This is a fictional game world! This game began using TEW 2004 with 1994 data. As such, events in the game world are concurrent with all real world events up until July 1994. From this point on, however, all events that are referenced will be events that occurred within the world. Here are a few quick examples:


Many talent defections took place in the 90's.
WCW were bought out by WWF in 2000. Many workers joined the WWE roster, while others tried their luck in a slightly more hardcore environment.
ECW are an internationally known company (currently just inside the International game parameters). Whilst appealling to a wider audience they remain true to many of their original ideals and the ECW roster still includes many of the original pioneers.
Some major workers including Steve Austin, Chris Jericho and Rey Mysterio Jr (you may spot others) never left ECW in the 1990's and remain as a part of the promotion. However, since the diary has begun Austin has defected to the WWF.
I am the owner of ECW after I took over from Heyman in '99 and I am an occasional on-screen authority (Heyman remains as an authority figure and booker under a lifetime contract).
Kurt Angle joined ECW in '97 not WWE (the "Crucifiction Incident" never happened).
"Sophie Mcintosh" joined the gameworld in TEW 2004. In TEW 2005 I changed her name and picture and she's an on-screen authority with the same stats.

The Franchise Players

http://alanwojcik.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/shane_douglas.jpg
"The Franchise" Shane Douglas

No list of ECW's franchise players could possibly be compiled without The Franchise himself, Shane Douglas. The sacrifices this man has made for and the effort he has given to this great company are well documented and cause for much respect. In fact, he arguably carried the promotion (with support from Sabu) from 1994-1997 and boasts the longest ever world title reign of over two years (a remarkable 736 days from January 15 1995 - January 21 1997)!

His feud with Sabu throughout 1995 helped propel ECW to new heights and culminated in a Barbed Wire Deathmatch at "F**k The Big Two" in November 1995, which he narrowly won thanks to assistance from Chris Benoit. His next rivalry with Raven was one of the greatest in the promotion's history, spanning over a year and showcasing many cutting-edge title matches. This led to what many believe was the best hardcore match of all time at ECW's first pay-per-view, Barely Legal, on January 21 1997. Raven, a babyface at the time, with assistance from Douglas' old nemesis Sabu, was finally able to end the legendary reign of The Franchise.

After this defeat, Douglas took a hiatus from wrestling due to "personal issues" that never were discussed with the media. In 2001, after a four year absence, he returned as a face to challenge Raven in a one-off title match at Hardcore Heaven - he was unsuccesful. He then headed to Japan, achieving moderate success with both WMF and AJPW, only to return in 2006 at Anarchy Rules to defeat Rhino for the World Television Championship.

Now seemingly retired from active competition (but not before revisiting his feud with Raven one last time), Douglas has become the manager and mentor of "The New Franchise" Paul Burchill. Under Douglas' guidance, Burchill seems destined for greatness.

http://www.firetank.com/smashwrestling/databasepics/sabu.jpg
Sabu

One of the craziest bastards in the history of the sport. There is seemingly nothing that the Human Highlight Reel will not do to entertain an ECW crowd. His time with the company has not exactly been the smoothest, though, his fallings out with both Paul Heyman and current ECW owner, Charlie Pag, are well documented. However, regardless of his relations and actions outside of the ring, he remains nothing short of a legend inside it.

His afore-mentioned feud with "The Franchise" Shane Douglas lasted from the end of 1993 right up until his nemesis' departure from the promotion in 1997 and is universally regarded as a classic.

Although his run in the promotion has since become less iconic, he is commonly described as the backbone of the roster. Indeed, whenever a transitional champion is required, it's Sabu; whenever an incumbent talent needs "the rub", it's the Human Highlight Reel who provides it yet always seems to come back stronger.

The question is how much longer this seemingly ageless wonder can really go on. It's no secret that his ring-work has become far more sloppy over the years but the fans evidently still adore him. Whatever his future holds it will be with ECW!

http://slam.canoe.ca/WrestlingImagesR/raven_ecw1.jpg
Raven

Douglas' arch nemesis is the next logical icon to discuss. What Douglas achieved in the '90s as the figurehead of ECW, Raven continued to the new millenium and beyond. He holds the record for the most amount of World Title reigns at six (narrowly beating Douglas and Sabu who both hold five).

His heel turn at 1997's November To Remember, when he betrayed his tag partner Sabu (they faced Cactus Jack and Chris Jericho) is often seen as a pivotal moment in the promotion's history and has been compared to Hulk Hogan's heel turn in WCW. Since changing his alignment, Raven has never looked back, clearly playing the bad guy role with ease.

Since his days feuding with Douglas, he has formed a cult following and has clocked up rivalries with Sabu, Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio Jr, The Sandman, Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart. However, all of these could be eclipsed in the wake of his bad blood with former protege, Paul Burchill. More recently, he was the main attraction in the New Age Enterprise stable that dominated the promotion for a few months and has since reformed Raven's Nest.

http://www.thewrestlingpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/08/chrisjericho.jpg
"Lionheart" Chris Jericho

Chris Jericho had what was perhaps the most meteoric rise to fame in the history of the sport. His feud with Steve Austin surpassed all expectations and pushed both men into the upper reaches of the card. When he was victorious in their final match at Barely Legal '97, he earned his place in the main event.

After entering a tag feud with Cactus Jack against the babyface team of Raven and Sabu, Chris Jericho turned a week after Raven, leading to him challenging for the title at Anarch Rules '97. He was victorious and held the title for five months before being dethroned by Goliath in 1998.

Since then, he has held the TV Title a record four times, the tag titles once (with Rob Van Dam) and formed the elite stable of The Canadian Connection with Christian and Chris Benoit.

http://www.nndb.com/people/808/000108484/shawn-michaels-2-sized.jpg
"The Showstopper" Shawn Michaels

In one of the most shocking events of the '90s era, Shawn Michaels defected to ECW amidst a sea of misunderstandings and betrayals. Vince Mcmahon was unwilling to give Shawn Michaels a title run in the WWF, claiming that Bret Hart was still the most marketable man on the roster. Meanwhile, Kevin Nash, Michaels' old friend, convinced the Heart Break Kid to jump to WCW when his contract ran out in a mere matter of weeks. Michaels indeed saw his contract out and entered negotiations with Eric Bischoff. However, in one of the biggest backstabs in wrestling history, it was revealed that Vince and Nash had engineered the whole thing, freeing up a heel main-event on the WWF roster and a fat paycheck for Big Daddy Cool, who rejoined the Federation. Despite Bischoff's pleas, Michaels' sour experience led to him taking a hiatus. But then, after only a month, Paul Heyman called him up, offering a the best paycheck ECW could muster, a main event push and a the opportunity to air his grievances to the world... he accepted.

Michaels' debut was at Anarchy Rulz '98, when he appeared as a surprise attraction and faced Goliath for the World Title. He was victorious and, as a result, went by the name "Giant Killer" for the next few years. However, he lost the title to Raven shortly after, sparking a feud between the two men in which Michaels never really gained the upper-hand.

More recently, he battled the New Age Enterprise alongside the bWo, Rob Van Dam and Taz, winning the title for a second time in the process. The mutual enemies of him and RVD led to their forming one of the most exciting tag teams in ECW: The Whole F**kin' Show. After one tag title reign that ended in a massive argument between the two and RVD abandoning Michaels in the ring, the team seems to have got its sh*t together. The two men are as good friends as ever and are, once again, World Tag Team Champions.

So you started playing this on TEW 2004 and you used the data converter to convert it into TEW 05 files?

So you started playing this on TEW 2004 and you used the data converter to convert it into TEW 05 files?

Actually, because I'm crap with all that kinda stuff, a painful amount of the TEW 2005 database was done from scratch based of the 2004 stats. Hence why I'm hoping that this diary goes well.

Raven enters the ring
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg


Raven: Throughout history it has been the inaction of those who should have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most that has made it possible for evil to triumph. What about me? What about Raven? I am that evil!

Consider, if you will, that you feckless, fickle parasites revere Shawn Michaels as a god. Last night, I beat that god, I bled that god, I buried the career of that god six feet under. Who kills a god if not a god? I'm on the same, no a higher, existential level than the "Immortal" Shawn Michaels. Yet still you chant his name rather than mine.

So, now, RVD wants a title shot and Raven has to prove himself once more. Furthermore, I have to do it with an injured arm. Nevertheless, prove myself I shall whoever the challenger may be.

So it is written, so it shall come to pass.
Quote The Ra...

The lights go out
They come on again to reveal Sabu, who merely signals at his waist, indicating that he wants Raven's title.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Sabu.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg
The two men stare each other down and Raven slaps Sabu.
A Brawl begins and then RVD comes running out.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RobVanDam.jpg
He goes to kick Raven but misses and decks Sabu. He then unloads rights and lefts on Raven, who manages to escape the ring.
Sabu then attacks RVD from behind, picks up a chair and beats him down, leaving him bloodied.

Joey: Well that was...
Heyman: ...interesting?
Joey: Pretty much
Taz: Man, that was violent
Joey: Very true but now it's Goliath vs. Christian
Heyman: What kind of name is Christian anyway?
Taz: What do you mean?
Heyman: Well my parents had nine months to decide on a name, the same as his, but they didn't call me "Jew".
Joey and Taz try and restrain their laughter
Joey: We apologise for that
Heyman: laughing What?
All three announcers are laughing as the camera cuts to the ring

woah,...Hogan had to find work then eh? after WWE was gone :)

He came to ECW as a heel Main Eventer back in 2000 when WCW went out of business... he refused to work for Vince.

After about a year or two of being the most hated man on the roster, he was too old to carry on wrestling so Roadie it is.

[Nevermore]

will the two shows be competing for ratings?
They shall be competing for ratings, yes, but in the form of a friendly rivalry.

Any crossbrand matches at PPVs (all PPVs cover both brands) have to be agreed by both authorities (except for those booked by me but you'll notice I very rarely pop up - I'm not Vince Mcmahon and therefore prefer to leave the crowd interaction to Paul E. and Steph on the whole).

Basically, they compete as far as it is healthy for the product. They try and hype their matches above the competition's but don't degrade each other.

Dreamer: Last Sunday, Barely Legal marked a two year anniversary. It was exactly two years since I last had a title shot. Well guess what? Raven, I've beaten you before and I'll beat you again. Put quite simply...
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheSandman.jpg
The Sandman emerges from the entrance and attacks Tommy Dreamer with a singapore cane from behind
Sandman: I've heard RVD challenge Raven, I've seen Sabu challenge Raven and now Tommy Dreamer joins the list but the list ends here! If anyone's gonna challenge Raven it's gonna be me!

Don Callis: Wow, in the space of a week Raven has been issued with four seperate challenges: RVD, Sabu, Dreamer and Sandman.
Scott Hudson: Yeah, and you've got to believe that both Steph Mcintosh and Paul E. will be plugging one of the guys from their show to get the next title shot.
Don Callis: That's true. I don't know how this will be settled.
JR: Well if this was WWE...
Don Callis: ...Well it's not WWE Jim. This is ECW, where we give a fair go to all challengers regardless of whether they marry the boss' daughter or not.
Scott Hudson: Calm down guys, I'm sure Steph and Paul will think of something.
Don Callis: True. Anyway, it's now time for Yoshihiro Tajiri vs. Jerry Lynn.

(Huge pop). Anyway, as you may have noticed I've been out with a neck injury thanks to a chair shot from Goldberg two months ago. But hey, we're on different shows I've got no vendetta. There's enough people to kick his ass on F' The Mainstream without my intervention (F**k you Goldberg chant begins - Austin laughs). Having said that, I make my official in-ring return next week (another huge pop) and a very good friend of mine has agreed to be my opponent... none other than Cactus Jack!

Raven enters the ring, for a shoot promo, to a hugely negative reaction
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: The Bible states "There is hope, faith and love but the greatest of these is love." In ECW, there is F' The Mainstream, there is Revolution and there is the ECW World Chamionship. The greatest of these is the Championship.

What about me? What about Raven? I am the ECW World Champion and I am the greatest force hardcore wrestling has ever seen.

As far as I'm concerned, it does not matter if it is RVD, Sabu, Dreamer or Sandman. They are all inferior to me.

The Sandman crashes the ring with a singapore cane in hand but Raven is able to escape through the audience just before he gets nailed.
Sandman raises his hand to jeers from the sellout crowd.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrockLesnar.jpg
He shakes hands with Paul Heyman. He then takes a step back... and clotheslines him! He the rips his ECW shirt to shreds. Huge jeers are heard.
He picks up Heyman's mic...

Lesnar: Did you honestly think I would come to ECW and embrace it? I detest everything you stand for. Hardcore brawling over wrestling, unnecessary violence and rudeness... this promotion is a disgrace. A "Get the f**k out!" chant begins. Why? Because I'm better than you? Because you feel threatened?

The Dudley Boys come running out to a huge ovasion and attack Lesnar.
John Finnegan enters the ring as Heyman stumbles back to the announce table

Joey: Well, it looks like we have an unscheduled match.
Taz: Oh man, this is huge! You okay Paul?
Heyman: clearly in pain Just about. I'll feel a lot better when the Dudleys destroy Lesnar.

Raven enters the ring for a shoot promo
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: How many men does it take to challenge for the ECW World Title? Apparently, four because none of them are good enough to beat me single-handed. What about me? What about Raven? I could destroy RVD, Sabu, Dreamer or Sandman but the problem lies in the fact that I have to watch my back for fear of armed two-on-one assaults. Moreover, I have to remember who I'm supposed to be opposing on which show - it's more difficult than you might think when four men are screaming for your blood.

But it stops here!

RVD, you took me out from behind with a singapore cane last week. So why don't you come down here right now and prove you can do it face-to-face.

RVD's music hits and the crowd goes nuts.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RobVanDam.jpg
RVD walks out with chair in hand taunting Raven.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Sabu.jpg
But as if from nowhere Sabu attacks RVD from behind, takes his chair and blasts him in the head with it.
A limp RVD falls to the floor. Sabu picks him up and throws him through the entrance-way caging and into electrical equipment.

Joey: Oh my God!
Taz: That is absolutely brutal!

Sabu turns to face Raven and the two men stare each other down from opposite sides of the arena before Sabu walks off, leaving RVD to be helped backstage by Hogan and Funk.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall and for the ECW World Television Championship. To my left, from the United Kingdom, the Anarchist Doug Williams. And to my right, the ECW World Television Champion, the Lionheart Chris Jericho.

Tuesday, week 2, June
ECW online has discovered that Revolution has signed Abyss, AJ Styles and Jimmy Yang to written contracts. They will join the brand's roster to expand the lower-midcard. "We are delighted to welcome three wrestlers of great quality to the brand. I'm sure that Jimmy and AJ will fit right in with our outstanding high-flyers, while Abyss will, no doubt, add to the hardcore intensity of the show." said Stephanie Mcintosh in a press conference earlier. When asked when these individuals could be expected to hit ECW TV screens she replied "I can tell you that Jimmy Yang will debut on Thursday against a fellow Japanese native." This means that Yang could face Tajiri, Lyger or Ultimo Dragon. Tune into Revolution to find out who it is!

The Sandman comes to the ring with microphone in hand

Sandman: Tommy. Tommy, Tommy, you don't need to prove anything because everyone already knows you are nowhere near as good as me!
Dreamer: Come on then Sandman: right here, right now - you and me
Sandman: No, I don't think so. I want to save myself for when I face Raven for the title. It doesn't matter anyway, you know in you heart that I would kick your arse.

Both men throw their mics down and go nose to nose.
They are so focused on staring each other out that they do not notice Raven making his way through the crowd.

While Im not trying to step on anyones toes that posts diarys, yours is the best ECW one out there right now (and there are a few) and one of the best period. I am humbled before you are a diary writer and I can only hope to have the same feeling in mine own diary. Good job man, good job.

Thank you I am, in turn, truly humbled by your response. What can I say? I was (and am) a huge, huge ECW fan. Paul E's booking style was almost everything I loved about wrestling. I actually cried when I heard the company went out (I was a bit younger then). This is my own way of trying to keep the old vision alive.

As happy as I am with the relaunch of ECW it's just not quite the same when at the first ECW TV show Cena gets a bigger pop than Heyman. That's just not right in any ECW fans mind.

Heyman: I am in the ring to address a certain Stephanie Mcintosh. I don't know how many of you watch ECW Revolution but Miss Mcintosh is my equivalent on that show so to speak. Now, she offered a "proposal" last Thursday, a proposal that was, quite frankly, the single worst idea I have ever heard! And Believe me I hear a lot sitting next to Joey and Taz.

Seriously, though, her idea is an unacceptable one because I have two guys that deserve a shot at the title - RVD and Sabu. Mind you, Van Dam is not currently cleared to wrestle after last week. My point is, Stephanie, that if RVD's health permits it my two guys will face each other at Wrestlepalooza and in my eyes the winner of that match is far more deserving of a title shot than Sandman or Dreamer.

Jericho: That's right, the one and only Lionheart is here for your entertainment. Now, There may be a whole hell of a lot of controversy surrounding the World Title but there is none surrounding the TV Title. I am your champion and there's not a man good enough alive to beat me. So, Sabu, RVD, Sandman, Dreamer and Raven , when you next start feeling insecure about the amount of challenges coming your way just think WWJD? What Would Jericho Do?

RVD: As you can see, I'm not doing too good. The doctors say I'm not gonna be cleared to wrestle until at least September - that's three months. So, Sabu I would appreciate it if you could come down here. For once, you won't get jumped - you got the better of me.

Sabu obliges and enters the ring
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Sabu.jpg

RVD: Seeing as I can't wrestle the title shot is yours. I have no right to hold you back.

Sabu turns his back on RVD to face the crowd - he performs his signature tribute to his Uncle.
Suddenly, RVD drops the crutches and as soon as Sabu turns aroun again SMACK, he nails him with a roundhouse kick.
He removes his neckbrace, heads to the top rope and delivers the 5-Star

RVD: You think that's all it takes to get rid of RVD? One day in the hospital and I was out ready to beat you down Sabu. At wrestlepalooza I'll return the favour by putting you in the hospital. The only difference is that you'll stay there.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall. To my left, from Toronto Canada, Christian. And to my right, the Man Beast, Rhyno.

Far be it from me to imply that I'm not happy with the fact that the four men who were attacking me left, right and centre suddenly have other things to deal with. However, I have a right to know who I will face at Wrestlepalooza!

Thank you I am, in turn, truly humbled by your response. What can I say? I was (and am) a huge, huge ECW fan. Paul E's booking style was almost everything I loved about wrestling. I actually cried when I heard the company went out (I was a bit younger then). This is my own way of trying to keep the old vision alive.

As happy as I am with the relaunch of ECW it's just not quite the same when at the first ECW TV show Cena gets a bigger pop than Heyman. That's just not right in any ECW fans mind.

Quote The Raven
Nevermore
Ugh! Dont get me started on how bad the ECW debut was. After i saw that it was just an WWE arena with the ECW trimmings I knew it was going to be bad. It was not an ECW crowd and it was not an ECW show. Personally Im a TNA fan, and I feel if you want the ECW type action of old (the great wrestling minus the hardcore stuff even though they have their share of that) then TNA is the place to be. I truly hate what the WWE has done with ECW. All Vince sees is more money when he looks at what ECW could be. Paul looks at it and sees a breeding ground for great wrestlers for the future. By the way Good job on another great show!

Don Callis: We already know that Stephanie Mcintosh will make an announcement tonight. We assume that this is to confirm Revolution's matches for Wrestlepalooza. However, she may also respond to Paul Heyman's comments on F' The Mainstream.
JR: Well let's put speculation to one side and get on with the show.

Lionheart Chris Jericho enters the ring for a shoot promo
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisJericho.jpg

Jericho: How many of you were watching Revolution last week? Wasn't it a joke? Abyss debuts and beats Big Stevie Cool.

Wow, what an achievement, seeing as Stevie couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. Yang debuts amidst much hype and loses. What a let down. AJ Styles, on the other hand... oh no, wait, he lost too.

And then in the main event Cactus Jack was beaten by Steve Austin. The guy's been out with a serious neck injury for two months. He's not yet on top of his game and Cactus still lost to him. What's the matter - not the hardcore freak you used to be?

So to sum up, these people are all facing a few difficulties. Especially that washed up hardcore has-been. So I recommend thinking WWJD? What Would Jericho Do?

Cactus Jack appears at the entrance-way
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CactusJack.jpg

Cactus Jack: Washed up hardcore has-been? Washed up hardcore has-been? Is that what you think of me? Let me tell you that I am proud to call Steve Austin a friend and facing him in that ring is an honor regardless of the result.

