Silence 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2008 Why the hell is Colt Cabana still in development? This isn't related to the guy they called up to ECW, since I haven't seen that yet. I've been wondering this for weeks now. He's been in development over a year now so whatever they're teaching him or un-teaching him must be done by now. And surely it can't be that hard to find something for a guy like him to do on a show like ECW that's shorter on numbers. Why is he not on my TV yet? It doesn't even have to be him debuting as Punk's friend like most fantasy booking would dictate. Bring him up as Carlito's cousin. Bring him in as random babyface nice guy. Anything. The sad thing is even if Cabana were called up, he'd end up like Evan Bourne now has in just a few weeks: Jobbing to Mike Knox after three wins and never seen again.

Eh, maybe Bourne will be back next week. Who am I kidding, Cabana will probably be given a few token wins over some of the "lower" ECW wrestlers (Nunzio) then "pinballed" by Knox.

Slickster 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2008 A bit of a historical note: CM Punk is the first man to hold the ECW Championship and the World Heavyweight Championship (post-2001). If you count the WHC and the WCW Championship as the same thing, then he joins The Big Show in that category. Also, Mark Henry is not the first former WWE European Champion to win a World title in WWE/WCW/ECW/NWA/AWA. Others include HHH, HBK, Kurt Angle, Christian Cage, Jeff Jarrett, Chris Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Dallas Page, and RVD. Henry joins Rob Van Dam as being the only two men to win the WWE European Championship and the ECW Championship. Also, the number 3,200 is of significance to the World's Strongest Man. That's the number of days he went without a championship in WWE. He lost the WWE European Championship to D-Lo Brown on September 26, 1999. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Booker T won the World Title at the show, no need for complaining Noble/Kash vs London/Kendrick was a really solid opener too. If anything, the card changes actually improved the show, I would even go as far as saying its the best GAB PPV the WWE ever produced. The Big Show was a step up from Khali, Helms / Hardy had a fantastic impromptu match, and Kennedy got the shit kicked out of him in great fashion. Now if I wonder if that's what they had planned for the main event before Jeff was traded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mystery Eskimo 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2008 Perhaps this has been suggested before, but I'd like to see Ric Flair pass on his Nature Boy title to a young wrestler, after he (kinda) inherited it from Buddy Rogers. It could be a running thing, Flair scouting guys to see whos worthy. Maybe even building to a final two candidates having a match. Or maybe nobody would really care about two guys fighting over a name. But it might give a nice rub to someone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
