Joey Styles welcomes us to ECW as he intros the first match of the night.
John Morrison’s music hits as he comes out to the ring to a chorus of boos from the crowd. The camera does his slow-motion poise and John continues to the ring.
Gregory Helm’s music plays through the speakers as he makes his way to the ring. He is walking down to the ring and notices that Shannon Moore, Jay Lethal, Chris Sabin and Alex Shelly are sitting in the front row. Lethal and the Guns are holding up a big sign that says “We Want a Job.†Helms walks by Moore and puts up the three fingers and then walks into the ring.
Both men start the match slowly circling the ring, summing each other up as they circle the ring and they then slowly circle closer into the ring and they eventually meet up in the centre of the ring and look ready to grapple up but Morrison then swiftly moves to the back of Helms and wraps his arms around both legs of Helms and pulls backwards to take out Helms’ legs. Helms gets up and looks half-embarrassed after being taken down in that manner and Morrison just laughs it off which makes Helms even more infuriated and he charges towards Morrison and slides between his legs to get behind him and tries to do the same move Morrison done to him but Morrison smartly grabs the ropes to stay on his feet. Helms then gets up and is getting even more angry and he slaps Morrison and Morrison seems calm but he then suddenly shoves Helms and Helms comes straight back but walks straight into a roundhouse kick that instantly sends Helms onto all fours. Morrison then kicks him strongly in the gut while he’s on all fours and is heard saying "That’s what you get, bitch" and Helms then gets up but before he’s fully up, Morrison kicks him in the chops while he’s slightly bent over and Morrison then drives a series of swift kicks to the calf area of Helms and then hits a low dropkick to the legs of Helms, sending him face-first onto the mat. Morrison then quickly moves to the legs of Helms while he’s down and tries to lock in a Half-Crab on him but Helms uses both legs to shove Morrison away into the ropes and as Morrison comes back off the rope Helms quickly gets up and hits Morrison with a monkey flip. Helms then gets up and looks like he’s found some inner confidence and he climbs up onto the second rope and as Morrison gets back up Helms jumps off the second rope and hits Morrison with a diving tornado DDT driving him head-first into the mat. Helms then hits Morrison with a senton back-splash and Helms looks more confident than ever as he runs across to the top rope and waits for Morrison to get back up and as Morrison gets up Helms goes for a missile dropkick but Morrison ducks down onto all fours to dodge the missile dropkick and Helms takes and awkward landing and Morrison quickly decides to roll him over and pin him. 1… 2… Morrison decides to break up the pin himself by lifting Helms’ shoulder off the mat.
Morrison pulls Helms to his feet and tosses him over the top rope but Helms manages to only reach the apron and Morrison then swings a punch towards him but Helms ducks and shoulders Morrison in the gut through the middle rope and Helms then attempts a suplex on Morrison over the top rope but can’t lift him and Morrison then counters into his own suplex, sending Helms back into the ring. Morrison then runs to the ropes and goes for a lionsault of his own but Helms moves out the way and Morrison manages to switch gears to land on his feet and as Helms gets up, Morrison goes for a step-up enziguiri but Helms ducks and Morrison manages to land on his feet but Helms still has ahold of Morrison’s foot and then looks around at Shannon Moore as a form of guidance but Morrison then does a forward roll sending Helms shoulder first into the ring post. Helms then comes out of the corner bent over, clutching his shoulder in pain and Morrison sees the opportunity and he runs towards Helms and grabs his head and swings Helms around so he’s facing the centre of the ring and Morrison hesitates a few seconds before hitting his corkscrew neckbreaker! Morrison then hooks Helms’ leg for the pin. 1… 2… 3!

Backstage we see Josh Mathews interviewing Jeff Hardy.
Josh: Jeff, Last week it looked like you had the match against Christopher Dainels in hand before a red substance fell onto you, distracting you and allowing The Fallen Angel to hit the Angel’s Wings on you through a table for the win.
Jeff: Josh, that wasn’t just any red substance that fell on me last week. That was Mr. Kennedy and he had blood fall on me. See, Kennedy I am not Carrie and this is not the movies, man. If you want to play with blood then next week it’s me and you in a First Blood match.

