SP's Extreeeeme Review 04/24/07
Last week on ECW, CM Punk unintentionally cost ELijah Burke his match against Rob Van Dam? With an 8 man elimination match tonight, would Burke and Punk be on the same page? Read on to find out.
We start the show with footage from the previous week and Punk is shown backstage apologizing to everyone in the NB... Except Burke. Punk then comes back and tells Burke he was just kidding and apologizes to him as well... Oh Punk, you so crazy!
The Bodies hit the floor and we are taped from London, England. Umaga comes out to start the show and he will face Bobby Lashley. On a side note, has anyone else noticed that we've been getting better version of the WM matches on free tv? (MVP vs Benoit, Cena vs HBK, Originals vs New Breed) its one of the reason why I don't but that many WWE PPV's... On to the match.
ECW Champion Bobby Lashley vs Umaga w/Estrada (Battle of the Boring)
We start with some flurries of punches and both men end up on the outside where Umaga rams Lashley's head into the steel steps. Back in the ring and Umaga goes to the top rope but misses the Splash. Lashley comes back with several punches but Umaga knocks him down with a hard right. Umaga gets thrown to the outside but Estrada hits Lashley with the title belt and we have a DQ finish.
Winner by DQ: Bobby Lashley
Vince comes down to ringside just in time to see Estrada getting speared out of his boots by Lashley (not literally) and then thrown out of the ring.
We got to.. Commercial!
We return backstage to see Burke telling the NB (sans Punk) that maybe it wasn't such a good idea to bring in CM. Thorn, Bor Von and Striker all say the same thing... You're the one who wanted him Burke! ANd apparetnly tonight is the biggest night for the New Breed... Bigger than WM? Probably not.
Snistky comes down to the ring and he will face Balls Mahoney, this match happens due to the fact that Balls hit Snitsky with a chair two weeks back.
Snitsky vs Balls Mahoney (Squash my balls match)
I'll keep this short... Snistky picks up ball and throws him upside down in the corner. He hits the Big Boot and that's it, we're done.
Winner:Snitsky
We got to another commercial.
We come back and the ECW original come in through the crowd the New Breed follows and we are... Not starting the match because...
Its time for yet another commercial break.
Before the match starts, Burke tells Punk to take a seat and make this a "fair" 4 on 4 match.
ECW Originals vs ECW New Breed (I've got nothing, sorry)
Dreamer takes down Burke and follows up with a Scoop Slam. Sabu tags in and Dreamer slams him into Burke. He hits a leg drop and lays BUrke on the ropes. Sabu tags Sandman in and he hits a Guillotine Legdrop from the top. he then goes for the Rolling Rock (Sandman's variation of a Swanton) but misses and get rolled up with a handful of tights (Pants, actually) and he is eliminated. Striker tags in and so does Van Dam who whips Striker into the corner and hits a Monkey Flip. Van Dam goes up top but Striker hits the ropes and Rob lands on his nuts. He comes back though and hits the Split Legged Moonsult to get the pin on Striker. Cor von comes in and they reade punches. Van Dam gets the advantage and hits a Flying Cross Body from the Secodn Rope but only gets a two count. Sabu tags in and and puts on an Orton Lock but the ref is distracted and Burke breaks it up Cor Von hits a Swinging Neckbreaker and gets a two count. Sabu tries to come back but runs into and Elbow and then runs into THE MODIFIED SHOULDER TACKLE and gets the pin. Dreamer comes in and we got to commercial.
I should add, that a replay was shown and it is now officially called The Pounce... So that's the end of that joke.
We come back and Burke is beating up Dreamer. Cor Von comes in the match and crotches Dreamer on the ring barrier and Marcus is DQ'ed. Thorn comes in and hits a Spinebuster on Dreamer, then nails Dreamer in the corner. Out of nowhere Tommy hits a DDT and gets the pin on Thorn. Burke then hits the Elijah Express and Dreamer is out! RVD comes in and Burke rams his shoulder into the ring post (Twice, actually). Van Dam tries to mount a comeback but recieves a clothesline for his troubles. He manages to gain the upper hand and hits a high kick. He then kicks Burke on the apron and he falls to the floor. Then Punk whacks Burke with a kick to the back of the head. Van Dam throws Burke back inside, hits the 5-Star Frog Splash and gets the pin.
Winner:THE ECW ORIGINALS!!
We get a BIG CM Punk chant (which was clearly a fluke once again) and he hits the Go 2 Sleep on Burke and then sarcastically says, I'm sorry... Good stuff and we are done.
Best Moment of the Night: Punk turns on the NB... Or did he turn on Burke?
Worst Moment of the Night: Lashley vs Umaga.. I didn't care for the match the first time, the second time, nor this time... Honorable mention to the Snitsky squash match.
Show gets a thumbs in the middle this week. The segments with Punk and the NB and the ME are the only things worth watchingm the rest was just...crap.
And something else... No one cares about Snitsky. He won't be taken seriously because no matter how much bad acne he has, or how many times he shaves his head its still Snitsky. The baby punter with a foot fetish. He's getting this "push" because of Vince's constant hard-on for bug guys and the worst part? I expect to see him in a program with Lashley in the not too distant future... Can't wait for that >_>
Before I leave... Time to pimp some columns. Both of them by Kaedon!
