Hell yeah, Duaner, Wrestlemania 24 was a f**king kick ass show from start to finish, you couldn't really go wrong with it, enjoyed the long ass write ups and the opening segement was godly. Tag Team title match to start of wrestlemania and The Miz and Morrison retain the titles against Deuce and Domino, seemed like a nice encounter, team three comes out and it is Nunzio & The Boogey Man, what a random team but they didn't win so all is well. Charlie Haas and Drue McIntyre actually sounds like it could work to be honest, both are solid workers, they didn't get the win any way. Cactus Jack and Chainsaw Charlie? Mark out moment for sure, they got the win! crap, only a short run, Damn those filthy rednecks. Hardcore Holly and Cody Rhodes now, and yay they didn't win. w00t Yang Time and Mooregasam, hell yeah, new tag team champs! What a f**king way to open the show. Jamie Noble vs Kofi Kingston now, two blokes I wouldn't expect to see on a 'mania card, at least for this years, nice to see they made it in to yours. I am a fan of both and could of gone either way but I am a big Kofi Kingston fan so yay to him getting the win. TV Championship push please. Sid vs Kahli now, jesus, I take it this is where the annual p**s break would take place then? haha. I am happy Sid got the win how ever, I hope you keep using him, maybe give him a run with the world title but I can not see that hapening, but anything can happen. Harry Smith vs Santino Marella, another match I wouldn't of expected to see on the wrestlemania card but hey, at least the Intercontinetal Championship is being defended, nice match these two had and I am happy with the result. Santino as IC Champ is fine in my opinion. Money in the Bank ladder match time and what a ing spot fest of a match, but I love it that way, Matt Hardy is back, ing awesome, costing MVP the Money in the Bank, yay Matt. S**t, he almost killed himself and MVP, f**king hell, match at Backlash please. Kennedy won, so awesome, hope he holds on to the briefcase for a good while before cashing it in. Maybe make his previous dream come true and let him cash it in at Wrestlemania 25. Woman's title match now, don't expect much to be honest, although both woman are solid workers. Seemed like a decent match, shame Beth retain the title, was rooting for Mickie James to get the win and the woman's championship. ECW Television Championship battle royal and check the names that are involved in this one, Chris Harris is a major plus, wouldn't of minded if he got the win, shame he didn't to be honest, however Elijah Burke did, finally getting the notice he deserves. Those two THQ championships are pushing him up the ladder backstage eh? haha. Elijah Burke vs Kofi Kingston for the win tbh. TBC Sorry about that, mom wanted me of the pc so I just posted what I had written out, but now for the rest of the feedback. Ric Flair vs Batista next, can't say it was as good as Flair/Michaels was going to be but a decent match none the less, Batista is growing on me and he can have a decent match depending on who he is working with. Really glad to see Ric Flair win this one, couldn't see him losing his career to Batista, nice to see Flair holding the United States Championship as well, I expect for him to lose the title and career to some rising star then, no idea who tbh. ECW Championship was f**king awesome, I really enjoyed seeing Gregory Helms get a shot at the ECW World Championship, shame he didn't win, would of done him wonders. No idea on who you are going to have to eventually defeat CM Punk, hopefully Helms. Y2J vs Triple H seemed like such a badass match, really glad it happened, it really helped Jericho seeing as this whole "save us" thing sort of failed. I hope Jericho gets a title push now against Shawn Michaels. They could and have put on classic matches so please make it happen. Randy Orton losing the title to Shawn was awesome, I expect it to be one of Shawn's last runs with the belt so I hope he gets a good reign out of it before losing it to who ever, hopefully Jericho. The Undertaker vs Edge was awesome but as usual it had that slight bit taken away from it because everyone expected The Undetaker to win the match, which wasn't your fault. Nice to see 'Taker get a run with the belt and hopefully this title run lasts longer than his last one in real life, damn injury. Reply to WWE - 06?