A video shows with Bret Hart and he is with Jack Evans and Teddy Hart. A dark figure is shown running up steps and then Bret starts to talk. The camera then shows the figure and it is Shelton Benjamin. Benjamin is sweating heavily and we hear Hart’s voice.
Hart: So while Shelton is in training, I am going to address some issues that have been going on as of late. First, Vince you want to make Randy Orton my opponent at WrestleMania. Well that is fine because I am one legend that will not be killed. Orton, that RKO that you gave me a couple of weeks ago, I was just going to let it go as you being a cocky young gun trying to make a name for himself but now that you want to mock the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be then you are going to feel the power of the Excellence of Execution when I lock in the Sharpshooter on your ass at WrestleMania. Next thing on my list.
Bret looks up at Benjamin and tells him to do 20 laps at full speed.
Bret: Next Jack, I got you in a match for a shoot in the MITB qualifying match with Bobby Lashley next week. I know that this is tough but it will make you a better man. Trust me Jack.
Teddy: Hey Unc, I want a match with Orton next week. Please let me get a shot to get revenge on him and that damn WWE.
Bret: Well that is up to Heyman, McMahon, and Orton. So get the clearance from them and I don’t care.

Edge is in Paul Heyman’s office with The Majors and Mr. Kennedy.
Edge: Heyman, the Higher Power is not happy and when he is not happy things will not be good with you. He want those Benedict Arnolds, Kofi, Burke, and Carlito off of his show now.
Heyman: Excuse me but did you just say that this was his show. See Edge this is ECW. My baby, my obsession, my drug. And if anyone owns this show than it is the fans. But since I speak for the fans, I am going to tell you this. Next week your boys the Majors will be putting their Tag Titles on the line against Carlito and Kofi Kingston.
Kennedy: So since you want to make matches. What the hell is this bullshit about a First Blood match between me and Hardy next week. That is not happening.
Heyman: So, Kennedy it’s not happening. Well if it doesn’t then you will be fired on the spot. Now if that is everything, I have some things to do. So get the hell out.
Edge leaves with his croonies with a pissed off look on his face.
Gregory Helms runs into Heyman’s office and starts to speak to Paul.
Helms: I want all of those wrestlers hired right now Paul.
Heyman: What the hell is up with wrestlers telling me what the hell to do. Gregory, I have been doing some scouting and I have came to a conclusion about what to do with those certain wrestlers. Two weeks from now there will be a one night “Fight for the Right†tournament with the winner receiving a ECW contract.
Helms: Thank you so much Paul.

BM: Joe/Punk or Rey/AJ, the others were great too, I just added Rey/AJ because you brought out the best in their high-flying capability without turning it into a spot-fest
WM: N/A
BP: The Harts
WP: The Jeff promo and the Heyman's office promo, I thought the whole Heyman one was a bit of a cluster but I gotta admit both done the job.
Add. Comments: Raven's back in ECW!! All the matches were phenomenal but I wasn't a fan of your promo's. I have an idea what the "3" thing is with Helms too but I won't reveal it for those of you who don't know. Nice show!

Wrestlemania Reversal Night
Triple H and The Undertaker have been trading their best blows going into Wrestlemania 24, but how will they do against past Wrestlemania opponents of each other one? Randy Orton is focused on Bret Hart, but for this show he will have to play The Game. The Undertaker defeated Randy Orton at Wrestlemania 21, but with a score to settle with The Game, will Randy Orton defeat Triple H?
The Undertaker on the other hand will battle Booker T, who faced The Game at Wrestlemania 19. Will Booker T pull a shocker, or will The Deadman continue his momentum entering his WWE Title Match at Wrestlemania 24?
Teddy Hart challenged Randy Orton to a match at ECW. Will the Legend Killer accept? And what do Mcmahon and Eric Bischoff have to say about this?
Goldberg has been showing his domination over WWE lately, specially over the Intercontinental Champion Finlay. This week, Goldberg, who is anxious for champioship gold, will face Finlay for the title. Will he claim the belt? And what role do Batista, another dominant figure counterpart to Goldberg, play?
Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair and John Cena have been related in many ways over the course of the last couple months, and what once was a friendly relationship, exploded completely last week, when thanks to HBK, Flair entered the MITB over Cena. However, at Wrestlemania, HBK and John Cena will battle one on one. Who will be delivering the next message on this feud this week?
Stone Cold and RVD have been forced to team and trust each other going into their tag team match against The Mcmahons at Wrestlemania. Their tag team standard has been tested by fire by facing the WWE Champion and the contender last week, but this week they will battle The World Tag Team Champions. Will Austin and Van Dam keep their momentum, or will The Dudleyz fulfill their job as hired guns?
What does The Big Show has to say about the two Showstoppers he delivered to both RVD and Stone Cold last week. Will he confirm that indeed he is on The Mcmahon's side? And how will that play out at Wrestlemania 24 with the match being a Hardcore Match, with no rules whatsoever?
Umaga was granted, thanks to his service to Vince Mcmahon, a MITB Qualifying Match, but will he be able to use it to the full advantage, as he battles the returning Kane?
Brock Lesnar managed to qualify to the MITB match. What does the near future has for him? And does that future is finally indeed free of The Rock?
Kurt Angle showed his dominance at ECW when he stick to his word and made MVP tap. What will the Olympic Gold Medalist has to say about his accomplishment?