You, on the other hand, are an outspoken , egotistical ass hole! You see, Jericho, you made a big mistake in your plain speaking because Stephanie Mac hasn't yet announced the Revolution half of the card for Wrestlepalooza. So, I think that it would be fitting for me to beat some respect into you on Friday! The only reason people even take you seriously is that TV Belt on your shoulder but come Wrestlepalooza it will be on my shoulder.

The two men stare each other down from opposite sides of the arena.

Steve Austin accepted my challenge last week and it looks like we'll square off at Wrestlepalooza. But let me warn you, Austin, I'm no walkover like Cactus Jackoff. I will kick your ass and still make you look better than you ever have before because I am just that good a wrestler. People for years will remember your name. Don't that make you proud Austin? You will go down in history as the man who lost to Rocky!

Austin appears at the entrance-way

Stephanie Mcintosh enters the ring
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: I'm out here for two reasons. Firstly I want to announce the Revolution half of the card for Wrestlepalooza.

Our opener, will be: Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Juventud Guerrera, who have expressed an interest in a rematch after their meeting two weeks ago.

For the ECW TV Title: Cactus Jack will challenge Chris Jericho

And of course: Steve Austin will face Rocky

My second announcement ties in with Revolution's final match on the card: Tommy Dreamer vs. The Sandman. The controversy surrounding the World Title has to end! So, I suggest that either RVD or Sabu, depending upon who wins in their match, faces either Dreamer or The Sandman, again depending on the victor, at Summer Assylum in July. The winner of this inter-promotional match will face the ECW World Champion. I think that this scenario is a fair outcome for all parties.

Sandman powerbombs Dreamer through the announce table and casually walks backstage.
Hogan and Funk come out to help Dreamer but he refuses, walking to the back on his own. He recieves applause as a result.

Don Callis: Oh, come on, there must be at least fifteen tables under the ring and you have to use ours?

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is a lucha libre showdown. To my left, from San Diego California, Rey Mysterio Jr. And to my right,from Nagoya Japan, Ultimo Dragon.

Then: Chris Benoit will face Eddie Guerrero

Kurt Angle will defend the pride of ECW agains Brock Lesnar

Rob Van Dam will settle his score with Sabu

And Bill Goldberg will face Raven for The ECW World Heavyweight Championship.

Now, Stephanie Mcintosh made a proposition on Revolution and, though I'm loathed to admit it, it was fair. So I agree to the terms. The winner of RVD vs. Sabu will face the winner of Dreamer vs. Sandman for the number one contendership.

And, finally, to get you all in the mood for Wrestlepalooza here is Masato Tanaka vs. Steve Corino in a television warm-up match.

Jericho's been reigning strong as Television Champion, so I give it to Jericho.

Part of me wants to say Brock, as you build him as a mega heel, but I love Kurt Angle.

ECW and Cverse diaries are about the only ones that interest me, so I finally got around to checking this diary you told me about. Michaels, Austin and Rocky taken out of WWE in the 90s? Would've been interesting to see your vision about what WWE and WCW did back then to make up the Attitude Era and if there was a montreal screwjob. Atleast I know Bret didn't get his head punted by Berg. Hogan being in ECW is pretty crazy. I read somewhere that he was actually able to adapt to the japanese style back in the day on some tour, and did a dropkick or something.

Nice card. I'm predicting a Goldberg win. I don't like the idea of Raven having long term title reigns- I prefer the character to be chasing rather than on top of the world. You're doing a pretty good job with the Raven promos, btw. It would be interesting to see if you could put together one of those Raven / Cactus Jack masterpieces.

ECW and Cverse diaries are about the only ones that interest me, so I finally got around to checking this diary you told me about.

a). I'm glad you did.

Nice card... You're doing a pretty good job with the Raven promos, btw. It would be interesting to see if you could put together one of those Raven / Cactus Jack masterpieces.

b). Thank you! Cactus is currently a face, while Raven's a heel but maybe I can blend their interview styles in some way. Those promos back in the day were awesome!

Michaels, Austin and Rocky taken out of WWE in the 90s? Would've been interesting to see your vision about what WWE and WCW did back then to make up the Attitude Era and if there was a montreal screwjob. Atleast I know Bret didn't get his head punted by Berg. Hogan being in ECW is pretty crazy. I read somewhere that he was actually able to adapt to the japanese style back in the day on some tour, and did a dropkick or something.

c). Aaah, wondered when this would come up! WWF/E's main stars in the 90s were: Jeff Jarrett, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Justin Credible (would you believe?), Lex Luger, Bret Hart, Road Dogg and Undertaker.

Bret's still wrestling and on good terms with Vince, seeing as the Montreal Screwjob never happened. Vince, conversely, has a hatred for Michaels after he jumped ship to the extreme.

After WCW were bought out most of their stars joined WWE. The only ones ECW got were Goliath, Goldberg (after they were released by WWE) and Hulk Hogan (who refused to work for Vince). Hogan made a great heel for a couple o' years, being so anti everything ECW stands for, but basically he was just a jobber for the Main Eventers. Now, he's so useless in the ring that road agent was the only way to go.

Alongside me, as is the custom at our pay-per-view events, are the authorities of both F' The Mainstream and Revolution: Paul Heyman and Stephanie Mcintosh.
Heyman: It's great to be back home Joey, especially with such a great show lined up.
Steph: Absolutely Paul and can I take this opportunity to say how glad I am that we came to a suitable arrangement regarding the World Championship?
Heyman: I am too Steph. I think this understanding will yield positive results for everyone.
Joey: For those of you have been sleeping under a rock for the past month, to what my broadcast colleagues refer is tonight's special Triple-Header Main Event. The winner of tonight's seventh match will face the winner of tonight's eighth match, in a month's time, at Summer Assylum. The victor of that match will face the World Champion, who will be decided tonight in the ninth and final match. If you understand that you'll understand anything!
Steph: It was the best we could come up with under the circumstances.
Joey: No, I think it'll work great, it's just a bitch to explain!

Steve Austin enters the ring to a standing ovation.

Austin: I'm out here for two, very simple reasons. Firstly, I want to wish Cactus Jack the best of luck in his TV Title match against that loudmouth son of a bitch Jericho.

Secondly, I just want to make it perfectly clear that Rocky is going home with an 'L' chalked in his career column. He wanted this match just to fuel his ego 'cos he can't stand to be left off a pay-per-view bill but tonight that supersize ego is gonna take one hell of a beating.

Oh, you may get a pop in bigger arenas in other states but this isn't South Dakota, this is my hometown - Pittsburgh, PA; I am Kurt Angle and you... wil tap out!

Heyman: Take that Lesnar! Take that Lesnar! In your face bitch!
Joey: Paul, Paul, calm down. I'm as happy as you are but just calm down.

Angle is celebrating in the ring but Lesnar attacks him from behind, hits the F-5 and proceeds to bloody him with a chair.

Lesnar: I will bury the names of Kurt Angle and ECW if it is the last thing I do. Don't think this is the end.

Heyman: Damn it!
Steph: As much as that sucks, we should focus on the rest of the show and now Revolution will open the Triple-Header Main Event: Tommy Dreamer versus The Sandman in a Singapore Cane Match.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TommyDreamer.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheSandman.jpg

Joey: Oh man, that's thrown a spanner in the works! What happens now?
Steph: I had a contingency plan for just such an occurence. We'll just have another match on Revolution.
Joey: If they're in a fit state...
Heyman: Yeah, that was hellacious. Maybe the title shot should just go to one of my guys.
Steph: Don't even think about it Paul!
Heyman: Well, anyway, it's F' The Mainstreams turn to entertain you: Rob Van Dam vs. Sabu and this one could get very ugly!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RobVanDam.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Sabu.jpg

This match is also a harcore, bloody spectacle. in the seventeenth minute, Rob Van Dam throws Sabu through the steel caging at the entrance-way, into electrical equipment (just like Sabu did to RVD a few weeks ago). Rob Van Dam then climbs the stairs to the second floor balcony and makes his way to the front of the crowd. To everyone's amazement he leaps off the second story guardrail to perform the 5 Star Frog Splash on Sabu. Electrical sparks fly everywhere and both men seem incapacitated. John Finnegan has no choice but to rule the match a no contest.

Match ends in a draw at 17:42
Match Rating: A*

Joey: OH MY GOD! That was incredible. That has to go down in history as one of the craziest things in wrestling history!
Heyman: Yeah, that was amazing!
Joey: But what happens regarding the title shot?
Heyman: Oh, it should so go to RVD after that.
Steph: Your joking! My guys match was way better. The winner of the rematch on Revolution should get it before anyone off your show!
Heyman: You're just being biased!
Steph: So are you!
Joey: Guys, guys, maybe we can settle this later in the week. We still have a match to call!

Paul and Stephanie stare at each other angrily.

Raven is backstage for a shoot promo
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: And the world was without form and darkness was upon the face of the deep. This was the case in ECW when untalented, useless champions reigned. This was the case in ECW when has-been wrestlers main evented the card. What about me? What about Raven? I led the world of ECW into the light!

I am the morning star of this promotion, the endless beacon of eternal light amonst the squalor and filth. I am the sole reason that ECW is so succesful. So, when you cheer for Kurt Angle or Rob Van Dam, remember who made the promotion where they showcase their limited skills.

Tonight, I shall showcase my far greater skill. No, my undeniable greatness, when I defeat Bill Goldberg.

So it is written. So it shall come to pass.
Quote The Raven,

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall and for the ECW Wold Heavyweight Championship! To my left, the challenger, from Tulsa Oklahoma, Bill Goldberg. And, to my right, from The Bowery, he is the ECW World Heavyweight Champion, Raven.

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution!
Hudson: Tonight's action takes place in the American Airlines Centre in front of 10,500 fans.
JR: That's close to record attendance for Revolution.
Hudson: Yes it is. It just goes to show that you won't find a more exciting wrestling promotion than ECW.
JR: Well there is always...
Callis: ...Jim, if the letters 'WWE' even cross your mind, I am perfectly prepared to throw your fat ass into the most rabid wrestling audience you'll ever find!
Hudson: And I won't stop him.
Callis: Anyway, I apologise for the domestic folks. Tonight's card includes a TV Title match, a Wrestlepalooza rematch between Juvi and Rey.
Hudson: And the main event is even better. Rocky faces Cactus Jack!

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is a Japanese showdown. To my left, The Buzzsaw: Tajiri. And, to my right, from Nagoya: Ultimo Dragon.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisJericho.jpg

Jericho: The Lionheart Chris Jericho can defat any enemy, conquer any foe, overcome any obstacle. And guess what? I did it again on Friday night.

You see Cactus, it doesn't matter whether you're friends with Steve Austin because he couldn't save your ass when I was busy kicking it nine ways to Sunday. So, next time when you feel like issuing a challenge to someone just think 'WWJD? What Would Jericho Do?' Well, actually, I'd be safe in the knowledge that I am superior to any opponent but then that's a luxury you can't afford because you are a washed-up, old has been. You have no place in ECW, Cactus, you are obsolete!

Callis: He might just be the most arrogant man on the planet but the thing that everyone hates about him most is that he is as good as he says he is!
JR: It's true Don. You have to give him credit.
Hudson: Agreed, let's not forget that his TV Title reign is now entering its seventh month. That's impressive in itself!

Tommy Dreamer enters the ring for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TommyDreamer.jpg

Dreamer: After Wrestlepalooza everyone's wondering what will happen as far as the number one contendership is concerned. Well, on Friday there was a miscarriage of justice! I should have won that match and it was a fluke that The Sandman landed the way he did! What's more, I'm willing to prove it right here, right now!

As expected, The Sandman enters the ring with a Singapore Cane in hand.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheSandman.jpg

The two men look set to brawl

Stephanie Mcintosh appears at the entrance-way.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: No, no no. You two can't just take up ten minutes of ring time every week and beat the hell out of each other in an unsanctioned fashion! This has got to stop.

Sabu, RVD and you two all have an equal claim to a championship match and, frankly, any of you could face each other to decide the number one contender. However, until a definitive course of action is made, if either of you so much as touches the other, I will personally ensure that you are disqualified from the title picture!

Rey: Juvi, man, you gave me a great fight at Wrestlepalooza and I don't think we can settle who the better man is in just one match. One of us could have an off night or something. That's the main reason why we're having this rematch but I propose we make this the first match in a best of seven series.

Juvi looks indifferent.

Rey: Come on, man, you bring out the best in me every time I face you in this ring.
Juvi: You know what? I'd be honored Rey!

The crowd applaud heavily as they shake hands.
Juvi quickly turns the handshake into an armdrag, however, and the match begins...

I was here dishing out hardcore beatings before we had national TV exposure, I was here before we had two brands, hell, I was here before we even had a pay-per-view deal! Rocky, you are no different to any other hardcore-wannabe I've faced. You will experience a world of hurt at the hands of Cactus Jack. Bang Bang!

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall. To my left, the hardcore icon that is Cactus Jack. And, to my right, from Fort Lauderdale Florida: Rocky.

ECW online has discovered that Revolution have made a contract offer to a young Canadian called Apocalypse. All that is known about him is that he trained at the Hart Dungeon.

"We are always looking for young talent to join Revolution" said Stephanie Mcintosh earlier today "and it seems clear to me that Apocalypse will fit right in with our hardcore pioneers. Expect him to be making frequent appearances in the near future."

Will the ECW powers that be, most notably Stephanie Mac, actually award large amounts of national TV exposure to this relative unknown? Only time will tell.

Heyman: Sorry to dissapoint. I have something on my mind.
Joey: Would you be referring to the title situation?
Heyman: That's the one Joey.
Taz: Yeah that has got a little bit out of hand.
Heyman: Well, I've invited Stephanie Mcintosh to the show tonight and we plan to have a meeting with the ECW owner, Charlie Pag, so we can sort things out.
Joey: What the hell's he getting involved for? I thought he did the business side of things and left the booking to you and Stephanie Mac.

Joey: Well that's scuppered that match then.
Heyman: Maybe not.
Heyman picks up a mic.
Heyman: Rhino, seeing as you just took out one of our competitors, and believe me I have no problem with that, you can take his place. Rhino vs. The Messiah. *There is a big pop from the crowd at the prospect of seeing Rhino in action*

Last night, despite the match going to a draw, I think I proved that I deserve that title shot when I threw myself of a freakin' balcony just to take out Sabu.

Sabu makes his way to the ring, also limping slightly.

Heyman picks up a mic.
Heyman: Woah, woah, woah! I've gotta say that I agree with Stephanie Mac on this one. You are just wasting time! If you want to fight so bad you can damn well do it in a match!

If either Sabu attacks RVD or RVD attacks Sabu outside of a match, I will ensure that both of you are suspended because I need a certain amount of solid ring time to display great wrestling contests. Do I make myself clear? Thank you.

Heyman: I've just spent the last twenty minutes in a boiling room, discussing the action we should take concerning the world title. *A "Thank you Paul" chant begins and Heyman laughs*

Think nothing of it. Now me an Stephanie Mac have agreed to work in the interest of both shows, however, we have not yet reached a definite decision as to what to do. We will meet again at Revolution to finalise a plan. Until then my earlier words hold true - if RVD and Sabu fight outside of a sanctioned match I will personally suspend them.

Callis: Not only that, Scott, but Shawn Michaels will face Steve Austin to see who will wrestle Raven for the World Championship at Summer Assylum.
JR: What about Dreamer and Sandman?
Hudson: Well, Stephanie Mac is meeting Paul Heyman and Charlie Pag tonight to decide that. I suppose whoever comes out on top of that situation will get a title shot at Hardcore Heaven in August.

Raven enters the ring for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: Marx once said that "Religion is the opiate of the people". What about me? What about Raven? Well, evidently, my title is the opiate of the entire ECW roster.

If the whole Sandman, Dreamer, Van Dam and Sabu bullsh*t wasn't enough now Austin and Michaels are squaring off to get a chance to face me. I beat Michaels just over a month ago. How many times do I have to prove myself superior?

Also, it appears that Burchill's after my belt as well. One wonders if the list of challengers has ever been so long but one thing is for certain...

Tommy Dreamer and the Sandman walk to the ring, side by side, each armed with a Singapore Cane.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TommyDreamer.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheSandman.jpg

They attack Raven, who manages to escape before too much damage is done.
Dreamer and Sandman shake hands but then Dreamer motions for The Sandman to turn around. He does so.

As if from nowhere, RVD flies off the top rope and kicks Sandman in the face.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RobVanDam.jpg

Hudson: What the hell is that? He's not even on our show's roster!
Callis: Well, if you watched F' The Mainstream last week, you would have seen RVD on his cellphone. I guess this is what it was about.
JR: Oh I get it. RVD will be suspended if he attacks Sabu but there's nothing to stop him from attacking The Sandman. And, after all, if he gets the chance to take another challenger out of the picture, he will take it.
Callis: Spot on Jim!
Hudson: But he can't just show up here!
Callis: I think he just did.

RVD and Dreamer bloody Sandman with the Singapore Canes and head to the back.

Heyman, Mcintosh and Pag leave the conference room backstage.

Pag: I might see you later Paul.
Heyman: Okay Pag. I'm glad we got this sorted.
Heyman leaves.
Pag: And I'll see you later tonight, Steph.
Steph: Where are we going out to?
Pag: You'll see.
Pag kisses her on the hand and they walk off in opposite directions.

Stephanie Mcintosh enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: I, along with Paul Heyman and Charlie Pag, have come up with a suitable solution to the title problem. In order to ensure no more unsanctioned attacks or cross-brand assaults on either show, we have decided a tag-team match makes sense.

RVD and Sabu will face Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman at Summer Assylum. The winning team will wrestle one another at the next TV show after the pay-per-view to decide who will face the champ at Hardcore Heaven. Problem solved!

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall and is for the Number One Contendership. To my left, from Victoria Texas: Stunning Steve Austin. And to my right, from Houston Texas: Shawn Michaels.

Stephanie Mcintosh enters the ring for a second time.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: Due to the fact that this last match ended under unfair circumstances, I have, just this second, discussed an alternative solution with Charlie Pag. He persuaded me that it would be best for business if, next week, we hold another Number One Contenship match. This time with Paul Burchill included to make it a triple threat.

Hudson: Something about that strikes me as dodgy.
Callis: I know the feeling.

Pag bumps into Raven backstage.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Pag: Just the man I wanted to see.
Raven: And why's that?
Pag: I think we can both help each other out.
Raven: I'm listening...

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW...
Taz: ...F' The Mainstream.
Heyman: That never fails to crack me up. Tell me, do you finish each other's sentences away from the show.
Joey: No.
Heyman: So why now?
Taz: It's our thing.
Heyman: Your thing? What a convincing arguement.
Taz: Yeah, everyone has a thing.
Heyman: They do?
Taz: Yeah all announce teams have a trademark introduction.
Heyman: There just not all so camp.
Joey: I wondered when the day would come that I had to call a show single-handed again.
Taz: He's right. 10,000 fans are here at the Jefferson Civic Centre.
Joey: Let's go to Bob Artese.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall and for the ECW World Television Title. To my left, the challenger, The Canadian Extremist: Lance Storm. And, to my right, he is the ECW World Television champion: The Lionheart Chris Jericho.

Paul Heyman enters the ring to chants of "Paul E."
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: Thank you. Now, tonight's show has a continuous theme so to speak. That theme is the number two. You see, there will be a double main event, both of which will be tag-team matches.

Firstly, RVD and Sabu will learn to work together, in preperation for Summer Assylum, by teaming to face the former ECW World Tag Team Champions: The Dudley Boys.

Also, we will combine two pay-per-view rematches. At Summer Assylum, Chris Benoit will wrestle Eddie Guerrero and Kurt Angle will wrestle Brock Lesnar. So, tonight Angle and Benoit will team to face Lesnar and Guerrero!

Goliath: Goldberg, you have the reputation for being a monster but I see no reason for it, especially since you lost you title match at Wrestlepalooza. So, at Summer Assylum, I will prove to you who the real ECW monster is!
Goldberg nods in acceptance and mouths "You're next".

Lesnar: Last week Kurt Angle made me look stupid and tonight he's gonna pay. Kurt get your ass out here right now!

Kurt Angle appears at the entrance-way but The Hardy Boys attack him before he can make it to the ring.

Joey: Damn. It was a setup.
Taz: It sure was Joe and I think The Hardy Boys just repaid Brock Lesnar for him helping them get the tag gold last week.
Heyman: At Summer Assylum I hope Angle breaks Brock's ankle!
Joey: Well, now it's time for the first of our main events. RVD and Sabu face The Dudley Boys.

Heyman picks up a mic.

Heyman: This goes to Stephanie Mac. Keep your guys on your show or there will be hell to pay!

