Episode #1 // June 13, 2006 // Sovereign Bank Arena // Trenton, New Jersey
Welcome to ECW on Sci Fi!
After footage from Sunday's wild One Night Stand event, cameras pan inside of the Sovereign Bank Arena from Trenton, New Jersey for the first edition of the new ECW! "Welcome everyone, ECW is back and on the Sci Fi network!" Is heard from commentary. "I am Joey Styles along with two-time ECW Champion Tazz!" The two discuss how this past Sunday at One Night Stand was an incredible show capped off by Rob Van Dam becoming the new WWE Champion! They then turn their focus toward the entrance as Paul Heyman makes his way out to the delight of the crowd carrying a black bag. The representative and man responsible for everything ECW enters the ring and after thanking the audience he wastes no time in introducing the brand new WWE Champion himself: Rob Van Dam! 'The Whole F'n Show' emerges with the gold over his shoulder and a smile across his face, heading down to the ring and embracing Heyman joyfully. "Two nights ago, everybody saw it... I defeated John Cena at One Night Stand and became the brand new WWE Champion!" He then brings up how last night on Raw, Cena told the world he was going to be coming to the premiere of the new ECW tonight and RVD hopes he does because John found out what happens when you walk in to enemy territory on Sunday and he'll find out again tonight if he actually shows up. Heyman steps forward and tells Van Dam that he also hopes Cena comes but in the mean time, he has something for Rob. He begins to open up the bag and says that this has been a long time coming. "And when you won that match at One Night Stand you proved that you deserve to be called not just the WWE Champion but the ECW World Heavyweight Champion!" He pulls the belt out of the bag and drops to a knee, presenting it over to RVD. The crowd begins to chant his name and he thanks Paul, hugging him once again and expressing how this is the greatest honor of his career, truthfully. He doesn't get to say much more, however, as John Cena's music hits.
The former WWE Champion arrives to the disapproval of the New Jersey fans, coming to the ring with RVD and Heyman inviting him to come in. Cena looks around the building before stepping through the ropes, a microphone in his hand as he congratulates Van Dam on his victory at One Night Stand. "I know, I know. You probably don't take that sincerely but I do congratulate you. However, you know I will get my rematch and when I do there won't be Edge able to get involved or Paul Heyman here to make the three count." RVD says that's cool, but Cena seems to forget that RVD isn't just 'Mr. Tuesday Night', but 'Mr. Sunday Night', 'Mr. Monday Night', 'Mr. Any Night' and most importantly 'Mr. WWE Champion'. Cena smiles, telling Van Dam that maybe he should pay a visit to Raw next Monday considering he is 'Mr. Any Night' and since he did the honor of showing up to ECW. RVD looks to Heyman and laughs. "I'll see you then, John!" He says while mocking the 'You Can't See Me' wave in front of his face. Cena takes a step forward and gets close to the two, looking back and forth between them. As they are staring, the crowd begins to buzz as standing in the ring behind Cena is Rhyno! "Oh My God!" Shouts Styles from ringside as Cena turns right in to the Gore! Cheers come from around the building as RVD proceeds to hand the ECW and WWE Championship over to Heyman, leaping on to the top rope and planting a Five Star Frog Splash on Cena! The champion holds his stomach as he gets back on to his feet, Heyman handing back both championship belts. RVD takes one in each hand and has Heyman and Rhyno raise both his arms as Cena is on the outside in pain.
Tonight's Main Event Is Set
Seen backstage after the break is the trio of Paul Heyman, Rob Van Dam and Rhyno, all three looking very happy as to how the show began tonight, Heyman saying it is going to keep getting better. "Because Rob, I know you have John Cena and even Edge breathing down your neck for that WWE Championship. But you're the ECW World Heavyweight Champion now, too! So I'm going to find you a number one contender in the main event of tonight's show when I pit the original ECW versus the new ECW." Rhyno pounds his fist in to his hand, looking excited. Heyman seems to disappoint him though when he says that it will be Tommy Dreamer taking on Kurt Angle. Van Dam says he's looking forward to it. He then pats Rhyno on the back and welcomes him home.
(1) Sabu defeats Roadkill (w/Danny Doring); Meets The Big Show
The big man, Roadkill, looks to use his size to his advantage but gets cut down by Sabu's extreme tactics with the use of a steel chair. Doring tries to get involved but has a chair tossed right in to his face, 'The Homicidal, Genocidal, Suicidal, Death Defying' Sabu with a DDT to Roadkill followed by an Arabian Facebuster with yet another chair to get the pinfall. "Now that's extreme, right there!" Says Tazz. As Sabu is celebrating the victory, however, The Big Show's music hits and after defecting from Raw to ECW last week, the seven footer marches his way down to the ring and has a stare down with Sabu. Show doesn't attack him, however, but rather goes for Roadkill and plants him with a Chokeslam. The staring continues, Sabu then pointing up to the sky and the lights in the arena go out as a commercial break is transitioned to.