JR: Ladies and Gentleman welcome to a brand new show brought by the WWE as we are 3 weeks away from Wrestlemania.
King: And tonight is Wrestlemania Rewind, Taker must face a past Triple H Wrestlemania opponent and vice versa, oh god I can’t wait.
JR: Well then, let’s get this show moving. And just for starters, we have ourselves a Intercontinental Title Match.
“Lambeg†plays as Finlay makes his way out, wearing the IC Title around his waist, and carrying his shillelagh. He enters the ring.
“Goldberg’s March†plays to a big pop as Goldberg makes his way out from the locker room to the ring. He jogs around. The referee lifts the title and rings the bell then.
Intercontinental Championship Match
Finlay (c) vs Goldberg
As soon as the referee rings the bell, Goldberg shows how focused and intense he is for the match and he dashes toward Finlay, planting him with a clothesline. Finlay gets back to his feet and gets almost immediately planted by a second and even more powerful clothesline. The Intercontinental Champion gets up for the third time, Goldberg quickly measures him and in a rapid movement he plants him with a sidekick right to the jaw of the irish fighter. Goldberg makes the cover: 1…2…, Finlay kicks out. Goldberg, almost unaffected by his failed pinfall, gets back to his feet and grabbing Finlay by the head he gets him up as well. He sets him and then connects him with a Suplex. However, Goldberg doesn’t release it after nailing it, instead gets back to his feet and connects another one, one more time he doesn’t let the Intercontinental Champion go, and connects him with the second suplex. The routine repeats again as Goldberg reincorporates and goes for the third suplex, but this time walking close to the ropes and letting Finlay fell gut first to the top rope instead. Goldberg screams taunting to the crowd and goes to the opposite ropes and side of the ring taunting to his opponent. The Irish gets back to his feet and turns around, Goldberg runs toward him and looks for a clothesline, however the Intercontinental Champion gets out of the way avoiding the maneuver, Goldberg turns around and Finlay plants him with a chop to the chest, he then goes practically crazy landing wildly chops to the chest of Goldberg, even then mixing them up with straight right hands to the head of his opponent, however Goldberg manages to answer back and with one single uppercut knife-like straight to the jaw change the tide of the match.
Goldberg then grabs Finlay and he Irish Whips him toward the ropes. Finlay clashes with them spine first hard against the turnbuckle, then staggers walking right into a back body drop. Goldberg once again taunts to the crowd receiving a huge pop from the audience. He then walks toward the corner and climbs to the second rope, where he taunts the Intercontinental Champion waiting for him to get back to his feet. Finlay finally recovers his standing position and turns around, Goldberg immediately leaps out of the second rope looking for a flying clothesline, however Finlay is able to attack first and avoid that move as he puts his knee on the way of the flying Goldberg, making him land gut first with it and hurt himself. Finlay then plants his rival with a series of clubs right to the middle section and then leg sweeps him down the canvas. Finlay stands on top of Goldberg measuring him and then lets himself fell behind first sitting on the chest and sternum of Goldberg. The crowd boos the Intercontinental Champion. Finlay stands on top of the floored Goldberg once again going to repeat the same punishment. He takes his time taunting at the crowd and messing with them. He finally goes to make the move but before he is able to Goldberg pushes him toward the ropes. Finlay bounces back and gets lifted over Goldberg’s shoulders and connected by a Running Powerslam. Goldberg gets back up feeling the momentum again on his side. He waits for Finlay to get back up but after seeing he isn’t doing so in a high speed, he goes toward him and goes to “help†him, grabbing him by the head, however Finlay counters and reacts first, throwing his opponent toward the ropes. Goldberg lands on the bottom rope throat first. Finlay kicks him then right to the side of the ribs. Finlay measures Goldberg waiting for him to get back up. Goldberg starts doing so and Finlay dashes to the ropes behind him.
