Extreme obstacles
October 24, 2006

Giant victory

On the last ECW on Sci Fi, Rob Van Dam got the break he’s been looking for as he was able to come out on top of Big Show to earn an ECW World Title shot. ECW.com has learned that RVD will challenge the Extreme Giant for his gold this week on Sci Fi. Will the World's Largest Athlete make good on his guarantee to Van Dam? How will Big Show react to being pinned last week by RVD? Can the most dominant athlete in ECW continue his destruction? Or will the massive Extremist come face-to-face with reality?

Making impact

During last week's main event, Test made his allegiance clear when he ran into the ring and hit RVD with a chair, becoming just another obstacle Van Dam had to survive to reach his goal. But where does Hardcore Holly stand after taking out both Test and Big Show? The Extremist who had been keeping RVD from getting a shot at the title became the man RVD might not have been able to do it without. Has Holly's medical suspension been lifted? What will transpire between Test and Holly on ECW on Sci Fi this week? What is next for Paul Heyman’s most recent right-hand man, ECW's Impact Player Test?

Will Striker strike back?

In the first-ever Singapore Cane-on-a-Pole Match, Sandman made Matt Striker sorry he ever got involved with the ECW Original. Is the rivalry resolved or will the teacher find a way to strike back?

Knox is jealous, Punk

After CM Punk topped Rene Dupree for the second straight week, Mike Knox made an appearance. The jealous Extremist, however, backed off in his attack. CM Punk has had the edge so far in this rivalry, but Knox doesn’t appear to be ready to back off for good. How far will Knox’s jealousy take him?

Find out the answers to all of these questions and more on ECW on Sci Fi at 10/9 CT.


And the Main Event's a Ladder Match.

WWE.com
 
At the behest of Paul Heyman, Rob Van Dam must defeat Big Show in a Ladder Match tonight in order to cinch his contract for an ECW World Title Match.

Can RVD leave ECW on Sci Fi with the title opportunity he rightfully earned one week ago?



Hope this episode rocks... I've heard that Heyman is going to get more control of ECW. I hope he does because he can make a hell of a PPV even with the roster he already has.

ECW was great tonight, I feel the show is starting to finally pick up some speed. The first PPV is about two months away so it's time to get the ball rolling. The Holly/Test match was a bit strange. I felt it was really sluggish at some points and awkward but overall, it was good. They really need to move on from the Holly gash from three weeks ago. I think everyone knows how tough he is, suffering that deep gash during his match with RVD and still continuing to wrestle despite possibly getting another infection, but come on. How many weeks have we been reminded of that exact thing? About every week since it happened. They're almost making it look like that's the only extreme thing that's happened on this brand.

The Punk/Striker match had some features some good mat wrestling and counters. I kind of wish this had been longer and the Holly/Test match was shorter. After Knox interfered, brawled with Punk, and then ran away, I kind of grimaced, wondering if they'll have good matches or not. Knox still seems about so developmental still.

The main event was really good and I enjoyed it. I'm thinking RVD will "cash in" his contract at Cyber Sunday maybe. At least I hope so.

ECW great, huh? Glad you enjoyed it. I've heard that Heyman's got more control over it now. Hope when Stephanie returns, it shouldn't affect Heyman nor ECW at all.

And if RVD should cash that contract, let him use it at December To Dismember. Have Big Show lose the title there and he might get involved in a new feud prior to Wrestlemania 23 (Hogan? o_O Because maybe WWE will try to re-enact that Hogan-Andre bodyslam).

Now, that is exactly what is going wrong with the whole WWE.

CM Punk vs. Matt Striker is a good match (duh...they proved it...). That should be the "destination" match, with Punk running all over Knox as the "setup", NOT the other way around!

Once you see Punk have to work around Knox, and compare it to the Punk-Striker match, it will become clear. You'll be thinking, "why are they choosing to push this match over the other one?!".

I only caught the Holly/Test match and RVD/Show match. I was surprised to see RVD in another Number 1 contenders shot. I guess since they already jobbed the Sandman to Show and Angle got fired, ther's no one else to face him now.

Holly/Test match was booring :tired:

STAY HYPED!!!
This was the first ECW show I watched in about a month. SVU aired a repeat this month, so I flipped it over to ECW. Maybe I'm being cynical again, but it doesn't look like much has changed from the last time I watched. I was upset that I didn't get to see Thorn and Ariel, as the two had an interesting act the last time I watched.

ECW desperately needs a secondary title. Guys like Punk, Test, Knocks, Sandman, Thorn, and the other regular faces could be feuding for the ECW TV title (or whatever title WWE wishes to create) instead of fighting without getting anywhere.

Can Big Show even climb a ladder? Unless memory is failing me, I don't recall him even trying. RVD should be getting the title back in December. I expect him to feud against Hardcore Holly for the title through December and January, then start a program with Sabu leading into WrestleMania.

Yeah, I agree, WWECW needs a new title, maybe bring back a TV Title, I miss those from the old ECW and WCW days.

In all seriousness, those ladders have weight limits for them and most don't go up to 500 lbs.

This week’s edition of ECW on Sci Fi scored a 1.6 cable rating with a two share. The shows quarter hours scored 1.6, 1.6, 1.5, 1.5 and 1.7 for the overrun.


I can see next's week ratings raise up if Big Show invites Booker and Cena to next Tuesday's ECW show to keep hyping up the Cyber Sunday Main Event match.

^Possibly but I don't know. I really don't see the ratings increasing unless the ECW title changes hands. Maybe then, they'll go above a 2.0, which is what they were averaging before.
