- Sheamus def. Shelton Benjamin:
One day after making his Raw debut, Sheamus returned to the Land of the Extreme to face his ECW rival, Shelton Benjamin. These two Superstars have been fighting for weeks, with Sheamus calling Benjamin mediocre and The Gold Standard referring to The Celtic Warrior as a coward. Benjamin wanted to give Sheamus a going away “present” Tuesday night, but instead, after a brutal, intense fast-paced match, the Irish Superstar left ECW for Raw with a victory.
- “The Abraham Washington Show” with Tiffany:
“The Abraham Washington Show” featured a very special guest with an important message Tuesday night. ECW General Manager Tiffany joined the critically-acclaimed talk show to reinforce to WWE Universe that the New Superstar Initiative is in full effect and ECW is – and will continue to be – the place the see the brightest and most exciting young Superstars in WWE. The Diva also pointed out that many of the Superstars in Sunday’s WWE Bragging Rights, such as CM Punk, Jack Swagger and Kofi Kingston, got their first big break in the Land of the Extreme.
But William Regal hasn’t agreed with Tiffany’s managerial skills lately. The British Brawler and his associates, Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson, interrupted “The Abraham Washington Show” this week, which further aggravated the General Manager.
“I implore you, give me what I deserve,” Regal demanded. “Please, give me an ECW Championship Match.”
But Tiffany stood her ground: “Mr. Regal, you have asked me repeatedly and my answer has not changed. No! … You are not getting an ECW Championship Match tonight. Perhaps you will never get another shot at the ECW Championship!”
- ECW Champion Christian def. Yoshi Tatsu:
Christian put his ECW Title on the line Tuesday night against one of the newest, brightest Superstars to recently join the Land of the Extreme – Yoshi Tatsu. In the biggest match of his young career, the Japanese Superstar put up a competitive fight against Captain Charisma, who has said Tatsu is the most-deserving Superstar to fight for the Extreme gold. But Tatsu’s strong, high-energy effort wasn’t enough to win the ECW Championship in his first title match against his experienced mentor. After a perfectly-timed Killswitch, Christian pinned Tatsu to retain the ECW Championship.
In a sportsmanlike act, Christian kneeled to help Tatsu up from the ring after their match, but they were quickly interrupted by an attack from William Regal’s associates, Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson. As Tatsu rose to help Christian, The Moscow Mauler brutally kicked the Japanese Superstar out of the ring, while Jackson continued his assault. Regal then entered the ring, snatching the ECW Championship from Christian, holding it high above his head as the Peeps in the Blue Cross Arena jeered at he and his Ruthless Roundtable.
The British Brawler has sent a strong message to Christian, ECW General Manager Tiffany and the entire WWE Universe: He’s determined to win the ECW Championship, and he – and Kozlov and Jackson – won’t let anyone get in his way. Will Regal feel any repercussions for his bold actions this week? How will Tiffany react?




The Abraham Washington show is terrible. I thinnk the crowd agreed, judging by the massive boos everytime he shows up.
Tony Atlas sounds like he needs to seriously lay off the sauce.
Tiffany is a beautiful recreation thanks to plastic surgery. She really needs to be an interviewer and strictly an interviewer. She’s terrible at being GM.
Byron Sexton did a decent job. But we’ll see, as far as the long term is concerned.
It’s just my opinoin but ECW might be a much much better show if it were mostly tag teams. It would be a way to bring back the solid and true tag teams and also would allow for more talent to be showcased than doing singles matches, since ECW is now the stepping stone show for wannabe subpar stars.
Byron in his first sentence did a better job than Striker ever has, since it didn’t sound like he was reading off a pre-written script. I was really hoping they got rid of that guy when I watched the show, but then I found out they were just moving him to smackdown. How bad is that going be? Ugh.
I also thought that Byron was excellent, altought I have to say that Matt Striker for me is also top notch.
