ECW has really had some quality matches the last few weeks. Tonight's matches were great, and the matches involving Evan Bourne have been good for about the last month.

As much as I hate to say it, I am enjoying ECW far more than Raw lately.

ECW has been pretty darn good on average, from the New Breed vs. Originals era, to Punk, Burke, and Morrison making things their own, to the Era of Swagger.

--It appears that WWE is going to hold Raw at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Monday with an announcement coming momentarily. The new twist is that Smackdown on Tuesday is being moved from the World Arena in Colorado Springs to the Staples Center as well according to the Los Angeles Times. In other words, WWE is doing to the arena in Colorado Springs in pulling out days before a scheduled show, exactly what the Pepsi Center did to them. It will be very interesting seeing how this gets covered.

The WWE's basic response is, **** Denver.

Denver may not see another WWE event for years. Vince can afford to completely blow them off.

I fully expect they won't do another event there for a long time, that's how the WWE does things.

I think the reason they are moving it so far away is any lost income they incur he can recover in a lawsuit, so he's just trying to stick it to Kroenke in every way he can.

Absolutely. I watched the video on ESPN, I thought he came across very well for a wrestling promoter. Of course, he is the GOAT by a long shot. But usually he looks like a deranged, old ****.

Meltzer's such a girl. They wouldn't be pulling out of the Tuesday show if they didn't have to find a new place to have Raw. They can't get their trucks from LA to Colorado overnight.

Mecca · 05-20-2009, 06:09 PM

Someone didn't tell Dave that Raw and Smackdown have to be close so the set can be moved.

BigRock · 05-20-2009, 06:14 PM

Sucks for the fans in CO, though. Shitty situation all around.

Yeah, it's pretty much an unavoidable consequence.

Of course, the one thing that can be blamed on Vince is that he felt the need to make a point by moving the show 1,000 miles away from its original location.

I wonder if they would have moved if it wasn't the Lakers' arena offering them the date. Like if MSG was their only option, does Vince still move just to make a point?

Going to the Staples Center, with the whole Lakers/Nuggets tie-in, is getting the story a whole new round of publicity.

It should be the Nuggets with the mystery partner. And then that partner can be Owen Hart.
