ECW

DECEMBER TO DISMEMBER '06

Sunday December 3rd, 2006

in Augusta, Georgia - James Brown Arena.

 

- Hosted by Joey Styles & Tazz.

- They opened the PPV with a preview clip focusing on the Elimination Chamber.

- Styles & Tazz were shown along with the usual spanish announce team. I just read that Stevie Richards beat René Duprée in the dark match, which is beyond bad since these two would've been a good addition to the non-existing card.

1) The Hardy Boyz beat MNM (with Melina) at 22:34 when Jeff Hardy pinned Johnny Nitro after a Swanton Bomb.

Styles insisted that this was a one night only deal as the Hardys will focus on their single careers after tonight. Matt started off against Mercury. They started slow and the hot crowd entertained themselves with some chants. At 5:00 Nitro missed his Standing Shooting Star Press. At 5:38 Matt hit a very nice Razor's Edge into a Powerbomb. Melina interfered a couple of times and did her trademark shreek. At 11:00 they all did jumps to the outside, the hot crowd continued to try and relive the magic by forcing a few "ECDub" and "Holy Shit" chants. Jeff then missed a Swanton Bomb and Johnny followed up with a Springboard Dropkick at 12:00. The story of the match is that they all hit new maneuvers they've never or not often done before. At 17:55 Jeff hit a Whisper in the Wind on both members of MNM and then hot tagged Matt to a lame pop. At 19:15 Nitro kicked out after a 2nd rope Legdrop by Matt Hardy. At 20:17 the Hardys hit Stereo Superplexes on both sides of the ring. The bumps looked like they hurt. Melina tried to interfere and she got Dropkicked by Nitro by mistake. MNM hit a Snapshot on Jeff but Matt broke the count at 2.9999. At 22:13 Matt hit a double Stunner and Jeff followed up with a Swanton Bomb on both MNM members. Jeff then pinned Nitro for the win at 22:34. Melina was still down since the Dropkick. They replayed the Dropkick and Nitro hit her right in the face hard.

- They went to a pretaped promo with RVD, an "ECW.com exclusive". He said he knew that the Elimination Chamber was potentially career ending, but the prize is worth it.

- Matt Striker came out for a match against Balls Mahoney. He took the mike and talked about the Elimination Chamber and violence in society. He said that his match tonight would be contested under "Striker Rules" : No eye gouging, no pulling of the hair, no top rope moves, no foul language ...

2) Balls Mahoney beat Matt Striker at 7:22 with a Spinebuster Bomb.

Matt Striker wore a picture of his face on the back of his trunks. At 1:30 Balls tried a jujigatame, but Striker caught the ropes. Striker wrestled a technical match focusing on Balls arm and when the crowd boo'ed him he actually screamed back : "It's wrestling!". Balls tried a top rope maneuver but Striker crotched him. Striker tried a Fujiwara armbar but Balls caught the ropes. At 7:22 Balls pinned Striker out of nowhere with a Spinebuster Bomb.

- A commercial aired for the December Fanatic Series, "Loose Canon - The Brian Pillman story".

- They showed CM Punk training backstage for tonight's main event.

- Sabu was found backstage knocked out. People were tending to him. Paul Heyman came in to see what happened, nobody knew. He said that he needed to be ready for the main event. Crowd chanted BS.

3) Sylvester Terkay & Elijah Burke beat The FBI (with Trinity) at 6:41 when Burke pinned Mamaluke after the "Elijah Experience".

 

Elijah took the mike before the start of the match and welcomed everyone to the "Elijah Experience". He said that tonight they will leave their mark like wild animals in heat. The FBI are Little Guido Maritato & Tony Mamaluke. Trinity came out in her red dress full of holes. She has an impressive body but is the ultimate case of Butterface. Tazz & Styles were having fun on commentary then stopped abruptly and started talking about Sabu in somber tones. It's almost as if you could hear Vince's voice in their earpiece. At 5:00 Elijah hit a sloppy STO on Guido. At 6:41 Burked pinned Mamaluke after the "Elijah Experience" (=Face First Side Russian Leg Sweep =The Stroke). After the match Terkay hit a Muscle Buster on Guido. A big "TNA" chant (just a couple of guys actually, but next to a mike) could be heard since it's Samoa Joe's move, and The Stroke is Jarrett's.

 

- RVD and CM punk looked on worried as Sabu was taken in an ambulance.

 

- They aired a plug for WWE Raw.

 

4) Daivari (with The Great Khali) beat Tommy Dreamer at 7:23 with a Roll-Up.