Tommy Dreamer Looks To Redeem Himself
Standing backstage is Tommy Dreamer and Beulah McGillicutty, the prior running his hands across his face as he says that tonight could be his night and the first step as part of the new ECW to finally get a chance to redeem himself after being ECW Champion for less than a half hour six years ago. "Beulah, it's great to have ECW back... it's great to be have you back here with me... the only thing left to get back is the ECW World Heavyweight Championship." He tells Beulah to stay in the back, he's got to do this himself.
(2) The F.B.I. (w/Big Guido and Trinity) defeat Super Crazy and Psicosis
Looking for some retribution for his loss alongside Tajiri on Sunday, Crazy re-unites with Psciosis as part of ECW. The duo show their luchador backgrounds to control most of the match against Little Guido and Tony Mamaluke but after a big boot from Big Guido to Psicosis on the outside provides a distraction with Crazy on the top rope, Little Guido and Mamaluke hit a double fisherman buster to score the pinfall on Crazy and continue their good week. Trinity dances in front of the other members of The F.B.I. after the match on the way to the back as Crazy is left tending to Psicosis on the outside.
'The Impact Player' Will Not Be An Afterthought
"So Tommy Dreamer gets a number one contenders match?" Asks Justin Credible out of the break while standing backstage. "Maybe people have forgotten who it was that took away his dream of being the ECW World Heavyweight Champion six years ago!" He points to himself, saying he will be not be a footnote in the history of ECW and will not be an afterthought, he is going to show why he is 'The Impact Player' tonight.
The Blue World Order Is Taking Over... Again?
The cameras come to ringside where Joey Styles and Tazz discuss the show thus far but end up stopping themselves as hopping the barricade is Stevie Richards, Hollywood Nova and The Blue Meanie! "The Blue World Order? Oh, not again!" Says Styles. The three enter the ring together, Richards with a microphone in hand as he says that it's been about a year since The Blue World Order took over. "We've got Hollywood Nova to my left, Da Blue Guy himself to my right and I, of course, am Big Stevie Cool! And tonight, we're back together and the new ECW? We're taking over!" The trio begin to march around the ring together, the theme music of The Sandman hitting after a few moments, the crowd turning to their attention toward Sandman arriving through them. Beer and kendo stick at the ready, he drinks the can and busts himself open before coming in to the ring, looking at The Blue World Order before taking three more beers from his pockets and presenting them to Richards, Nova and Meanie. "Well isn't that nice of The Sandman!" Tazz says with a laugh. As soon as the three begin to drink up, however, Sandman begins to swing his kendo stick wildly in to all of them! He ends up clearing the ring of Richards and Nova before getting hit across the back by Meanie. Sandman then turns and clocks him right in the head, which sends him crashing to the outside! With the take over attempt of the bWo thwarted, Sandman proceeds to enjoy himself by continuing to drink on the top rope.
A Straight Edge Superstar Is Coming Soon To ECW
The cameras pan on a man's tattoos, the voice of him saying not to let them fool you. "I'm straight edge." The face of one CM Punk is then revealed. "I'm a man of great discipline, I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs... my addiction is wrestling. My obsession is competition. Discipline. My name... is CM Punk."
(3) Justin Credible defeats Balls Mahoney
As Credible said earlier, he was not going to be an afterthought. The match doesn't go much beyond the bell, however, as Mahoney is preparing to swing a chair right out of the gates he is hit with a low blow kick from behind by Francine! Credible then lifting Mahoney off the mat and hitting That's Incredible for the quick win. While the crowd boos the result, Francine hands Credible a microphone. "Now that's not just the coolest, that's not just the best... that's Justin Credible!" Francine says the last line along with him and the two pose together over the body of Mahoney as it appears Credible could be a force to be reckoned with going forward and not the afterthought he spoke of earlier.
(4) Number One Contenders Match: Kurt Angle defeats Tommy Dreamer
With the first opportunity at Rob Van Dam and the ECW World Heavyweight Championship on the line, a determined, if not desperate, Dreamer does whatever he can to try and out fight Angle knowing it'd be very, very difficult to out wrestle him. Using trash cans, street signs, chairs and kendo sticks, Dreamer ends up getting caught with a belly-to-belly suplex and Angle ends up taking over from there. Dreamer tries for one big chair shot but Kurt ducks away from it and delivers the Angle Slam! He hooks both legs and gets the pinfall. "Welcome to ECW, Kurt Angle!" Says an impressed Styles. Angle has his arm raised as the winner but doesn't appear to be done as he goes up behind Dreamer and applies the Ankle Lock! Dreamer yells out in pain to the hold as Angle demands he tap out to no avail. Thus, Angle drops to the mat and wraps both his legs around the ankle and Dreamer is in tremendous pain! "Alright, Kurt! You've proven your point!" Tazz yells out. The boos of the crowd turns to cheers as Rob Van Dam races down to the ring, Angle getting back up to a flurry of strikes from the WWE and ECW Champion! RVD picks up a chair from the mat and tosses it in Angle's face before nailing the Van Daminator! Angle falls backwards and to the outside, Van Dam staring down at him before going back to check on Dreamer. As he is tending to his fellow ECW Original, Angle returns to the ring and delivers the Angle Slam to RVD! He gets back up and paces back and forth before picking up the ECW World Heavyweight Championship belt, lifting his head to stare in to the camera. Letting out a yell, he holds the championship up. With that, the first episode of ECW on Sci Fi concludes with Kurt Angle standing tall.

