After covering ECW live for the past (almost) year, I’m making the move to bring you 10 Thoughts on RAW. Thanks to all my live coverage readers and thanks to Pulse Wrestling for allowing me to write this column. Here we go!
Tonight, we’ll see the fallout from Summerslam. Even though Christian still has the ECW Championship it looks like he’s in for some trouble with William Regal and his lackeys.
It’s the last ECW before Summerslam and we’ll see champion Christian team up with Tommy Dreamer to face William Regal and Vladimir Kozlov. What shenanigans will take place before one of the big four PPVs?
Tonight we’ll have Captain Charisma himself on the Abraham Washington Show. What will champion Christian have to say? Also, what’s in store for Shelton Benjamin and Zack Ryder? WooWooWoo!
Christian puts his ECW Championship on the line in an Extreme Rules Match against former champ Tommy Dreamer. Will Captain Charisma retain or will the ECW Original pull out the upset? Find out tonight!
Captain Charisma won the ECW Championship at Night of Champions and he’ll bring the belt to ECW tonight! Who will Christian feud with on the way to Summerslam?
There was a big “trade” between the brands and ECW has been completely gutted. Hopefully we’ll get some great new feuds to go with the new faces. Plus, a New Superstars Initiative from GM Tiffany will bring even more new faces.
Four of the five participants in the upcoming Scramble match at The Bash will face off in a tag team match tonight. Tommy Dreamer will team up with Christian to take on Jack Swagger and Mark Henry. I’m sure Finlay will get involved somehow. Find out tonight!
Tonight Tommy Dreamer has a non-title match against Jack Swagger. Plus, Evan Bourne vs. Mark Henry and Christian vs. David Hart Smith. Should be a good show.
Tonight, Christian takes on Tyson Kidd which should be a glimpse into the future of ECW. I’m sure Jack Swagger and Tommy Dreamer will have something to say about the upcoming Triple Threat match at Extreme Rules as well.
ECW is in L.A. and they bring us a six-man tag match. Christian, Tommy Dreamer and Finlay will face Tyson Kidd, David Hart Smith and Jack Swagger. Plus, Evan Bourne takes on Mark Henry.
Captain Charisma has retained his ECW Championship and he is on the way to the next pay-per-view: Extreme Rules! What’s in store for the champ tonight? And will Tommy Dreamer get his title chance before his contract runs out?
ECW Champion Christian takes on the World’s Strongest Man Mark Henry in a non-title match. Will Jack Swagger get involved? And what’s the next step for Tommy Dreamer on his quest for the belt? Find out tonight!
Tonight, the Peep-ulation rejoices as Christian celebrates his Backlash win and ECW Championship. Where does this leave “The All-American American” Jack Swagger? Find out tonight!
The Elimination Chase for #1 Contender continues tonight. With a chance to win a title shot at Backlash, Christian, Tommy Dreamer and Finlay compete in a Triple Threat match with the loser eliminated from contention. Who will move on?
Wrestlemania has come and gone and tonight is ECW’s last night with the current roster. Next week, we’ll have some new faces after the draft but maybe some new feuds will start tonight! Plus, a six man tag match!
Tonight is ECW’s last stop on the Road to Wrestlemania. We’ll see some tag team action involving some Money in the Bank participants and a battle between the Bella twins. Hopefully, we’ll get a ECW title match set up for WM 25.
