– The Sandman chatted on his Web site with fans, and only really commented on his match with The Zombie, implying that the money was the same as a match with a non-supernatural character, and he was happy with the match but didn’t see the rest of the show. He said he liked Cena, owed a lot to Kurt Angle for helping him out (and doesn’t mind Angle or Show on ECW programming) and would like to see Rey come back to ECW.
