ECW 1.15.08

Recommended Posts

Preview:

Strike two

January 15, 2008

 

Chavo Guerrero had his second chance against ECW Champion CM Punk this week, but Guerrero was not able to earn an opportunity at an ECW Title Match when he was disqualified. As WWE Mobile on AT&T subscribers have already seen, Guerrero challenged Punk to a third match on next week's ECW. Will Guerrero finally get his chance at an opportunity to fight Punk for his ECW Championship, or will it be three strikes, you're out?

 

Also on Tuesday's ECW, World Heavyweight Champion Edge will host a special Cutting Edge. What does the Ultimate Opportunist have in store for those in the Land of the Extreme?

 

Last Tuesday, Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore lost the 15 Minutes of Fame Tag Team Championship Match to The Miz & John Morrison. The WWE Tag Team Champions retain their gold, but is this the last they’ll see of Yang & Moore?

 

Also last week, the rivalry between Kelly Kelly and Layla was interrupted when newcomer Lena Yada entered herself into the Diva Dance Off. Much to the shock of Kelly and Layla, Lena declared herself the winner. What does this 2007 Diva Search contestant have in store for the Divas of ECW?

 

Find out the answers to all of these questions and more on the next ECW on Sci Fi, Tuesday at 10/9 CT. Also, be sure to catch ECW in its entirety every week on WWE.com, available from Wednesday to the following Monday afternoon.

 

Edge-Punk confrontation should be very solid. I expect Punk to piss Edge off, Edge interfers in the Chavo match and gives Chavo that win, setting up Chavo-Punk IV at Rumble and likely a Punk/Mysterio Vs Edge/Chavo match on Smackdown or next week's ECW.

Hey, Punk finally gets some meaningful mic time, that's good news.

 

But I think the real question is, what will Colin Delaney do this week?

 

It's Elijah's turn, isn't it?

Probably Khali or both Big Daddy V and Mark Henry

Is that the Jobber?

No, you're thinking of Chavo. Colin is the pasty white guy who gets squashed at the urging of Tazz.

First a countout, then a disqualification. I get the feeling they're setting up for Extreme Rules, and I loves me some Extreme Rules.

 

Then again, I get the feeling Chavo gets the win on Punk, but beats him down after the match and the decision is reversed, because they've got another week before the Rumble and we can't have Chavo/Punk V at the PPV...can we?

It'd be Punk-Chavo IV, but they could just as well do the final match with the EE rules in place but the problem is with this, Punk doesn't even seem tested by Chavo and EE shouldn't in that regard. Chavo lost the first two matches on his own with Punk outsmarting him to get the count out and Chavo slipping and getting caught like an idiot. Given that Edge likely plays a hand in Chavo getting the title shot, Chavo really looks weak. That's not a big concern. It'd give Punk a singles match at MSG where he'll be hugely over and it'll look good for him to those that aren't regular viewers of ECW. It's not as if Chavo needed to be protected.

 

Hopefully, Benjamin has a strong showing in the Rumble (perhaps as this year's iron-man) and they get rolling on Benjamin-Punk at WM.

So....evidently it's now a RAW/SD/ECW split going on...

 

Highlanders also got new, crappier music. Guess it was supposed to be heel, but it didn't sound that good.

Man, I hope they just let Kofi Kingston do his thing and wrestle... the kid has been incredible by getting over at house shows. Apparently by the time his matches are over, he's getting some great responses for an unknown.

I thought the Highlanders new music sounded kind of badass. I liked their old theme as well. The theme music of The Highlanders is the only interesting thing going for them.

What I got from that video package, was that pretty soon, Colin's gonna hate black people >_>.

 

Man, Elijah and MVP didn't get a shot at him before pasty white Kane. The running gag of Colin adding more tape every week is another nice touch.