Good choice to start off, shame Miz and Morrison have to be the first ones in though. Nice use of the superkick from Morrison to eliminate D&D. Nunzio and Boogeyman are a weird, random team, glad they didn't last. Boom! Reality check, Mcintyre ain't good enough for this yet. Jesse and Festus bore me, good on you. HOLY HELL! Chainsaw Charlie and Cactus Jack! YES! New Champions! YES! New Champs again, I love Cade & Murdoch. Thank you got giving the Redneck Wrecking Crew a nice run here, I appreciate that, and giving Yang & Moore the belts was great, well deserved champions,. Great opener.
Despite me hating Kofi Kingston, Jamie Noble kicks ass, so I was looking forward to this match. I loved the block Noble had on the DDT, into the headlock. I was sad to see Kingston pick it up, but the tiger driver and the superplex made Noble still look strong, you better give noble a win against Kofi to even it up though. Glad to hear Khali/Sid was short, Glad Sid won. Bad powerbomb eh, I wonder why?[/sarcasm]
The Smith/Santino match was decent. Seeing Smith hit the thre clotheslines, spinebuster combo was awesome. Damn it, I wanted Santino to lose. Well that sucks. Lots of nice action, you got the multiple brawls down pat. Nice to see the opening/middle isn't spot oriented. I still enjoy the actual MITB matches that are, but you did something different. Stinger Splash! Nice move Mr. Benjamin. Matt Hardy coming back was cool, but my actual pop for that happened at the actual mania, nice one though. TWIST OF FATE! Off one ladder onto another! I take it back, you went a bit more extreme. The running, leaping T-Bone Benjamin does is always cool, but onto a ladder is just brutal, so sweet! YES! Thank you for giving it to Kennedy! Phoenix/Mickie was disappointing. Good finish, with the fisherman off of catching the mick kic, but Mickie should have won here I think, or looked a lot better.
Television title match was a good one. Everyone had their moment of looking good on the grandest stage of them all, but in the end, it was Elijah, the man who honest to god deserves it, winning. Just didn't like him pinning Harris to do it.
Flair/Batista was a great match. Flair coming out strong early was good, as I could see Batista taking him unseriously and being surprised. Those chops sounded nasty. Flair countering the second spinebuster with the thumb to the eye is classic, and DDT, nice. Glad to see the top rope move succeed from Flair. Flair kicking out of the Batista bomb is awesome, but Flair doing a hurracarana? Please never do that again Ric. Figure four, it's over. I really thought he's get out of it at least once, I mean, Flair got out of a batista bomb. Good match aside from Batista looking like a bit of a ****.
Helms went for nightmare way too early, cost him I think. The superkick was a nice start, but going for a second was dumb, Punk was expecting it. Nice combination to end it, and Punk retains. I'd have loved to see Helms win, but Punk is still cool, just not as cool as my main man Helms
Wow, explosive start to Jericho/HHH. You can tell they both really want this. NO FREAKIN WAY, Lionsault through the announce table! That is epic! You are using the term dead too much tonight though, but you'd be a decent commentator, you'd probably actual defend your subway. Back to the match, the whole stretcher bit was pretty sweet, Jericho wants blood! Good one HHH, avoiding that Lionsault. The knee, NO! Damn Walls of Jericho! Good match, I was just pulling for the Game.
Didn't read fully through Taker/Edge, sorry, I read the result, and once I confirmed the predictable, I couldn't get into it, the streak pisses me off. The ending seemed too unrealistic here, but original, I'm sure it was a great match. Now, on to the main event.
Classic beginning with the staredwon, and the punch off. Sweet stuff, starts off the match crazy. Ooh. Bulldog off the top, the fans can boo Orton all they want for the resthold, but it is good psychology, especially after the bulldog, and the knee to the head is a good touch. Orton is coming in with a smart game plan. I loved the exchange there with Michaels avoiding the RKO, Orton blocking the chin music and replying with an RKO, and the kickout. Super Rko would have ended it, but HBK had a good block, and crossbody was great. SWEET CHIN MUSIC! NO! IT ISN'T OVER! Submission victory was great, HBK as champion will kick ass.
Awesome show Duaner, you deserved this reply, just return one for Final Resoluition

Wresltemania was amazing. Every match had very good detail especially the Tag Team Turmoil. I loved every match and im happy with the results. However, I would of liked to see DH Smith win but its not a big deal. Glad Ric Flair won, I would of killed myself if Batista ended Flair's career. Sid, Kingston, and Kenedy winning is sexy and delicious, as is Elijah Burke TV Champion. Also glad that CM Punk, Jericho, Undertaker, and Michaels won there matches. Overall the show was amazing and a good write up. Keep up the brilliant work! Reply to TNA 2008?

