It's classic corporatese to address a problem people weren't that bothered about, in order to ignore things that people are more bothered about.

How's Hamrick these days?

In many ways, you'd be better off trying to recreate WWECW at this point.

Maybe half the ER roster was just doing an homage to the Zombie.

Ironically enough, it was Credible who posted that Sabu photo on Twitter.

Outlaw Ron Bass was in ECW?

[The Great ML]

More like they dug up The Sheik's corpse and propped it up in a hotel chair. Yikes.

I'd be all for a return of the Zombie.

But I'm semi-serious. If you look at WWECW guys, possibly as part of an angle, and you've got quite a lot of guys you can use - Matt Hardy (yeah I know, but he seems to be doing better), Kevin Thorn, Finlay, Big Daddy V, Shelton, Holly, Chavo, Delaney/Olsen, maybe Morrison. Zeke will probably be available soon enough.

I'm not saying they should use all those guys, but you could do a 'New New Breed' and I'd be surprised if the crowd shat on Matt Hardy and Finlay because they're not "originals". And suddenly you have something a lot closer to a viable roster.

Has Finlay vs Jerry Lynn ever happen? If not that should be on the June 30th show

[londonalan]

I forgot to mention the unbeaten ECW Superstar: Chris 'Braden Walker' Harris.

Finlay would do alright, but an actual ECW-type crowd would shit all over Matt Hardy. Imagine the chants they'd come up with--"Where's your taser?", "You got fat!", "We want Edge!", etc...

If Matt is clean (or not a wreck) he would win them over with work.

Yeah, but what are the chances of that happening?

He seems to be doing better recently, if he deals with the chants he'd be okay. Even when he's a wreck, he's still pretty okay in the ring.

I might check out the Queens show (it's in Corona, about 10 minutes from the 7 train) depending on how masochistic I'm feeling that night and if I want to check out Bestia 666.

He works mostly in the Carolinas these days.  I think he spends most of his time in CWA Pro Wrestling in South Carolina.


IIRC he tried to commit suicide in 2010.  I don't think a train wreck tour like Extreme Reunion would be good for his recovering sense of self.

Bestia 666 stinks, he had a bad match with Trauma 1 which is almost impossible.

[DylanWaco]

Hamerick is still an awesome worker

[The Victator]

I bet Matt and CW could have a really good match. Or Matt vs Scorpio could be great.

Well Lynn vs. Homicide is gonna be good we all know that, BLCK Out vs. Gangstas should be a fun brawl thats what people wanna see from NEw Jack anyway with Natureal Born Killaz playing in the background. I guess its just sitting through the rest of the show.
