Mecca 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 PWI is reporting that ECW One Night Stand has been moved from NYC to Jacksonville FL. Date is now June 3. complete bullshit If the "old" ECW fans didn't shit on everything from day 1 maybe they wouldn't have done this. If the new ECW didn't suck from day 1, maybe they wouldn't have done this. There's also 0 point in having a show where you know the fans will shit on everything that even has an inkling of WWE in it. You do more harm than good to your product when you have to book a show for the live crowd that isn't even big to begin with...... All I'm saying is when you wanna be renegade fans and shit on everything, don't bitch when they make a business decision to not run there anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enigma 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 We don't shit on everything just to shit on it. If I remember, that crowd was red hot for Tommy Dreamer & Sandman vs. Test & Mike Knox. But Batista vs. Big Show was not something those fans came to see and if WWE wasn't smart enough to know that, they had no business digging ECW out of the grave. I had a friend of mine who only watches wrestling here and there. He was at my place for One Night Stand 2006 and totally fucking loved it, as did I. He demanded to be over for the first TV show two days later, and he said, "What the fuck? This is nothing like what they did the other day" and never showed any drop of interest in seeing it again. The insight of a non-fan can speak wonders. Face it, the Sci-Fi show was shit from day 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dandy 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 Wow, if WWE goes worldwide like that, they really need to pursue locking in WWE 24/7 as a cable company. They could air all the different territories' shows, have original programming for each territory, continue the current shows that are popular on 24/7, etc. Also, I think it would make Wrestlemania a huge event with all the crossover match-ups you could have. It sounds like a longshot, but I believe it would still turn a profit. All they would need is some key defections from Japan and Mexico. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 Why didn't you make a new thread for that? It's a possible radical change in the structure of the WWE, and could possibly be a titanic blunder, so I would think it'd be important enough to warrant its own thread.

Cheex Incarnate 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 If ONS was to be held at Hammerstein again, it would make perfect sense to have Batista take on an original. After his eventual heel turn, Batista can bring up being booed mercilessly last time he was there despite being the babyface world champion. someone like Dreamer or Sandman would fit the bill -cheex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest pith Report post Posted March 2, 2007 probably and kahli said to johnathon coachman that he wanted more competiton after winning a handicap match against the highlanders. so im guessing kahli because the MITB is more competiton but like everybody else he has to beat his opponent in order to get there. that would be kinda cool if this actually happens (meaning that storyline) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just call me Dan 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 It is quite obvious that Khali/Kane is slated for Wrestlemania. Orton will be the last pick, he will beat Carlito for it to play up to the Flair/Carlito angle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Date is now June 3. complete bullshit If the "old" ECW fans didn't shit on everything from day 1 maybe they wouldn't have done this. The fans are not members of the booking team. But they are very loud and very vocal and if you don't think those who are watching won't hear them and follow in toe to what they're chanting or doing, your mistaken.

Mecca 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2007 Anyone who's interested on some Mistico stuff.... - Mistico worked Dean Malekno in his try out match for the WWE agents on Tuesday night in San Jose, CA, prior to the ECW/Smackdown tapings. According to reliable sources, agents were impressed with his work. According To PWInsider.com mistico really impressed alot of wwe agents before he came in he was labeled as a lucha wrestler but he pulled out lots of submission moves and some American in ring psychology and PWI is reporting his chances of getting signed are higher than most people. Sounds to me like Mistico had been preparing for this well before WWE ever called......looks like he wants to come to the states to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dandy 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2007 pith reminded me that I went into a wrestling chat for shits and giggles the other day and met the world's biggest Cena fan. She figured that Trump was going to pick Cena as his wrestler, even though Cena was defending his title against HBK. She liked all the good guys and hated all the bad guys. I asked who her favorite wrestler of all time was, and she said Stone Cold. She hates Shelton Benjamin because he acts like he is too good. I then told her that I was going to debut for the WWE last year as Shelton's cousin, but I blew my knee out in the tryout matches. She said she remembered seeing that match on Raw. I told her I didn't think it ever aired, but she was convinced she saw that match on Raw or somewhere on Raw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Open the Muggy Gate 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2007 Kafaybe wise, you'd think one of them would pick Cena or Michaels for their recent run.