Episode #2 // June 20, 2006 // Pepsi Arena // Albany, New York
Paul Heyman Addresses Vengeance and Tonight's Main Event
Following the opening ECW video, the cameras come in to the Pepsi Arena backstage where Paul Heyman stands, welcoming everyone to the second week of ECW on Sci Fi. "This Sunday night is WWE Vengeance. At that show we will see the ECW World Heavyweight Champion Rob Van Dam defend his WWE Championship in a triple threat match between himself, John Cena and Edge." He shows a clip from last night on Raw where the match for this Sunday was made, to which he follows up by saying that is this Sunday and tonight is Tuesday and that means it's ECW. "So if John Cena wants to show up like he did last week - or anybody else for that matter - I've got a crew of ECW wrestlers waiting to tell you to get the hell out!" Heyman says that in the mean time, he has arranged tonight's main event for his ECW World Heavyweight Champion Rob Van Dam to prepare for Vengeance by competing in a non-title match against The Big Show.
(1) Rhyno defeats CW Anderson; Sends a Message to the ECW Locker Room
After making his surprise debut last week, Rhyno takes on the hard striker in Anderson and after a slow start to the match, Rhyno ends up getting out of an Anderson spinebuster and hits a powerful one of his own before kneeling in the corner and, amidst the chants of 'Gore!' from the crowd, he rips through Anderson with one and gets the pinfall. Post-match, he demands a microphone from ringside. "I didn't come back to the WWE to be a member of Raw or Smackdown, I came back to the WWE because they brought back what I have always called home: ECW!" He says that last week when he Gored John Cena he felt like he Gored everybody that ever spit in the face of ECW. "But make no mistake... just because I love ECW doesn't mean that I love everybody in that locker room... If you get in my way there will be a one word to describe the consequences: Gore! Gore! Gore!" He throws the mike back down and raises his fists above his head.
CM Punk Is Coming Soon
"You may be asking yourself: What qualifies CM Punk to be a part of ECW?" Asks CM Punk himself. He explains that he has trained all around the world in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai kickboxing, Kenpo karate and most importantly: Wrestling. He also states how he is very disciplined and that everyone will find out exactly how disciplined he is with the very best there is to offer on ECW and everyone will find out very soon.
Tommy Dreamer Is Confronted by an Old Rival
After being defeated at the hands of Kurt Angle last week, the heart and soul of ECW Tommy Dreamer makes his way down to the ring with a microphone in his hand, saying that last week was a tough loss for him. "But hell, I've made a career out of getting my ass kicked, getting back up and facing whatever comes my way next!" He says that he hopes that one day he'll be able to get another shot at Kurt Angle and one day he'll be able to get another shot at becoming ECW World Heavyweight Champion. Just as he finishes that sentence, the theme music of Justin Credible hits and 'The Impact Player' makes his way out along with Francine. The duo come down to the ring together, Credible telling Dreamer that seeing him be given a number one contender's match last week made him sick. "But it made me very happy to watch you lose! To watch you almost get your ankle snapped, Tommy!" Credible grins and says that it reminded him of six years ago when he crushed Dreamer's hopes and dreams and took the ECW World Heavyweight Championship from him within the snap of a finger. "Oh, Tommy. That night wasn't just the coolest, that night wasn't just the best... that night was Justin Credible!" Dreamer has heard enough and throws a punch, putting boots to Credible but being hit from behind by Francine with a low blow! The crowd boos as Dreamer then falls to That's Incredible! Justin and Francine then stand together in the middle of the ring, posing over the body of Dreamer to the disapproving audience.
Kelly Kelly Promises to Show Everything Next Week
A young, blonde woman introducing herself as Kelly Kelly is seen backstage and she speaks to the camera, saying that she is an exhibitionist, meaning that she likes to show off everything. She does some seductive poses for the camera and says that she will be very happy to show everyone everything next week.
(2) The Sandman defeats Stevie Richards
Prior to the match, Richards gets on the microphone and tells the crowd that last week he tried to bring back The Blue World Order and they were rudely interrupted and assaulted by The Sandman. "So tonight, Sandman, I face you as Stevie Richards and not Big Stevie Cool and I'll show you... you'll see!" Sandman enters the ring with a Singapore cane in hand, going for an attack with it right off the bat only to have Richards avoid it and start off controlling the match. After Richards misses on a superkick, however, he is met with strike after strike with the cane! After one big shot to the head, he pulls Richards up by the throat with the cane and hits the White Russian Legsweep and presses the cane down in to the chest for the cover, resulting in the three count. The Albany fans cheer for Sandman as he celebrates the victory by drinking beers.
A New Tag Team Is Waiting in the Wings
Seen standing backstage is Kid Kash and Jamie Noble, wearing dog collars as they tell everyone how they are The Pitbulls and recently on Smackdown they have established themselves as a team not to be messed with. "I got my start here on ECW," Kash states. "And now, with Jamie, I will continue my career on ECW as the premiere tag team of this brand." Noble says they'll be arriving soon and bites toward the camera.
