The OaO ECW thread for October 16 2007.

CM Punk & a mystery partner Vs John Morrison, Big Daddy Mabel And The Miz.

 

That's from the preview for tonight, anyway.

 

It's good to see Morrison back, him and Punk do some good magic.

Partner = Balls?

[DrVenkman PhD 0]

Probably Jericho or Colt Cabana.

[Dobbs 3K 0]

Probably Jericho or Colt Cabana.

 

Yeah, or not.

 

I would guess Balls Mahoney.

[Aero 0]

Obviously, no way they'd waste Jericho on ECW. And Balls doesn't strike me as someone worth hyping as a mystery partner. It could be someone new debuting in ECW...

 

That said, it'll probably be Balls or Dreamer.

[DrVenkman PhD 0]

In case it's lost in internet translation, my prediction was not serious.

 

If it were Balls or Dreamer, you'd think they'd just say so, but "mystery partner" adds intrigue. Rule of thumb though, anyone worth advertising as a major name would usually be advertised as such, not a question mark.

[Insanity 0]

It will be the Boogeyman, and noone will give a fuck.

[DrVenkman PhD 0]

Good call.

So, How long do you think Punk holds on to the title?

[Dobbs 3K 0]

I think pretty much whenever ECW has had a "mystery man" it ends up being someone on the active roster. It would be nice if they'd freshen things up and bring in a new face or two.

 

You know who'd be good? Harry Smith, even if they just have him in ECW for a little bit before getting traded to RAW or something.

Choices are:

 

Likely:

 

Boogeyman

Balls Mahoney

Tommy Dreamer

 

Unlikely:

 

Stevie Richards

Nunzio

 

No Chance:

 

Mike Knox

Matt Striker

Kevin Thorn

Elijah Burke

Kelly Kelly

Brooke

 

It seems Balls will probably have his own little thing with Miz so he might be, or may be added for a six-man/interfere.

 

Looks like someone debuting in ECW.

 

My money is on Paul Birchill.

[TheFranchise 0]

WWE.com has learned that several meetings have taken place between Acting SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero and ECW General Manager Armando Estrada that, if ratified, would allow SmackDown and ECW Superstars to compete on Tuesday and Friday nights.

I guess that throws the whole field wide open.

How about Idol Stevens?

 

EDIT: Translation of the last post: Our rosters are rail thin and as such, we're ending one of the brand splits.

Heh, I guess it was a matter of time, and it makes sense since they're usually taped on the same schedule anyway. Guess we can get ready to see CM Punk on Friday nights now.

According to Rajah.com the mystery partner is supposed to be

the newly-traded-to-ECW: Kane

 

Also, anyone else think this whole "open-door" thing is WWE's way of eventually killing-off ECW to permanently merge it with Smackdown?

[TheFranchise 0]

Kane and CM Punk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What an odd tag team.

[Nate 0]

my money is on Balls and Dreamer, and my guess is we'll get a debut or 2 tonight

[bob_barron 0]

It will be the Boogeyman, and noone will give a fuck.

 

Leave noone out of this. Why would he care about the Boogeyman?

[edgehead69 0]

My Money WAS on Batista

[RepoMan 0]

Thread bump to start the show.

[HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0]

Morrison is bigger than Oasis.

[RepoMan 0]

Punk shoots on the Miz.

[Black Lushus 0]

he's shootin brother!

[RepoMan 0]

That is a rather odd choice

[HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0]

Wasn't really a shoot as it was just Punk insulting him.

[Hawk 34 0]

That is a rather odd choice

 

Well, he had to combat the size of BDV. Kane was the logical choice.

 

Also, that's not a shoot. A shoot would have been saying everyone hates Striker for being a moron.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Punk/Kane.

 

...and I thought the Punk/Boogeyman team from a few months ago was strange.

[RepoMan 0]

Wasn't really a shoot as it was just Punk insulting him.

 

I know, I guess I failed in my attempt at humor.

 

[Black Lushus 0]

i dont think anyone was being serious with the "shoot" comment, bros.

[Exslade ZX 0]

That, at least from that one side camera angle, is an extremely blue mat.

[RepoMan 0]

Kane's going to come out of this looking more important than the entire ECW uppercard.
