The Official ECW Discussion Thread for 7/21/09

[seX-Power]

Keep all discussion in here, including posting previews/spoilers (in tags)/results.

ECW's booking is going everywhere atm, having the Champion and #1 Contender lose last week so I wonder how they will recover and if Kozlov gets in that match. I'm also looking for a continuation of Ezekiel Jackson's push.

I'm hoping Benjamin's win agaisnt Christian wasn't for nothing and it actually goes somewhere. This is there 2nd 1 0n 1 match I believe since Christian's return and both hasve been great. These two need to get in a feud asap. Possibily for the title.

And is it just me, or has Kozlof been more entertaining since joining ECW.

 

[seX-Power]

Hopefully Christian goes over Benjamin this week in a 'redemption' victory. Shelton has done nothing and doesn't deserve to get wins like that.

I'm also speculating that Kozlov will be inserted into the NOC match.

 

[JurassicBonez]

He doesn't deserve wins like that? All of my biased-ness aside, he's one of the top guys that deserves this. Granted the timing of the win didn't quite make since to me. Where someone who got beat by 1 kick by a newbie one week, the next week he beats this newbie, and then beats the number 1 contender for the ECW title the next. But he does deserve to be at the top of ECW.

 

[seX-Power]

I'm saying he didn't deserve a CLEAN win over ECW's top guy 2 weeks after JOBBING to a newbie. Sure, if you build him up with a few matches and put him over in a mini-feud then he could main event ECW, as he has improved a lot lately in the charisma department. I'm a fan as well but a win over Christian? That's just unnecessary at the moment.

Quick question. Why not just post in the current ECW discussion?

 

[seX-Power]

We're trying out this new system because people hardly ever posted in the Original ECW Discussion thread.

There's really nobody on this show I care for much now besides Christian and possibly Helms when he comes back full time. Hopefully Benjamin's win over Christian is a sign of things to come for him. He should at least get the ECW title.

he's one of the top guys

LOL @ Shelton being a top guy.

ECW has bounced back fairly well since it's roster got raided again, and is still an enjoyable show besides Abraham. Shelton and Kozlov winning clean is a curious booking move, but i'm pretty sure it's just leading to a 4way match upcoming or at Summerslam. Just add Ryder and have another fuckin' scramble tbh.

As for this week, I figure Kozlov will mess up Abe's show leading to a brawl and Shelton'll have a promo, probably job to Goldust.

Where the hell has Regal been? Is he suspended again?

^^^Regal: He tagged with Kolov the week before last.

Too many of those scramble matches is a VERY bad idea - Would be damaging to the credibility of the guys involved. Think about it, often you've got ME-ers of their respective brands taking a pin in the space of 5 mins (which would never be seen to happen in a standard match).

It's ok once in a while, but the suggested 4-way would be much better.... Hell, if we're talking Sumemrslam, make it an elimination match.

It doesn't have to be a scramble, and I don't like the concept, just a thought since they did it last month at random. They just have a couple of guys in the title hunt now and it would look bad if they're not in after chumping the guys actually in the title match, Ryder's just a favorite. But I doubt he'd make it to Summerslam at this point.

 

[seX-Power]

I'd cut myself if Ryder were put in the ECW title picture.

 

[JurassicBonez]

LOL @ Shelton being a top guy.

I didn't mean top guy as in top of WWE or even ECW. I meant he's at the top of the list of guys who (imo) diserves to be in a higher position that they are in.

Decent ECW tonight. Only thing I really have to complain about is Abraham Washington. This guy is a total waste of oxygen. He made fun of Dreamer's weight so much, I thought he had re-said something he already said to Tommy. So lame this man is.