(3) Super Crazy and Psicosis defeat The F.B.I. (w/Big Guido and Trinity)
In a rematch from last week, The F.B.I. are up to the same tricks as last week as Big Guido and Trinity get involved countless times. Crazy ends up going for a springboard moonsault to the outside on to Big Guido but is caught, Psicosis coming up from behind with a chair and cracking it across the back of the big man! Crazy and Psicosis then return to the ring and after a run of dominance over Little Guido and Mamaluke, the latter is tossed to the outside in to Big Guido with Little Guido left to fall to a sit-out facebuster from Psicosis and a moonsault from Crazy that leads to the one, two, three. The two are ecstatic upon winning the match, having evened things up with The F.B.I. The Italian foursome back down from the ring but assure this isn't over.
John Cena and Edge Are Nowhere to Be Found
Seen walking to the parking lot area is Paul Heyman, approaching a group of wrestlers consisting of Al Snow, Balls Mahoney, Danny Doring and Roadkill. "No sign of Cena? No sign of Edge?" He asks, the four telling him they haven't seen anything. "Good, good. But stay on high alert... our ECW World Heavyweight Champion has a huge match coming up next and I don't want Cena or Edge sticking their noses in our business. I'll need the four of you again, and perhaps even more, this Sunday at Vengeance to have RVD's back in case Monday Night Raw tries to pull a fast one and take back their precious WWE Championship."
(4) Non-Title Match: WWE and ECW World Heavyweight Champion Rob Van Dam vs The Big Show Goes to a No Contest; Kurt Angle and Sabu Help Create Total Chaos
Facing a literal monstrous challenge, the WWE and ECW Champion tries to use his speed and high flying tactics to combat against Show's size, getting caught many times in mid-air and thrown around powerfully. Show ends up bringing steel steps in to the ring and goes to drop them over a down RVD but he is tripped face first in to them! Van Dam sees the opportunity to go for the Five Star Frog Splash but Kurt Angle ends up running down to the ring and pushing him to the mat! The crowd boos as Angle enters the ring and tosses Van Dam in to the steel steps head first. Show gets back to his feet and catches Angle by the throat, pushing him in to the ropes and to the outside. He then turns his attention back to Van Dam, grabbing him by the throat as he gets up. The lights go out in the arena, however, with them coming back up to reveal Sabu standing in the corner! He points to the sky with one hand, a steel chair held in the other. Show pushes Van Dam down to the mat and Sabu tosses a chair right in to the face of the big man! He picks the chair right up and gives it over to RVD, whom throws it up to Show for the Van Daminator only to be caught as he goes to jump by Angle and hit with a belly-to-belly suplex! Sabu charges at Kurt but he is hit with a stiff headbutt, causing Sabu to turn right in to a Chokeslam on to the chair by Show. Angle and Show then get in to each other's faces, exchanging words with RVD suddenly leaping from the top rope with a chair and dropkicking it in to Show's back, which causes Show to fall on top of Angle. The two roll apart from each other, RVD and Sabu each with a chair in their hand now as they wait for Show and Angle to get back up, RVD with a Van Daminator on Angle and Sabu with an aided dropkick to the face of Show, knocking both men to the outside and leaving RVD and Sabu to stand together in the middle of the ring. "The ECW Originals in Rob Van Dam and Sabu just showed the newcomers Kurt Angle and Big Show exactly who and what they're dealing with!" Says Styles. As Van Dam's music plays, he and Sabu play up to the crowd as the second episode of ECW on Sci Fi concludes.

WWE Vengeance // June 25, 2006 // Charlotte Bobcats Arena // Charlotte, North Carolina
Paul Heyman Arrives with Members of ECW to Defend Rob Van Dam
Beginning the broadcast of WWE Vengeance is Paul Heyman, walking through the parking lot with the majority of the ECW roster behind him. Heyman suddenly calls for a stop from his wrestlers as he is approached by the Executive Assistant for Vince McMahon and Monday Night Raw, Jonathan Coachman. "Paul, what in the world are you doing?!" He asks, to which Heyman laughs and asks if Coachman didn't catch ECW on Sci Fi this past Tuesday. Coach says no and Heyman says that doesn't surprise him with him being Vince's lackey while also lacking the title of General Manager. "Anyway, Coach, you and I both know that yourself, Vince McMahon and a lot of the Raw roster don't think Rob Van Dam should be carrying the WWE Championship and since my ECW World Heavyweight Champion and your WWE Champion - like it or not - is on enemy turf." Heyman explains that his ECW wrestlers with him tonight are here to back up RVD and it's up to Coachman and the Raw roster as to whether or not it will be necessary to utilize the back up. "So, Coach, tell whoever you need to tell to stay out of the triple threat match tonight for the WWE Championship and we won't have any problems, capiche?" While Coachman seems angry, he bites his tongue and storms off.
