The dream match will happen
June 3, 2006


ECW representative Paul Heyman told a worldwide audience Friday night that World Champion Rey Mysterio has accepted a challenge and will put his title on the line June 11th at ECW One Night Stand against Sabu! Heyman, joining Michael Cole and Tazz on commentary for new ECW Superstar Kurt Angle’s farewell match on SmackDown, said Sabu made the challenge and Mysterio said “let’s get it on”.

This match will mark the first time the suicidal, homicidal, genocidal, death-defying Sabu will meet Rey Mysterio. It will be a match of similar high-flying styles, but many believe Sabu’s violent, do anything to win mentality could give him the edge. Mysterio, however, has the heart of a champion and will not go down without a fight!

The WWE Championship is also on the line at One Night Stand with John Cena defending against one of ECW’s newest acquisitions Rob Van Dam. The contract signing for that match will take place Monday night on RAW. Heyman predicts one, if not both titles, will change hands at One Night Stand. If they do Heyman claims they will be re-named the ECW world titles!

Also on SmackDown, Heyman announced that Kurt Angle has issued an open-challenge for One Night Stand. Angle will meet anyone from any brand in a one-on-one match. Heyman told Cole during commentary “Angle means anyone, from anywhere! He doesn’t care if the person’s from a four-sided ring, a six-sided ring or an eight-sided ring. Read into it Cole!”

ECW One Night Stand comes to you live from New York City Sunday Night June 11th on PPV.

dream match?
can't say the thought of these 2 meeting has even crossed my mind.
 
Road Warrior Animal Released

Road Warrior Animal has been released from his WWE deal.
This shouldn't come as a surprise as he really hadn't been used since his days with Heidenreich.

I would like to state for the record that Charlie Haas is a dumbass. :rolleyes:

Lilian was shaken up on RAW after being inadvertently knocked off the ring apron by Charlie Haas. Lilian was diagnosed with a strain and sprain in her wrist, but she will be resume her ring announcing duties tomorrow night at WWE vs. ECW Head to Head. Lilian received a strained and sprained wrist.

I'm especially worried for Rey after watching Sabu's botch job of jumping off the top rope with the chair and doing...a leg drop...or chair slam...or....what the hell was he trying to do anyway?!?!?!? Whatever it was he royally screwed it up.

This whole ECW thing is boring the crap out of me.

Edge and Foley vs Dreamer and Funck...Funk??? Yeah, the man's a legend but he's pissing on his own legend when he comes out and pretends to wrestle. How long did it take him to get into the ring last night on RAW, an hour?

And if ECW is so promising then why do you have to bring in all these WWE stars as the centre pieces of their big PPV?
 
MOG who is that guy that dresses up as Kane, does anyone know

I think its the original Kane cause I always believed there where at least two of them:confused:
Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer says that the "flashback" fake Kane on Monday Night RAW was Drew Hankinson (Freakin Deacon in WWE's Deep South Wrestling developmental territory in Georgia).

the reason everyone boos Cena is because he can't wrestle... he has like 2 moves.
he needs to improve allot before people will accept him as World Champion material.


If fans really cared about how great a wrestler someone is then guys like The Ultimate Warrior, Goldberg, Hogan, Austin, and Batista would never be within sniffing distance of a title whereas Benoit, Angle, HBK, and Orton would always be champs. Personally I think the animosity for Cena has to do less about his limited array of moves and more because he abandoned his old character that made him so popular. Cena’s character used to be colorful he was brash, talked trash, unpredictable (never knowing what he was going to say in his freestyles), and cheated to win thus made him a cool heel to cheer for like The Rock and Austin. However now Cena’s character has become stale by being an over the top humble goody-goody like Rocky Mavia. The other reason I think fans are booing him is because he has had the title waaayyy too long, after awhile fans get tired of seeing the same guy with title. Those two things combined (stale character and having the title too long) are killing Cena. I'm not a psychic, but I believe the day Cena drops his title and goes back to being the Doctor of Thuganomic he will receive the huge pops again that made him popular.

So the Big Show is going to ECW. idk about you guys but I like that idea. I'm really looking forward as to how the new ECW looks.

I could careless The Big Slow just doesn't do anything for me...except when he is receiving an FU or an F-5, which amazes me to see someone lift The Big Slow's fat ass on their shoulders.

I heard that ECW is going to have more of a MMA (mixed martial arts) look to it, which is why they chose Kurt because many believe that Kurt has the greatest probability of giving the matches an MMA look a la Undertaker and Kurt at No Way Out 2006....but then again it's just a rumor that I read on the Internet, which means you can't always believe it.

Speaking of MMA I heard that Lesnar wants to try his hand at MMA.....is there anyone else who knows if his current wrestling promotion in Japan has allowed him to compete in MMA?
 
i don't think there's anything wrong with Cena's character but I do agree that he has had the title way to long. someone's going to lose there title this sunday, I have a feeling that Sabu is going to win but not so sure about RVD, i would like to see him win but who knows what Vince wants to happen.
 
I can see why you like the character of the Chain Gang General (Cena). His over the top humble goody-goody routine is a throwback to the way babyfaces used to be, which appeases to a lot of traditional wrestling fans that are still partial to the way babyfaces traditionally behaved as opposed to today’s babyfaces that have more of an edge. Personally though I’m a guy that likes wrestlers who have an edge and lot of depth to their character, unfortunately I believe Cena lost both (edge and depth to his character) about a year ago.

I disagree with you about Sabu beating Rey this Sunday, because I find it hard to think that a guy who won the belt at Wrestlemania drops the belt after only one successful title defense (JBL at Judgement Day). History indicates that the people whose initial title reign began at WM hold on to the belt for awhile so I think Rey will be champ for at least another month before he loses the belt. However, if Rey continues at his current rate Sabu will beat him…heck I would probably bet that Mickie James might be able to beat Rey right now. It seems like every match Rey is in lately he gets his ass kicked (Khali, Kane, Angle last week, RVD last night)…is it just me or does anyone else think that the Brooklyn Brawler is really the guy under the mask since Rey won the title? Having Rey lose so frequently is just stupid….the guy is supposed to be the champ and yet since he won the title he can’t beat anyone. I really like Rey and at first I was excited to see his initial title run, but seeing him lose every week takes the fun out of seeing Rey as the champ.

I do agree with you about someone dropping the belt at One Night Stand and I think it will be Cena who drops the belt to solidify ECW as a creditable promotion. A lot of ECW critics believe ECW is just a bunch of WWE rejects so if either Sabu or RVD wins the belt then it gives ECW instant creditability thus changing the mind of ECW critics.

u got more chance of Cena droping than Rey i think although rey has been getting a good kicking lately, so who knows whats gonna happen
 
RVD will beat Cena and rename the WWE title the "ECW World Championship"
this will leave RAW without a championship so they'll bring back the old WWE title belt... maybe have some kind of tournament for it.
that's my guess
 
I don't think Rey and Cena will both win there matches. and I do belive that Cena will be the one to lose cause he's the one that has had the title the longest plus I also feel that RVD deserves to be a champion. and i think a tournament for the wwe title on raw will be fun to watch. Triple H propbly won't be in it sense of what happend last week so who know's who can be champ.
