****Official ECW Preview, Live Discussion for 6/13/06****

Re: ****Official ECW Preview, Live Discussion for 6/13/06****

is TNA any good?

It was untill recently when it turned into WCW 2.0

I was <i>mildly</i> entertained by this ECW show. Though before watching it I played one of the worst videogames ever directly followed by watching one of the worst movies ever so maybe this was just ok compared to those.

Good:

Sandman caning the **** out of someone. Stupid gimmick making it better,twice this week now he's caned people with crap gimmicks.

Trinity in the FBI. Explains why she was at ONS.

Somehow got the old ECW belt or just made a new one that looks exactly like it.

Ok:

Opening segment.

Battle royal.

Kelly.

Bad:

Crowd.

Wrestler themes.

Need to get rid of WWE presence.

WWE presence is probably only there because it seems the <b>only</b> heels in ECW are the FBI. Though Mamaluke vs. RVD would likely be a very good match I don't see it working out in a main event title fued. If Credible is supposed to be a heel jobbing him out to Angle wasn't the best idea.

Get rid of this Sci-Fi stuff. **** the Sci-Fi fans,they don't watch this.

**** THIS! That was the worst wrestling show I have ever seen in my LIFE!!! ECW should give up on TV and Smackdown arenas. Let them have six PPVs a year and hold them in ECW areanas like the old ECW the popular ECW, and get the ****in WWE out of there. to bad Heyman can't buy back ECW. U would think if Vince was soo smart he would realize what made wrestling great is the competition, why can't they at least make it look like its own entity.. they failed to do this with RAW and Smackdown, and now they bring in ECW? for what if its not ECW, they might as well just bring back Sunday Night heat or something. That was pure ****

SOOOOOOOO ANGRY

Anyone have any idea if this'll be on somewhere in Canada?

Not yet, they are still trying to get clearance in Canada to air it.

I hope the reason for the bad show was that they are still trying to draw in more fewers, before they become the ECW of old. They have that TV Taping in the ECW Arena in July, and one in the Hammerstein Ballroom in August? So maybe thats when this invasion stuff will stop and we can get back to good old ECW.

Thank you... finally someone who agrees with me! While this show was crap by old ECW standards it really wasn't a horrible show tv wise other than the beyond awful crowd...

I think this is a case of way to high expectations that somehow they would capture ONS or the old ECW with the rebirth... we should have all known that it just wasn't possible, I think whle tonight was an ok/bad episode the shows to come will be fine and once Vengance is over then as JR would say... Business would really start to pick up.

They are filming before Smackdown every time, it's never going to be good in front of the WWE crowd in a big arena, just never gonna happen.

no by early july they start having some tapings alone in ecw environments.... so they'll get a fair shake at least a couple of times before the 12 weeks are up.

On the WWE's schedule, they tape ECW every Tuesday with Smackdown. All the way through every date scheduled.

WWECW was pathetic

I 2nd that.

This show was horrible by every stretch of the imagination.

It has been decided that the first ECW show to air on Sci Fi will be taped on 7/4 from Philadelphia's ECW Arena instead of the event that was scheduled for 6/24.

We'll see, that seems like a lot of work for WWE to be filming in 2 cities for 2 shows at the same time.

That Kelly chick does nothing for me.

I seriously think if The Zombie had shown up with an ECW crowd the beginning would have been electric. The guy was hilarious, grabs the mic and then just mumbles four or five times, the ECW crowd would have been all over him and when Sandman came out it woulda been nuts in there. Kinda like the reaction to Eugene and the Sandman at ONS, but BIGGER. Because it was The Zombie.

exactly my point... if that had occured at an ECW arena it would have been applauded as genius....

What needs to be done:

ECW venues. This needs to be accomplished ASAP as WWE crowds KILL anything this show has going for it.

The Quintessential Studmuffin Joel Gertner. This guy used to be gold. Where is he? They need to bring him in, even if it's just for backstage interviews or something.

Get Rid of WWE guys and stop the new guys beating everyone's ***es. Seriously, hopefully Edge and Cena get the **** out after Vengeance because it's just dumb having them involved. Also hopefully this unstoppable Kurt Angle mowing over prior ECW WORLD CHAMPIONS stops sometime soon too. That match against Credible was rediculous. Big Show dominated the battle royal as well.

Some more violence. Start a feud or something, get Dreamer and Sabu going or something, just so we can get some bloody violent matches once in a while.
