It looks like ECW Superstar Elijah Burke is getting repackaged with a new gimmick, or at least a new look. Burke defeated Funaki before Sunday night's ECW tapings that will air in another week. Burke came out with no theme music and dressed in all black clothing. He also no longer has the beads in his hair. Elijah did some sort of gesture in the corner during the match where it looked like he was praying before he came back with some offense. Elijah defeated Funaki in the match with a clean pin.

Religious gimmick?

^ He looks like a black Gangrel, he even comes out with a glass like the O.V did.. I seen pictures of his new gimmick like 2-3 weeks ago on www.wrestlingattitude.com

I would be a nice little boy and find them for all the members but I'm bushed and have a big day ahead of me tomorrow..so yeah :D

If he has a fade or buzz cut, that would look bad-ass. The beads were just getting old. (Not that he was on TV enough for many of us to know >_>)

Whoa he looks like A mix between Jay Lethal and Gangrel :smh

Well it is a real big waste of Elijah and his talent but atleast with a new gimmick Elijah Burke will most likely be on TV (I would prefer him as his old self though) :(

We all would buddy...we all would...:( And on another note (whether it fits the gimmick or not) How could they change his music!? He had the best in the WWE!

Wow the WWE really doesnt know how to push Black wrestlers , They are either Gangsters, Theifs or reverends. What was wrong with Elijah's gimmick the guy at least deserved a run with the ECW Championship.

hmm this reminds me of a Black John Morrison(not being rascist) With the gimmick of Gangrel and the glasses of Jay Lethal. In other words

Horrible.
