    The Raw/ECW agreement allows Benjamin and Charlie Haas to reunite again or a match against each other. I'd like to see a Benjamin-Haas vs. London-Kendrick match.

    This move also puts CM Punk into a MITB cash out situation. Since ONS is a pseudo-ECW PPV, how about this scenario ... Orton tops Triple H and Punk cashes in immediately and wins the title. Triple H can then take Punk down for a cheap title reclamation on Raw the next night.

    Well, Hacksaw and Super Crazy seem to be at the same weight these days...

    Crazy must have really let himself go.

    Crazy knew he would never be used as much in the WWE.

    Wouldn't the logical choice for Super Crazy be to lay off the third plate of nachos for a month or two in order to go to TNA, where his skills would be more appreciated? At his best, a match between Crazy and someone like Petey Williams or Kaz would be worth watching.

    Kofi Kingston probably benefits most from the ECW/Raw move. They've been pushing him anyway, and his matches with Shelton Benjamin have been solid. I can see him quickly getting into the thick of the IC chase. It probably wouldn't hurt Charlie Haas if (and a huge one at that) they ever realized what kind of talent they have.

    Well that was anticlimatic.

    So, Vince is going to give away a million dollars a week? That ought to go over real well with the boys (and gals).

    Somehow, I have a feeling he won't be breaking out his wallet.
     
  7. I think what he meant was he was going to give away the sum of $1 million, meaning a $1,000 or $10,000 weekly prize is coming from a pot of $1 million. No way they are are giving out $1 million a week. Makes no sense.

    None of it makes sense. Good hard sell on a second PPV in 3 weeks.

    I was hoping the announcement was to name a new GM for the show. But no, we got that lame-ass announcement that is supposed to "change television" as we know it.

    Complete and utter bullshit.

    Was glad to see DiBiase last night, although that segment was a waste. His kid ain't that great on the mic, but he looks like he can be good in the ring. Only time will tell.

    And one more thing about that: He's choosing the fucking tag team titles to go after? Wow.

    Shit, he sounded better than the Hardys, RVD, Benjamin and Lashley combined.

    I wonder if this is how they're going to give away copies of DiBiase's new book (in place of giving away $1 million).

    Perhaps Floyd Mayweather can be the distributor of the $1 million after the way he got fans excited at that WM 24 press conference in L.A.