Chris Benoit is backstage for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisBenoit.jpg

Benoit: Eddie, know this, at Summer Assylum I will prove that you never deserved a victory over me. It was a fluke and it won't happen again. So, prepare yourself for the most hellacious match you have ever had!

Tonight will be no different. I can beat you in a tag match just as I can one-on-one. Tonight you will tap out.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall and is a merged tag-team match. To my left, Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit. And, to my right, Brock Lesnar and Eddie Guerrero.

Steph: Okay, see ya.

Shawn Michaels confronts Stephanie Mac.

Michaels: What the hell is this triple threat about?
Steph: I'm sorry?
Michaels: You came to a conclusion about it with Charlie Pag right?
Steph: Yes.
Michaels: Well, I just hope you know he's playing you like a fiddle! He's just getting close to you so that you make the booking decisions he wants.
Steph: Do you honestly think I'd be stupid enough to not see that happening?
Michaels: If you're not going to listen that's fine but don't say I didn't warn you! He's just going to use you and lose you.
Michaels leaves looking annoyed.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall and for the ECW World Television Title. To my left, the challenger from Nagoya Japan: Ultimo Dragon. And, to my right, he is the ECW World Television Champion: The Lionheart Chris Jericho.

Now, on the subject of Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman, they will both have warm up singles matches to make sure they're on form for Summer Assylum. The Sandman will face Nate Hatred and that match is up next. As for Dreamer, he will go one on one with Rocky!

Cactus Jack seems disgusted with himself because of his recent losing streak. He begins a repeat performance of two weeks ago, flying completely off the handle.

Rocky enters the ring with a chair in one hand and a microphone in the other.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock.jpg

Rocky: Well if it isn't the good friend of Steve Austin, the non-stop losing phenomenon that is Cactus Jack.
Cactus goes to attack but Rocky folds the chair around his skull.
Rocky: Come on hardcore icon. Come on get up.
Cactus stands only to recieve another chair shot that echoes around the arena. He then mounts Cactus' limp body and pummels away at him until he draws blood.
Rocky: Austin. Do you want to know what's going to happen to you at Summer Assylum? Just look at your friend here. This pales in comparison.
*An "Austin" chant starts*
Rocky drops the mic and leaves the ring. Cactus Jack is left in a pool of his own blood, half unconscious, crying tears of anger, pain and frustration.

Callis: Oh good god! That is possibly the most horrific thing I've seen in months. I've never seen Cactus Jack beaten down quite like that.
Hudson: That was scary Don. Cactus Jack usually has more fight in him.
JR: Thanks to this losing streak, he seems like a broken man.
Callis: Well, momentarily putting that behind us, it's time for Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Juventud Guerrera. Juvi leads the best-of-seven series 2-0. Can Rey claw one back?

After the bell rings, Rocky is just able to escape through the crowd before Austin can get his hands on him. However, Austin gives chase through the crowd until both men reach the backstage area. Rocky is able to hide in a store room before Austin catches up. Austin, still looking pissed, decides to give up and heads back towards the ring.

Hudson: Wow Rocky escaped by the skin of his teeth. Do you think Austin was looking for revenge on behalf of Cactus Jack?
JR: I think you've got it spot on Scott.
Callis: Well, now it's time for the main event.

Bob Artese: The following contest is one fall and is a triple threat match for the Number One Contendership. In this corner, from Victoria Texas: Steve Austin. In the opposite corner, from San Antonio Texas: Shawn Michaels. And finally, from Surrey in the UK: Paul Burchill.

I'll say here that in the TV shows from this point there will be very basic opening credits (just 'cos I wanted you to be able to hear the theme music and just feel that ECW vibe).

The idea to include media files in this diary came from ToddTheBodd. I hope that neither he, or the Stallion, who have both pioneered this technique, mind that I have included these additions.

[The Stallion]

Like you said brother, the Opening videos adds just that much to the feel of things. Great show and I like where you are going with the Cactus Jack storyline. Question for you. In this reality, did Austin ever go to WWE or did he come strait from WCW and stayed Stunning Steve Austin?

Question for you. In this reality, did Austin ever go to WWE or did he come strait from WCW and stayed Stunning Steve Austin?

He never went to WWE. This, for me, was always one of the most interesting things about the gameworld: WWF/E were able to survive, when WCW went out of business, despite the attitude era never happening.

Heyman: Tonight, in a lot of ways, is a preparation for Summer Assylum. For instance, Goliath just had a warm-up match to prepare him for Goldberg, who will have his warm-up match next week.

Both Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit, who will face one another at Summer Assylum, will have matches tonight to keep them in fighting shape.

Also, RVD and Sabu will team again, in prepartion for Sandman and Dreamer, to face The Hardy Boys in a non-title match.

Finally, due to the brawl backstage about twenty minutes ago, we will see Masato Tanaka take on Steve Corino in the main event.

You were only able to pin me because of Chris Benoit's careless stupidity. So, at Summer Assylum I'm gonna put you in your place once and for all. If you have any guts whatsoever, you will accept my challenge and, at least, take your beating like a man.

As Chris Benoit makes his way to the ring, he tries to apologise to Kurt Angle but just recieves the cold shoulder.

Callis: That's not all. Stephanie Mcintosh will announce Revolution's half of the card for Summer Assylum and Raven will address the sellout crowd, apparently to discuss his controversial actions last week. However, now it's time for our first match.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall and for the ECW World Television Title. To my left, the challenger all the way from hell: Nate Hatred. And, to my right, he is the ECW World Television champion: The Lionheart Chris Jericho.

Jericho picks up a mic
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisJericho.jpg


Jericho: Now, I haven't yet been approached by any member of the management with a match idea. So, I'm assuming that I am currently not on the bill for Summer Assylum.

If overlooked by the administration WWJD? What Would Jericho Do? He would rectify this huge injustice. Therefore, I am issuing an open challenge. Anyone who wants to challenge for my TV Title can do so.

Callis: So, Rey gets the momentum heading into Summer Assylum.
JR: Yes, but will Juventud Guerrera? His match is up next.
Hudson: Not quite yet though, Jim, as Stephanie Mcintosh will announce Revolution's pay-per-view matches in full.

Stephanie Mcintosh heads to the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: As you are probably aware, I am here to officially announce Revolution's matches for Summer Assylum.

First of all, Chris Jericho, if you want to be arrogant and issue an open challenge, I'll be the one to answer it. You will defend your TV Title against Ultimo Dragon, Jushin Lyger, Tajiri, Jimmy Yang, Psicocis, Jerry Lynn and CM Punk in a 8 man battle royal!

Secondly, Rey Mysterio Jr. and Juventud Guerrera will battle it out in the fourth match of their best-of-seven series. Rey, of course, has the opportunity to pull even and make the series 2-2.

It is time for Rocky and Steve Austin to settle their score. So, they will face one another on Friday night!

Then, representing Revolution in the inter-promotional tag team match, will be Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman. If they win the match they will face each other for the Number One Contendership.

Finally, as decided last week, albeit under controversial circumstances, Paul Burchill will challenge Raven for the World Heavyweight Championship.

Raven enters the ring to address the sellout crowd.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: The death of one man is a tragedy. The death of one thousand? Merely a statistic. For example, countless servicemen have died in Iraq and you recognise it. Yet, you cannot fathom the huge, individual suffering caused by each single incident. What about me? What about Raven? I just wonder why have so much affection for two ECW wrestlers. Children die every day, genocide and murder is carried out everyday but still you jeer me for simply attacking Austin and Michaels last week.

Since that time, all I've heard is "Why Raven? Why?" Well, consider this: I wasn't unfairly assaulting two righteous men but, in fact, ridding ECW of an unnecessary cancer. You see, due to me selflessly sacrificing myself in order to take out "Stunning Steve" and Shawn Michaels, we are all free to watch or participate in wrestling without feckless parasites like them leeching of the achievements of others.

So it is written; so it has come to pass.
Quote The Raven

Callis: Well, that was the biggest load of BS I have ever heard!
Hudson: He made it seem like he was doing it for the fans. What sort of warped world perspective must you have to believe that?

Shawn Michaels is backstage for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels2.jpg

Michaels: What Raven said earlier was a joke! His actions last week were not taken out of charity or benevolence. He assaulted Steve Austin and me only to benefit himself.

Just think about it. Steve Austin has been on a huge roll since returning from injury and, therefore, there is no way Raven would want to defend the title against him. As for me, Raven cheated me out of the title two months ago and broke my ribs in the process. I have been dying to get my hands on him again because I know, just as he does, that I would not lose again. Now think of Burchill. He is on no great form and has no vendetta so Raven would obviously rather face him.

In addition, and this is where it gets scandalous, there is another ulterior motive: Burchill "persuaded" Charlie Pag to get him a title shot. What relevance does this have? Well, Pag clearly has our head booker, Stephanie Mcintosh, eating right out of his hand and was able to make that triple threat match, which I hope everone now realises was held under unfair circumstances.

He then persuaded Raven of the benefits they would both recieve if the champ intervened to help Burchill win.

Now, I'm not gonna stay here and bitch but I want everyone to know the true, corrupt reasons behind Raven's actions. I hope that this also helps remove the wool from Stephanie Mac's eyes.

Stephanie Mac approaches.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: Shawn, I know you are upset but you have no right to talk about me or Charlie Pag like that. He only has my best interests in mind and, as far as your conspiracy theory goes, he would never involve himself in something like that.
She becomes visbly angry and upset.
Steph: I'll warn you now that if you ever make an outburst like this again, I will fire you immediately.

Charlie Pag approaches.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpg

Pag: It's alright Steph. Shawn's just upset about last week.
Michaels stares at him angrily.
Pag: I don't blame him; I'd be upset too. I won't hold this against him. So, there's no reason for you to do so.

Charlie Pag turns and walks off with Steph, his arm around her. Unknown to Steph, he gives a hand signal behind his back.

Burchill jumps Michaels and assaults him but is careful not to make enough noise for Stephanie to notice.

Rocky carries a sports bag to the ring with him and leaves it at ringside.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall. To my left, from Long Island New York: Cactus Jack. And to my right, Steve Austin's opponent at Summer Assylum. From Fort Lauderdale Florida: Rocky.

Cactus Jack is beside himself. As Rocky goes to attack, he seems to submit to the beating.
Steve Austin runs in to help his friend as Rocky quickly runs to his sports bag and pulls an object out.
It soon becomes apparent that it is a tazer, which he uses to stun Austin. He then pulls a length of wire from his bag and ties Austin to the ring ropes.
He proceeds to beat down Cactus Jack, while an incapacitated Austin is forced to watch.

Your storylines keep getting better and better. Im very interested to see where the whole Charlie and Steph angle goes. I could see a double cross in Charlies future, where Steph was playing him the whole time. Im also very interested to see what is up with Cactus Jack. Why does he keep letting himself get beat down and what is the reason for his losing streak. Great Job man.

Paul Heyman drops his headset and enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: As you may have guessed, I am here to announce F' The Mainstream's half of the card for summer Assylum.

In our opener, Christian will have a chance at revenge for last week's assault as he will go one on one with Rhino.

This next match could be aptly described by the term "Clash Of The Titans". Goldberg and Goliath face off to see who is the true powerhouse.

In a true technical display, Chris Benoit will look to even his score with Eddie Guerrero in a Wrestlepalooza rematch.

Kurt Angle will defend the pride of ECW against Brock Lesnar. Angle, of course, one in their last encounter but Brock pinned Angle two weeks ago in a tag match, so, any result is plausible.

Finally, Rob Van Dam and Sabu will represent F' The Mainstream in the inter-promotional tag match. If they win they will face each other in August for the opportunity of a title shot.

And that, my friends, concludes our card.

Bill Goldberg vs. The Hardy Boys

He beatsdown Kurt Angle and grabs a chair to continue the assault. He then drags a limp Angle out of the ring before delivering an F-5 so that Angle's neck lands across the guardrail at ringside.

Joey: Oh my god! Kurt Angle is out! He is out!
Heyman: He could have a broken neck right there Joey.
Taz: He's gonna need some help.
Hogan and Funk come to help Angle to the back.

Despite frequent tagging from the Dudleys and their one man advantage, RVD and Sabu are able to keep control of the match. They seem to co-operate surprisingly well and RVD picks up the pin, after a Five Star Frog Splash, in the fifteenth minute.

Honestly I like the old way better. It had, someway, an ECW FEEL to it. However it is your diary and you can as you please. It is good either way brother. Good show with a good build up to Summer Asylum. To be honest, at this point Im a fan of the Revolution brand more. It just seems to have better storylines going.

Rhino vs. Christian - Rhino all the way baby!

8-Man Battle Royal For The World Television Championship Jericho

Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero

Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Juventud Guerrera

Goldberg vs. Goliath - Not a fan much of either of these guys, but to establish Golith as a real monster he needs a strong victory here.

Steve Austin vs. Rocky - Stunning Steve, Stunning Steve!!

Kurt Angle vs. Brock Lesnar - Lesner needs to win this match to really gain some heel heat as the bain of ECW!

RVD and Sabu vs. Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman - As much as I think RVD and Sabu are more talented than Dreamer and Sandman, I think a match between either Dreamer or Sandman and Raven would be better then Raven vs. RVD or Sabu.

Paul Burchill vs. Raven - I hate pirates!

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW Summer Assylum. We have absolutely smashed the ECW attendance record as 45,000 fans have packed into Madison Square Garden tonight.
Heyman: That's right Joey, I have a feeling this will be the best ECW pay-per-view we've seen yet.
Steph: I agree. Both brands have put out strong cards and I think the action tonight has every chance of surpassing all expectations!

Seeing Stephanie Mcintosh from "Neighbours" anywhere near wrestling, let alone in someone's diary is kinda weird, but it's a good read man :D

Just wish he wasnt a pirate.

Frankly, I'm bored of that gimmick as well. So, change may be in order.

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. The DCU Center is sold out for tonight's show.
Scott Hudson: That's right Don and it's hardly surprising with what's been happening recently. What will happen about the number one contendership? Can Rey Mysterio pull some matches back in the best-of-seven series? Will Stunning Steve Austin really settle for a loss at Summer Assylum due to Rocky's underhanded tactics? So many unanswered questions!
JR: Not only that but there's now yet another reason to stay tuned to Revolution! Stephanie Mcintosh has asked us to tell you that over the course of this month there will be a tournament for a new title exclusive to Revolution, christened the ECW International All Action Championship.
Callis: Wow, that's a mouthful but it perfectly describes the function of the belt. With such great talent as Jushin Lyger, Ultimo Dragon, Yoshihiro Tajiri and Psicosis, it is clear that we need a new title for fast-paced, action-filled wrestling bouts.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall. To my left, from D'loville: D'lo. And, to my right, making his ECW debut: Apocalypse.

Raven: And what do you expect me to do about it? Just back off.

Charlie Pag comes rushing over.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpg

Pag: Hey Paul, he's right. There are for more constructive ways to deal with this little problem than verbally attacking Raven.
Raven: Thank you.
Burchill: (To Pag) Okay Bossman. (To Raven) I'm sorry mate.
Raven: Fine. Don't make the mistake of doing it again.

Callis: Everytime I see those three together it seems slightly more suspicious...
Hudson: I know what you mean but now it's time for a first round match in the tournament you and Jim discussed. Ultimo Dragon versus Jimmy Yang.

Austin: Cactus, I'm sorry I didn't get revenge on Rocky for you last night. But then, that's only because he cheated. So Rocky, I'm not waiting until another pay-per-view in a few weeks time. I'm challenging you to a match tonight. What's more, I'm not leaving this ring until I get response and that response had better be the right one.

Rocky eneters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock.jpg

Rocky: Austin, you're so damn full of yourself but that's gonna end pretty damn quickly. Yes, I'll face you tonight and beat you for a second consecutive night.
Austin: Oh you think so, punk?
Rocky: Oh I know so, ass hole!
The two men go nose to nose and stare each other down.

Callis: Wow, I think we have an impromptu main event.
JR: It sure looks that way.

Stephanie Mcintosh enters the ring looking very happy.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: I have a very important announcement to make and would like to ask Charlie Pag to come out please.

Pag obliges and makes his way to the ring. He kisses Steph on the cheek and picks up a microphone.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpg

Pag: What's up babe?
Steph: Well, I'm not quite sure how to say this.
Pag: lauging Oh come on, now. You can't call me out here and just leave me in suspense.
Steph: Right, okay. I'm pregnant!
Pag looks shocked.
Steph: smiling Isn't it brilliant?
Pag takes Stephanie's microphone from her hand and, to the horror of the crowd, hits her round the face with it. She falls to the mat.

Callis: What the hell is this lunatic thinking? She's a poor, defenceless woman.
Hudson: Oh my god. Can we get some help? Like now. Come on! This is horrible!

As Pag stands over a frightened and hurt Stephanie, Shawn Michaels comes running out to make the save.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels2.jpg

He positions himself between Pag and Steph and checks if she is okay. He then turns to Pag, with a look of pure anger and disdain on his face.

Just before he can pay Pag back for his despicable actions, Paul Burchiil appears from the crowd.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/AAA.jpg

Michaels is just able to get Stephanie to safety before Burchill assaults him violently.
Pag: Get up you bastard! Get up! You want to play the hero but can't take a beating like a man.
Burchill continues to attack Michaels, who is now out on the canvas.
Pag: You see Shawn, you have no place here in ECW. Old, useless has-beens like you are taking opportunities away from talented youngsters like Paul Burchill.

Now, we tried to lead you out of the spotlight graciously. Believe me, we tried. Do you remember? We removed you from the title picture in that triple threat but you weren't prepared to go out quietly were you Shawn? You had to put up a fight. Well, look where it's got you. Let this be a lesson to anyone who stands against me or Paul Burchill.

Then Shawn, and this is where you're really out of line, you involved yourself in my personal business. If I have a falling out with my girlfriend, Stephanie, it's none of your damn business.

Callis: A falling out? He just decked her with a microphone. This man is an evil bastard.

Pag: So, now Shawn, because you won't bow out gracefully we will kick you out forcefully.
Pag drops the mic and joins in with the beatdown. Michaels is left in a pool of his own blood.

Hudson: Oh my god that was horrible!
JR: I hope those two men burn in hell for their actions tonight!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CactusJack.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpg

Austin climbs the turnbuckles to salute the crowd when, out of nowhere, Cactus Jack nails him in the back with a chair. The crowd jeer loudly.

Cactus: Earlier on you said you were sorry that you couldn't get revenge on Rocky for me. Well, guess what, Austin? I don't need anyone to fight my battles for me. Just because I've lost a few matches you think I'm useless. You do, don't you? I know you laugh at me behind my back. I know it Austin. Well, buddy, this is payback.
He continues to assault Austin with the chair.

Hudson: What is he talking about? Austin is his friend he wouldn't laugh at him behind his back.
JR: Yeah, and he's supposed to be Austin's friend.
Callis: Well, this has been a truly shocking edition of Revolution! Unfortunately, we're out of time but I hope you join us next week when we may get some answers.
Hudson: Can someone please take the chair away from that basket case?

Christopher Daniels makes his way to the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChristopherDaniels.jpg

Daniels: You used to call me Christopher Daniels but now you shall address me as Brother Cristoforro. Why? Because three individuals introduced me to the path of enlightenment. They are Brandon, Salvatore and Vito: The Iron Saints.

The Iron Saints join Cristoforro in the ring.

Vito: Thank you my brother. Now, let me explain, we are here in ECW because it is a breeding ground for all things that insult the name of God: sexual objectification, promiscuity, gratuitous violence, foul language and fundamental heresy. We will not stand for this any longer. We shall be the will of the Heavenly Father in a godforsaken environment.

A "Shut The F**K Up" chant begins.

Vito: That is exactly what I am talking about! That is exacttly what we are here to stop.

Chris Hero and Doug Williams make their way to the ring.

Hero: What in the name of Christ are you talking about?

Vito: Filthy, putrid blasphemer. You will be punished for your sinful ways.

All four members of the Iron saints (including Cristoforro) assault Hero and Williams.
A referee enters the ring and an impromptu match begins.

Kurt Angle enters the ring for a shoot promo.

Angle: Brock Lesnar, thanks to you I have a permanent scar on my back. The doctors can make it less obvious but it will never go away and that makes me feel more angry than I ever have in my entire life.

So, Brock I'm challenging you to a match at Heatwave and I'll be damned if you beat me this time.

Lesnar appears at the entrance-way.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrockLesnar.jpg

Lesnar: Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, why on Earth would I want to fight you? I have nothing to prove to you or any of these people. I beat you last Friday and confirmed what I already knew was an undeniable truth: I am better than you and all of ECW. So,Kurt, maybe if you come up with an incentive I'll accept- but it's doubtful.

