oAo ECW Thread for 4/17/07

[Scroby]

CM Punk, ECW’s fastest-rising young star, shocked the Land of the Extreme and his legion of fans when he joined the conniving New Breed last week on ECW on Sci Fi. He told WWE.com why he made his decision, but will he have anything to say before the fans in Italy? And what does his acquisition mean to the New Breed’s battle for supremacy in ECW with the Originals? What repercussions await the New Breed and CM Punk this week? Find out as ECW on Sci Fi goes international.

 

Things looked bleak for the Originals as one of their cornerstones, Sabu, appeared to be severely injured after New Breed leader Elijah Burke aggravated a neck injury he suffered at his hands in an Extreme Rules Eight-Man-Tag Team Match. What is the Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal, Death-Defying Maniac’s condition? And with the addition of Punk to the New Breed, will the Originals be forced to seek reinforcements?

 

An exuberant Mr. McMahon boasted last week that he showed ECW World Champion Bobby Lashley – in bloody fashion on Raw – that he would make his life a living hell after he embarrassed him at WrestleMania 23. The Chairman has vowed to take the ECW World Championship when Lashley defends the title in a 3-on-1 Handicap Match against the billionaire, his son Shane and Umaga at Backlash. Will Lashley have a response to the maniacal, bald billionaire?

 

Snitsky showed the Land of the Extreme that no one – not even Extreme Exposé – is safe when he’s around. But Balls Mahoney thwarted the evil intentions the deranged monster had for Exposé’s Layla.

 

Are these two headed for a collision course? Find out Tuesday night at 10/9 CT on ECW on Sci Fi.

 

CM Punk/New Breed angle = Curious fans.

 

So maybe Balls vs Snitsky and Sabu vs Burke? And I'm sure something to do with McMahon

[razazteca]

So basically its going to be like Raw -- start out with Mr. McMahon rant about Bobby Lashley then a few soccer chants from the crowd then CM Punk explains why he joined New Breed add in a spot with guest announcer introducing the strippers Kelly and the two brunettes then finish with RVD/Sabu vs New Breed.

[Thanks for the Fish]

The friggin bookers are going to ruin this angle wih the timing of it all. Punk's big mic explaination will be largely lost in front of an Italian crowd. Why couldn't they have his turn and explaination saved until ECW was in the North East USA?

[razazteca]

Mr. McMahon hates the states of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

[cabbageboy]

Well from reading the SD/ECW results on the other thread it doesn't sound like there's much to worry about on that front.

 

I just really hope they don't do the lame "You don't deserve an explanation!" bullshit.

[razazteca]

Matt Striker is in a suit this week what happened did he get promoted to guidance counselor or VP? I would rather see Matt Striker as the voice of the New Breed I'm not sold on Burke's mic skills yet. Coming to think of it I think he is 3rd behind Striker and Punk out of the members of the New Breed.

[MarvinisaLunatic]

they shouldnt give RVD a mic

[Hawk 34]

Anyone get that feeling of Punk channeling RVD's time with the Alliance?

 

Edit: Punk is totally doing exactly what I exprected him to do as I said in the spoiler thread.

[Downhome]

They're already going to start conflict within The New Breed?

[MarvinisaLunatic]

C M Punk

The C stands for CLEVER

The M stands for MOLE

[razazteca]

C is for Cookie

M is for Monster

[Hawk 34]

Each and every week, Elijah continues to impress me. They had a great core with Burke and Punk for ECW not to mention RVD whom is still quite over. Once Lashley moves over to Raw or SD full-time, ECW will really be rolling.

[razazteca]

They're already going to start conflict within The New Breed?

That's cause Burke isn't the great leader that he thinks he is. The Vampire never talks and the Alpha Male apparently got his balls cut off.

[Downhome]

Ha, now this I love.

 

EDIT:

 

The entrance, not the guy he's facing - meh.

[Hawk 34]

They keep him under contract for this one night a year. Like Funaki when they go to Japan.

[fazzle]

Have Snitsky's nipples always been that low? Have I just never noticed before?

[trackc53]

fucking AWESOME crowd

[randomguy]

Snitsky is one handsome man.

[razazteca]

the only nipples you should be concerned about are diva nipples.

[trackc53]

i'll give credit to whoever's booking this because this should have been over in about 5 seconds..ITALIA

[fazzle]

the only nipples you should be concerned about are diva nipples.

 

Seriously though, look at those things. They're almost at his stomach.

[razazteca]

Gene Snitsky got the Bob Sweeten look going for him maybe if he is lucky he can be in a WWE sci-fi movie.

[Hawk 34]

So, when does Stephanie give up and let Dusty and Lagana run Raw? They made ECW something tremendous and we saw what they did with Smackdown.

[MarvinisaLunatic]

Austin is the new Jackie Chan apparently.

[Mecca]

Raw is better than ECW and Smackdown combined according to WWE management.

[razazteca]

Soccer chants rule.

[trackc53]

that chant while Punk was talking to Striker- are they chanting the instrumental to Seven Nation Army by White Stripes???!!!

[Downhome]

So Santino was born in Italy, moved to Canada to train as a pro wrestler, then came back to Italy to visit his family. All the while, WWE just happened to be in town, and he just happened to go to the show, and he just happened to be in the front row, and he just happened to get picked to wrestle Umaga, and then he just happened to win the IC title.

 

That Santino is one lucky guy.

[Mecca]

Those other OVW guys wish they had learned to speak Italian now.

[razazteca]

So first he was a Russian, now he is Itallian, I bet next month he will be French.