The Intercontinental Champion bounces back only to get grabbed by the throat. Goldberg then gets him over his shoulders and Military Presses him, walking around the ring, before finally exploding and hitting a Front Powerslam/Spinebuster variation. Goldberg taunts to the crowd and goes the corner. Finlay takes his time but eventually gets back to his feet, he then turns around and Goldberg immediately goes toward him looking for the spear, however Finlay sidesteps getting out of the way and avoiding the spear, Goldberg continues his run and he instead Spears the referee, that was behind Finlay. Goldberg gets back to his feet looking down partially in shock to the knocked referee. Goldberg then turns around and finds Finlay on his face, trying to plant him with the shillelagh, however he is able to block grabbing the arm of his opponent. He then grabs him by the throat and hits Finlay with a variation of powerslam. Goldberg lifts his arms taunting to the crowd, he then turns around only to get planted out of nowhere by a Spear by Batista.
JR: What is Batista doing here?
Batista then picks Goldberg back to his feet and plants him with a Standing Spinebuster. Batista taunts to the crowd getting a mixed reaction. He gets Goldberg back to his feet and plants him with a second Standing Spinebuster. The Animal grins and gets Goldberg again back to his feet, and nails him with a third Spinebuster. Finlay crawls toward his challenger covering him, the referee gets back to his senses and makes the count: 1…2…3.
Result: Finlay retains against Goldberg
JR: I can’t believe this, why on Earth would Batista cost Goldberg the IC title?
King: Well, both men have been fighting over who is the most dominant, and I guess this was Batista’s way of saying he is of sending a message to Goldberg.
We go backstage and we see a limo arrive, then from it Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair get out.
HBK: So Naitch, are you ready for tonight?
Flair: Ready? Wooo! I am always ready!
HBK: That’s good, because I have been thinking and, you have to watch your back tonight, I mean, you never know when John Cena can hide and, bam, attack you from behind.
Flair: Watch my back? Do you know who you are talking to? Wooo! If Cena wants to come and attack me, he’s more than invited to try and knock out Space Mountain, Woo!
HBK: That’s what I thought.
HBK and Ric Flair walk away and into the backstage area.
(Commercial)
We return and we see Stone Cold in his locker room lacing his boots, when out of nowhere, RVD enters the locker room.
Austin: What are you doing here?
RVD: I was just passing by and checking if you were ready as our match is next.
Austin: Damn right I am ready, I am ready to go out there, kick some Dudley ass and then drink some damn beer.
Crowd pops on the back.
RVD: Yeah I know but…
Austin: No, you don’t know a thing. See Rob, we are not buddy-buddy, we are partners because we were both being screwed by Mcmahon, but after Wrestlemania, we are done, finished. And tonight, just let me do the work and get out of my way.
RVD: Well Austin, at Wrestlemania, we are in a Hardcore Match, and environment I feel oh so comfortable, so you better get of my way.
Van Dam walks way leaving Austin alone. Stone Cold then weirdly grins.
King: Oh my lord JR, Austin and Van Dam imploding already, and their match is next!
“Bombshell†plays as D-von and Bubbah Ray make their way out carrying their Tag Team Titles, they lift them up high and taunt to the crowd.
“One of a Kind†breaks to a big pop as RVD makes his way out. He salutes some fans and then enters the ring going to one corner.
Glass breaks and to a massive ovation, Stone Cold makes his way out. He makes his classic entrance climbing to all corners and then gets down. The referee rings the bell.
The Dudley Boyz vs Stone Cold and Rob Van Dam