Benoit: What I want to ask is very simple. At two consecutive pay-per-views Eddie Guerreo and I have faced one another. We have each won once. I merely want a third and final match at Heatwave.

Heyman: Chris, I'll think about it. You two have already taken a lot of pay-per-view time that other guys are after as well. Let's see how it goes.

Benoit: But Paul...

Chris Jericho looks shocked, mouthing "No, you can't do that!"

Sorry I have not been leaving any feedback for the past few days but Ive been busy (stupid life). The PPV was great, and the part where Lesner carved the words into Kurts back was genius. Even though he says he hates ECW, doing that one thing (in my mind anyway) solidified him as an ECW mainstay. Shawn Michaels getting involved in Charlies and Steph's affairs was also a good way to go and could very well elevate Paul Burchhill into a true main event status. One thing that does not make sence to me however is Paul Heyman saying no to Beniot-Gurrerro III. Thats a money match right there brother and if Paul Heyman was anything, he was a creative genius, and he would never pass that match up. Now I could be jumping the gun here and you have big plans for that fued in which case Im sorry for talking out of my ass. Having Juvi go 4 up on Rey was perfect as well, once again setting up Rey as the ultimate underdog (a roll in which he plays perfectly). Im interested in seeing the end of the World Title sit. Please dont do a pregnancy angle. Ive always hated those. :eek: Again great writing and the only thing that is missing are those great Raven promos you use to give. Hope they come back. Great job once again brother!

Sorry I have not been leaving any feedback for the past few days but Ive been busy (stupid life).

No worries, dude. I very much appreciate the feedback you do give.

...He would never pass that match up. Now I could be jumping the gun here and you have big plans for that fued in which case Im sorry for talking out of my ass.

I'm afraid I won't give any hints as to the storyline but, in terms of talking out of your arse, you're definitely not. You're just expressing an opinion and that opinion may just manifest in my diary (who knows? :D ).

Please dont do a pregnancy angle.

I have to say this here and now: A couple of months ago I saw an awesome shoot interview with Raven. Anyway, he made this comment about how everyone who is, or wants to be, a wrestler has their dream angle. He said he loved playing the heel and he got to do the most heel angle he could possibly think of in his Portland Wrestling days. That was dumping a girl at the altar (and that is pretty damn heelish). So, I thought what mine would be and I decided that the most controversial way someone could turn heel is delibrately attacking a pregnant woman (seriously, what kind of bastard would you have to be to do that). Anyway, I'll be honest, that was the main reason behind the pregnancy skit. Also, if a few other references are made to it, I urge you not to despair 'cos there might just be an interesting twist in the tale *winkwink*.

Finally, that thing you said about Revolution being more interesting than FTM is probably correct. I thought it myself, I just didn't want anyone else to notice :p . Anyhow, I think (and hope) that over the course of the next few game weeks that'll change and the shows will be of an equally high standard.

Again, thanks for the comments mate. I really do appreciate them!

ECW Online can report that ECW has made a successful bid to become the parent company of Ring Of Honor. Apparently they have entered into similar discussions with John Zandig in an attempt to gain a similar relationship with Combat Zone Wrestling.

A source involved in ECW management said "We hope that this arrangement genuinely benefits ECW and ROH." Apparently, ideas involving inter-promotional stories have been suggested but not confirmed.


In another story, ECW has made several new signings, most of which are to add to the somewhat below average Tag Team Division. We cannot reveal any names at this time but various teams are expected to debut in the near future.

JR: Also, we will have the other two first round matches of the International All Action Championship Tournament tonight.

The reason why I'm out here is to inform you that, in the absence of Miss Mcintosh, I am using my power as CEO of ECW to assume the position of Revolution headbooker.

Paul Burchill applauds and Pag hands the mic to him.

Burchill: Thank you Pag. Now, Shawn Michaels, there's a little thing called "Heatwave" coming up. So, I'm issuing you with a challenge to a match for the pay-per-view and, seeing as I have the new headbooker standing next to me, I don't think you have much choice in the matter.

Austin: I don't plan on asking any questions. So, I don't need any answers but, god damn it, there's gonna be one hell of an ass kicking. Cactus Jack, I don't care what your reasons were as long as you come down here and take this can of whoop-ass with your name on it.

Cactus Jack appears at the entrance-way.

Cactus: I'll go you one better, Austin, you and me in a match tonight.

Austin: Oh hell yes you dirty son of a bitch.

Cactus: It will be Stunning Steve Austin versus Cactus Jack... and Rocky in a handicap match.

Cactus heads backstage, leaving Austin looking even more frustrated.

Shawn Michaels enters the ring looking slightly distressed.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels2.jpg

Michaels: I really hate to be the one to have to say this but everyone else seems to have turned their back on Steph. The doctors say she sustained a very serious concussion and she won't be cleared to return to work for about a month. As for the baby, I hate to inform you that she... er... she suffered a miscarriage.

I've visited her and expressed sympathies on behalf of each of you. A "Thank You Shawn" chant begins.

She thought you deserved to know and, I have to say, she, although very upset, is handling it very well. If any of you have any personal messages for her send them to ECW via e-mail and we will make sure she gets them.

Burchill runs in to attack Michaels, who looks ready to fight. The two men go nose to nose but Charlie Pag attacks Shawn from behind.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpg

Burchill: I'd stop wasting your time on that cheap little strumpet and concentrate on our match at Heatwave.

Hudson: Strumpet? Do these two men have no respect at all? The poor girl has just gone through an ordeal I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. She's probably very depressed and these two have to make things worse. I hope Shawn kicks Paul Burchill's ass at Heatwave!

Rocky hits a Rock Bottom at 12:37 and lets Cactus Jack pick up the pin
Match Rating: A*

Cactus: I want to explain something to you people. When Rocky attacked me a few weeks ago, he was doing me a favour. He made me realise why I kept losing. He made me realise my weakness and that weakness was trying to do the right thing by you fans. Trying to entertain you is what held me back. When I fight for myself and only for myself I am a better wrestler. So, Rocky thank you.

The two men shake hands as the crowd jeer loudly.

Callis: What a sellout. He sold out his former best friend and these ECW fans.

Very nice, I love how quickly you get these things out, I guess you're a pro by now. Good to see Rhino getting a title, he's always been an ECW favorite of mine, both were very good shows. I really can't wait to see Heatwave, seeing as the effort you go for the TV Shows, I bet you'll pull all the stops out for a PPV.

[Trell]

Some very Nice cards, nice to see that you gave burchill a new gimmick,I keep up the great work.

Heyman: It should be great Joey and 9,900 fans are here to witness it.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall. To my left, from Silicone Valley, Super Nova. And, to my right, from Calgary Alberta Canada, The Canadian Extremist: Lance Storm.

Eddie Guerrero enters the ring.

Eddie: Now, under usual circumstances I would not want to associate myself with Chris Benoit but this is slightly different. Paul, me hermano, please could you come up here, holmes?

Heyman enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: Yes Eddie?

Eddie: Well, Paul E, just as Benoit wants another match, I've got to be honest, holmes, so do I.

Heyman looks sceptical for a moment.

Heyman: You know what? You want it, Chris wants it, these people want it. Benoit versus Guerrero take 3? It's on at Heatwave.

There is a massive pop.

Eddie: Thank you Paul.

Eddie leaves the ring.

Heyman: Not only that. We'll settle the score once and for all. It will be Ultimate Submission!

Now, seeing as I'm here, I have an announcement and I guess, now that Stephanie Mac is in hospital, it goes out to Charlie Pag. First of all, a lot of people have condemned your actions but, because of my professional connection, I will not pass comment. This is purely business and it concerns the number one contendership.

As you know, the tag team match at Summer Assylum did not go according to plan. So, let's mix the teams up. Van Dam has no obvious problem with Tommy Dreamer and the same can be said for Sabu and Sandman. So, I propose we make it RVD and Dreamer versus Sabu and The Sandman at Heatwave. The winners will face each other for a shot at the title.

Vito: I think we made our presence known pretty forcefully last week but, for those of you who don't know us, we are the scourge of heresy. We are The Iron Saints!

Tonight, marks the beginning of our inquisition. From this day, we will rid ECW of all sinners and turn it into a god fearing institution. The first enemy of God on our list is a man who makes a mockery of the son of god and our saviour, Jesus Christ. That man is The Messiah, whose blatant blasphemy deserves the harshest punishment. So, blasphemer, come and subject yourself to justice.

Jay Briscoe: If there is one place on Earth where religious agendas are a waste of goddamn time it's ECW. Here people don't have to be moralistic 'cos they're extreme. Whatever it is that an ECW extremist does, he does it with conviction. So, we don't need the likes of you preaching to us. We're issuing a challenge, two of you versus my brother and me right here, right now.

After the match all four of The Iron Saints assault the Briscoes.

Joey: That was a very impressive debut from The Briscoe Boys and they didn't deserve that four on two attack.
Heyman: Damn right they didn't. They were standing up for the principles of ECW.

Raven enters the ring for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: If a man strives for wealth, he's money-mad; if he keeps it, he's a capitalist; if he spends it, he's a playboy; if he doesn't get it, he's a failure; if he doesn't try to get it, he lacks ambition. If he gets it without working for it, he's a parasite and, if he accumulates it after a lifetime of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life.

What about me? What about Raven? I feel as though I am at a similar crossroads. I am your World Heavyweight Champion yet, in arenas across the country, crowds boo me out of the building. I have to say it has made me question my ambitions. Is it worth being the best if you are not acknowledged by your fellow man?

There might just be a change in the mentality of Raven.

So it is written; so it shall come to pass.
Quote The Raven

Joey: What the hell does that mean?
Taz: Hello, it's Raven. You can never understand the derranged workings of his mind.

Brock Lesnar appears at the entrance-way.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrockLesnar.jpg

Lesnar: Kurt, come on, if I wanted your gold medal I could just come and take it off you now with no need for a match. Fact is, I don't want it. Why would I? It's ten years old Kurt. It no longer means anything and your substandard wrestling is proof of that.

Lesnar heads backstage, leaving Angle looking very angry.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall and for the ECW World Television Championship. To my left, the challenger, from Manhasset New York, The Lionheart Chris Jericho. And, to my right, from Detroit Michigan, he is the ECW World Television Champion, The Man Beast: Rhino.

YES, the Raven promos are back! As for the shows, awesome as always brother. The Iron Sanits could become major players down the line for ECW, possibly holding all ECW's titles! Beniot - Gurrerreo 3 is going to get you an A+ rating, no way around that. And the fact that its an ultimate submission match is the iceing on the cake. I wonder what Angle is going to have to do to get Brock back into the ring with him. Maybe a loser leaves town match ? But why would ou want to get rid of either guy I ask myself. Christian & Chris Jericho, trust me they have great chemistry and will pull out great matches for you, they did for me. I take it Charlie P is you. Well either way he is turning out to be one evil F*ck! Love that storyline and glad you ended the pregnency storyline quickly, but I do understand why you did it. F' The Mainstream was a stronger show this week however, even though you had all the major stars on Revolution. Great job on two more great shows!

Burchill applauds Pag.

Pag: Now, as far as tonight is concerned, I'm making two Heatwave warm up matches. Firstly, Paul Burchill will face Stevie Richards.

Burchill nods his head and laughs.

Pag: And Shawn Michaels, as much as you don't belong here, even you deserve a warmup. So, in the main event, it will be Shawn Michaels versus Frankie Kazarian and Michael Shane.

Callis: How is that fair? Michaels has to face two guys.
JR: I guess when you're the boss you don't have to be fair.

Cactus Jack hands the mic to Rocky.

Rocky: Now, hang on a minute. You lost to Burchill in a triple threat last month, I beat you at Summer Assylum and Cactus and I destroyed you last week. Is that three consecutive losses Austin? Congratulations on a marvellous hat-trick.

Heyman: Are you crazy? I want to see Lesnar versus Angle at Heatwave as much as anyone but I'm not risking the future of ECW on it!

Angle: But Paul I won't lose.

Heyman: I don't care if Lesnar only has one chance in a million of winning, I'm still not risking the whole company on it. I'm sorry Kurt but this is just thoughtless of you. You're gonna have to find another way.

Rhino enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Rhyno.jpg

Rhino: Paul, I'm sorry to get you back down to the ring again but I am so pissed off about last week and I'm not leaving 'til something is done about it!

Heyman again makes his way to the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: Rhino I sympathise, I really do and I'm willing to give you whatever match you want at Heatwave but there is a problem. You probably want to get revenge on Jericho and Christian and also get the TV Title back but I can only let you have one match.

Rhino looks thoughtful.

Heyman: So, Man Beast, what's it going to be?

Rhino: You know what? Just one match suits me fine. It'll be me versus Chris Jericho versus Christian in a Triangle Match for the World TV Title.

There is a huge pop.

Joey: Wow, that's genius. That means he can get revenge on both of them and win the title all in one match.
Taz: True, Joey, but you have to believe that it will basically be a handicap match.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall. To my left, from Calgary Alberta Canada, The Canadian Extremist Lance Storm. And, to my right, from Battle Creek Michigan, The Whole F**kin' Show Rob Van Dam.

Raven enters the ring for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: A child's life is like a piece of paper, upon which every passerby leaves a mark. What about me? What about Raven? My birth was a caesarian inflicted upon the womb of dysfunction. Never once in my life have I felt like I have belonged. Broken homes, broken relationships and broken dreams have all been contributing factors to the warped individual you see before you. But today that changes.

Today, I reform myself. Today, I redeem myself. Today I renounce my weakness and indignity. You see, I belong here in ECW and I hope you fans can forgive me for previous tresspasses because I am, truly, a changed man.

Goliath runs in and floors Raven with a Big Boot.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheGiant.jpg

Goliath: You say all passersby leave a mark Raven? How's that for a mark? You see, I don't care if you want to turn into a little kiss ass. What I do care about is that belt around your waste and, at Heatwave, I'm gonna take it from you.

He picks Raven up and Chokeslams him.

Goliath: Sweet dreams champ.

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. The Spokane Arena is completely sold out for the show.
Hudson: And I bet the crowd is dying to see the action, like I am. Tonight, Tommy Dreamer faces Andrew Martin and The Sandman faces Bob Sapp in order to warm up for the inter-promotional tag team match at Heatwave.
JR: Also, Scott, don't forget that the second semi-final of the International All Action Championship Tournament takes place tonight.
Hudson: Oh, how could I?

Jeff Jarrett is in the ring.

Callis: Wow, this guys on fire.

Austin Aries and Chad Collyer appear at the entrance-way.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/AustinAries.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChadCollyer.jpg

Aries: For those of you that don't recognise us we are Double Shot, the Ring Of Honor World Tag Team Champions, and we are issuing a challenge to The Dudley Boys at Heatwave for their ECW Tag Titles. Let's see who the better promotion is.

They leave as quickly as they entered.

Callis: Wow, that's huge news!

Backstage, Steve Austin sneaks up on Rocky.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock-1.jpg

Austin places a cloth under Rocky's nose, causing him to pass out. He then drags him out of shot.

Rocky is standing on a chair, tied to a rafter by his neck, as if about to be hanged. Steve Austin steps into shot.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock-1.jpg

Austin: Drastic times call for drastic measures, Rocky. I hope this proves I'm not f**king about.

Now, in my hand I hold a contract stating that we are going to have a barbed wire match at Heatwave. I've signed, so, all I need is your signature. How about it Rocky, or do I have to kick the chair out from under you?

Rocky: You don't have the guts. You're not that stupid, you'll be tried for murder.

Austin: Now, Rocky, I'm not gonna kill you. I'm just gonna leave you hanging by your neck long enough to cripple you. As for not having the guts, you've got your eyes locked on the eyes of the world's craziest son of a bitch. Do you really want to put it to the test?

The camera cuts back to ringside.

Callis: sounding panicked Oh my god. We apologise to those of you who may have been offended by those actions but this is ECW. Is someone going to go and stop that?
Hudson: How can we? We don't know where the hell they are!
JR: There's got to be something we can do. This could be terrible.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock-1.jpg

Austin: How about it Rocky? You and me in a barbed wire match.

Rocky: Read my lips "NOT GOING TO HAPPEN".

Austin: Well, that's a shame.

Austin goes to kick the chair.

Rocky: Oh Jesus, wait!

Austin: Well...

Rocky stares at him.

Austin: You're stalling, son.

He goes to kick the chair again.

Rocky: Okay, okay. You and me at Heatwave. Okay, just let me down.

Austin: Good to hear, if you'll just sign this.

Rocky signs the contract.

Austin: Thank you, son.

Breaking his end of the bargain, Austin kicks the chair out from under Rocky. However, the rope immediately snaps and it becomes apparent that it never would have taken his wait.

Austin: You actually thought I was gonna hang you? You stupid son of a bitch!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpg

Pag: Ladies and gentlemen... the official Heatwave card according to the Revolution brand.

The ROH tag champions, Double Shot, will face the ECW tag champions, The Dudley Boys in an inter-promotional showdown.

Rey Mysterio Jr. and Juventud Guerrera will face off in the sixth match of their best-of-seven series.

Due to the events that have just taken place, I can confirm that Steve Austin will face Rocky in a Barbed Wire Match!

Shawn Michaels will finally feel the pain he deserves when the man beside me, Paul Burchill, physically destroys him.

Finally, two of our competitors, The Sandman and Tommy Dreamer, will take part in an inter-promotional tag team match that was suggested by Paul Heyman. RVD and Tommy Dreamer will face Sabu and The Sandman.

As for tonight, Shawn Michaels, you're up next and you're facing the Jung Dragons.

Pag and Burchill stay ringside for the match.

Shawn Michaels gets the upset victory with a Flying Elbow at 14:17
Match Rating: A*

Pag and Burchill attack Michaels after the match.

Callis: This is just cowardly. Michaels has competed in two handicap matches in as many weeks and he gets assaulted almost every time. How is he going to be in shape for Heatwave?

Backstage, Austin sneaks up on Cactus Jack and uses the same cloth to subdue him.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CactusJack.jpg

Austin then drags Cactus out in front of the crowd and into the ring. He grabs a chair and positions it around Cactus Jack's ankle. To make sure he can't fight back he ties him up in the ring ropes and then slaps his face to revive him.

Austin: Now, you backstabbing bastard, I will get my match with you tonight or you will have your ankle broken. It's your choice and, believe me, I'm not bluffing this time!

Cactus: sounding scared Okay just take the chair off my ankle!

Austin: Can we get a ref down here?

Referee Jim Molineaux comes running down to the ring.

Austin: Okay good.

Austin ignores the deal he made and stamps on the chair. Cactus Jack writhes in pain and he is clearly injured. Austin removes the chair and the bell rings.

Both shows were awesome brother. I love how you are making Austin out to be a sick bastard. Looks like Pagliero is going to have some catching up to do. Also I love this video and please drop me a PM to tell me how you did it. The words match up so perfectly to what you have going on I would think you put them in yourself. Great shows and Heatwave is gonna rock!

Vito: This week in our inquisition we come to a man who takes the Lord's name in vain with such regularity that he truly deserves his punishment. All one ever hears from this man are profanities and the glorification of violence. So, Joey Styles, come and subject yourself to justice.

Joey: Screw that, I'm the announcer. I'm not going up there.

Cristoforro and Brandon drag Joey into the ring. Taz follows them.

Taz: Hey ass holes, if you want Joey you're gonna have to go through me!

Christian: Chris, what are we going to do? We have to face Rhino in a triple threat.

Jericho: Yeah, I'm well aware of that.

Christian: And how are you not worried?

Jericho: Christian, stop panicking, there's two of us and one of him. He hasn't got a chance.

Rhino attacks both men with a chair, leaving them down and out.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Rhyno.jpg

Heyman: Oh, I think he has a chance. How are you guys by the way?
Taz: Yeah, not too bad.
Joey: I'm fine, as long as The Iron Saints get the mother and father of all ass kickings tommorrow night.
Heyman: I think The Acolytes will make sure of that.

Joey: That's right; it's finally here. Welcome to the biggest wrestling spectacle of the summer, ECW Heatwave. I'm Joey Styles and alongside me is the headbooker of F' The Mainstream, Paul Heyman, and, in place of Stephanie Mcintosh, Don Callis.
Heyman: I can't wait for things to kick off Joey. You can feel the electricity here in the ECW Arena, which by the way is sold out.
Callis: That's right Paul, I have goosebumps! You know, it's strange, as bad as I feel for Stephanie Mac, I'm glad that I get such a good seat this time around.
Joey: I guess that's understandable. After all, this is one of the biggest ECW shows of the year. Now, I hope you guys don't mind, I'm gonna have to send it down to Bob Artese because I just can't take the suspense!

