Heading into our first card, Big Magic suffers an eye injury, so the curiosity seekers will have to wait to see if he is the dope, or just a dope. We still have 7 fights on tap and an eager crowd as the lights come up.....

ECW 1: Genesis- February 24th, 2001 - Arizona
Main Event - ECW Middleweight Title
MWIsaiah Monroe 8-0vsDwayne Alleyne 8-0
In a battle of two strong wrestlers, it was Alleyne who pushed the action, but Monroe who controlled it.Going a perfect 4 for 4 on takedowns, Monroe was able to control Alleyne on the ground, landing 39 ground strikes, to only 11, as well as pass Alleyne's guard on 3 of 4 attempts.It was only Alleynes ability to scramble that kept him from getting pounded out, with Monroe stuffing 9 of his attempted takedowns as well.The standup was fairly even at 51 to 42 punches landed for Monroe, but his ground game made the difference 49-46, 49-46, 50-45

Wrap up
A solid if unspectacular main event, which garnered a rating of decent, which part could be due to the barnburner that preceded it in the Jones/Lundie slugfest that saw both men eschew any attempt at grappling, instead throwing haymakers the entire fight.Though they missed more than they landed the action was non-stop and the right hand from Jones that ended it was terrifying.Lundie suffered a concussion and will be out 4 months, while Pimm will be out 3 months with a hand injury.Howles looks to move up in the rankings, but the LHW division is stocked, with Dreck and Pascal squaring off for the that belt at ECW 2: Uprising.