Edge and Lita Pay a Visit to the Members of ECW
Seen still standing in the parking lot still an hour in to the show is Paul Heyman and the members of ECW he brought along with him when they are all approached by Edge and Lita. "Take it easy, take it easy!" Edge says with a smile, looking at the group in front of him and saying that he wants to make one thing very clear. "Rob Van Dam? I have a lot of respect for him. But the fact of the matter is that without me he would never have become the WWE Champion!" He says that is what he is going to prove tonight and then Van Dam can go back to being the ECW World Heavyweight Champion. "Because I could care less about that title." Heyman gets up in Edge's face and says that championship has been worn by some of the ballsiest men to ever step foot in a wrestling ring. "You call yourself 'The Rated R Superstar' but you have no idea because some of those men went to hell and back to claim that championship and my friend if it were a movie it would almost be too much for 'Rated R'! And tonight you're going to find out exactly what an ECW Champion is made of when Rob Van Dam kicks your ass and walks out of here with both those of those championships around his waist and returns to ECW on Sci Fi this Tuesday night to tell the world that Edge and the rest of the WWE superstars ain't sh*t!" The crowd inside of the building can be heard reacting loud as Heyman and Edge stare down. It eventually breaks off as Lita has to pull Edge away by the arm.
John Cena Says He Wants a Fair Fight
Just moments ahead of the WWE Championship triple threat match, John Cena comes in to the parking lot and approaches Paul Heyman and the ECW members along with him. "I just wanted to let you know," Cena says to Heyman before looking to the roster behind him. "And all of you know that I want a fair fight tonight. I have no interest in anybody getting involved to screw anybody over on either side. If Rob Van Dam manages to walk out as the WWE Champion then so be it. But I don't want anybody from Raw and I don't want anybody from ECW getting involved." Heyman tells Cena that sounds nice and dandy but Cena is only one man, warning that whether Cena wants a fair fight or not is not truly up to him. "So while we hear you, John, and while we will live up to our end of the bargain, if a single WWE 'superstar' not involved in your match tonight heads down to that ring and tries to screw things up? Then you better believe there will be hell to pay and you just might end up getting caught in the crossfire." Cena nods and says hopefully it doesn't come to that.
(7) Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship: Edge (w/Lita) defeats WWE and ECW World Heavyweight Champion Rob Van Dam and John Cena
In a heated and competitive contest between the three men, each come very close to walking out as the WWE Champion on multiple occasions. The cameras cut backstage mid-match to show Jonathan Coachman stopping many members of his Raw roster from trying to head to the ring. "Listen to me! If any of you go out there right now there will be severe consequences!" He tells them, saying that ECW is waiting in the parking lot and it is not worth it. Back inside of the arena, the match continues to unfold, eventually leading to a Spear from Edge off of the barricade to Cena through the Spanish announce table! RVD sees an opportunity and staggers over to Edge, pulling him up by the hair and tossing him back in to the ring. He then heads to the top rope and looks primed for the Five Star Frog Splash. However, he is suddenly pushed off the turnbuckles by Kurt Angle! "What in the hell?!" Shouts a surprised Jim Ross. The number one contender for Van Dam's ECW World Heavyweight Championship has a smile across his face as RVD staggers back up and turns in to a Spear from Edge! 'The Rated R Superstar' proceeds to hook both legs up and get the one, two, three! Lita enters the ring and the referee presents Edge with the WWE Championship, Angle hopping over the barricade in the meantime. He backs up through the crowd as RVD looks on from the mat with anger in his eyes while Edge continues his celebration of having brought the WWE Championship back to WWE and Raw.
Kurt Angle Is Chased from the Arena by His Own Brand
The cameras catch up to Kurt Angle walking through backstage toward the end of the show when Paul Heyman and the ECW members he brought with him come storming up in his direction. "What the hell is the matter with you?!" Shouts Heyman, throwing his hat in Angle's direction as he scurries away from the angry mob of wrestlers. "Somebody get their hands on that son of a bitch!" He yells as the wrestlers try to go after him. Angle reaches the parking lot and hops in to a window-tinted limousine, the doors being locked as the ECW roster tries to get in after him to no avail as the vehicle ends up peeling out of the arena.

