ECW feedback 7-17-07

Since no one made a thread and I assume some caught some if any of tonights show.

Some outlook.

First match was decent, the Punk/Burke thing kinda has faded out.

Expose - Blah.

Big Daddy V - Reminds me of a Vader character but not as ruthless. Don't care for the Abyss finisher. Isn't that two moves they are using that he does? Yep. Not that I'm here to start a discussion on stealing moves, since it's been going on for a long time.

Thorn/Dreamer - Even though I'm a fan of Dreamer, I've said it at since Thorn wrestled again. Thorn has proved himself to me that he can face more than the same people each week.

Nitro segment - One of the first times I heard him get that much time to cut a promo which was good. Not a fan or anything but it's good see him have better mic skills than the last champion.

I also read that Nitro is going to OVW this week. Whether it's just a visit, time will reveal.

When is he switching his theme to a Doors song? Could they want him to look more like Jim Morrison? :lol:

I know right. It's weird that he looks almost like him to.

ECW will never see Johnny Nitro again. At the press conference, Morrison rocked a whole new look. He told our fans he was given his name at birth, and because of it, he was destined to accomplish great things.


Isn't his real name John Hennigan? I don't get the name change for no reason at all.

It's because they think he looks like Jim Morrison and they want to try to make him a "Cool Morrison" ripoff. It's a gimmick.

It's a fabulous new day, yes it is!
I wish Nitro... eh, Morrison get to hold the belt all the way until Survivor Series or something like that. ECW needs to built more faces too. ECW was average, but the Nitro segment was the highlight of the show.

Why change his name? People have become familiar with the Nitro name, so I don't see why it needed to be changed especially to something that sounds like a really generic indy name.

I don't think somebody named "Nitro" is going to go far in a place like WWE. :wink:

All hail King Booker!
I was cooking last night and turned on my TV just in time to catch the last 5 minutes of ECW. It literally is the first time I've watched ECW in months and it wasn't even all that much. Anyway, I see Nitro cutting a promo which wasn't all that great but wasn't terrible, and hear him being called Jon Morrison. He's also sporting a new hairdo which is pretty cute I might add.

I just thought the whole thing was pretty funny. We'll see how far he goes on the ECW brand with a new persona.

A few years ago, everyone was dogging Abyss for stealing the Bossman Slam from the Big Bossman. Now people are dogging Vis for stealing the move from Abyss? It's still Bossman's move to me. Others may use it, but every time I see it I think of Bossman.

Speaking of Big Daddy V, I really dislike how he is now doing the Vader V hand symbol. :angry: But it is nice that they gave him a manager to speak. Why is it that they'll give him and Khali a manager to speak, yet hold back guys like Shelton Benjamin for not being able to speak?

Because he isn't 6 feet and doesn't weigh 400 pounds and can't make Cena look like a fucking Superman by jobbing like a talentless bitch so kids buy his bullshit spinner belts and shirts.

That's basically it.

Yes, I know that. But he can make Cena look like superman by having a match that is, you know, actually watchable. HBK isn't any bigger than Shelton and we saw the great matches the two had together.

HBK can pull the best out of anyone, I don't think Shelton's that experienced do that yet.

Yeah that's true. It's the same move but just the added spin to it that makes it look good or inflict more damage I guess.

Bossman just lifted his opponent and slammed him straight down. I still remember that WM when he did it to Akeem. It was pretty impressive.