Bob Artese: Welcome to ECW Heatwave!

There is a massive pop.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is a First Blood Match. That means that the first competitor to draw blood on an opponent will win the match for his team.
Now, the competitors are as follows. To my left, making their ECW debut as a tag team, Farooq and Bradshaw: The Acolytes. And, to my right, representing the most dominant group of youngsters ECW has ever seen, Vito and Salvatore: The Iron Saints.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RonSimmons.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Bradshaw.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/VitoThomaselli.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/SalvatoreThomaselli.jpg
The match is dominated by The Acolytes, who use various weapons to attack the saints. However, Brandon and Cristoforro interfere and restrain Farooq, allowing Vito and Salvatore to draw blood from Bradshaw using a staple gun.
Match Rating: A

Vito signals for a microphone as the other three Iron Saints assault The Acolytes
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/VitoThomaselli.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/SalvatoreThomaselli.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrandonThomaselli.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChristopherDaniels.jpg

Vito: We shall not rest until our inquisition is complete and it shall not be complete until we have brought every sinner in ECW to justice. The Acolytes were just two names on a very long list.

The assault continues to jeers from the crowd.

Joey: Damn it. One of these days someone is going to shut Vito's big mouth.

"ECdub" chants are heard throughout the entire match and it is clear the fans are siding with The Dudleys. After a fairly open contest, The Dudleys win with a 3D through a table at 12:52
Match Rating: B+

Heyman: I think that conclusively proves that ECW is the premier wrestling company in the world today.
Joey: Aah, but which is the premier ECW brand?
Heyman and Callis stare at each other for a moment.
Joey: Haha, too easy.

Goliath is backstage for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheGiant.jpg

Goliath: Raven, I know you saw what I did to Steve Corino last night. I told you it would pale in comparison with what I'm going to do to you and I wasn't lying. You see, tonight, I'm gonna get my hands around your little throat and squeeze until I here a snap. More than that, Raven, I'm gonna enjoy it when I break your neck.

Sixth Match In The Best-Of-Seven Series
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ReyMysterioWCW.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JuviGuerreraMask.jpg
The match is very open with both competitors getting an equal amount of offence. It is clear that, over the course of the series, they have earned a great respect for one another. Eventually, Rey Mysterio Jr. wins with a West Coast Pop at 17:29
Match Rating: A* (3-3 in the series)

Joey: Wow, that makes it 3-3 and it's all gonna come down to a definite final.
Callis: Just goes to show, Joey, how evenly matched these two are.

Raven is backstage for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: The inevitability of death is terrible enough, but worse still is death with time to spare, time in which all the happiness that was yours and all the happiness that might have been yours becomes clear to you. You see with utter lucidity all that you are losing. The sight brings on an oppressive sadness that no water about to drown you can match. The feeling is truly unbearable. What about me? What about Raven? It is this that has made me consider my previous transgressions.

I cannot change the past but I can shape the future and I will shape a better image of myself from here on. Goliath, you can speak with all the vulgarity you wish but, nevertheless, I will beat you tonight. Moreover, I believe that I will do so with the blessing of the ECW fans because they shall see my effort to reform myself.

So it is written; so it shall come to pass.
Quote The Raven
Nevermore

Chants of "Raven" can be heard around the arena as fans seem to be warming to the new outlook displayed by the World Champion.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ECWWorldTVTitle.jpg
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Rhyno.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Christian.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisJericho.jpg
The match progresses as expected, with Jericho and Christian co-operating to take on Rhino. In the fifteenth minute, Jericho breaks the deal with Christian and applies The Walls Of Jericho. However, while Jericho is still applying the hold, Rhino hits the Gore on him and gets the 1...2...3.
Match Rating: A*

Joey: Gore! Gore! Gore! Rhino is The World Television Champion for the second time in three weeks and, finally, justice has been carried out.

Rhino goes into the crowd to celebrate as the camera cuts backstage to Eddie Guerrero.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/EddieGuerrero.jpg

Eddie: Chris, tonight's the night, Holmes. Thirty whole minutes of intense wrestling. So, me vito loco, are you really ready? Are you really ready to take on a second generation wrestler like me? We have wrestled before in Japan and Mexico, even here in ECW but never in an Ultimate Submission and that, me hermano, is going to work in my advantage. Get ready to feel the worst pain of your life.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JushinThunderLyger.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Tajiri.jpg
The match is a fine technical display, with neither man gaining an obvious advantage. However, Yoshihiro Tajiri wins with a Buzzsaw Kick at 16:58
Match Rating: A

Kurt Angle is backstage for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/KurtAngle.jpg

Angle: Brock, I finally got you to agree to my match on the condition that I'd put my career on the line. But, you see, that doesn't matter because I'm not going to lose. So, prepare yourself for a beating, the likes of which have never been seen in a professional wrestling ring.

In an arena in New England they may support your anti-ECW tyrades. But, this isn't New England; this is my hometown of Pittsburgh; I am Kurt Angle and you... will tap out!

Ultimate Submission Match
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisBenoit.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/EddieGuerrero.jpg
The match is incredibly even with both men tied on four submissions as the twenty ninth minute rolls around. Chris Benoit goes to apply the Sharpshooter but Guerrero reverses it into a Laso From El Paso. 29:38... Benoit is writhing in pain. 29:42... Benoit edges towards the ropes. 29:48... Benoit reaches out for the bottom rope. 29:50... Eddie pulls him away. 29:54... Benoit won't tap. 29:56... Eddie wrenches the hold in harder. 29:57... still no tap. 29:58... Chris Benoit raises his hand as if to tap. 29:59... his hand is still raised. 30:00... Benoit taps out.
Match Rating: A*

Joey: That was so unbelievably close. That has to hurt twice as bad if you're Benoit, to endure all that pain for so long but, in the end, it's for nothing.
Heyman: You may have spoken too soon Joey.

Bob Artese: Referee John Finnegan has decided that Chris Benoit tapped out after the time limit had expired. As such, he has decided upon sudden death. That means the first man to gain a submission over his opponent will be declared the winner.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisBenoit.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/EddieGuerrero.jpg
Both men are physically exhausted but still manage to put on a great technical display. In the end, Chris Benoit wins with a Crossface at 9:17
Match Rating: A*

Joey: Wow, that's a match of the year candidate right there. That was incredible!
Heyman: I'm in shock, Joey, they gave it absolutely everything.

Brock Lesnar enters the ring for his match but picks up a microphone.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrockLesnar.jpg

Lesnar: Ladies and gentleman, allow me to welcome you to the last ever professional match of Kurt Angle.

Joey: What a jackass!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/KurtAngle.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrockLesnar.jpg
The match is very open and, surprisingly, rather brawl-based. Kurt Angle wins with an Ankle Lock at 18:29
Match Rating: A*

After the match, Kurt Angle grabs a small knife that was concealed under the ring. He proceeds to carve the letters "ECW" into Brocks back.
The crowd go crazy as Angle smears Lesnar's blood across his face.

Joey: Oh my god! That was one of the craziest things I've ever seen in a wrestling ring.
Callis: And that really means something when it comes from an ECW announcer!

Paul Burchill is backstage with Charlie Pag.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpg

Burchill: I've just spoken to him, Bossman.

Pag: And?

Burchill: He says he's got it covered and that it's all planned.

Pag: Good. I love it when a plan comes to fruition.

Joey: What the hell was that about?
Callis: If you were an announcer on Revolution, you'd be used to that kind of thing.

Barbed Wire Match
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock.jpg
The match is very open. Rocky clearly wants revenge on Austin for his sick actions on Revolution. The action goes back and forth as both men's skin is ripped and scarred by the barbed wire. Cactus Jack comes down to the ring on crutches in the tenth minute. The match continues to swing back and forth but, then, Cactus nails Austin in the back of the head with one of his crutches. Rocky capitalises and hits the Rock Bottom for the victory.
Match Rating: A*

After the match, it is clear that Austin is seriously hurt. An EMT team come to the ringside aisle, strap him to a stretcher and start to take him to the back.
In a shocking turn of events, The Rock and Cactus forcefully eject the EMTs and pour gasoline over a vulnerable Austin.

Rocky: Hey, Cactus, isn't this show called Heatwave?

Cactus: It sure is Rocky.

Rocky: Oh, how fitting.

They set the stretcher (and Austin) on fire and push him through the entrance-way caging and into a mass of electrical equipment.
A huge series of electrical explosions occur as the crowd chants "Holy Sh*t"

Joey: Oh my god! Kurt Angle's makeshift surgery just got challenged in the sick stakes by Rocky and Cactus' impromptu pyrotechnics!
Callis: Jesus, can we get some help out here now? Like, right now! He needs medical attention damn it.

An EMT team and, seemingly, half the locker room turns out to check on Austin's condition. He is wheeled off to hospital as the wrestlers and fans look on in disbelief.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels2.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpg
Pag's constant interference is a great hinderance to Michaels but, nevertheless, the match is surprisingly open. In the fourteenth minute Raven runs in an DDTs Michaels. Burchill capitalises for the pin.
Match Rating: A*

Raven picks up a mic as Burchill and Pag applaud. Conversely, the crowd boo loudly.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Raven: It is often the case that the real tragedies in life occur in such an inarticulate manner that they hurt one by their crude violence, their absolute incoherence, their absurd want of meaning, their entire lack of style. What about me? What about Raven? Allow me articulate my actions properly.

I cannot believe how naive each and every one of you is. You honestly believed I was going to reform my character. Well, denial is the face that fallacy met and I will not change!

Why did I choose to allign myself with these two men? Because I realise where the real power in ECW is. It's not in the demands of you fans but in the proclemations of Charlie Pag and the physical support that Paul Burchill provides them with. So, I urge you to look at the most powerful force in professional wrestling: the man who controls the fate of ECW, the most dominant young talent in wrestling history and The World Heavyweight Champion. We are the undeniable power!

So it is written; so it has come to pass

The match is very even. All competitors keep an eye on their partners as well as their opponents and wisely so. In the fourteenth minute, Tommy Dreamer hits a Spicolli Driver on Sabu and gets the pin while RVD holds The Sandman back.
Match Rating: A*

Joey: It's finally settled!

After the match, RVD and Tommy Dreamer hug in celebration as the fans trade chants of "RVD" and "He's Hardcore". Then, RVD floors Dreamer with a spinkick.

RVD: Just don't think you'll win the Number One Contender's Match!

Callis: Wow, RVD's all business.
Heyman: I would be too if I'd been through all he has just to get a title shot.

Bob Artese: Tonight's Main Event is one fall and for The ECW World Heavyweight Championship. To my left, the challenger, tipping the scales at an incredible 500lbs and standing at seven feet tall: Goliath. And, to my right, accompanied by Charlie Pag and Paul Burchill, he is The ECW World Heavyweight Champion: Raven.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheGiant.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg
What would have been a match stacked highly against Raven actually become a match in his favour, thanks to the constant interference from Pag and Burchill. In the end, Burchill and Raven hit a Double DDT and Raven gets the pin at 14:06
Match Rating: A*

Joey: Oh man, what sort of hell will be unleashed on ECW now that these three are working together? That's all we have time for, I hope you enjoyed ECW Heatwave.

This is war dude!! But im loving the diary, The Eddy segments make you realise what we are all missing by his loss.

Great PPV brother. Honestly I was expecting somebody from the outside to join up with Charlie and Burchill, but Raven was a good choice. Some truly sick ECW moments at the PPV as well, with the carving of ECW into Lesners back and the setting fire to Austin. I dont think he will be stunning anymore huh? Great show and it will be interesting to see where you go from here!

[Nevermore]

The Eddy segments make you realise what we are all missing by his loss.

Yeah man, he was in one of my favourite ECW matches of all time. It was him versus Dean Malenko and it was their first match in the States for ages ('cos they'd been touring Japan). It was one of the best technical wrestling displays I've ever seen - truly incredible. Moreover, the crowd, who are known as being the most ruthless, loud and bloodthirsty fans in wrestling, fell completely silent and merely applauded great reversals etc. Seriously, it was f**king amazing! He was a phenomenal wrestler.

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. The Resch Center here in Green Bay is completely sold out.
Hudson: No doubt, Don, after all, we know for a fact that two titles will be defended tonight. Yoshihiro Tajiri will make the first ever defence of the ECW International All Action Title and Rhino will make his first defence of the World TV Title.

Pag: Tonight, a new era for ECW begins. An era controlled by the three men you see before you. Just to illustrate that point, I'm making a match for the ECW World Tag Team Titles. The current champions, The Dudleys, will face Raven and Paul Burchill.

Pag hands the mic to Burchill.

Burchill: Last night you saw what we did to both Shawn Michaels and Goliath. We destroyed a man who has been at the top of ECW for nearly ten years and then toppled a five hundred pound giant. If anyone stands in our way the same will happen to you!

The mic is passed to Raven.

Raven: Men of the noblest dispositions think themselves happiest when others share their happiness with them. What about me? What about Raven? Personally, I'm happy not being noble because there are only two men in the world whose opinion I value. They are standing next to me.

A "Speak In English" chant begins.

Raven: Tonight, these two men and I will firmly cement our place in history when Burchill and I become your Tag Team Champions.

So it is written; so it shall come to pass.

Rocky: Do you feel happy Cactus?

Cactus: I sure do Rocky.

Rocky: Cactus, do you feel as though a great weight has been lifted from your shoulders?

Cactus: I sure do Rocky.

Rocky: And why is that?

Cactus: Because on Friday night we beat the holy hell out of Stunning Steve Austin.

Rocky: Oh hell yeah, we did. He is in hospital and he won't be showing his face around here for a long time. So, we thought we should let you fans know that the legend of Steve Austin is dead!

Heyman: I'm not surprised, seeing as we've got the fallout from Heatwave and Burchill and Raven's first title defence to witness. Also, something I'm really excited about, we have two japanese workers debuting tonight.
Joey: Oh yeah, Paul E, didn't you mention bringing in a new division.
Heyman: Quite possibly, Joey. You see, tonight's opening matchup is the prototype for an idea I've put together.
Taz: And that idea would be?
Heyman: Making F' The Mainstream the place where great foreign wrestlers, who would otherwise be unknown in the US, can come and showcase their skills.
Joey: That sounds like a great idea to me.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall and fought between two debuting foreign stars. To my left, from Michinoku Japan, Tiger Mask IV. And, to my right, also hailing from the Michinoku Region, The Great Sasuke.

Vito: The Iron Saints' inquisition continues. Tonight, a man, who has offended God by instructing and helping his brothers to commit grave acts of violence, will be punished. Spike Dudley, come and subject yourself to justice.

Taz: Spike? They're only saying that so they don't have to take on the awesome team of D-Von and Bubba.

With all three members of The Dudleys now present, The Iron Saints decide to vacate the ring.

Bubba: You jackoffs have been running your mouth for over a month, spouting anti-ECW bullsh*t. Quite frankly, my brothers and I, as loyal ECW wrestlers, are f**king sick of it! And seeing as we lost our belts this week, we're doubly pissed off! So, we don't care if the three of us have to fight all four of you, at Anarchy Rulz we're gonna shut you up once and for all because we are The D-D-D-DD-D-DD...

D-Von slaps him.

Bubba: Dudleys!

D-Von: Oh my brother, testify!

Jericho: As you may have seen, a tragedy occured at Heatwave! I never should have lost my belt.

Chritian: And I never should have been in that match in the first place.

Jericho: So, we are, understandably, very goddamn angry! So...

Kurt Angle interrupts them.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/KurtAngle.jpg

Angle: Oh, for crying out loud, shut up, shut up, shut up! These people came here to see a wrestling show not listen to you bitch and whine. What's the matter? Did Rhino not play fair in the match where you had a two on one advantage?

Jericho goes to speak.

Angle: Oh, I wasn't finished. I just had to kick the crap out of Brock Lesnar for being an ass. Don't make me do the same to you!.

Jericho and Christian see red and attack Angle brutally.

Chris Benoit comes running in.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisBenoit.jpg

He quickly takes out Christian and Jericho and sends them running to the back. He then checks on Angle's condition.
Kurt thanks him and they too head backstage.

Pag: I want to make this perfectly clear right now, it does not matter if the bWo have reformed. We are still the most powerful force in professional wrestling.

Pag hands the mic to Burchill.

Burchill: Blue boys, if you try anything, and I mean anything, we will forcefully eject you from the building.

The mic is passed to Raven.

Raven: Nothing in progression can rest on its original plan. One may as well think of rocking a grown man in the cradle of an infant. So, yes it is true that we may need to adjust our plans to deal with the bWo but they are only the most minor of hinderances.

Not really as of yet. He might become a member but I'll leave you to find out :D. Currently they both just have the same goal: getting rid of me, Burchill and Raven.

As far as him working well with the bWo, he would. As much as I love Stevie Richards (and I really do - he was one of the best ECW guys) he was always a bit of an HBK wannabe. Just look at those two pictures:

Taz: ...F' The Mainstream. 9,700 fans are here in the Veterans Auditorium.
Heyman: That's got to be because of the great card we have lined up. Tonight, the Tag Titles will be defended. Plus, the F' The Mainstream Super Juniors Division will debut tonight with a lucha libre rules six-man tag.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is an F' The Mainstream Super Junior match. It will be fought under lucha libre rules and,therefore, is best two out of three falls. To my right, the team of Tiger Mask IV, Jody Fleisch and Teddy Hart. And, to my right, The Great Sasuke, Chessman and Ozz.

Sasuke: I Great Sasuke. These be my disciples: Chessman, Ozz, Cuervo, Espiritu and Escoria. We are The Cult Of Sasuke and we be here to bring MAYHEM!

Benoit gets the Crossface on Christian. Angle then applies the Ankle Lock so that both holds are locked in simultaneously.

Seriously, I laughed so much when I read that :D. But, don't worry, it's merely a way of introducing them...

To be honest this show did not live up to your usual high standards.

In all honesty, I kinda thought that too when I was writing it. It's odd because it's getting easier and easier to write Revolution storylines but harder and harder to do te same for F' The Mainstream.

No Charlie, Raven & Burchill? They shoud be fuming after what the bWo did to them!

Oh believe me they are. But Burchill is no longer active on F' The Mainstream. Because he lost the tag titles, he is back to being a solely Revolution worker.

Pag: Okay, you've got it. You can have a shot at the tag titles on one condition.

Guido: Name it.

Burchill: That you and your bodyguards here destroy the bWo.

Guido: You have my word. Tonight, Stevie will sleep with the fishes.

Sal: Boss, I don't think he wants to know about Stevie's sex life.

Little Guido signals for Big Sal to bend down to his level. When he does, Guido slaps him.

Guido: What have I told you about talking? Just stand there and look threatening. My apologies Carlo.

Pag: That's fine. Do we have a deal?

Guido: We sure do. It's been a pleasure doing business with you.


Callis: Well, it looks like we have a match for the Tag Team Titles tonight.

Stevie: Hey, dude, I have an offer for ya. Basically, we have a tag match against the F.B.I. tonight and, frankly, there's a very good chance that we're gonna get our asses kicked by five guys. That's not even including Burchill and Raven.

Me and the boys in blue have seen you over the past couple of weeks and been impressed. So, we were hoping you could give us some back up later tonight.

Super Dragon looks at Stevie. He looks at the crowd and then shakes Stevie's hand.

Stevie: Yeah, that makes it only seven on four!

Hudson: He seems oddly optimistic.
Callis: Either that or he knows there is nothing he can do to get out of a beating and has just ceased to care.
JR: Well, either way, that's not until later. Up next is a number one contender's match for the International All Action Title.

Charlie Pag is backstage with a microphone.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpg

Pag: Let me clear up this All Action Championship situation. Since neither man won the match outright, at Anarchy Rulz there will be a Triangle Match for the title.

Now, we are still in need of a challenger for Raven. Who will wrestle for the World Championship? Oh, I know, Shawn Michaels. So, good luck Shawn because it's gonna be right up Raven's street. It's gonna be a good, old fashioned Barbed Wire Death Match.

Callis: Wow, we're going to see a Death Match at Anarchy Rulz.
Hudson: That plays right into Raven's hands. Michaels is a technically based wrestler not a hardcore brawler. That could get very ugly indeed.

The H8 Club clearly take exception to these cowardly tactics. After the match they assault Shane and Kazarian and hit them with a Double Conchairto so that their heads collide, sandwiched between two chairs. Nate Hatred then grabs a bag of tacs and spreads them across the ring. He then hits a Decapitator on Shane, who his driven into the tacs. Gage follows suit and powerbombs Kazarian into them.

Then, AJ Styles comes running to the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/AJStyles.jpg

He hits a Springboard Dropkick on both Lyger and Tajiri. A three-way brawl ensues that is eventually broken up by officials.