Did you just read the winners, seriously man, when it comes to PPVs you need to give a better reply than that. If I returned a reply to you from this, I'd probably only give you like 3 sentences, because it doesn't deserve more than that.

Wrestlemania was a great show top to bottom Duanizzle.
The opener was a fun way to start things off, I marked at Foley/Cactus and thought they should've went the distance tbh, although Yang/Morrison was a nice choice as well.
I love what you are doing with Kofi and the Kofi/Kelly pairing is nice, glad he picked up the win.
Sid/Khali was meh, don't like either guy.
Santino/Smith sounded nice and glad Santino picked up the win, I lol'd at Santino tripping up the ramp.
MITB sounded f'n awesome man, some great spots and the Hardy return was great as was him just laying into MVP. Kennedy picking up the win is cool and looking forward to where you take it.
Phoenix/James was a nice cooldown from MITB and glad Phoenix retained although I wonder where you head with her.
Battle Royal was nice and glad my boy Elijah picked up the victory.
Flair/Batista sounded nice and the ending was good, although I wonder how you'll go with Flair after this if he's not retiring at Mania.
Triple H/Jericho sounded awesome, although my personal preference is Triple H, although the way it ended was nice and it can elevate Jericho to higher things.
Edge/Taker was great as it couldn't really be bad. I was pulling for Edge to pick up the victory in one of these 2008 diaries and now since yours is likely the last one to include mania XXIV in it, I guess we'll never see it. Any way great match.
Michaels/Orton was a good match, although I would've prefered Edge/Taker to close it out. The match sounded great and glad HBK picked up the victory.
Overall great write-up can't wait for more.

You got The Fink to announce 'Mania! I love you forever. Mac's review of Duaner's WWE 2008 pay-per-view 'WrestleMania 24'[/b] - WWE Tag Team ChampionshipsWow, that was written out beautifully. I was hoping that Miz and Morrison would go through undefeated, but I liked how you wrote out the finishes, so all is forgiven. Yang and Moore deserve the straps. Jamie Noble vs. Kofi KingstonNoble/Kingston sounded great. I am a fan of both, so I really didn't mind which you put over. I was kinda pulling for Noble during the match, but Kingston winning makes much more sense. Sid vs. The Great KhaliSeems like the WrestleMania throw away match, tbh. I'm glad you didn't put Khali over Sid. Santino Marella vs. D.H. Smith - Intercontinental ChampionshipI'm glad that you've got Santino actually wrestling proper matches. I'm not really into Smith, so you're gonna have to push him decently for him to get my attention, and you've done it pretty well. Saying that, I'm happy Santino is still champion. Money in the Bank Ladder MatchKennedy wins it again? Le sigh, Mr. Duaner. ;[ I was hoping that MVP would get the win, but I guess if you've got adequate plans for Kennedy I see no problem with him winning, other than, oh yeah, HE SUCKS. : P Some great memorable spots during the match too. Beth Phoenix vs. Mickie James - Women's ChampionshipSounded like a great match on paper, but I am disappointed that it was so short. Beth retaining is a plus. Battle Royal - ECW Television ChampionshipAgain, great write-up and booking Duaner. Props to you having Elijah win, and hopefully giving him the push he deserves. [/ul] To be continued..

I could have sworn I left a reply here, Duaner. Wrestlemania had a fantastic write-up, and was ing awesomely booked. I agree with every decision you made, and Burke winning the TV title is sex. Nice to see Phoenix retain too, and Yang/Moore winning is a plus. Undertaker and HBK winning is godly. <333

Bro, Wrestlemania was absolutely amazing! I loveddddd that Flair won. So glad to see Both Taker and Michaels win gold as well! Liked Kennedy winning MITB. Hopefully he cashes in, wins, and has a decent reign as champ. Everything was well written out, and the detail was amazing.
(Thanks for the little note after the opening promo crediting me. I'm glad i can influence good writers like you with some good ideas.)
Overall, it was an amazing show, Duaner.
Drop a reply to my WWE '07 - '08 please.

