factions on RAW and SD. Heck, like someone else here suggested earlier, we might see SD draft only ECW guys leading to SD being the show that is taken over by ECW, so Paul Heyman can "compete" with Bishoff. The fact remains that ECW can make Vince money, and a ton of money if he plays his cards right. This ECW thing is the most over angle in a very long time. When was the last time something was talked about this much (in a positive way)? Just look at how many topics we have talking about ECW in the WWE folder.

Guest *KNK* Report post Posted June 9, 2005 That same "old man" will be @ ONS anyways, so what if ANY value does HH have? That its being held in the delapidated ECW Arena? If that building was big enough and strong enough to support a ppv, they would have hosted the show there. HH is nothing but a desperate attempt by a bitter former star using his hatred for Paul Heyman to put on this farce of a show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dames 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2005 If you were asking me, probably because there will be some people that won't be at ONS that will be at HH, guys like Raven, Douglas (obviously), most likely New Jack now. Plus being at the ECW Arena gives it a more authentic feel as well. I don't see anything wrong with having two tribute shows. Dames Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dames <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's what befuddles me. Aside from Jerry Lynn who i believe is STILL rehabbing a injury(and not even listed on the roster) Douglas who already confirmed he wanted nothing to do with Paul Heyman and Raven, someone that is buried in the mid-card(and doing a suspension angle) are the only connections to ECW. What exactly is TNA worried about? Some workers on the tna roster had a couple appearences on ECW but weren't ever a "part" of ecw such as Daniels, Dusty Rhodes and Konnan(I believe).