Episode #3 // June 27, 2006 // Roanoke Civic Center // Roanoke, Virginia
Kurt Angle Explains His Actions at Vengeance
Footage from this past Sunday at Vengeance are shown where Paul Heyman and the ECW roster showed up to keep Rob Van Dam protected from the Raw roster possibly costing him the WWE Championship. It was one of their own, however, as Kurt Angle would cost RVD the match. The ECW opening video behind "Bodies" by Drowning Pool airs, the cameras then entering the Roanoke Civic Center where Joey Styles and Tazz welcome everyone to the show, Kurt Angle's music hitting not long after with the crowd booing the Olympic gold medalist. "And of course, there's this turncoat!" Says Styles in disgust. Angle enters the ring with a microphone in his hand, looking around the building and asking the audience if they enjoyed Vengeance this past Sunday night because he sure did. "Everybody wants to know why I screwed Rob Van Dam out of the WWE Championship and you may think it's just because I'm the number one contender for the ECW Championship but it's a lot more than that... see, when Paul was drafting a Raw and Smackdown superstar over to ECW, we all knew he was going to take Rob Van Dam but not everybody knew he was going to take me." Angle explains that Heyman approached him after hearing he would get to make those selections and asked him to be a part of the new version of ECW. Angle says that at first he wasn't so sure, so he went to Mr. McMahon and they had a long talk, which led to him accepting Heyman's proposal. "But the reason I agreed to be a part of ECW wasn't because I wanted to lead the way! It wasn't because I wanted to be 'extreme'! It was because I think that ECW sucks!" The crowd boos him loud as he smirks, saying that he thinks ECW sucks and that he agreed to be a part of the new ECW so he could personally come in and destroy it from the inside. "It all started with me becoming the number one contender for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, then it led to me costing Rob Van Dam the prestigious WWE Championship and sending it back to where it belongs and now the third step will be to go in to our match next week in the ECW homeland of Philadelphia, kick RVD's ass, make him tap out and raise that title above my head and begin my reign as ECW Champion where I will look down on the rest of this pathetic excuse for a roster and remind them each and every single week what a real champion looks like!" He throws the microphone down to the mat and exits the ring, mouthing off to the crowd as he makes his way to the back.
Heyman Confronts Angle and 'Rewards' Him
Seen walking through backstage after a break is Kurt Angle, being stared down by the majority of the ECW locker room as he does so. As he prepares to go to the parking lot, however, Paul Heyman cuts him off. "You know, Kurt, I've seen some sick and twisted people in my day but I think you may take the cake." Angle asks if that is right, to which Heyman says that he isn't going to punish Angle for what he did at Vengeance by hitting him with a fine or a suspension or even revoking his shot at the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. "What I am going to do is reward you... tonight, I'm going to place you in the main event against 'The Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal, Death-Defying Maniac' himself, Sabu!" He says that isn't all, Angle is going to get his shot at the ECW Championship and Rob Van Dam next week in the home of Extreme Championship Wrestling and a state that Angle himself knows very well. "Because it's in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Kurt... and after what you just had to say about ECW, I know that those people can't wait to chew you up and spit you back out. Good luck." Heyman then walks away, leaving Angle to his own thoughts.
(1) Justin Credible (w/Francine) defeats Balls Mahoney
In a rematch from the inaugural episode of ECW on Sci Fi, Mahoney is obviously much more aware of Francine's presence. After an early run of dominance from Credible, Mahoney resorts to using chairs as he is known for. After a brief distraction from Francine, however, Mahoney's chair shot toward Credible is avoided and it hits the ropes, bouncing the chair back in his face. 'The Impact Player' follows up by hitting That's Incredible on to one of Mahoney's chairs, hooking the legs after for the three count. The audience boos as Francine enters the ring with a microphone, handing it over to Credible as he places a foot on Mahoney's chest. "Tommy Dreamer! I hope you're resting up real well after what happened last week... because that beat down I gave you? That wasn't just the coolest, that wasn't just the best... that was Justin Credible!" He lets out a big laugh before leaving the ring with Francine in his arm.
CM Punk Arrives to ECW Next Week
"I am a man of discipline," CM Punk says as he stands backstage after a break. "The key is to quell my passion before the battle, release my passion in the battle... but next week there's no more quelling of my passion for competition. The waiting is over. I've got the opportunity of a life time next week in Philadelphia when I make my debut in ECW... I'm going to make the most of this opportunity. My name... is CM Punk!"
Kelly Kelly's Extreme Expose Debuts
Back inside of the arena, Justin Roberts introduces Kelly Kelly to the crowd as she appears on a stage next to the entrance way. The lights dim down for her and some dance music begins to play as she begins a seductive strip tease. Hopping over the barricade nearby with a beer in his hand is The Sandman, a big smile across his face as he draws closer to Kelly to get a closer look at the show. She plays up to his presence and continues her dance, only to have an unknown bearded man step on to the stage with a towel in his hand and cover her up! Sandman has the same reaction as a lot of the crowd as he throws his hands up in disbelief. "What the hell are you doing?!" He asks as the man drags Kelly away, shouting at her that he told her not to do this anymore!
(2) Super Crazy and Psicosis defeat The F.B.I. (w/Big Guido and Trinity)
Facing off for the third week in a row in the rubber match between the two teams, The F.B.I. are up to their same cheap tactics. Crazy and Psicosis are prepared, however, as they double team Big Guido on the outside and send him crashing over the barricade and in to the crowd. Trinity tries to get involved further but is accidentally knocked off the apron by Mamaluke in to Little Guido, leaving Tony to fall to a sit-out facebuster from Psicosis and moonsault from Crazy that earns them the pinfall. Having succeeded for the second week in a row and seemingly having won this rivalry with The F.B.I., Crazy and Psicosis begin to celebrate the win only to be attacked from behind by Kid Kash and Jamie Noble! After stomping down on the two for a bit, they toss Crazy in to the ring post and then bring Psicosis up to his feet, whipping him off the ropes and hitting him with a Spear/Clothesline combination. The team known as The Pitbulls get back up together, looking out to the booing crowd as they have made their presence known.