(Credit: Ricky) 3/31/08--Results (Orlando, FL)RAW opens with a video package revolving around Wrestlemania 24! It highlights the pyro from the beginning, all the way to Shawn Michaels' win over Randy Orton. They went over the RAW side with details, showing the Intercontinental Championship, Money In the Bank, Women's Championship, Chris Jericho defeating Triple H, and finally, the WWE Championship match. They really go over Shawn Michaels defeating Orton and the celebration afterward. Then, the RAW opening airs and we go live to Orlando! Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler welcome us to the fallout of the biggest event of the year. And what a night it was! We saw some great matches, especially from the Raw side of things. Jim Ross then mentions Randy Orton's challenge to Michaels for Backlash. Also tonight, we will hear from the new 'Money in the Bank' Ken Kennedy. And, in action tonight, Carlito will face off with Chris Jericho, less than 24 hours after Jericho defeated Triple H.
Speak of the devil, Triple H was the first person out tonight. The crowd just boos him, as he makes his way to the ring, with his head in a bandage. He waits a few moments before the crowd quiets down. He said that last night was one of the worst nights of his life. He adds that he isn't going to hide the fact that he got his ass handed to him last night and he was going to give Chris Jericho credit. But, Triple H said that Chris Jericho has always been a guy to give cheap shots and that is what he did last night. He put Triple H through a table, before the match really got underway. Now, how fair is that? After that, DH Smith, out of all people, makes his way down to the ring. The game gives him the dirtiest look and Smith takes the microphone. Smith tells Triple H that he was flat out beat last night and he needs to live with it. Smith admits that Santino got the best of him and he lost. But Smith didn't come out here and complain about it. So, Triple H should just shut up and just live with the fact that he cannot beat Jericho. Right then, Triple H throws a right hand at Smith and then a running knee. BANG! Pedigree! Triple H walks out and Smith is laying dead in the ring.Santino Marella v. Val VenisWe open up Raw tonight, with a squash match. But, it did serve its purpose. Marella came out to boos, but still had the Intercontinental Championship around his waist. Venis got a decent hand and maybe he should come back full time. Marella hit about 3 moves before nailing the swinging neckbreaker. He picked up the win, shocker, and then started celebrating around with his belt. Winner: Santino Marella Afterward, Marella was celebrating his easy win and Jeff Hardy's theme hits. Hardy comes out, the fans start to cheer, and he grabs a microphone. He told Marella that he is all healed and he is coming back for his championship. Marella said that he can just not walk back in like that. Later tonight, Jeff will have to face one of Santino's friends. If he wins, Santino will give him a shot. Hardy likes the idea and we cut away.
A video recapping Beth's win at Wrestlemania aired. It showed a good portion of the high spots of the match. This led to Todd Grisham backstage with Beth Phoenix herself. Todd asked Beth if she had any idea who her next challenger was and she just shrugged him off. She said that no matter who it is, they will fall to the Glamazon. She walked off and Todd sent it back down to ringside.Drew McIntyre & Charlie Haas v. Trevor Murdoch & Lance CadeBoth of these teams participated in the tag team turmoil at Wrestlemania 24 and the Redneck Wreckcrew had a shortlived reign as WWE Tag Team Champions. McIntyre & Haas were playing the somewhat faces in this match and the crowd gave them some cheers, since they hate their opponents. McIntyre & Cade started off and Cade got the best of him. A few big clotheslines followed by a full nelson slam. McIntyre looked down until he managed to duck a lariat and give Cade two knees to the gut. He tagged Haas in and Haas went to work on the lower legs. Quickly, Murdoch ran in and hit two gigantic elbows to Haas and threw him out the ring. McIntyre flew in with a flying forearm and he battled with Murdoch. Cade did regroup and hit a big lariat on McIntyre. Murdoch pursued McIntyre on the outside, leaving Cade with Charlie Haas, who has just crept back into the ring. Haas gives him an Exploder and actually picks up the three! Upset over the more experienced team! McIntyre and Haas rushed out of the ringside area before Cade or Murdoch could get their hands on them. Winners: Charlie Haas & Drew McIntyre A video recap of Vince's announcement last week aired. Then graphic reminding everyone of the 3 hour Raw next week, because it is draft time!
