Anyone see the main event last night? Can anyone explain the logic to me? Why would anyone be interested in the match this Sunday at the Rumble between Lashley and Test now that we have already seen the match and know that Lashley can beat Test cleanly? I fail to see how that match helped hype the match this Sunday in any way shape or form. In fact, I think it actually took hype away from the match (not that there was much hype to begin with).
Wouldnt it make more sense to have Test win even if he won dirty?
Anything would make more sense to me than the finish the decided to go with.

Get over it. ECW has been crappy since episode 1. Actually, episode 1 had a battle royal, so that makes it better than most television.  But episode 2....yeah, I can agree with that. |

CM Punk/Burke had a great match.
Kevin Thorn got some credibility for hanging in against RVD.
Test/Lashley is NOT the main focus of the Royal Rumble. The whole thing is seemingly being set up so that Hardcore Holly interferes and costs Test the match.
If Hardcore Holly feuds for the title, then Holly's main feud (at current moment) CM Punk becomes involved. Hinting that Punk could be ECW champ is enough to get some people to watch.
It could be poor booking, but it could also be good booking in disguise.

Anytime it involves Punk winning a title, it's good booking IMO.

Following week, Lashley fights Holly and Test interferes and Punk makes the save. Following week, Lashley and Punk fight Test and Holly w/ Test pinning Lashley w/ a tiny bit of interference from Holly. (gasp!)Will Lashley be able to beat Test at RR!!! Better order the PPV to find out! |
