Match Three (Main Event): Marcus Cor Von (w/ Elijah Burke) def. Rob Van Dam (w/ Sabu) Rob Van Dam came out to one of the loudest pops of the night. When it went to a commercial break he got on the microphone and said that since it was a commercial he could say how he really feels. He cut a very passionate promo (One of the best I've seen from him) saying the new ECW sucks and that the old ECW rules. He went on saying that this wasn't the real ECW. He said how he wishes it were still the '90's and the real ECW was still in business. Sabu kept shaking his head yes. The fans chanted "RVD!", "ECW!", and "Sabu!"

Taken from the "detailed" ECW/Smackdown report.
RVD doesn't like new ECW, so what better to do then to complain to the crowd?
How...mature.

This isn't just for you, but for anyone really. What is the definition of "smark bait." Just wondering. I see it thrown around a lot.

Is anyone else sick of someone saying this everytime something is reported? Look, I understand that you can't take everything you read on the internet seriously, but if you are going to dismiss everything you read as "newz" or "smark bait" (a horrible term, by the way), then why bother reading anything? It is from a detailed fan report, meaning someone in the crowd.. someone who was ACTUALLY THERE. Jesus.

Im sure Terry Funk wishes it was 1987. Im sure Bruno Samartino wishes it was 1965. Im sure Hogan wishes it was 1989.
Thats what past their prime wrestlers wish. That they were back in their prime. How about he stops living in the past, and deal with what he has. He screwed up his deal with ECW. No one else, and now hes gonna cry about it. RVD, Sabu, and any other "ECW Original" who has done absolutely nothing but destroy opportunities can fall off the face of the earth if you ask me.

If this REALLY did happen......then what does that say about the RVD negotiations with WWE? Did he do this to gauge the crowds that ECW back to being...well, ECW...is better than the crap we've seen for the last few months?
If the report is true...the crowds agreed.
If Sandman or Sabu or even Dreamer said this, they would be on the street right now. But RVD, he has the clout of the "Originals" to do this....if the report is true.

I am kind of hoping that the person who reported this misheard RVD. I could see RVD doing a promo about Originals/New Breed and it being confused with OldECW/New ECW since that is a premise for the feud.

mysterydriver, exactly.
I always accept news on a conditional basis. I tried to put some logic in it, but most of the time...you can't tell.
If Meltzer reported today that it did happen, then I would believe it. Maybe.

No, I know but the only reason it was posted to do the typical new ECW is horrible, Old ECW awesome. I agree but why even bother to compare them it's like apples and oranges. See thats the thing the older hardcore fans post how great the old ECW was and how this new one is an abomination. And talk how Vince is a douchebag and have pissed on the legacy of ECW. Yeah but why even bother anymore I mean how many post like this do you get every week? It's just I don't know I'm tired of it. Seriously just fire all the former ECW stars so we don't have to hear about how the Orginals should be the stars and all this other crap. The old ECW is dead and died 6 years ago, they should not have used the nam yeah but face facts the ECW you knew is no more and in it's place is a glorified developmental territory. So thats why I said Smark Bait.

I doubt it happened either, but if it did...
I bet he likes his paycheck better today than he did in the 90's.
No one's putting a gun to anyone's head making anyone work in (or watch, for that matter) a wrestling show they don't like.

I'm sure alot of the ECW guys are happy. Dreamer, Sandman, Sabu and RVD are making fist fulls more money than ever before, and doing maybe a quarter of the work. They don't have to do flaming table spots every night, they don't have to change in dirty bathrooms, and they don't have to live in thier cars and what not. They should be happy, but I can understand on the other hand how a true love for wrestling, you would put up with all that other stuff to have great matches with great people every night in front of fans who were loyal and rabid in love with them.

Look, I understand that you can't take everything you read on the internet seriously, but if you are going to dismiss everything you read as "newz" or "smark bait" (a horrible term, by the way), then why bother reading anything? There are some articles that MIGHT have some validity ... and there's stuff like this, which just screams out that it's a creation designed to get our feathers ruffled. So, because it was on the internet, it must be real. Okay, then, here ... Fan report: Kevin Thorne (w/Ariel) vs. CM Punk (w/Kelly Kelly): During commercial break, Kelly Kelly asked if the crowd (who wuz DEAD!) wanted to see sumthing to eksite them. So Kelly Kelly (HAWT!) took off her top! And then Ariel (BIG BOOBS!) did! And then they kissed, fer liek, 2 minutes! I betcha, if they didn't come bakc from commercial, they'd gone all the way!!! And because you read it here on the internet, IT MUST BE TRUE. Come on, man. Some halfwit can't write a fake "report" and send it to a news-site as a practical joke? Jed Shaffer ~Oh, wait, was this from Meltzer's fact-finding ninjas?