Ken Kennedy made his way out to the ring when we came back from break and he wasn't welcomed too warmly. He did carry the cash high above his head and the crowd continued to boo. He waited for the crowd to quiet and then told them that the real "Mr. Money In The Bank" is back at the helm. He can use this anytime he wants, he desires, he feels the need. He wasn't going to let anyone take it away from him this time and he will be very careful about who he uses it against. The crowd boos as Kennedy celebrates with the briefcase and we cut back to commercial.
Santino Marella makes his way back to the ringside area. He told the crowd that if Jeff Hardy is able to defeat this man, then he will get a shot at Santino's Intercontinental Championship at Backlash! Jeff Hardy makes his way to the ring, with Santino's ex-girlfriend, Maria and they await who Santino as chosen. Then, John 'Bradshaw' Layfield's music hits and out comes the limo. The crowd boos as Santino smiles and Jeff gets himself pumped.Jeff Hardy v. John 'Bradshaw' LayfieldJeff ran right at JBL and gave him a front dropkick. Crowd was already kicking as Jeff stomped his way at JBL. He climbed the top and went for a corkscrew, but was burnt as JBL moved. Now, it was slowed down momentarily. JBL locked in a headlock and kept it applied, to wear down Jeff. He broke it and just hammered on the freshly repaired arm of Jeff and he looked to try and re-injure it. Crowd tried to get Jeff right back into the match, but nothing was going for him. JBL hit plenty of short-armed clotheslines and wnet for a big backbreaker, but Jeff got out of it and nailed a corkscrew dropkick. He then gave JBL a sit-down jawbreaker and the double leg drop to the groin area. Jeff is on fire now and Santino is not liking it on the outside. He tried to distract the ref, but Jeff knocked him off the apron and was met with a big boot. JBL then lined him up for the clothesline from hell, but Jeff ducked and hit a Twist of Fate. He climbed to the top and nailed a Swanton Bomb! He gets the 3 and Santino is pissed! Jeff celebrated with Maria in the center of the ring, as Santino yelled at the crowd. Winner: Jeff Hardy Randy Orton appeared on the titan tron before the crowd. He told them he would love to be there, but he is back in St.Louis, taking care of personal problems. But, the reason he used his rematch clause so quickly, is because he wants to get his belt back as fast as he can. Shawn Michaels better watch out, because he will end his career. Then, they show the new WWE Champion, backstage, watching this. He has the old school WWE Undisputed belt design back. He smirked and said, "It's Showtime!" to the camera.
A Wrestlemania recap video aired.
Followed by a Backlash promo.Main Event- Chris Jericho v. CarlitoThe crowd is buzzing for Jericho, since its been only 24 hours since he put that brutal attack on Triple H. Carlito came out first, still got a few cheers, but mostly boos. The countdown begins and out comes the savior of the WWE, Chris Jericho! Jericho comes down to a mega response and he looks pumped, but hurting at the same time. He went threw hell last night and it is showing. These two lock up and neither can get an advantage. They go for it again and Jericho put him in the corner and goes to work on his chest. He runs at him and goes for a dropkick, but Carlito moved and Jericho is hurting. Carlito then climbed to the top and nailed a double stomp, which looked awesome and the crowd loved it. Carlito then worked over Jericho's back and chest with various holds and kicks to the chest. Chris is hurting still and the crowd tries to help him battle out of it. Carlito goes for the 180 springboard, but Jericho moves and hit the inverted backbreaker. Jericho then hits the Lionsault really otu of nowhere, but only gets a two count. He nails the Codebreaker and Carlito is done. Jericho gets the 3 and starts to celebrate. Carlito rolled out the ring and got a chair and nailed Jericho in the back 3 times before hitting a backstabber on the chair. Raw ends with Jericho lying motionless in the ring. Winner: Chris Jericho

