'Bout time. Hopefully it'll do them some good.
ECW can only have Final versus Mark Henry so many months in a row, this was desperately needed.

Also glad to see Burchill stopped wearing Triple H's ring gear from 1999.

I like the Finlay/Mark Henry matches but I don't want too many.
So Burchill in ECW ay...I doubt they'd be future endeavoured.
Just a chance at making people care about them.

Considering he jobbed to that dancing baffoon jobber guy, he's probaly more than ever on the way out. Better than no TV time at all though I suppose.

I am such a big fan of Burchill. The guy has so much in ring talent, he's easily on Shelton/Jericho/Morrison/HBK levels when it comes to in ring work and ability. However he's not exactly a good talker. If ECW can make him into a good promo guy and he can find a bit of charisma, he could be a huge star, could easily be a World or at least ECW champion. If he can't, the best he could get is getting lucky with the bookers and becoming another Shelton Benjamin, with sporadic midcard pushes. Failing that he'll just be a lowercarder or get fired.

Did anybody find it interesting when Striker mentioned that Burchill was related to a pirate?

Maybe now they're finally pull the trigger, and actually do the incest angle.

Better than no TV time at all though I suppose. actually, he didn't job at all from what i saw. he more or less dominated the match, then the dancing bloke got a rollup. after the match birchill still wanted to fight, and the announcers were playing it up like this was far from over, so i'm thinking this might develop into something more. oh, and also: "COME ON, BOY!"

I just want to see The Pirate return and team up with Boogeyman and Hornswaggle to dominate ECW.

I guess RAW finally sent something over to complete the Mike Knox trade

They'd been allied with him, and it looked like Katie Lea was trying to seduce him (which I thought came off really well and could've meant big things for her), but suddenly Regal was suspended and they quickly tossed and jobbed Paul out in a very short IC title feud with Kofi Kingston.

Huh. ECW doesn't have any women's division; Alicia Fox doesn't really count. I suspect that Katie Lea will pretty much wrestle on Smackdown as a result, which will be a damn good thing. They need more women who can work.

i agree with the last two posts, if regal didnt mess up and get suspended that would have been a nice faction- , but its good news for katie she will get to travel with matt now and probably be seen more on smackdown even if it means she will be losing but its still TV time paul imo is just going to be used as either bait for khali or to put the newer guys over- he still reminds me of HHH though

Give them a White Stripes gimmick. They've said they're brother and sister since day one but then it's revealed that they're actually married and not brother and sister at all.
