  1. Things you must watch on the WWE Network – WWE’s ECW

    Leave a Comment

    The WWE Network launches in less than three weeks, and there is a wealth of programming available immediately after you pay your first $9.95.  Over the next few weeks, I will be giving you my personal picks of things to watch on demand on the Network.  Today, I’ll be focusing solely on WWE’s ECW.  Many people hated the product, considering it a bastardization of the Extreme Championship Wrestling we all knew and loved.  At the time, I had long since given up hope that the magic of the original would be captured full time, so my disappointment wasn’t as deep as it was for some.  In fact, the brand produced some great television, if sometimes for the wrong reasons.

    (We know that every single PPV on this list will be available.  Let’s assume for argument’s sake that the non-PPV stuff listed is on there as well.)

  2. At least you died in Philly – ECW, 7/22/08

    Leave a Comment

    I tuned in to ECW last night, and died a little inside.  As a fan of the original ECW, to see a new belt – especially one so hideous – replace the original ECW Championship, it kills me.  You might as well fire Tazz, Tommy Dreamer, and Little Guido while you’re at it, because the ECW I knew is one step closer to being 100% dead.  The worst part about it was, last night’s show was in Philly.  I miss Paul Heyman and Joey Styles.  I miss the hardcore style, and I miss the old ECW Championship belt.  As soon as the words “WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT” became adorned on the ECW title, that was the absolute end of the ECW I knew and loved.  Especially since the show I’ve been watching on Tuesday nights for the last four weeks has pretty much sucked.

    Whatever, I’ve got a job to do – ECW results and my thoughts, after the jump.

  4. This show used to be good – ECW 7/8/08

    8 Comments

    ECW used to be the best show of the week, every week.  Now, I barely feel like reviewing it.  I’m not going extremely in depth this week, but here are the things that bug me:  Finlay and Hornswoggle apparently getting another tag title shot; guys changing their names after their debut (Atlas Ortiz is now Ricky Ortiz), and Hall of Famers making heel turns on C shows.

    Whatever – the review, after the jump.