Buh Buh Ray and D-Von Dudley have a quick chat and they set Buh Buh Ray to start the match. Stone Cold and Rob Van Dam have a longer argument on who to start the match. Finally Van Dam sends Austin to the apron and he starts the match. RVD and Buh Buh circle each other. Ray goes toward RVD first and goes for a clothesline, however Van Dam ducks. Buh Buh Ray then turns around and RVD starts unloading straight right hands right to the jaw. He then grabs the arm and goes to throw him toward the ropes, however Buh Buh Ray Dudley counters as he instead throws his opponent toward the ropes. Rob Van Dam bounces back from the ring ropes and instead he is the one to react and attack first as he nails Buh Buh Ray with a crossbody. He makes the cover: 1…, Ray gets one shoulder up. Van Dam gets back to his feet and he grabs his opponent by the head, then brings him up with him. He weakens him with straight right hands right to the head. He then grabs his opponent and sets him for a suplex, he goes for it however Buh Buh Ray Dudley blocks the attempt of Van Dam. He then counters and instead of the suplex from Rob Van Dam, what gets nailed is a Facebuster from Buh Buh Ray Dudley. The Tag Team Champion gets back to his feet and grabbing his rival by the ponytail, gets Rob back to a standing position. He then grabs him by the arm and throws him with power toward the corner, crashing Rob’s spine hard against the turnbuckle. Buh Buh Ray then follows him walking toward him and chops him right to the chest, getting the classic “Wooo†out of the Detroit audience. Buh Buh Ray Dudley then makes the tag to D-Von Dudley, that enters the match. D-Von Dudley enters the match and dashes forming a circle, then storms directly toward his opponent nailing him then with a shoulder tackle right to the middle section.
D-von steps back letting Rob Van Dam stagger back from the corner, and when he does, he nails him with a back body drop. D-von makes the cover: 1…2…, Rob Van Dam gets one shoulder up. D-Von Dudley gets his opponent back to a standing position grabbing him by the ponytail. He then locks him in an Abdominal Stretch variation and takes him toward his corner, where Buh Buh Ray Dudley slaps the back of his brother and then enters the match. D-von maintains the lock and Buh Buh Ray takes full advantage of it and kicks him on the middle section, punishing the gut of his opponent. D-von doesn’t release it just yet and Buh Buh hits a jab right to the ribs. The referee then heavily interferes and takes the illegal team member out of the ring. Buh Buh then methodically grabs Van Dam and starts planting him with right hands to the forehead of his opponent. He then incorporates him back to a standing position, however and out of nowhere Rob Van Dam manages to counter and hit a Jawbreaker changing the tide of the match. Van Dam seems dead and knocked out on the canvas, when out of nowhere he rolls over his head getting back up and leaping toward his corner, then making the tag to Stone Cold Steve Austin. Austin enters the match and surprisingly he climbs to the second rope on the corner, taunting at his opponent. Buh Buh Ray finally gets back to his feet and the rattlesnake leaps out of the ropes landing him with a Double Ax Handle. He then keeps running when landing on his feet and goes toward his opponent’s corner, and nails D-Von Dudley, knocking him down of the apron. He turns around and storms toward the other Dudley, hitting the Lou Thesz Press, and then like a machine unloading straight right hands to the head of his opponent. The referee interferes and manages to separate Austin from his opponent, that remains laid on the canvas knocked out.
Austin circles the referee trying to stop his attack and then goes back to attack Buh Buh Ray Dudley, as he puts the boots on him stomping him right on the head of his opponent. He see RVD anxious for the tag. Austin goes toward his corner and gives his partner the tag. RVD immediately dashes toward the set of ropes he has in front and bounces back performing Rolling Thunder, and landing completely on his opponent.

