| Just watched ECW on a certain video hosting site and it looks like Christians Wrestlemania match is set to be against the winner of Swagger and Finlay at No Way Out.
I said a few weeks back that I prefer to watch ECW over Raw and Smackdown and it is getting better. Noble has come in to do the comedy character which it was lacking, TJ Wilson debuted with a short but good match, Evan Bourne promos have started so he should be back soon and Christian has replaced Matt Hardy.
The only problem now is that the roster seems to be getting bigger by the week but theres only room for 3 matches a week.

| Quote: lister "I'm shocked that they've put Christian on ECW too but it's a punishment for choosing to leave in 2005 and they've also got to keep ECW going somehow.
They got Swagger to say that Christian "couldn't cut it in the company, which is why he left years ago" they also got the commentators to say "instantly classic" (Christian's TNA nickname was The Instant Classic) and "making an impact"
Going to a company to face wrestlers like Angle, Sting, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Booker T, Abyss, Rhino etc. is not cutting it? stop being stupid Vince. Christian should be on either Smackdown or RAW right now, what's the point of traveling 300+ days to be on ECW.
TJ Wilson also had his debut he is called Tyson Kidd managed by Natalya.
TNA has released Jimmy Rave, Petey Williams and Lance Hoyt apparently to freshen up the lower card by releasing talent that have been around for a while and bringing in new talent instead. All three could be back at some point in the future.
49% - Cena's Career With A Championship
49% of John Cena’s career has been spent holding a WWE championship. Since Cena debuted 2,428 days ago, he has held the WWE Title, the World Title, the US Title and World Tag Titles for a total of 1,179 days.
Imagine if he hadn't got those 2 injuries the percentage would be even higher.'"
I don't think it's a punishment any more than when Benoit was to be moved to ECW (just before the unfortunate business). People know Christian is returning to WWE so there's likely to be a swell in the viewing figures for whatever show he turns up on. So why not put him on your lowest viewed show? It lends it some credibility by using his name and gives the ratings a bump up

Could be. Why do you dislike MMA/UFC ?

| I've never been big into the WWECW, but I have been watching it a bit lately; no pointless promos, no "Longest Episodic television show" snoozefests and generally decent matches - better than watching Khali take a Pedigree, that's for sure.
With TJ Wilson, Noble, Christian, Finlay, Miz n Morrison, I think I could be persuading to tune in more regularly now.

Just never understood it e.g. the entertainment value. My brother has a go (in a joking manner) about me being a wrestling fan, saying I should get into shoot fighting. My arguement is that wrestling is 'fake' as part of a design to be entertaining, but for me, watching two guys legitimately beat the s**t out of each other just makes me feel uncomfortable to be honest, same as it does when it kicks off in a pub/club.
Fair play to anyone who follows it, just can't say I'll ever be one of the crossover fans really.

Same here. Any idiot can kick, gough, punch and headbutt someone to the ground.
So much so that it happens throughout the country nearly every night, outside taxi ranks, kebab shops and nightclubs. There is not art in that, in my opinion. It takes a real skill and dedication to put on a good wrestling match, in which you build up excitement and crowd intensity, through the use of athleticism and mannerisms to convey (if feigned) injury and emotion.

Most sensible, thought-out post I've read on RLFans for a long time.
I actually suggested to my mate when walking past a notoriously (sp) rough pub in Hull that they should install a mini Octagon in there for competitions!

Not in MMA you can't.

You need to try watching some MMA if you don't think it requires skill or dedication.