During the match, The Blue Guy, Super Dragon and Traci do their best to guard the ring from outside interference. However, Palumbo, Big Sal and DeVito prove to much for them. Before they can make an impact on the match, though, Shawn Michaels comes running in and Super Kicks all three. The bWo get the win when Stevie hits the Stevie Kick on Tony Mamaluke at 14:06

With the help of Shawn Michaels, the Blue World Order prove superior to all of their adversaries and clear the ring.

Shawn Michaels picks up a mic
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels3.jpg

Michaels: Oh yeah, baby, the bWo and Shawn Michaels just cleared the house again. Raven, Pag and Burchill keep talking about being "unstoppable" but, from where I'm sitting, the only unstoppale force is the Blue World Order and yours truly.

Now, The Showstopper has a very important announcement to make. The Mac is back!

Stephanie Mcintosh makes her return and enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Michaels and the bWo hold Charlie Pag upright, keeping his arms behind his back so that he can't struggle.
Stephanie Mcintosh then slaps the taste out of his mouth!

Steph: I'm back and raring to go. The horrible ordeal that this bastard put me through made me realise that I who my friends are!

Oh, and Raven, at Anarchy Rulz, Shawn Michaels is going to kick your ass!

As the crowd is loudly chanting "bWo", a huge figure comes running to the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Abyss2.jpg

Callis: Oh my god, it's Abyss. The Monster Abyss is here.

Most of the bWo and Stephanie are able to escape the ring. However, Stevie and Shawn stay to fight.
Abyss flattens them both with big right hands. He then hits a Black Hole Slam on each of them.

After the assault, he leaves with Pag, Burchill and Raven, who laugh their way back to the locker room.

Hudson: The Monster is working for Pag! The odds stacked against the bWo and Shawn Michaels just got a whole lot taller.

I like Abyss in Charlies little group. Also the fact that Super Dragon joined the bWo is really cool. Did you mod that pic somehow or does he wear a blue costume once in a while. A good show brother, I really like the dynamic between the bWo w/ Shawn Michaels and Charlies group. However I feel that this rivalry would be better cross brand. Now I know you already have this all planned out, but if you ask me, Im not digging the different brands. I think it would open up a whole world of possibilities if the brands went away. Imagine Beniot vs. AJ Styles or any of the other possible matches that could come of this. Just a thought brother! Great show!

I think it would open up a whole world of possibilities if the brands went away.

I had the same thought myself but I think I have some plans to redress the imbalances. At this stage I need two brands because of my huge amount of enhancment talents. As for the Super Dragon pic, I was lucky enough to have one of him wearing blue :D.

Dude, i like it, but theres a couple of guys who i feel you shouldnt have gone for, although we are all partial to do it,

such as AJ Styles, HBK, JR. Its just in risk of losing the ECW feel if you see what i mean.

[Nevermore]

That's very true. Shawn Michaels, I don't think is too much of an issue because in the gameworld he jumped ship to ECW back in '97 I think (and yes that means there was never a Montreal Screwjob - Bret is still wrestling for WWE).

I just don't like two men to an announce table personally. Joey Styles was great on his own and I like a 3man setup. I've been trying to replace JR for ages but, for some ridiculous reason, Joel Gertner has declined negotiations twice.

Cheers for your two cents though dude because trying to keep the "ECW feel" is my main objective.

They proceed to tie up LA Park in ceremonial black ropes and then kneel down in a circle around him.
The Great Sasuke makes a gesture with his arms and the arena lights dim.

Taz: Woah.

He then places his hand over LA Park's face as if extracting some sort of essence from within him.

Tiger Mask IV and Teddy Hart run to the ring.

Tiger Mask takes out The Great Sasuke as Teddy Hart tries to battle the rest of the cult. After being hit by a dropkick by Tiger Mask, Sasuke decides it is best to vacate the ring and he motions for his followers to do the same. They quickly oblige.

Taz: Man, that was freaky. I don't know what they were planning to do there and I'm kinda happy not knowing.

Paul Heyman drops his headset and enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: I'm afraid it's passed the point of professional courtesy. I have to speak my mind. What is happening on the Revolution Brand is frankly ridiculous.

Charlie Pag has taken it upon himself to single out certain wrestlers and treat them like dirt. In my eyes, that is unacceptable behaviour for a person in power. So, I have a message for Shawn Michaels, the bWo and anyone on the Revolution brand that feels disenfranchised or misrepresented. That is that we, at F' The Mainstream, will welcome you with open arms if you decide to change your fortunes.

[The Stallion]

The whol thing with Sasuke reminds me of The Ministry back when it first started. I like it. At first it seemed that they were going to be a comedy group, but this show portrayed them as a force to be reconded with in the Super Juniors division. Something is going to happen between Jericho and Christian at any moment now. Question about your game world. I noticed that someone mentioned Samoa Joe in an earlier post. Is there a TNA in this world? I know Jarrett is in ECW (Why, I dont know) so I doubt it. Also is WCW still going? I know you said you did not want to go into the rest of the game world, however it would be very interesting to see the landscape of the wrestling busniess in your world right now. Later brother!

[Nevermore]

It's roughly outlined on the first page of the diary but things that you may find intereting are:


TNA never opened to begin with. Even when I updated the data to TEW 2005, I decided against including TNA because so much of their talent pool was still employed by WWF/E and ECW.
WCW were bought out back in 2000. Most of their guys stayed with WWE but ECW signed three notables - The Giant (now Goliath), Goldberg and Hogan (who refused to work for Vince).
I took over ECW from Heyman in '99 (you could do that in TEW 2004).
Some guys never left ECW (eg. Steve Austin, Juvi, Rey Mysterio, Benoit, Guerrero - there may well be others you notice).
Kurt Angle signed with ECW in '97 not WWF/E.
WWF/E overtook WCW in about '97 to become the number one company. It's remained in that position ever since. However, ECW is closing the gap. If only I could've signed Bret Hart back in 2001 it may have already happened.
Shawn Michaels jumped to ECW back in '97 when he had a falling out with Vince. This has affected a whole lot in the gameworld. For instance, The Montreal Screwjob never happened and Bret is still in WWE. Also, he is still active 'cos he never had the match where Goldberg injured him.


If you got any other questions please ask.

I know the feeling. Unfortunately, what with a written contract it may be a little difficult. Although, I have a feeling his contract with WWF enters the "negotiation period" in about a week. So, I'll keep you all posted.

ECW Online can report that ECW intends to drop the brand split. Apparently, this decision was taken by the senior management team as a result of pressure from loyal fans, through various media, to see both rosters merged.

It is not yet known how the two TV shows will be organised from this point on as both shows have over a season remaining on MTV2 according to contractual agreement.

Charlie Pag is expected to make an on-screen announcement on the subject. If any further reports become available you will hear them here first.

Raven: The world is filled with people who believe that their talents have been frustrated by an unkind fate; they are convinced that they could write, paint, or, perhaps, excel in music if their lives were only differently ordered but they lack the resolution to reorder their destiny. They are not liars, these people, but they are deceiving themselves. For talent that is not backed up with sufficient resolution to ensure its expression is only doubtfully existent. What about me? What about Raven? I am the greatest wrestler alive and I have the resolution to impose my physical will on Shawn Michaels at Anarchy Rulz.

You see, the reward of great men is that, long after they have died, one is not sure that they are dead and, just as a human of esteemed greatness is long remembered, the pain that I shall inflict upon Shawn Michaels will form the basis of future legend.

Pagleiro: Allow me to introduce The Monster that is Abyss. If my associates and I were not the most dominant force in proffesional wrestling, we sure as hell are now.

I am here for two reasons. Firstly, to announce Revolution's half of the card for Anarchy Rulz:


There will be a Triangle Match for The International All Action Title. Tajiri will defend the belt against Jushin Lyger and AJ Styles.

Rey Mysterio Jr. and Juventud Guerrera will face off in the seventh, and last, match of their best-of-seven series.

Tommy Dreamer will face Rob Van Dam in a Number One Contender's Match.

This is my favourite match of the night, Paul Burchill and Abyss will physically dismantle the bWo in a match for the World Tag Team Titles.

Abyss nods his head and clenches his fists in a very threatening manner.

Pag: Finally, Shawn Michaels will feel the wrath of my good friend Raven in a Barbed Wire Death Match for the World Heavyweight Title.

Now, I move onto the second issue that requires redress. Last Thursday night Paul Heyman made a very unprofessional statement that gives me very good grounds to fire him! However, I'm going to give him a chance to keep his job.

As, a lot of you may know, after Anarchy Rulz, we are officially dropping the brand split. That is, headbookers will still control their respective show but the entire ECW roster will be eligible to compete on both brands. So, as a way of marking this ocassion and allowing Paul E an opportunity to stay employed, I am making an inter-promotional Eight Man Tag Match for Anarchy Rulz. Team Revolution will face Team F' The Mainstream. If F' The Mainstream wins, Paul E. can keep his job. If not, he's gonna be the next fat, balding bastard on the unemployment line.

Team Revolution will be: The Sandman, Cactus Jack, Rocky and Ultimo Dragon.

Pick your guys wisely Paul E. You may regret it if you don't.

Rey and Juvi work together remarkably well and win with a Double Toprope DDT at 16:23
Match Rating: B+

After the match, the two luchadores shake hands. However, instead of letting go, Juvi pulls Rey closer and they stare each other down.

Hudson: It all somes down to a final match. Talk about intensity and determination to win...
JR: Now, though, we have recieved word that Shawn Michaels will face the F.B.I. in a handicp match.
Callis: Paul E was right you know? I don't think this unjust treatment of Shawn Michaels will ever stop.

Despite putting up a brave fight, Shawn Michaels is slowly picked apart in a five on one beatdown.
However, the bWo run in to even the odds.

A five on five all-out brawl ensues and the bWo and Shawn Michaels start to get the upper hand. However, at that moment Abyss runs out to the ring. The F.B.I. escape through the crowd as quickly as they can while Abyss takes out Shawn Michaels and every member of the bWo one-by-one. With the F.B.I. nowhere in sight, referee Jim Molineaux has no choice but to call for a no contest.
Match Rating: A

After the match, Abyss continues the assault. Charlie Pag, Raven and Burchill appear at the entrance-way and applaud his efforts.

At this point, I'd be hugely appreciative of any feedback on that last show and the general direction of the diary 'cos I've started trying a lot of new things, what with dropping the brands (well done Stallion, I really do think you were right after consideration), introducing the Super Juniors and trying to strengthen the tag team division...

So, if you think there is anything I should be doing differrently, if I used to include stuff that you liked and no longer do or if you think any of the storylines require comment (be it positive or negative), please drop a comment.

Cheers for reading, I really appreciate it.

I've been away for a few days, but I think it's a great idea to drop the brands. It allows for much more freedom, although your roster is pretty packed good luck keeping everyone happy lol

I still think you're doing a fantastic job, I can't really offer any productive advice as I don't see you doing anything wrong.

I don't see you doing anything wrong.

Must be a good sign ;). Cheers for the feedback dude.

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW...
Taz: ...F' The Mainstream. We have sold out the American Bank Center.
Heyman: Well, at least that's fitting for what could be my last night on the job.
Taz: Hey, Paul, there's no way you are going out like that, my friend. It doesn't matter who's on the team; Team F' The Mainstream will whip Team Revolution's ass and you will carry on as our headbooker.
Joey: Amen to that!
Heyman: Thanks for the vote of confidence.
Taz: No problem man.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is a F' The Mainstream Super Juniors match contested under lucha libre rules. Therefore, it is best two out of three falls. To my left, Chris Hero, Phoenix Star and Nosawa. And, to my right, Chessman, Ozz and The Great Sasuke: The Cult Of Sasuke.

Sasuke's followers kneel before him.

Sasuke: When we first arrived, you thought that we joke, that we laughable but Great Sasuke is no joking. This we will demonstrate further tonight.

Taz: What the hell does that mean?
Joey: I have no idea but these guys freak me out every time I see them!

The Iron Saints enter the ring.

Vito: This weeks featured evil doer made his ECW debut just last week but that makes him no less of a sinner. This man has glorified death and the supernatural throughout his entire career. This man is none other than LA Park.

His disciples begin chanting in a foreign language, whilst dancing around him. Suddenly, he makes a pointing motion at the doll and LA Park, who is still in the ring, catches on fire.

Joey: Oh my god! He's on fire.
Taz: Man, this is freaky. Somebody stop this!

Tiger Mask IV and Teddy Hart come running from the back.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TigerMaskIV.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TeddyHart.jpg

They are able to take out the cult and get to Sasuke. As soon as Tiger Mask hits him, his concentration seems to be broken and the fire burning LA Park instantly extinguishes. However, whilst an EMT crew comes to the aid of LA Park, the cult begins a six on 2 assault on Hart and Tiger Mask.

Joey: Oh my god! That was brutal.
Taz: I don't think I've ever seen anything as disturbing as that and I was there when Dreamer forcefully moulded a steel chair into the shape of Raven's Head!

Christian: What the hell was that last week Chris? Why didn't you help me?

Jericho: Man, I would have but I couldn't.

Christian: angrily What do you mean you couldn't?

Jericho: By the time Kurt had you in that Ankle lock, Benoit was up and ready to take me out.

Christian looks sceptical

Jericho: Come on man, we go back years. Would I really do that to you?

Christian: No.

Jericho: Exactly, now put it there.

The two men slap hands and then hug. Unbeknown to Christian, Jericho has a wry smile on his face.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: Ladies and gentleman, F' The Mainstream's half of the card for Anarchy Rulz:

After tonight's events, I have decided that Chessman, Ozz and Sasuke will face LA Park, Tiger Mask IV and Teddy Hart in a Six Man Tag Team Match.

The Dudley Boys will face three members of The Iron Saints.

Rob Van Dam will face Tommy Dreamer in a Number One Contender's match.

Rhino, who has been on incredible form, will defend his TV Title against a mystery opponent.

Now, I was going to make a tag match where Angle and Benoit faced Christian and Jericho but, because of what Charlie Pag said on Monday, I have decided to pull that match from the card.

You see, at Anarchy Rulz, my job is on the line. So, I've enlisted Angle and Benoit, as two of ECW's top performers, to represent Team F' The Mainstream.

This brand's team in full is: Chris Benoit, Kurt Angle, Goliath and Sabu. I trust these four to loyally represent their company, their brand and me.

[The Stallion]

Everything looks awesome brother. I cant wait to see what you have planned for the future of ECW. Lets see, my predictions

Tiger Mask IV, Teddy Hart & LA Park vs. The Cult Of Sasuke - Its time for The Cult to unleash there true power!

International All Action Championship Match
Jushin "Thunder" Lyger vs. AJ Styles vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri (c) - I really like the IAC Title, I have always been a fan of good crusierweight action.

The Dudley Boys vs. The Iron Saints - I expect Christoffaro to make an appearence

Final Of The Best-Of-Seven Series
Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Juventud Guerrera - Juvi may be good, but Rey is better

World Television Championship Match
Rhino (c) vs. Mystery Opponent - This one has be interested. Can it be a new signee, a man from Rhinos past or a "New Blood" of sorts. I can see a fued forming out of this!

Number One Contendership Match
Rob Van Dam vs. Tommy Dreamer - As much as I love RVD, I think a match between Dreamer and Raven would be better that RVD and Raven. There Hardcore!

World Tag Team Championship Match
The bWo (c) vs. Burchill & Abyss - bWo all the way baby

Inter-Promotional Eight-Man Tag To End The Brand Split
Team F' The Mainstream vs. Team Revolution - Paul E is not going anywhere, plus F' The Mainstreams' Team is so much better.

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Shawn Michaels vs. Raven (c) - As cool as it would be for Shawn to become champion, I think Charlie will do anything in his power to prevent it. I think Abyss will get involved and start a fued between them!

[Nevermore]

Thanks for the feedback boys... I really do appreciate it! I'll get the card up a little bit later today.

Quote The Raven
Nevermore

[Tweek It]

Tiger Mask IV, Teddy Hart & LA Park vs. The Cult Of Sasuke - You really can't stop their build-up right now. I see the Cult picking this one up because of the talent and the numbers factor.

International All Action Championship Match
Jushin "Thunder" Lyger vs. AJ Styles vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri (c) - As much as I like Tajiri and AJ, I think Lyger should pick the win up in this one.

The Dudley Boys vs. The Iron Saints - I somewhat expect Christoffaro to be involved in this match, but with Brandon feelings toward him as of late could come to the helm during Anarchy.

Final Of The Best-Of-Seven Series
Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Juventud Guerrera - Rey should pick up the final match in the series.

World Television Championship Match
Rhino (c) vs. Mystery Opponent - If it was anybody else than the mystery opponent might pick up the victory and become the new television champion. This isn't anybody though.. it is Rhino! Rhino will probably have his hands full, no doubt, but Rhino will come out with the win.

Number One Contendership Match
Rob Van Dam vs. Tommy Dreamer - I'd just rather see Dreamer become number one contender.

World Tag Team Championship Match
The bWo (c) vs. Burchill & Abyss - bWo! bWo! bWo!

Inter-Promotional Eight-Man Tag To End The Brand Split
Team F' The Mainstream vs. Team Revolution - The odds look stacked against Team Revolution. I just don't see them winning this one.

World Heavyweight Championship Match
Shawn Michaels vs. Raven (c) - Abyss, Charlie, Burchill, bWo.. this match could turn into a war. Raven will get the edge in the end.

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW Anarchy Rulz! I'm Joey styles alongside my broadcast colleagues for tonight, Don Callis and two time ECW World Heavyweight Champion, Taz.
Taz: Thanks for the intro Joe. It's good to be here.
Callis: It sure is. I have a feeling that tonight's show is going to be a real spectacle.

Bob Artese: Welcome to Anarchy Rulz!

There is a huge pop

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is a Super Juniors Six Man Tag Team Match contested under lucha libre rules. Therefore, it is best two out of three falls. To my left, the team of Tiger Mask VI, Teddy Hart and LA Park. And, to my right, Chessman, Ozz and The Great Sasuke: The Cult Of Sasuke.

They forcefully eject Hart and Tiger Mask and proceed to tie up LA Park just like two weeks ago. Sasuke then places his hand over LA Park's face as if sucking out the life essence from within him. After a minute he releases his grip and steps backwards. The cult untie LA Park and he gets to his feet. He stares at Sasuke for a second and then falls to his knees in worship.

Joey: Oh my god, does this mean that he's a part of the cult?
Callis: Surely not.

Sasuke laughs and leads his followers and LA Park to the back.

Cristoforro: I'm sorry?

Brandon: ...Unnecessarily.

Brandon storms out of the ring, Salvatore goes after him.


Taz: Well, I think there is descension in the ranks of The Iron Saints.

Pag: Tonight will be a glorious night for my associates and me. Paul Heyman will join the unemployment line, Raven will destroy Shawn Michaels and the two men standing next to me will win the Tag Titles.

Burchill: That's right. The bWo stuck their nose in where it didn't belong and tonight they are gonna pay!

The three men laugh, looking confident.

Both men seem determined to leave their all in the ring. The match is incredibly even with both men seeing ample offence. There are highspots galore: Rey hits a toprope Huracanrana through a ringside table on Juvi at 9:26 and Juvi nais a 450 Splash on Rey at 13:16. Eventually, Juventud Guerrera gets the win with a Juvi Driver at 17:22
Match Rating: A*

The fans give a standing ovation in recognition of an amazing wrestling bout.

Juvi helps Rey off the canvas and offers him his hand. Rey accepts and the two men hug in the centre of the ring. The crowd continues to applaud.

Taz: I tell you here and I tell you now, that sort of mutual respect is not seen nearly enough in a wrestling ring. That respect is deserved on both of their parts. That match, hell the series, was absoloutley phenomenal!

Bob Artese: The following contest is one fall and for the ECW World Television Championship. In the ring at this time, from Detroit Michigan, he is the ECW World Television Champion: "The Man Beast" Rhino. And his opponent, whose identity was previously unknown, is a three time ECW Television Champion and a four time ECW World Heavyweight Champion, from right here in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, "The Franchise" Shane Douglas.

Douglas, accompanied by Francine, makes his way to the ring to a standing ovation and chants of "Franchise"

He picks up a mic and laughs loudly.

Douglas: The Franchise is back in Extreme Championship Wrestling. The man who toppled Terry Funk at Cyberslam '97 in Monica, Pennsylvania; the man who destroyed Sabu for the World title at November To Remember in Fort Lauderdale Florida is back and he is back to prove he is still the best performer in America.