Have missed alot of stuff but reading from the latest Raw. Nice banner btw. Nice opener. Marella vs. Venis, eww... Nice tag match and I like the team of Haas and Drew, something different. Main Event looked good, and Y2J picked up the win, how much better can it get. I was expecting Helmsley to show up at the end and pedigree Jericho.
Backlash is looking decent with 2 matches so far. RKO/HBK could be great. Not liking Marela/Hardy though. Hopefully Hardy wins the IC title.

Nice opening on RAW, I liked DH Smith coming out as it was unexpected but I knew he would get Pedigree'd. Venis lost again! I hope he kinda gets a push soon, don't like seeing him lose in every diary I look in lol Haas and McIntrye is an interesting team, I'm surprised they beat The Rednecks! Hardy/Marella at Backlash is looking good, nice build up here. Oh yeah and I forgot to mention about the draft. It should be interesting to see who goes and who stays on what show. Glad Jericho won the main event but I do have a couple things to moan about. I thought the Beth Phoenix interview was kinda pointless, cos I mean it never really went anywhere. I was expecting to see her in a match or watching a womens tag match or summin later on and coming out and attacking them or something, but nothing happened. Also, I thought Triple H/DH Smith should have been signed to a match, like RAW would in real life. That seemed kinda pointless as well. Apart from that though, it was a really good show.

(credit: Ricky) 4/1/08-- Results (Miami, FL)ECW opens up with a small, but straight to the point, package recapping Wrestlemania, which was two short days ago. They highlight the hard battle between Kofi Kingston and Jamie Noble, with Kofi coming out victorious yet again over Noble. Then, some spots of the Money In the Bank were covered. The ECW Television Championship battle royal was gone over, with Elijah Burke becoming the new champion. And finally, the ECW World Championship, where CM Punk once again retained his championship over another challenger in Helms. He gave him the GTS and it was all done for Gregory. The package ends with Punk standing over Helms. The ECW opening now airs and we go live to Miami! Crowd is rockin' tonight, and a pretty packed house. Styles & Tazz join us for commentary, as we get set for the ECW fallout of Wrestlemania! Before Styles & Tazz could talk, Elijah Burke graced us with his presence....
Burke said that just two days ago, he survived a battle royal with 9 other superstars, to win this beautiful championship. Crowd boos him, but Burke continues to talk. He says that he will be best ECW television champion ever and he will bring style back to the Dub. He continues to ramble on and on about how he the best in ECW and no one can stop him. Armando Estrada comes down on the ramp and tells Burke that he better not get too comfortable with that belt, because he will be defending it tonight, against a man who is more deserving than ever...Tommy Dreamer! Crowd erupts for this announcement and Estrada announces that this will be our main event. We cut to commercial after this.Chris Harris v. NunzioJoke of a "match", if you could call it one. Nunzio was in the ring when we came back and out came 'Wildcat' Chris Harris. He got a decent hand, but nothing big. A few jabs, a couple of forearms, right into a german suplex. He stomped away at the head of Nunzio and gave him a DDT. Crowd was iffy on this match and didn't really give it a reaction. He lined him up for a superkick and then something he likes to call the Catatonic, which is basically a swinging side slam. He gets the easy 3 and Nunzio is knocked out. Harris celebrated the squash. Winner: Chris Harris A hype video for the 'Real Double J' Jayden Jeter. He said that he is coming to save ECW from guys like Tommy Dreamer, Chris Harris, and the worst of them all, CM Punk. Crowd booed him and he noted that he should be arriving....shortly.
A video recap of Wrestlemania aired. They went over the money in the bank match, which sent us to...
Shelton Benjamin backstage with Lena Yada. Shelton took the microphone from her and demanded to know why Tommy Dreamer, a man who got his ass kicked on sunday, gets a title shot, and the black man, Shelton Benjamin, gets nothing. He says that Armando Estrada is always keeping him down and he is sick of it. Just then, the ECW Champion, CM Punk passes by and sees this. He tells Benjamin that he was impressed at his stuff in the MITB match and he does deserve a shot. Punk said he doesn't have a challenger for his belt and Benjamin looks deserving. He tells Benjamin that if he survives the draft next week, he will be more than happy to give him a shot. Gregory Helms approaches and tells both men that Helms deserves a shot, but he hopes he is drafted to a better show, because being on the "C" show makes him sick. All 3 men stare each other down, until Helms leaves for his match, which is next!Gregory Helms v. 2 Cold ScorpioSurprisingly the match of the night! These two light heavyweights really stole the crowd, with some flashy moves. Helms came out first and the crowd booed him. He didn't care and just walked down to the ring. 2CS got a great hand from the crowd and worked them over well. They locked up and automatically Scorpio hit him with a few elbows then a single leg take down. Big knee to the back and a leg drop. Fast pace action here from Scorpio, but Helms bought him back to earth with a few kicks to the gut. He was then thrown into the corner and Helms planted a few forearms and knees to the midsection. 2CS got a boot up as Helms ran at him for something and he climbed to the top and nailed a front flip. It got a two count! Helms barely escaped it. 2CS kept working on the midsection for quite awhile, leaving the crowd to cheer him as he did it. Helms did eventually catch him though and gave him a step-up kick and it was followed by the shining wizard. Helms didn't want to take any chances and hit the Nightmare on Helms Street and picked up the win! Very even match and 2CS came very close to winning! Helms posed up the ramp as the crowd booed. Winner: Gregory Helms A video hyping the draft on monday. Raw will be a special 3 hour edition and it will feature superstars from all brands. Someone can earn their brand a draft pick in each match!
Colin Delaney hype here.
Elijah Burke was walking in the corridor with his belt over his shoulder. His match is next!Main Event- ECW Television Championship- Elijah Burke v. Tommy DreamerQuicker match than expected. Crowd was really pulling for Tommy to get the win here, but if Burke has anything to do with it, it will be tough. Dreamer came out first and he was all bandaged up. Crowd gave him the biggest pop of the night and he was very appreciative. The television champion was next and he received the exact opposite reaction. Burke went straight for Dreamer's injured shoulder and everyone knew that Dreamer didn't have a shot. Burke used various holds and armbars to stretch out the shoulder of Dreamer. Dreamer did get some offense in the middle of the match, hitting his pattened DDT, but Burke got out of it. Burke then gave him the Elijah Experience, followed by the Express and Dreamer was dead. Burke retains. Winner: Elijah Burke Afterward, Burke celebrated when Kofi Kingston came down to the ring. He said that he was pissed about being left off the card tonight, even though he defeated Jamie Noble. He said he wants to taste some WWE gold and he is coming for Elijah Burke. Burke better watch his back. ECW ends with Kingston smiling at Burke, as the crowd cheers for Kofi.

