What do you think of the 8/8/06 ECW T.V. show?

I think it was another terrible ECW show and I think it proved once again that the new ECW is trying to bury the original ECW. It was Tommy Dreamer v.s. Mike Knox and Knox defeated Dreamer. The Sandman/Test and Mike Knox match ended with a DQ when The Sandman caned Test and Mike Knox. It proves that WWE is trying to bury the old ECW because when has an original ECW star defeated a new ECW star? When has Tommy Dreamer won a match in the new ECW? When has The Sandman won at match in the new ECW?

The Balls Mahoney promo was pointless and the only reason Balls Mahoney has a job is because The Dudleys put him through a flaming table a few years ago. There was a CM Punk promo but he didn't wrestle and it really doesn't make sense that he didn't wrestle because the CM Punk/Justin Credible match last week was a good match. CM Punk said in the promo that he would be wrestling next week but I think it would make more sense to have him win two weeks in a row instead of just having a CM Punk promo.

The Al Snow/Kevin Thron match was a terrible match and it's another example of the new ECW burying the original ECW. Thron is a terrible wrestler and doesn't have wrestling skill. Thron won the match and Al Snow was made to look like a jobber.

The Kurt Angle/Sabu match was an okay match but I expected more in this match. Angle's new "shoot" wrestling style isn't really a good wrestling style because it's not really technical wrestling. It's more of Angle trying to have a UFC wrestling style and it stops the pace of the match. I think Angle shouldn't use a "shoot" wrestling style and I think the match would have been better if Angle didn't use a "shoot" wrestling style. Rob Van Dam making his return during the match was a cool suprise and I think it will be The Big Show v.s. Rob Van Dam for the ECW title at Summer Slam.
