Angle in ECW.

[N51_rob]

Will he need a new "finisher". I don't think that ECW fans will be sold on the Angle slam as a finisher. I'm thinking a suplex of somesort (belly to back maybe) through a table that had been proped up in the corner. Thoughts?

His finisher is the ankle lock...

Re: Angle in ECW.

I was thiking that but I was strugling to remember matches in the old ECW ending with someone tapping out, but I can barely remember so I may be wrong about that.

I only started watching ECW in late 1997.

EDIT: I forgot about the tazzmission.

And it's lame. He doesn't even work the leg in his matches!

The Angle Slam is good finisher, IMO. I mean, we've seen Saturn use the Death Valley Driver. Heck, Shane Douglas used a Fisherman's Suplex! It'll be fine. But that Ankle lock either has to go, or Angle has to work the leg more than he does.

While I do agree, but being an ankle lock, I don't think you have to work the legs before hand. Not like a figure four per say, where it's pressure on the leg. Angle is bending the ankle, which would hurt with work done to it or not, know what I mean?

Trust me...the ankle lock hurt when my friend did it to me...I can only imagine what having someone like Angle twisting your ankle around must feel like

Re: Angle in ECW.

I'm surprised that Angle is in ECW, after the problems he had when he showed up at the ECW Arena and the whole Raven "crucifixion" thing happened. I thought he was so pissed he told ECW to not show him during their program and to never contact him again.

I understand that now ECW is a WWE entity, but this either has to be a sign that a) ECW is going to be softened up or b) Heyman and McMahon really worked on Angle to get him to go to ECW

Angle also bad mouthed WWE before they showed him the money... Money cures a lot of things... and one of those things is Angle having a problem with ECW.