You see, I am here to achieve three very important things. I have never held the ECW TV Title, an eroor of history that will be put right tonight! I already hold the record for the longest ECW World Title reign, which by the way was seven hundred and thirty six days! So, I want to equal Raven's record of five reigns because I'm on four. Finally, I want to be the only the fourth man to achieve the elusive ECW Triple Crown by winning The Tag Titles.

Joey: The Franchise really is back and he's in the best form I've ever seen him in!

Raven is backstage for a shoot promo.

Raven: There is no sin. There is no virute. There are just humans and the actions they choose to take, neither justly righteous or condemnable. So, no criticism made of me can be supported by fair evidence. What about me? What about Raven? I am so often asked "Why can't you can't you cut a promo in plain English? Why can't you be less depressive? Why can't you have a sense of humour?" Well, imagination is a quality given to a man to compensate him for what he is not and a sense of humour was provided to console him for what he is. Thus, due to my own successes, I need neither.

Tonight, my successes shall continue. Shawn Michaels is a man marked for execution.

So it is written; so it shall come to pass.

The Blue Guy, Super Dragon and Traci guard the ring from any outside interference throughout. At 10:26, Raven comes running down the entrance-way aisle. However, Shawn Michaels emerges from the crowd and Superkicks him before he can make it to the ring. The bWo win when Big Stevie hit the Stevie Kick on Burchill at 14:22

Taz: Oh Jesus, Paul. Screw that. This can't happen. He f**king built this company!

Heyman comes out and waves at the fans with tears in his eyes.

Pag: Heyman, I said that you would be the next fat, balding bastard on the unemployment line. Now, get the f**k out of my arena!

Ladies and gentlemen allow me to introduce you to the new, post-brand era of Extreme Championship Wrestling: an era without the stagnant, obsolete piece of crap that is Paul Heyman.

In a public display, Taz throws his headset on the floor and picks up a microphone.

Taz: F**k this! If Paul goes, I go.

He drops the microphone and walks out with his arm around Heyman.

There is a deafening chant of "Michaels" throughout the entire match, as the fans want Pag and his associates to pay for their actions towards Paul E. At 16:43, Pag, Burchill, Goliath and Abyss all come running to the ring. However, the bWo is in close pursuit. A huge five-on-five brawl ensues. In the confusion, Shawn Michaels hits the Superkick on Raven and Jim Molineaux counts the three at 19:24

Joey: Oh my god! Shawn Michaels is the ECW champion!
Callis: That is a direct slap in the face to Raven and Pag and I am so damn happy about it!

Pag and his associates head to the back in disbelief.
Shawn Michaels and the bWo, as both The World and Tag Team Champions, stand tall in the ring. The fans go crazy.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/bambam.jpg

Hey, I'm Scott Bigelow (AKA Bam Bam Bigelow) and this is the Bam Bam Exam. For those of you who have just stumbled upon this page by accident, ECW have commissioned me to write on their website. "About what?" I hear you ask. About the state of the wrestling inustry according to the Beast From The East.

The first thing that needs examining is the "departure" of Paul Heyman and Taz from ECW. Sorry to ruin the illusion guys but it's all a storyline because I happen to know that both guys are still under contract. Hell, Paul E has a lifetime contract and is said to be bestest buddies with Charlie Pag behind the scenes. But then, I guess they would be after working closely together for about the last ten years. Anyway, I would expect the master of the Tazmission and the mad scientist that is Paul Heyman to be returning to a TV screen near you in the very near future.

On the subject of returning I will turn my attention to "The Franchise" Shane Douglas. Now, Shane is a very close personal friend of mine but I say this even in spite of that: he is one of the few veterans around today that can still go. Bret and Owen are both over fourty and they're still the best thing on the current WWF roster and Raven, despite being fourty, is still a hugely valuable asset to ECW. As for Shane, he's right up there with them. The guy is fourty two for crying out loud and he was still able to have that brutal TV title match with Rhino at Anarchy Rulz. Unbelievable, just unbelievable! You know what else? He's gonna get the ECW Triple Crown and equal Sandman's record because, believe me, when Shane makes a promise, he delivers!

I mentioned Bret and Owen before and that's also something I want to talk about. As you probably know, WWF has this grand plan for Unforgiven. Bret, as the heel World champ, is gonna face his brother Owen, who is the babyface Intercontinental Champ. Is this ringing any bells? Survey says... Wrestlemania VI - Hogan versus The Ultimate Warrior. They did that same angle way back in 1989. Yes, they are just rebranding old ideas but, for everyone who's saying that it's a bad idea, you're a fool because any chance to see Bret versus Owen should be taken! They are the two most gifted technical wrestlers alive today and I haven't forgotten Angle or Benoit!

Staying on the subject of WWF, they resigned The Outsiders. They're just too old. Scott Hall has lost what he had and Kevin Nash couldn't wrestle his way out of a paper bag in the first place. Has he got charisma? Hell yes but so does the entire WWF locker room. It's a shame because recent WWF booking has been fantastic.

Goliath joining Pag's group? Bad idea in my opinion. You had Raven as the established talent and could have brought any number of young guys into that stable to push them into the main event. Bad booking - 'nuff said.

Finally, I come to Shawn Michaels winning the ECW World Title. A lot of my friends in the industry have different opinions but I think it was a good call. As much as I love Raven (and I do), the strap was getting a little stale on him. I don't know if Shawn is only gonna be a transitional champion but, either way, it was good to give to someone else. Also, if they plan on continuing this feud between bWo/Michaels and Pag's group, it's a great way to get some heat for the storyline.

I'm Scott Bigelow and that was the Bam Bam Exam.

Thanks for reading...

[jerlito]

wtf you now getting bam bam in the ecw again oh maybe this is your way of putting paul and taz back in your ecw but still i like your ecw.

[The Stallion]

WOW, Awesome PPV man. I did not see Paul Heyman's group losing that match but I have to admit you are a mad genius! I think its awesome that Shawn won the World Title. When I made my predictions I did not think that you would make Raven lose to Shawn so I picked Dreamer to win the #1 Contenders match. But the second RVD won the match I knew Shawn would win. Years ago the WWE had an opportunity of a liftime to put Shawn Michaels and RVD for the WWE Title in the ring together but blew it. Now is the chance to get it right. Great PPV! One thing I did not like however, was the breaking of Keyfabe (I think thats how you spell it) by Bam Bam. Not cool and it breaks the illusion big time. We all knew that Paul and Taz leaving would be part of a storyline, but when Bam Bam came out and spoiled it for everyone it kind of sucked. Thats the only problem I had with anything. Love the Cult Of Sasuke and it seriously reminds me of the old Ministy Of Darkness stable from back in the day. Great job!

Fairplay, I didn't know how "insider" to go. I'll bare that in mind for the next Bam Bam Exam.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/DonCallis.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JoelGertner.jpg

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. I'm Don Callis, alongside a man that is making his return to ECW after a year long absence, none other than Joel Gertner.
Gertner: It's great to be back Don!
Callis: This is the first official show of the Post-Brand Era of ECW, partially indicated by my new broadcast colleague, and we think it's going to be a barnstormer!
Gertner: Damn right, Don! Tonight, Rey Mysterio Jr. and Juventud Guerrera are scheduled to make their first appearance as a tag team.
Callis: That seems like a logical logical progression for them after the respect they have earned for one another.
Gertner: Oh, absolutely but, on top of that, The Iron Saints say they are going to punish one of the most well known men on the roster tonight.
Callis: I wonder who that is.
Gertner: I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.

Shawn Michaels is in the ring with Stephanie Mcintosh.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels3.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: Ladies and gentlemen, the new ECW World Heavyweight Champion... "The Showstopper" Shawn Michaels.

Michaels falls to his knees in a theatrical pose.

Michaels: Why, thank you, Stephanie

He kisses her on the hand.

Michaels: First of all, I want to thank my entire family for standing by me... No, but seriously, award ceremony or not, I want to thank each and every one of you for your incredble support at Anarchy Rulz. My second name was chanted from the moment I made my entrance until after the show was over and, believe me, that is one hell of a humbling experience.

So, tonight the Shawn Michaels reign begins and...

Raven appears at the entrance way, accompanied by Charlie Pag, Burchill, Abyss and Goliath.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Abyss2.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheGiant.jpg

Raven: So, Shawn Michaels has come to give his little acceptance speech. Who gives a f**K? What about me? What about Raven? We're two minutes into the Shawn Michaels reign and I'm already sick of it.

Any man's death strengthens me, for I am not of average mind and entity. Therefore, Shawn Michaels, never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. At Guilty As Charged, I am challenging you for a title shot.

Michaels: Woah, slow down there big boy, your math don't quite add up. At Guilty As Charged I'm facing Rob Van Dam because he won his Number One Contendership on Friday. By the way, Rob, be ready because it might just be the match of both of our careers!

Raven: Now, Shawn, you're just not getting this are you? Screw RVD, one way or another I will face you for the title at Guilty As Charged. The choice is not yours to make!

He hands the mic to Pag.

Pag: On that note, Raven will face Super Dragon tonight and both Shawn Michaels and the bWo will be banned from ringside. If they choose to ignore that ban, they will join Paul Heyman and Taz on the unemployment line!


Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall. To my left, the team of Michael Shane and Frankie "The Future" Kazarian. And, to my right, making their debut as a tag team, from South Of The Border, Rey Mysterio Jr. and Juventud Guerrera: Los Increibles.

The Great Sasuke enters the ring, for once, unaccompanied.

Sasuke: Friday, my disciples and I prove that we be awesome! Tonight, I prove myself as greatest wrestler alive. Anyone, in the locker room can face me one on one and I prevail!

Hayabusa makes his way to the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Hayabusa.jpg

Gertner: Oh my god, it's Hayabusa!
Callis: We haven't seen him in ECW since 2000!

Hayabusa is able to escape before he is beaten down. Meanwhile, Sasuke admonishes his followers for not arriving quickly enough.

Callis: Well, that answers the question posed at Anarchy Rulz. LA Park is a part of the cult.
Gertner: Thank god Hayabusa made it out of the ring in time!

The Iron Saints enter the ring.

Vito: At Anarchy Rulz, The Iron Saints defeated The Dudley Boys and, tonight, the inquisition continues. Tonight's featured sinner is one of the most well known men in the wrestling world but that makes him no less of a heretic! So, Bill Goldberg, come and subject yourself to justice!

Callis: Goldberg? Do they honestly expect to beat him?

Brandon picks up a mic.

Brandon: What was that Cristoforro? You nearly cost us the match!

Vito: I'm sure it was an accident my brother.

Cristoforro: You need to calm down.

Brandon: Don't tell me to calm down.

Brandon pushes Cristoforro. Vito and Slavatore have to seperate them.

Vito: In the name of all that is holy, stop this now!

Rocky and Cactus Jack are talking backstage.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock-1.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CactusJack.jpg

Rocky: ...and so the boss said "Can't talk now, love, I'm on the mobile."

Cactus Jack laughs hysterically.

Cactus: Haha, awesome. Was he for real?

Suddenly Steve Austin attacks both men and leaves them down.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpg

Austin: Oh hell yeah. Steve Austin is back and he's here to kick some ass!

The crowd goes nuts.

Callis: Wow, Austin's back!
Gertner: It sure looks that way. Tonight is full of surprises!

Michaels: Raven, all that this proves is that you are a grade A bluechip bastard! I will not sale RVD down the river. My title match with him is still on whether you like it or not!

Raven: Okay, Shawn, it's your funeral. Or rather, the funeral of all your loved ones and the blood is on your hands!

Gertner: What a sick bastard!
Callis: Raven always was the master of manipulation! Now, though, I have just recieved word that our main event, which is up next, will be Steve Austin versus Rocky!

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW F' The Mainstream. I'm Joey Styles, seemingly back to calling shows on my own because my two broadcast colleagues left the promotion last week at Anarchy Rulz. Anyway, confirmed for tonight's card is a rematch from Revolution between The Great Sasuke and Hayabusa. Also, Shane Douglas is scheduled to defend his TV Title against Tajiri and Kensuke Sasaki makes his debut.

Charlie Pag, Raven, Burchill, Abyss and Goliath are in the ring.

Pag: Tonight, what I like to think of as "The Purge Of The bWo" continues as Raven will face Da Blue Guy one on one. Just as on Monday, the rest of the bWo and Shawn Michaels are banned from ringside and face immediate termination of their contract if they choose to ignore that fact.

Pag passes the mic to Raven.

Raven: Shawn Michaels, regardless of what you say, I will face you at Guilty As Charged and ensure that your reign was nothing more than a small discrepancy in the history of the ECW Title.

Steph: Shawn I really think you should just give the title shot to Raven.

Michaels: No way. RVD earned his shot and I'm not gonna be the one responsible for taking that opportunity away from him!

Steph: But Shawn, you have to realise that Raven and the bastards he hangs around with are going to slowly take apart the bWo to get at you. I ask you, does Stevie deserve that?

Michaels: No, of course not but...

Steph: So, don't you see? You have to give Raven the shot for their sake and yours.

Michaels: I just can't do that to Rob.

Steph: Shawn, that doesn't matter. You'll easily beat Raven at Guilty As Charged and then RVD can have his shot. You beat Raven last time, so what's the problem now?

Michaels: Nothing, but just in case I were to lose, I can't do that for Rob's sake. Now, can we please drop it?

Steph: Okay, but you do know I'm only saying this because I care about you, don't you?

Michaels: Yeah, of course.

They stare at each other for a moment, then look away, embarrased.

Vito: Tonight's featured sinner is a heretic of the highest order! He is responsible for countless acts of gratuitous violence and has incited hatred on similarly numerous ocassions. Sabu, come and subject yourself to justice!

Joey: Sabu? They have to be joking!

Vito: My brother, Brandon, was correct. You are nothing more than a waste of space; a waste of valuable oxygen! There is no place for you among God's elite.

Vito, Salvatore and Brandon assault Cristoforro.

Joey: Well, it looks like Cristoforro's holy brothers have turned on him. That hardly seems christian...

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/bambam.jpg

Hey, I'm Scott Bigelow (AKA Bam Bam Bigelow) and this is the Bam Bam Exam. A mix of things to discuss this week...

First off, Cristoforro is out of the Iron Saints. If you ask me it is probably a good call. No offence to Chris Daniels, because he is a phenomenal wrestler, but the three Thomaselli brothers (Vito, Sal and Brandon) are three very talented kids who need their shot at the big time without anyone else alongside them. If they don't make it over with the fans then they can start associating themselves with more established wrestlers but there is every chance that they will make it on their own.

Why weren't The Cult Of Sasuke on F' The Mainstream? So far, I think this gimmick is a really good idea and the group has been slowly gathering momentum. So, why leave them off the show? I think (and hope) that there's an interesting reason behind it.

On a similar note, the actual match between Sasuke and Hayabusa on F' The Mainstream was rather average. That's such a shame because their first encounter on Revolution was a real treat to watch. I'm hoping it was just an off night for those guys because, generally, ECW strives to only put on feuds that will produce great matches. In addition, I've seen both guys wrestle on many ocassions and there is no doubt in my mind that they are both incredible athletes that fully deserve their positions on the ECW roster and the apparent push they are getting.

If you don't mind, I was gonna jump over to talk about WWF. What the hell are they doing with the tag belts? There are so many great teams on that roster but on every show we have to watch the straps struggle to stay buckled around the overweight waists of two out-of-shape has beens! It's ridiculous. It's time The Outsiders stayed outside of wrestling.

More positively, Justin Credible is doing a great job as European Champ. Recently he has been able to get some high quality matches out of some poor quality opponents. So, hats and any other items of clothing that you feel like removing go off to him.

Now, the bit I really wanted to write: Bret and Owen at Summerslam. Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Match of the year candidate in my opinion. The belt didn't change hands but it didn't have to because the quality of wrestling was some of the best I have ever seen.

Finally, speaking of match of the year candidates, what's with the whole Michaels/Raven thing in ECW? I've got to admit that this story has me very interested but I hope it doesn't stop us from seeing Shawn Michaels v. RVD because that could easily rival Summerslam's main event just gone.

I'm Scott Bigelow and that was the Bam Bam Exam.

Thanks for reading...

[jerlito]

just got to say your stuff is good but i mess taz and paul helping joey open the show but i like that joel is back and the bam bam thing worked this time for me cool keep it up:D .

[Rune]

I love the "Bam Bam Exam", it's good reading (as well as the shows, of course) keep them up! Good job bro.

[The Stallion]

Sorry no replys recently brother but I have been busy. Onto the shows. I love having the brands gone, and adding the flavor of whats happening on the others shows works great. So I guess The Outsiders returned to the WWF after WCW shut down. What a minute! The WWF!? I guess in your universe they never went to court for the rights to the initials WWF huh? The Raven - Michaels fued is going great, and just like Bam Bam said, I hope it does not rob us of seeing Michaels vs. RVD because that would be a shame. Im a big Christopher Daniels fan and I hope he becomes a breakout star now that he is not with the Iron Saints. Where were Chris Beniot and Eddie these past two shows. Its a travisty to leave them off. I like where yu are going with everything and the Bam Bam Exam was much better this time around. Great job brother!

Sorry no replys recently brother but I have been busy.

No problem, matey. I'm very grateful that you take the time to leve the feedback that you do.

Gertner: ...and I'm Joel Gertner.
Callis: Tonight, we have a confirmed TV Title match between Shane Douglas and Masato Tanaka. Plus, Steve Austin reveals his mystery partner for his tag match against Rocky and Cactus Jack.
Gertner: No wonder that over ten thousand fans have packed in here.

The Iron Saints come to the ring.

Vito: Thanks to the sheer incompetence of one Christopher Daniels, The Iron Saints could not properly punish Sabu last week. So, Mr. Homocidal Maniac, come and subject yourself to justice!

Sabu wins with a Triple Jump Moonsault at 13:45
Match Rating: A

Vito picks up a mic.

Vito: Christopher Daniels, your screw up has affected us more than I previously thought. Tonight's loss was due to the lingering smell of your inadequacy that haunts The Iron Saints. So, I am challenging you, one-on-one, to a match at Guilty As Charged.

Gertner: And you have to know that Daniels will take up that challenge.
Callis: Absolutely.

Steph: Shawn, how are you feeling after Raven and his kronies attacking you last week?

Michaels: Yeah, not too bad. I'm gonna kick his ass one of these days!

Steph: And why not make that day Guilty As Charged?

Michaels: Steph, please not this again.

Steph: Sorry Shawn but I'm worried about what will happen to you and you're friends if you don't accept Raven's challenge. He's a sick bastard that will stop at nothing!

Michaels: Yeah, don't I know it?

Steph: Shawn, you could beat him so easily one-on-one and then you wouldn't have to let this weigh on your mind.

Michaels: Okay, I'll think about it but I'm not promising anything because Rob deserves his shot.

Steph: Fair enough, I'm only saying this for your sake.

They stare at each other for a second but look away.

Michaels: Yeah, I know that. I'm glad there's someone looking out for me.

Steph: Likewise.

They kiss as the camera cuts back to ringside.

Callis: Well... that's an interesting development.
Gertber: Isn't it just?

Sandman: Hey, hotstuff.

Beulah ignores him.

Sandman: Hey! I was talking to you!

Beulah looks intimidated.

Beulah: Um, I was just leaving.

She goes to leave but The Sandman leans towards her, trying to look impressive.

Tommy Dreamer approaches.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TommyDreamer.jpg

Dreamer: Hey! Back off!

Sandman: Woah, is there a problem with a guy having a little fun with a girl?

Dreamer: There sure as hell is when that girl is my wife.

Sandman: You need to calm down. What's the problem? Doesn't your missus put out enough?

Dreamer sees red and punches The Sandman. The two men brawl until Dreamer hits a DDT on the concrete floor.

Dreamer: You don't treat any woman like that, you ass hole, least of all my wife!

Callis: Dreamer standing up for his wife, that's how a man should behave!
Gertner: Yeah, true. But then, I know where Sandman's coming from. She is one fine piece of ass!
Callis: Jesus, Joel, you haven't changed at all. At least be a little bit tactful!

Daniels: Vito, what you said earlier was laughable. One-on-one? You don't know the damn meaning of one-on-one. Never once have you wrestled a match without your brothers there to back you up. Nonetheless, one way or another, The Fallen Angel will face you and beat you at Guilty As Charged!

Pag and Raven enter the ring.

They quickly clear the ring as the crowd applauds. Then, RVD and Shawn Michaels stare each other down in the middle of the ring.

Gertner: They may be able to work together but they know that they're gonna wrestle one another at Guilty As Charged.
Callis: For The World Title no less!

Steve Austin enters the ring.

Austin: If you want to know who Stunning Steve Austin's tag partner is tonight let me hear you.

The crowd go crazy.