(3) Rhyno defeats Stevie Richards
After being defeated by The Sandman last week, Richards comes out to the ring and says that he is not to be taken lightly and therefore he is issuing an open challenge. Having had Rhyno accepted, Richards gets a cheap shot in before the bell, allowing him control out of the gates. Things quickly turn in favor of 'The Man Beast', however, as he uses his power to dominate Richards, eventually leading to him delivering a huge Gore! The cover is made and the referee makes the three count. Continuing to dominate since arriving on the first episode of ECW on Sci Fi, Rhyno raises his fists in the air in celebration after the match while the crowd chants 'Gore!' his way. "Are we going to get another one?!" Questions Styles as Rhyno prepares in the corner. Richards slowly staggers back on to his feet, turning right in to a second, perhaps even more powerful, Gore.
Heyman Adds to Next Week's Show
Transitioning backstage, Paul Heyman is seen walking when he is approached by The Big Show. Heyman insists that he has a lot on his mind right now but Show tells him this will be quick. "Over the past couple of weeks I've had my problems with Sabu. I want you to make it right and give us a match." Heyman takes a moment to think it over and says that next week in Philadelphia is already going to be a big show, no pun intended. "We have Rob Van Dam defending the ECW World Heavyweight Championship against Kurt Angle, CM Punk is debuting... you know what? Screw it. You've got it. Next week, it'll be The Big Show versus Sabu." Show grins but Heyman tells him that tonight, he doesn't want him anywhere near the main event between Angle and Sabu. "You know what Kurt did this past Sunday and he needs to be taught a lesson. Not that I think you would, but if you do get involved, your match with Sabu next week is off! You understand?" Show nods in agreement, saying it's no problem and that he'll save Sabu's ass kicking for next Tuesday.
(4) Kurt Angle defeats Sabu; Rob Van Dam Strikes
In quite the contrast of styles, Angle tries to dominate the match on the mat while Sabu goes for hardcore. While using a steel chair to his advantage multiple times, Sabu gets multiple near falls. He ends up attempting an Arabian Facebuster but Angle manages to avoid it - causing Sabu to crash and burn! Angle then picks the chair up and cracks Sabu right across the face with it! "Oh my God!" Yells Styles upon the loud impact. Angle then proceeds to hit the Angle Slam and make the cover for the one, two, three. The Virginia crowd shows their disdain for the Olympic gold medalist as he gets back to his feet, ripping his arm away from the official as he pulls the straps on his singlet down. "I'm a real champion!" He says to the crowd before taking Sabu by the leg and applying the Ankle Lock! He wrenches away at it proudly, the boos turning in to cheers from the audience, however, as Rob Van Dam comes racing down to the ring! He and Angle go back and forth with strikes, Angle attempting an Angle Slam but having RVD slide off the shoulders, pick up a chair from the mat and deliver the Van Daminator! He then steps out to the apron and requests a microphone. "You think ECW sucks, huh, Kurt?" He questions with a shake of the head. "Well, suck on this!" He then climbs to the top rope and delivers a Five Star Frog Splash! "You tell him, Rob!" Shouts Tazz. RVD assists Sabu back to his feet, looking to the outside at Angle as he lays up against the barricade. The ECW World Heavyweight Champion leads the chant of his name with the crowd as the show comes to an end.

Episode #4 // July 4, 2006 // Wachovia Center // Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Paul Heyman Welcomes Everyone to ECW from Philadelphia
Following the opening ECW video, the cameras pick up backstage to show Paul Heyman standing in his office. "Tonight, ECW on Sci Fi takes place from the home of Extreme Championship Wrestling: Philadelphia." He says that tonight is a special show not just because of where it takes place but because of what is to come tonight. "In just a few moments, The Big Show and Sabu will finally clash as it will be power and size versus hardcore and innovative! The new look of ECW continues to take form when CM Punk makes his debut! And in the main event it will be Rob Van Dam defending the ECW World Heavyweight Championship against Kurt Angle." The crowd boos Angle's name in the background and he smiles, saying he personally agrees.
(1) The Big Show defeats Sabu
After weeks of teasing a battle, Show and Sabu take it to one another in different fashions as Show's power is combated against by Sabu's use of weapons. The crowd is stunned after Show survives an Arabian Skullcrusher through a table, Sabu appearing just as surprised as he is forced to try and regroup. He goes for his signature springboard off of a chair and ropes as Show starts to stir but is caught in mid-air, adjusted and chokeslammed right on top of the chair! Show then makes the cover for the three count. The boos come down from the crowd as Show gets back on to his feet, albeit slowly as he clearly is feeling the effects of Sabu's hardcore style. He looks out to the disapproving audience and throws his hands out in front of him. He then exits the ring and marches toward the back while clearly not caring what the fans think.
