01. How stiff did Matt Hardy look walking down to the ring? He looked like a had a stick shoved up his ass or something. Hell if I didn’t know any better, I’d think he was a sack of potatoes with legs and a ponytail.
It’s obvious Matt Hardy’s time has passed by and short of the pops he gets in the ring, all those TLC matches have caught up to him. Morrison on the other hand sold like a god and totally carried Hardy to greatness. With wrestling this good on free TV, why pay for ROH?
02. The referee during the Hardy/Morrison match looked like he was 15. In fact, I heard he totally goes around backstage asking wrestlers to sign all his action figures. I wish I had that kind of access…
03. I hope the The Miz burns in a fire alongside Uwe Boll, Britney Spears, and your mom.
Yes.
YOUR mom.
04. Matt Striker is already the second best announcer on WWE programming and easily kills all the other commentators in TNA and Ring of Honor. Striker for the longest time has had problems finding a niche for himself in the company, looking forever expendable, but finally it seems that he has found a long-term fit for himself in WWE. In fact, he totally offset Todd Grisham (who after watching RAW, seemed like a huge step up from Michael Cole ) in the best of ways.
05. I didn’t see it in Ring of Honor.
I didn’t see it in OVW.
But now, on ECW, I finally see it.
Matt Sydal/Evan Bourne is total, total awesomeness.
06. Tommy Dreamer totally pulled off the weakest looking dropkick to the corner that I’ve ever seen in my life. I don’t know if I should be happy that he managed to somewhat connect with the move or insulted that he even bothered to try.
Honest to god, I totally expected him to break his hip upon landing on the mat.
07. Did you guys catch that promo piece informing viewers of Smackdown’s channel change? What a horrid piece of hype machine. Don’t you think that the WWE can do much better than this?
08. Mike Knox has come back from the woods ladies and gents to hunt for leprechauns!
“Where Is My Pot of God, Bitch?!”
09. As with Morrison, Bourne, and Chavo before, Finlay completely carried his own respective match. It’s apparent that ECW is comprised of one half work horses and one half… well just regular horses. This was Knox’s best match since his match for the ECW world title against Punk many, many months ago, but truthfully it was all Finlay’s doing.
10. And again, wow, the crowd was completely hot for an ECW show. I think that slowly but surely, they deflated over the course of the show, but even then I think this ECW thing might just get over with the general audience just yet.