Austin: Now, see, that just ain't good enough. I said let me hear you!

The crowd cheers even louder than before.

Austin: Ladies and Gentleman, none other than the Olympic gold medalist, Kurt Angle.

Hey, I'm Scott Bigelow (AKA Bam Bam Bigelow) and this is the Bam Bam Exam. More wrestle-news according to The Beast From The East...

WWF No Mercy? Good show in the main but I would have changed a few things. Owen and his IC title should have been higher up the card, they should put the Light Heavyweight Title on someone who can actually produce some good matches and, most importantly of all, Kevin Nash should not be in the World Title picture! Bret Carried their match last night. He did a damn good job but he shouldn't have to! If he had wrestled Triple H, Taker, Regal or Booker T that match would have been incredible!

Speaking of incredible, Justin Credible should drop the European Title. Why? Because he is blatantly over enough to go after the World Champ. So, why Vince proceeds to bury him in the midcard, I don't quite understand but that's Vince for ya. I, for one, would love to see a Hart/Credible feud!

Taker versus Batista was great. I greeted the announcement of that match with great scepticism but it really delivered. Taker was awesome and, as poor as Batista has been in the ring of late, he and The Deadman really worked well together.

Finally, next time around, give Booker a real opponent so we can see a class wrestler put on a class match.

Now as far as ECW goes, I'm really looking forward to Guilty As Charged. I'm completely psyched to see Vito take on Chris Daniels. Will this be the proverbial passing of the torch or will Daniels finally get his push into the main event?

The title picture is also looking great. RVD v. Michaels? Awesome. Raven v. Michaels? Just as good. Really, we can't lose but I'm hoping RVD gets it if I'm honest.

The Dreamer/Sandman faceoff, as you would expect, seems like it will escalate into a big feud. That's great news because those two guys work so well together in the ring! Just look back at the countless matches they have had in the past - all brilliant!

Kensuke Sasake looks phenomenal and is clearly getting a big push. I have been told that he's gonna get a big match at the PPV but that, I'm afraid, is all I can say.

I found out today why the cult hasn't been on TV. The Great Sasuke has been ill. Fairplay, I guess, he works his ass off on a regular basis so we can't complain! I just hope he's back soon.

Finally, Benoit and Guerrero are back and anyone who knows even the smallest thing about wrestling has to be stoked about that!

I'm Scott Bigelow and that was The Bam Bam Exam.

Thanks for reading...

like the show and the bam bam exam now i understand why the cult was not on the show thank you for that.

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. I'm Don Callis...
Gertner: ...and I'm Joel Gertner.
Callis: Tonight, Jerry Lynn challenges The Franchise for the TV Title, The Iron Saints face The Acolytes and there are two excting super junior matches scheduled.
Gertner: Should be great, Don, but right now I think our CEO has something to say.
Callis: sarcastically Oh goody, I can't wait!

Charlie Pag and Raven are in the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Pag: Shawn Michaels, we have given you every opportunity to play nice but you keep on resisting the inevitable. So, tonight we have no choice but to up the stakes. There will be a match, for which the bWo, Shawn Michaels and Rob Van Dam are banned from ringside. It will be Raven one-on-one, in a last man standing match, with... Stephanie Mcintosh!

Callis: Oh my god, that's sick.
Gertner: I think it's become abundantly clear that these guys will stop at nothing!

Stephanie is panicking and is clearly horrified by the prospect of facing Raven.

Steph: Please, Shawn, you have to do something! I can't wrestle! I can't step in the ring with Raven!

Michaels: Come on, come here.

Michaels hugs her in an attempt to calm her down.

Michaels: It's going to be fine. I won't let them hurt you. Okay?

Steph: Okay. Thank you, Shawn.

Michaels: Yeah, don't mention it.

Michaels looks confused as the camera cuts back to the ring.

Austin: Rocky, last week you pissed me off something chronic, son. So, tonight I'm looking for a straight-up fight. I hope you have the courtesy to oblige.

Rocky makes his way to the ring carrying a chair.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TheRock-1.jpg

Austin: Oh, you little bastard. I see you brought a friend.

Rocky enters the ring, with the chair still in hand. He and Austin go nose to nose.

Suddenly, Cactus Jack emerges from the crowd.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CactusJack.jpg

He nails Austin from behind and a two-on-one attack ensues.

Kurt Angle comes running in to make the save.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/KurtAngle.jpg

However, before he can get to the ring, a masked man, dressed all in black, runs up behind him and floors him. He then throws Angle head first into the ringside railings.

Cactus and Rocky look on confused but clearly happy.

Gertner: Who the hell was that?
Callis: I have absoloutely no idea!

Benoit: Christian and Jericho, last week you crossed the line. So, Eddie and I are challenging you to a tag match at Guilty As Charged.

Guerrero: That's right, me hermanos, we will show you what technical wrestling is all about. You see, Chris Jericho, your days as TV Champ are long gone. You are on a downward spiral to utter failure, Holmes. Oh, and Christian, I would say the same about you but there ain't much further for you to fall, me vito loco.

Benoit laughs and the two men walk off.

Displaying her passion for men with championships, Francine kneels down and kisses the TV Title while it is still around the waist of Douglas.

He laughs loudly.

Douglas: Now, I notice that Kensuke Sasaki is making real waves in ECW since his debut! So, it's time for him to face a real challenge. I say we see if he can put up a fight against The Franchise for The TV Title at Guilty As Charged.

There is a huge pop at the prospect of seeing Sasaki take on Douglas.

RVD: Shawn, you have to promise me that you won't give my title shot to Raven.

Michales: Rob, I have a lot of respect for you as an athlete and I appreciate the fact that you, more than anyone, deserve a shot at the title but you have to realise I'm in a bit of a tight spot here.

RVD: But Shawn...

Michaels: Look, I'll do my best but I can't make any promises.

RVD walks off unsatisfied.

Callis: Well, I guess we're actually going to have to sit and watch Raven fight Stephanie Mcintosh.
Gertner: Man, this is wrong even by my standards!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Before the match can begin, Shawn Michaels appears at the entrance-way.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels3.jpg

Michaels: Don't you lay a f**king finger on her, you ass hole!

Raven picks up a mic.

Raven: Shawn, if you come one step closer, Charlie will fire you!

Michaels: I'm perfectly aware of that. Now, shut up and let me do the talking. If it means you don't fight Stephanie, I'll give you your title shot.

Raven: Shawn, that's all I've wanted to hear.

Michaels: I said keep your mouth shut, I wasn't finished! This doesn't mean that RVD doesn't get a shot.

Raven: Explain.

Michaels: Jesus, son, if you open your mouth one more time, fired or not, I will come down there and beat you nine ways to Sunday.
First off, Goliath, Abyss and Burchill will be banned from ringside. Agreed?

Raven: Sorry, am I allowed to speak or not?

Michaels looks at Raven annoyed.

Raven: Fine, it's a deal as long as the bWo are banned too.

Michaels: Fine by me. Also, it's gonna be a triangle match because RVD is gonna be in it as well. Do we have an accord?

Raven: It will have to do.

Suddenly, Burchill, Abyss and Goliath emerge from the back and assault Michaels.

Gertner: Yeah, that's just not right!

Stephanie Mcintosh escapes the ring looking scared.

Hudson: Thanks Joey, I'm looking forward to calling the action with you. Especially on such an action packed show!
Joe: Well, it's definitely that tonight, Scott. We have found out that both The Sandman versus Tommy Dreamer, and, Kensuke Sasaki versus Shane Douglas are sanctioned matches for Guilty As Charged.
Hudson: The latter of which is a TV Title match no less.
Joey: Yeah, I'm looking forward to that one.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening matchup is one fall. To my left, representing The Iron Saints, from Vatican City, Vito The Pious. And, to my right, from Calgary Alberta Canada, "The Canadian Extremist" Lance Storm.

Burchill laughs and the two men head to the back.

Hudson is good on the mic, I never will understand why TNA got rid of him in the first place. Another top notch show brother, however I think Tanaka should have put up a better fight with Burchill. Dont go all WWE on me now and buring guys jst to make others look good :D Anyways looking foward to Guilty As Charged. And what up with no Eddie or Beniot again brother. Those two should be on every show. Later!

Hey, I'm Scott Bigelow (AKA Bam Bam Bigelow) and this is the Bam Bam Exam. Are you ready for some grapple facts?

The Outsiders versus The LOD? A horrible, slothful and lethargic match. Let both us, as wrestling fans, and the WWF booking team never speak of this monstrosity again!

On the subject of monstrosities, Aguila's matches are still stinking up the WWF's cards. However, Justin Credible is still pulling some great matches out of the bag.

Bret and Taker put on another stellar display on Smackdown! It's great to see two legends at the top of their game. These two are truly destined for both the WWF Hall Of Fame and the most glorious of wrestling memories. Hopefully, though, that's a long way off!

Finally, the four way between Trips, Nash, Cena and Edge was surprisingly good. I'm a man who greets many matches with scepticism but I can also admit when I'm wrong!

As for ECW, here's the low down:

Kensuke Sasaki is still looking very good and has some major momentum in his favour. The TV Title match he'll have against The Franchise at Guilty As Charged should be fantastic: a Japanese, puroresu legend versus an American, harcore legend. What's more, this one is very difficult to call because both men have been winning matches left, right and center.

By all accounts, it looks like an Austin/ Rocky showdown should grace the PPV card.

Chrsitian and Jericho versus Eddie and Benoit should be a thing of beauty. Four fantastic wrestlers, who know each other very well indeed, are gonna square off in what should be a tag match for the history books!

Furthermore, who's pumped for Vito/Daniels? 'Cos I know I am. Possibly the best youngster on the ECW roster measures up to, arguably, the most skilled of veterans. I hope Vito learns a lot from Daniels and that a great match is crafted in the process.

As for the triangle for the World Title, I could go into neverland thinking about that one and all the amazing moves that will be showcased. I have been praying for another Michaels/RVD showdown since Masters of Pain 2001 and now, thanks to the end of the brand split, my prayers have been answered! Who's gonna leave as champ? Your guess is as good as mine but, I have to say, I'm routing for Mr. PPV.

Finally, BIG, BIG, BIG news! Apparently, ECW has entered into negotiations with one of WWF's star performers. I can't reveal who it is, however, because this one is being guarded more securely than the crown jewells!

I'm Scott Bigelow and that was The Bam Bam Exam.

Thanks for reading...

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/DonCallis.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JoelGertner.jpg

Callis: Hello and welcome to ECW Revolution. I'm Don Callis...
Gertner: ...and I'm Joel Gertner.
Callis: I have a feeling that tonight's Revolution is going to be off the chart.
Gertner: I have to agree Don. Paul Burchill, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Benoit and Kensuke Sasaki will all be in action.
Callis: In which case, let's not delay it any further.

Bob Artese: Tonight's opening contest is one fall. To my left, from Nagoya Japan, Ultimo Dragon. And, to my right, still undefeated in Extreme Championship Wrestling, the "All Japan Assassin" Kensuke Sasaki.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/UltimoDragon.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/KensukeSasaki.jpg
Ultimo Dragon's quick offence cannot stop Sasaki's onslaught. He dominates and wins with a Northern Lights Bomb at 14:02
Match Rating: A

Steve Austin is in the ring for a shoot promo.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StunningSteve.jpg

Austin: Rocky, I can't believe how dumb you were last week, son. Hell, thanks to your own stupidity, Cactus Jack's gonna be on the injured list for a couple of weeks. So, Rocky now it's your turn for an ass kicking. How about at Guilty As Charged I teach you why you don't f**k with Steve Austin?

Suddenly, the masked figure who took out Kurt Angle two weeks ago enters the ring with a chair. He blasts Austin in the face with the weapon and leaves as quickly as he came.

Callis: Who the hell is that and what is his problem with Austin and Angle?
Gertner: Don, if there is one thing I've learned from my time in ECW, it's that anything is possible!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/EddieGuerrero.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/MichaelShane.jpg
Michael Shane shows much promise but Eddie wins with a Frog Splash at 16:12

Charlie Pag, Paul Burchill and Raven are in the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/CharliePag.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/Raven3.jpg

Burchill: Do you know what I hate about Georgia?

Raven: Go on.

Burchill: The people are as f**king stupid as they are ugly.

There are deafening boos from the Jefferson crowd.

Pag: Well, hang on. That guy there isn't all that bad.

Burchill: Pag, that's a woman.

Pag acts shocked.

Pag: F**king hell! Point taken.

The three men take a second to laugh at the negative reaction they recieve.

Burchill: Seriously, now, shut your ignorant, uneducated mouths because Mr. Pag has an announcement to make.

Pag: This one's for you Vinny Mac. We have just signed one of the World Wrestling Federation's top stars to a written contract from under your nose. He said, and I quote, "He was glad to leave that sinking ship". So, Vince, your number is almost up and, when that day inevitably comes, you will finally realise that ECW is the dominant brand of real wrestling!

An Ecdub chant echoes around the arena.

Raven: Moving on to even more important issues, Shawn Michaels your number is almost up too. The life support of your title reign will soon be disconnected and I will be the one to pull the plug!

So it is written; so it shall come to pass.
Quote The Raven
Nevermore

Burchill nods in agreement with Raven.

Pag: Oh and just before I forget Big Stevie Tool and Hollywood Over will face the F.B.I. tonight; 4 on 2.

The three men laugh and make their way to the back.

Gertner: What ass holes!
Callis: True, but I'm more interested in the signing. Who is it?
Gertner: Like I said before, Don, anything is possible!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/LanceStorm.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/VitoThomaselli.jpg
The match is an even contest but Vito wins with a Vatican Driver at 14:08
Match Rating: A

Vito picks up a mic.

Vito: Christopher Daniels, they call you the Fallen Angel with good reason because when you were ejected from The Iron Saints that served as the beginning of a downward spiral for your career. You will descend into anonymity and mediocrity. At Guilty As Charged, I will merely accelerate the process.

The bWo put up a brave fight and, with thanks to Da Blue Guy and Super Dragon, pick up the win at 14:23 when Stevie hit a Stevie Kick on Palumbo.

Shawn Michaels is backstage looking at his World Title pensively, when Stephanie Mcintosh approaches.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels3.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/StephanieMcintosh.jpg

Steph: Hey, what's up babe?

Michaels: Truth be told, I'm worried.

Steph: About what?

Michaels: My chances in the triangle match. Raven is a sick, twisted bastard who will stop at nothing to get the title back and RVD is one of the most gifted athletes on the planet!

Steph: But you're Shawn Michaels! You're The Showstopper! Don't you see? There is no way you can lose.

Michaels: I wish I believed that as strongly as you.

Steph: Come here.

She takes Shawn by the hand.

Steph: I'm holding the world champion's hand right now and, after that triangle match, I'll still be holding the champ's hand. Trust me.

Michaels smiles and they walk off together.

Bob Artese: Tonight's main event is one fall. To my left, from Calgary Alberta Canada, the "Canadian Crippler" Chris Benoit. And, to my right, from Surrey England, Paul Burchill.

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ChrisBenoit.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulBurchill.jpg
The match is very even with both men seeing considerable offence. Paul Burchill begins to gain the upper hand after working away on Benoit's neck. In the fifteenth minute, Burchill glances into the crowd.

Paul Heyman is sitting in the front row.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Burchill is clearly distracted and starts shouting "What the hell are you doing here?" towards the old ECW boss. Then, Paul Heyman signals for Burchill to turn around, he does so and Benoit locks in the Crossface. Burchill has no choice but to tap out at 16:13
Match Rating: A*

After the match, Burchill is irate. He goes over to Heyman and drags him out of the crowd and into the ring. He goes to deliver the C-4.

However, Taz emerges from the crowd and enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TazzOld.jpg

He locks in the Katahajime on Burchill.

Callis: Tazmission! Tazmission!
Gertner: The Tazmaniac and the Mad Scientist are back baby!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ecwonline.jpg

ECW online can confirm that ECW's new mystery signing, who was a top draw for the WWF, will make his debut appearance on the first Revolution after Guilty As Charged. No public references have been made to a possible identity.

[The Stallion]

OK, sorry I havn't posted recently but now I am caught up and I have to say Im liking what you are doing. The return of Taz to the ring with what looks like Heyman as his manager (hey you got that idea from me:D ), The new signee (which I will get to my predictions here in a minute) and the overall flow of the shows have been getting better every time you post. I have a feeling that the signee with be Justin Credible with how much Bam Bam fawns over him in the Bam Bam Exam. Also I have a gut feeling that Steph is gonna turn on Michaels. You keep giving hints everyweek and when she said that she will still be holding the champions hand after the PPV I knew it! The only question is will she be holding Ravens hand or RVD's!? Cant wait for the next card brother!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JoeyStyles.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ScottHudson.jpg

Joey: Hello and welcome to ECW F' The Mainstream. I'm Joey Styles alongside my broadcast colleague, Scott Hudson.
Hudson: Thanks Joey. Tonight's show is the last stop before Guilty As Charged and it's full steam ahead!
Joey: Absolutely, we have some amazing matches scheduled. Guerrero, Benoit, Jericho and Christian, who will all be involved in that huge tag match at Guilty As Charged, will be in action tonight. So will Vito and Chris Daniels, who also face one another tommorrow night.
Hudson: But, possibly the best bit of all, we get to find out who Lyger's challenger for the I.A.C. belt will be in a number one contendership match.

Salvatore and Brandon are in the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/SalvatoreThomaselli.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrandonThomaselli.jpg

Sal: Our brother, Vito, can sadly not be with us tonight because he has a singles match later on. However, this shall not stop us from subjecting the Briscoe Boys to justice!

http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/SalvatoreThomaselli.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/BrandonThomaselli.jpgvs.http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/JayBriscoe.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/MarkBriscoe.jpg

The Iron Saints quickly flee the ring.

Bubba: Last month, at Anarchy Rulz, you only defeated us thanks to interference and it didn't prove anything. You see, my brother and I are still looking to shut your self righteous mouths. So, this time it's gonna be up our street. At Guilty As Charged it will be My brother and me against you two ass holes in a Flaming Tables Match! You wil learn not to cross the D-DD-DD-D-D

A "What's your name?" chant begins.

Bubba: D-DD-D-DDDD-D

D-Von Slaps him.

Bubba: Dudleys!

Bob Artese: The following contest is one fall and a number one contender's match for the International All Action Title. To my left, from Kumamoto Japan, Hayabusa. And, to my right, representing the Cult Of Sasuke, from Michinoku Japan, The Great Sasuke.

Shane Douglas and Francine are backstage for a shoot promo.

Douglas: Kensuke Sasaki, you've been on a real roll but that doesn't mean you can handle The Franchise! You see, it doesn't matter how many lesser wrestlers you beat; I am the first creditable opponent you have had to face and you will not beat me! The Franchise will walk into Madison Square Garden as the World Television Champion and The Franchise will walk out as the World Television Champion.

He laughs loudly as Francine kisses him on the cheek.

Pag: We are here to announce a late addition to the pay-per-view card. Abyss and Goliath will face Big Stevie Tool and Hollywood Over for the World Tag Team Titles.

Both Giants nod and clench their fists.

Pag: You see, tommorrow will be a glorious night for us. Raven will regain his World Title and these two behemoths beside me will win the Tag Titles. We will truly dominate ECW!

Disembodied Voice: I wouldn't be so sure of that!

Pag: Oh yeah, says who?

Paul E. appears from the crowd, with a microphone in hand and enters the ring.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/PaulHeyman.jpg

Heyman: Says me, bitch!

Abyss goes to flatten Heyman.

Heyman: If you lay one finger on me, I will sue you for grievous assault because you will be breaking the law by attacking a member of the public who is not under contract!

Raven restrains the giant.

Pag: Paul, I don't know how you got that microphone and I don't want to know but, the fact is, you don't belong here!

A deafening "Paul E" chant begins.

Heyman: Forgive me if I'm incorrect but it sounds like ten thousand people disagree with you!

Pag: Frankly, I don't give a f**k what they think. We're in charge now and whatever we say goes!

Heyman: Now, I'm not so sure there either.

Suddenly Taz runs in from the crowd.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/TazzOld.jpg

He applies the Katahajime on Pag as Heyman steps back and laughs. Pag's associates try and break Taz's hold with as little force as possible so there are no grounds for legal reprisal.

However, Shawn Michaels and RVD come running out.
http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/ShawnMichaels3.jpghttp://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j254/charliepag/RobVanDam.jpg

Michaels nearly beheads Raven with a Superkick as RVD clears the ring with the use of a chair.

Hudson: Pag and his lapdogs are heading for the hills.
Joey: Go Paul E!
Hudson: Go Michaels and RVD!
Joey: Oh man, who is gonna win that Triangle Match?
