keith6601 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2006 Have RVD "relive" the original birth of ECW, with Douglas throwing down the NWA title and renaming Eastern to Extreme. They go with the no ref or whatever reason for taking the belt from him, RVD then cuts a promo handing back the title saying he beat a WWE guy for the WWE belt and that while he would have loved it a couple months ago, it isn't what he wants now. He wants to be ECW champion by beating ECW wrestlers, setting up a tournament for the title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2006 The problem I forsee happening though is RVD has to job the title out before he becomes the ECW Champ. I am sure the result of the 3-way at Vengeance will be Cena pinning Edge, and then RVD/Heyman upset that he never got pinned, and then probably say, "In ECW, we have three way dances not triple threat matches" and he will declare that since RVD wasn't pinned he is still the champ........The ECW Champion" Now that is all good and fine, but it still looks bad for RVD to job the title AND THEN go to ECW, because it makes it seem like he wasn't good enough for WWE so he is running off to ECW. I'd take my scenario of the triple threat match tonight, with a double pin, and a double belt awarding over the current plan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2006 I don't have any problem with ECW simply branching off and recognizing RVD as champ. Let's face it, that's how a lot of promotions are started. The AWA was started when Verne Gagne broke off and declared himself world champion. The WWWF was started when Vince Sr. and Co. didn't recognize a Thesz/Rogers title change and kept the belt on Buddy Rogers (very shortly since Sammartino beat him soon after). Hell, ECW as the "Extreme" promotion was started by Shane Douglas throwing down the NWA belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hell, ECW as the "Extreme" promotion was started by Shane Douglas throwing down the NWA belt. You are absolutely correct, and lets not forget when the brand split happened, Triple H basically was handed a belt and just declared the champ of Raw. Everyone predicted doom, and a couple of years later the Raw belt means 100x more then the Smackdown belt in the fans' eyes. I don't see why RVD's win last night just can't be validated, and he is awarded with being declared the ECW champ, he can come out on the ECW show and declare that he wrestles for ECW now and not WWE Raw, therefore he is now hereby the ECW Champ, and he gets the belt ceremony on Tuesday night, and then someone runs in and attacks him setting up his first feud. It's not perfect, but it is certainly better then keeping him on WWE TV for another two weeks just to do a job at a PPV and then sent on his way like a loser.

Guest StylesMark Report post Posted June 13, 2006 Good god, get this title off RVD, ASAP. Tonight, fer christsakes. They're out of the bingo-hall...RVD can be a jobber again now. With that said, I'm no Cena fan either, so put it on Edge or Triple H. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Open the Muggy Gate 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2006 As much as I like them, I hate how the Spirit Squad have taken the "tonight, you're gonna face all five members of the Spirit Squad" role for the top babyfaces McMahon hates, not unlike Bischoff and Kane.

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2006 Yeah, I'm totally not looking forward to that match. Triple H should just beat the crap out of all five of them backstage with his sledgehammer before the match even takes place. Or, maybe have him take them out one at a time throughout the night, leaving it to be Triple H vs Kenny or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe he was one of the final 4 in the Rumble, he won a heavily-hyped WrestleMania match, won the Intercontinental Title on PPV clean, and just main evented the 2nd most anticipated show of the year. You lack any form of a brain. Triple H has no programs outside of the McMahons and Spirit Squad right now, who are the farthest thing from credible challengers.

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2006 I thought the Frat Boys Vs. Shawn Michaels beatdown was very well done, and the Squad's attack on his knee was executed well. I don't care what H's legacy is, no man can defeat 5 men or hold his own. Anything less than a Triple H hot start and beatdown (if a face doesn't save Triple H) would be silly.

Guest StylesMark Report post Posted June 13, 2006 Hammerstein Ballroom is a glorified Bingo Hall. Been there...trust me. If the ECW fans really wanted to be "edgey"...they would have BOOED RVD's usual shit (same thing thing he's been doing for 10 years around there) and cheered Cena, who carried the match. Ooh, RVD won the IC title clean. HOW impressive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2006 What I would like to see happen: RVD stripped of the belt and held up for Edge/Cena at the PPV and it ending in some fashion so that there still isn't a champion at the end of the PPV (bad finish for a PPV title match, but..just keep reading) Rematch at GAB ordered due to the lousy finish between Sabu and Rey with Sabu winning that belt. The disputed title is then put up for grabs in a tournament at Summerslam between RAW and Smackdown. Batista/Booker T/Rey Mysterio/Mark Henry from Smackdown and HHH/Orton/Edge/Cena from RAW. That would allow for 7 matches..throw in a Women's Title match, Cruiserweight Title match and maybe one other match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