 

Before the match, Daivari did some mike work in farsi. At 2:20 the ref ejected Khali from ringside after interfering. Daivari pleaded with the ref, but it was too late. At 6:08 Dreamer hit a Slop Drop for a 2 count. Dreamer set Daivari up for his DDT but Daivari rolled him up out of nowhere for the pin. After the match Khali came back and Chokeslammed Dreamer on the steel entrance way. Dreamer took a sick bump. Refs and officials came out, Dreamer said "I can't feel my feet". The announcers played it up but Dreamer got back up without help and then crawled to the back.

 

- A commercial for the "See No Evil" DVD aired.

 

- Paul Heyman went backstage to see Hardcore Holly. He told him that he'll be Sabu's replacement in the Elimination Chamber. Holly smiled. Crowd booed.

 

5) Kevin Thorn & Ariel beat Mike Knox & Kelly Kelly in a Mix Tag match at 7:43 when Ariel pinned Kelly.

 

Before the match, Kelly Kelly wished CM Punk the best of luck for his match tonight. Knox confronted her again about that. The men started out and the women just acted as cheerleaders for the first 5 minutes. Finally in, Ariel kicked non-wrestler Kelly and she took a hilarious bump. It was like a piece of wood falling down. Kelly did nothing and was horrible. Knox refused to make the tag with her and left her alone in the match and made his way to the back. Ariel pinned Kelly at 7:43. They continued their attack on Kelly so Sandman came out to clean up the ring. Sandman killed Thorn with his Singapore Cane while the crowd chanted "ECDub". Sandman celebrated as usual, bloody and drinking beers.

 

- Smackdown's Michael Cole appeared on the screen. He had a plastic smile and said "wow, that Sandman is a true ECW original!" He was booed bad. This scene was clearly done to castrate ECW or what's left of it. Cole promoted Armageddon's triple main event.

 

- The girl robot (Rebecca) interviewed Bobby Lashley who said he doesn't care about his odds : he'll win the main event.

 

- The showed The Big Show backstage making his way to the ring, accompanied by Paul Heyman, Test and Hardcore Holly. The then went to a clip previewing the main event.

 

- Paul Heyman came to the ring with his 2 security guys. He basically said that the ECW of old is dead and wants everyone to celebrate the ECW of 2007 led by the Big Show. They lowered the cage while the announcers talked about the rules. As of right now this is pretty much one of the worst PPVs of all time, I'm sure this will change in the next hour though.

 

6) Lashley beat ECW champion, The Big Show & Test & CM Punk & Hardcore Holly & Rob Van Dam in an Extreme Elimination Chamber at 24:43 to become the new ECW champion.

With Sabu out, on the 6 men in the PPV of an ECW PPV, only 1 (RVD) is actually from ECW. BS entered the pod with the barbwire baseball bat. CM Punk came out and chose the chair. Test then chose a crowbar. Lashley came out and took a table in the pod with him. Hardcore Holly started the match against RVD. They have 5 mn before the first pod opens up. Tazz & Styles played up the fact that Holly, Test & BS must be the reason that Sabu was taken out of the match. RVD did his Spiderman spot on the cage that he did in the last Chamber match for a nice pop. RVD hit a nice Rolling Thunder on Holly over the top rope to the steel platform. At 5:18 CM Punk came out of his pod with his chair for the biggest pop of the night. They have 5 mn until the next wrestler comes out. At 6:50 RVD started to bleed from above the eye. At 9:27 Holly hit a superb Superplex on Punk but no one cared. At 10:33 Test came out and attacked RVD's open cut with his crowbar. At 12:13 RVD hit the 5 Star Frog Splash on Punk and eliminated him at 12:24. Crowd booed bad. Test then scored a 2 count on Holly after a Big Boot but the ref signalled Holly to the back anyway. At 14:00 Test eliminated RVD after an elbowdrop from the top of a pod. This looked like it hurt. Crowd is chanting BS. Next out was supposed to be Lashley but Heyman's security guys attacked the ref to prevent him from opening the pod. Lashley broke the top of the pod with the table and powered out. At 19:40 Lashley pinned Test after a Spear. Lashley then hrew stuff at BS's pod waiting for him to get out. At 21:10 BS finally entered the match with his barbwire bat. BS bled quick and was thrown threw a pod. Heyman continued screaming at BS, terrified about the monster Lashley. At 24:43 Lashley pinned BS after a Spear to become the new ECW champion. Complete backwards booking from the start. A parody of a PPV, a parody of a main event. Show ends at 10:16 ... Awful.