MVP/Matt Hardy News; FCW Updates; New signees?; & More!-I have added the FCW roster on the first page. Go have a look.
-Matt Hardy & MVP are supposed to carry out their program until the end of the summer. This should be interesting to see how they can pull this off.
-Word is that John Cena is healthy right now and was almost bought back on RAW, but they kept him back. No word on his return.
-WWE is looking at some Indy talent to be signed.
-Big Show has contacted the WWE about coming back to work with the ECW brand.
...Til Next Time!

Banners look great, makes the show look alot better imo. Nice to see Harris pick up another win, would like to see him and Burke have a feud for the belt.
as big of a CM Punk fan as I am, it would have been cool to see Helms win the belt, but I still think your going to eventually put it on him anyway. Can't wait to see what changes you do on the draft show for Raw.

I cant wait for the draft, and hopefully there are some shockers. ECW was good, nice to see Burke retain the TV title, and a feud with Kingston could be good. Good to see Helms and Harris both getting wins, and I hope Helms gets another shot at gold soon.

The banners are lookin' great for rosters, and show results, Duan. Harris over Nunzio was predictable, and the debut of Jayden Jeter looks nice. I see Jayden when I went to SD! back in October, and he really impressed me. Holy shit, Punk/Benjamin/Helms is sickkkk. Loved the segment, and hopefully you don't draft any of them. HELMS FTW! I didn't expect Burke to lose the TV title so soon, so Burke winning is good. Cool beans.
