Scroby 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2007 Prelude to a Rumble By Craig Tello Written: January 23, 2007As first reported by WWE Mobile Alerts, the main event for tonight’s ECW on Sci Fi has changed, and Lashley will now face his Rumble opponent Test in a prelude to their championship match this Sunday. Much like Lashley demanded a match against Test at the Royal Rumble, the Impact Player reportedly insisted that this match take place tonight. Though Lashley was originally scheduled to face Hardcore Holly in an Extreme Rules Match tonight, the fighting ECW World Champion accepted Test’s challenge without hesitation. Over the course of the last several weeks, ECW fans have witnessed a more lethal and ravenous side of Test in his quest for ECW gold. Lashley has proven himself to be a fighting champion, but his decision to battle the “Most Ruthless Competitor in ECW” could have tremendous implications on their title match just five days from now. This also leaves the hostile veteran Hardcore Holly without an opponent tonight. The Alabaman Extremist had a rare opportunity against the ECW World Champion until the Impact Player stepped in. How will Holly react to this change of events? What kind of damage will take place tonight on ECW on Sci Fi? Will either of tonight’s combatants make it to the Royal Rumble in one piece? I'm sure the show will be intesting, espically since no one else other than Test/Lashley/and Punk have something going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk 34 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2007 Why the hell have Test/Lashley tonight with it happening on Sunday..? Holly is hurt and in WWE's mind, the champion must be in the main event every week no matter what. Instead of doing something logical like Lashley/RVD Vs Test/Holly (with limited work), they decide to do a "teaser" of the title match for those on the fence.