He then starts kicking him right on the head repeatedly. Van Dam goes toward the corner and makes the tag to Stone Cold Steve Austin. He then tells Austin when he enters the ring to hold on a little.

He then finally recovers a standing position and he starts fighting his way out of the hold repeatedly driving his knee to the head and then middle section of his opponent, however when it seemed that Stone Cold would be making his comeback, D-von drives his forearm to the head of his opponent. He then tries to throw Austin toward the corner, however Austin counters and instead he throws the tag champion toward his own tag team partner, knocking Buh Buh down of the apron, D-von turns around but he manages to attack first knocking the rattlesnake with a clothesline. Dudley then waits for his rival to incorporate, and when he does, he dashes toward the ropes behind him, however from the apron, RVD puts his leg on the ropes, planting D-von Dudley.

Result: Finlay retains against Goldberg
JR: I can’t believe this, why on Earth would Batista cost Goldberg the IC title?
King: Well, both men have been fighting over who is the most dominant, and I guess this was Batista’s way of saying he is of sending a message to Goldberg.

He then incorporates him back to a standing position, however and out of nowhere Rob Van Dam manages to counter and hit a Jawbreaker changing the tide of the match. Van Dam seems dead and knocked out on the canvas, when out of nowhere he rolls over his head getting back up and leaping toward his corner, then making the tag to Stone Cold Steve Austin. Austin enters the match and surprisingly he climbs to the second rope on the corner, taunting at his opponent. Buh Buh Ray finally gets back to his feet and the rattlesnake leaps out of the ropes landing him with a Double Ax Handle. He then keeps running when landing on his feet and goes toward his opponent’s corner, and nails D-Von Dudley, knocking him down of the apron. He turns around and storms toward the other Dudley, hitting the Lou Thesz Press, and then like a machine unloading straight right hands to the head of his opponent. The referee interferes and manages to separate Austin from his opponent, that remains laid on the canvas knocked out.

He climbs to the top rope and comes down with a Split Legged Moonsault, however Buh Buh manages to get out of the way making Van Dam crash and burn. Stone Cold stares at RVD with a disgusted and disappointed look on his face. He then turns around only to get planted by a straight right hand by the now recovered Buh Buh Ray Dudley. The rattlesnake answers back with a punch of his own, but the tag team champion gets the advantage with a knee straight to the middle section of his opponent. He then measures his opponent after stepping a little back and nails Stone Cold with a rolling neckbreaker. He then measures his opponent once again and nails Austin with a leg drop right to the throat and chest. He makes the cover: 1…2…, Stone Cold gets one shoulder up. Buh Buh immediately gets back to his feet and goes toward his corner moving on his knees, then making the tag to his tag team partner, D-Von Dudley.

D-von immediately following the pinfall attempt locks in a sleeper hold on the canvas. The crowd gets quickly behind Stone Cold, cheering him. The rattlesnake begins getting back to his feet still on the hold. He then finally recovers a standing position and he starts fighting his way out of the hold repeatedly driving his knee to the head and then middle section of his opponent, however when it seemed that Stone Cold would be making his comeback, D-von drives his forearm to the head of his opponent. He then tries to throw Austin toward the corner, however Austin counters and instead he throws the tag champion toward his own tag team partner, knocking Buh Buh down of the apron, D-von turns around but he manages to attack first knocking the rattlesnake with a clothesline. Dudley then waits for his rival to incorporate, and when he does, he dashes toward the ropes behind him, however from the apron, RVD puts his leg on the ropes, planting D-von Dudley. The tag champion then bounces back getting kicked on the gut and stunned by Stone Cold Steve Austin. He makes the cover: 1…2…3.
Result: Stone Cold pins D-Von Dudley

Batista: I see you are up now.
Goldberg: You think this is all a game Dave right, you cost me a title, and there is nothing funny about it.
Batista: A game? Oh no, see, you talk about being dominant, and what do you do to show you are the most dominant man in WWE? Go out of retirement for 3 years and then come back and lose title matches.
Crowd boos in the back.
Goldberg: See Batista, you say you are the most dominant man, I say I am, and the way I see it, there is only one way to solve this.
Batista: Then we are both thinking the same thing. You, me, at Wrestlemania 24.

Kurt: So what, I have been champion as well, I even defeated you, and I promise you, I will be champion again. Oh it’s true, it’s damn true!
Lesnar: And what do you plan for becoming champion? Defeating more ECW guys? Because there is no way you are winning that Money in the Bank match, that is guarandamntee! Oh it’s true…

Crowd boos.
Orton: But, there is another thing I need to address. At Wrestlemania, I face, I’m sorry, I kill the legend of Bret Hart, and last week on ECW, I got addressed a challenge from young Teddy Hart. Hart, be careful what you wish for, Do you really want to step into the ring with the Legend Killer?
Crowd starts a little Teddy chant.
Orton: For me, it’s fine. I will face you in that ECW ring, and on the process, I will show Bret Hart what he has coming at Wrestlemania 24. It’s not arrogance, it’s destiny, and come Wrestlemania 24, another legend dies!
