ECW Review: New ECW Champion
This is the first ECW show since Wrestlemania. The show starts off with Kane in the ring. He said that ECW has been a place of a lot of the most exciting, spectacular and brutal moments but the ECW fans haven’t seen anything yet. CM Punk came out and hinted in cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase later that night. Chavo Guerrero came out and said how it wasn’t fair that he had to prepare for 24 different superstars. Kane and Punk insulted Chavo about how short his match was. Chavo said that tonight Kane and Punk would be partners to face Shelton Benjamin and himself. Shelton came out and said that it was luck that got Punk that briefcase and Punk told him that he can call himself whatever he wants but he cant call himself Money in the Bank.
Stevie Richard vs. Mike Knox
Before this match, there was a video clip that showed Knox attacking Stevie Richards backstage and the other way around. I actually enjoyed this match. I don’t remember Mike Knox being good at all but he really isn’t that bad of a wrestler. The ending saw Knox hitting that corkscrew neckbreaker. This feud looks like it will continue.
Winner: Mike Knox
Rating: 2 1/2 stars out of 4
Tazz then interviewed Colin Delaney. He said by next Wrestlemania he hopes to be included in the big show and have a WWE contract. Armando Estrada came out and put over Delaney. He offered him a contract on the spot. Colin was ecstatic. Estrada forgot to tell Delaney something, “April Fools.” He said that if he could win his match tonight, he has a contract. It’s the Big Show.
Colin Delaney vs. Big Show
Delaney tried to walk away from the Show but he couldn’t. The Big Show made him pass out to a cobra clutch.
Winner Big Show
Rating: DUD
Chavo Guerrero and Shelton Benjamin vs. CM Punk and Kane
Punk and Shelton start this match off. This was a very good match. Each one of these superstars works well together. Chavo Guerrero isn’t the biggest superstar in the world. He is about 5’9 and he has to go against Kane who is the 7’0. It is very hard to capture a great match with that much of a height difference but in this match, it worked well. Chavo used his speed and hit quick. I can see these two superstars having a very good title match that last longer then 8 seconds. The ending saw Punk hitting the GTS on the Gold Standard
Winner: CM Punk and Kane
Rating: 2 ½ stars out of 4
Final Rating:
2 ½ out of 4
