In a chart-topping swerve/angle, Tommy Dreamer "sells out" to Vince McMahon and becomes his ECW Enforcer/Toadie. He will then change his name to Tommy Realist.

I can't wait till Shannon Moore joins the new breed group, vince says he looks stupid then he is really a reject from both groups.
But he will probably just never be on TV again. And on topic, his bit with Dreamer was the worst. I loved him with sabu though " You stay away from me."

Aren't you supposed to hate his lame insults? If the insults had any bite then I would. But instead it came off as juvinile and dumb, at least it did to me. I just fail to see how anyone would be offended by that.

They had Sandman for awhile, and he was in the final match for their "Hard 10" tournament from around 2002.

And then sandman would have said "huh" lol

It's stupid that Vince wouldn't know who these guys were cause he basically hired them, both real and kayfabe, since he is the one who made a big deal of bringing back ECW. The fact that he seems ignorant of the guys he's paying for is sheer idiocy.

It's not just some guy insulting them. It is their BOSS insulting them, so no matter how lame the insults are, they would be pissed that the guy signing their checks hates them all.
Also, the ridiculousness of the insults makes Vince's character look like an idiot, which is what they're going for I assume. Putting down everything old-ECW is continuing with the "I know what my fans want!" story that has been going on recently on Raw.
Vince's character right now is pretty much a ramped up version of what all the dirt sheets say he's like in real life. Completely stubborn thinking he knows what is best for fans of wrestling, and terribly out of touch with reality.
Oh, and I don't get where people got the impression Vince didn't know who they were. He said all their names, just in a dickish "You're totally insignificant to me" sort of way.

Real ECW fans would have chanted "We Want Heyman" during Vince's promo. I wonder if he would've acknowledged it?

You mean WWE actually figured out that "Northern Ireland" and "Ireland" are two entirely different things?
Wow!!! I'm amazed after hearing Finlay is from "Belfast, Ireland" for so long.

Is this where CM Punk sides with Vince? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, i would mark for that just for the backlash on here and such Actually, I'd mark for it. Imagine Punk shaking hands with Vince and then getting on the mic and bashing the "old" ECW for being filled with beer, drugs, and sex. Saying he'd never be associated with any of that because he's straightedge and he's better than all of them. Punk on the mic = Gold. He'd be massively over as a heel instantly and could lead to many nice feuds. Punk vs Sandman would be a short one with Punk beating Sandman since the WWE doesn't care about him. Punk could then move on to RVD. Punk vs RVD at Mania would kick ass! RVD of course puts Punk over since he's leaving and sets up Punk for a world title shot at Lashley at ECW ONS 3. There you go WWE, feel free to use this idea. I won't ask for anything in return, except for maybe a spot on the creative team.

That idea is so awesome.......that if you were to put it forth at an UnCreative team meeting, the monkeys of UnCreative would ignore the hell out of it, as if you'd just spoken Arabic. Seriously, they wuoldn't know a cool idea like that one if it hit them in a semi truck doing 80. Twice.

Wow, why is everyone falling for kayfabe storylines? I am now convinced Vince Mcmahon is the best character in wrestling ever. He has gotten everyone to believe he is off his rocker.

He dissed SABU then made a quick getaway. THe only guy he seemed to fear was SABU He thought Sabu was a terrorist.

He thought Sabu was a terrorist. He is. The "Homicidal, suicidal, genocidal" thing is just a front. He's really just a very scarred up teddy bear.