Tommy Dreamer Calls out Justin Credible
After a break, Joey Styles and Tazz are talking at ringside about the match between Big Show and Sabu from just moments ago and how we still have a lot more to get to. Before they can discuss any further of what is to come tonight, Tommy Dreamer's music hits and the 'Heart and Soul of ECW' arrives from the back, heading to the ring and looking like he means business. "Over the past couple of weeks I've had to put with crap after crap from Justin Credible!" He says, bringing up how Credible can't stop talking about when he won the ECW World Heavyweight Championship from him six years ago. "You keep talking up about that one accolade, Justin! You keep talking up that one great thing you did! Yet you've been hitting me with cheap shots and you've been hiding behind Francine. Well, tonight, I want you to bring your ass down to this ring so I can start kicking it because I am sick of listening to you run your mouth!" Dreamer paces back and forth for a while, waiting until Justin Credible himself arrives from backstage along with Francine. They approach the ring but stop outside of it, Dreamer asking if Credible is going to man up and get in here face-to-face with him and stop being a coward. "Tommy, I am a different man than you are! I am not washed up! I have potential going forward while you? You have nothing to offer the new ECW." Dreamer scoffs as Credible continues on by saying that Dreamer has been obsessed with becoming ECW World Heavyweight Champion ever since that day six years ago where his dream was ripped away from him and he never got the chance to wear that title around his waist. "And you never will get to feel that, Tommy. Because like I said... you're washed up and you've still got people like me standing in your way and that's not just the coolest, not just the best... it's Justin Credible!" He laughs along with Francine, Dreamer re-iterating how he isn't here to listen to Credible run his mouth anymore. "What would be incredible is if you'd grow a pair and step in to this ring!" Credible thinks for a moment and begins to get on to the ring apron, only to step right off and head towards backstage with Francine. The Philadelphia crowd boos him heavily for backing down and Dreamer is left shaking his head.
(2) CM Punk defeats CW Anderson
Making his ECW in-ring debut, Punk has the Philadelphia crowd well behind him as the veteran Anderson tries to silence the fans by keeping Punk grounded. The straight-edge superstar, however, makes a comeback with a ton of strikes. After a running knee in the corner, Punk delivers a running bulldog, letting Anderson get up before hitting a uranage that leads to the Anaconda Vice! Anderson struggles very briefly in the hold before tapping out. Unlike Big Show before him, Punk is very integrated with the fans following the conclusion of the match, playing up to them and even going out in to the audience to celebrate his successful debut.
The Pitbulls Attack
Seen backstage is Super Crazy and Psicosis talking with each other in Spanish when they are suddenly attacked from behind by Kid Kash and Jamie Noble! The Pitbulls, one week after making their ECW debut, begin a vicious assault on Crazy and Psicosis for the second week in a row as they throw the two in to the walls and production trunks around. After laying the two out side-by-side, Kash and Noble lean over the bodies of Crazy and Psicosis and warn them that this is their yard, not their's.
Kelly Kelly's Extreme Expose: Take Two
Back inside of the arena, Justin Roberts introduces Kelly Kelly to the crowd as it is time for her Extreme Expose. "Hey, last week's show was cut short!" Says Tazz. "Hopefully that changes! Hush, Joey, this is art!" Kelly dances for a bit, The Sandman seen coming through the crowd and hopping the barricade for the second week in a row as he looks to enjoy the show up close once again. Kelly gets up close to him and prepares to remove her bra but for the second week in a row, a bearded man arrives and covers her up with a towel much to the chagrin of Sandman and the audience. The man begins to pull Kelly toward the entrance but Sandman comes up behind them and pulls him around by the hair! The man shoves back but Sandman responds with a shot to the stomach via his singapore cane! After playing up to the crowd a bit, he continues to strike down across the back with the cane until the man is able to stumble his way toward the back. With Kelly in tow of him, Sandman shakes his head and heads down to ringside where he climbs on to the barricade to enjoy a beer and bust himself open much to the delight of his hometown crowd.
(3) ECW World Heavyweight Championship: Kurt Angle defeats Rob Van Dam(c)
In the much anticipated main event of the evening, Angle and RVD have a lengthy, back-and-forth match that covers the ins and outs of the ring. After a sick Van Terminator leads to a near fall, RVD looks absolutely stunned at Angle kicking out. He heads to the top rope in a daze afterward, going for the Five Star Frog Splash only for Angle to put both knees up! RVD struggles back on to his feet off of it and walks right in to the Angle Slam only for Van Dam to shock Angle right back by getting his shoulder up just in time! "What's it going to take to put either of these men away?!" Questions Styles. Both men get up and slug it out, Angle with a desperate low blow after being knocked down to a knee! The boos of the audience turn quickly to cheers, however, as rushing down to the ring is Rhyno! He kneels in the corner, waving his hand up and down behind Angle. Kurt drags RVD back up by his hair and eats a kick to the side of the head - knocking him right back down. Van Dam then sees Rhyno across the ring. "Hey, I got this, bro!" He says, his eyes suddenly widening as Rhyno charges at him and delivers a Gore! "OH MY GOD!" Yells a shocked Styles. "WHAT THE HELL IS RHYNO DOING?! NO! NO!" Rhyno rolls out of the ring and backs away from the ring, Angle staggering back on to his feet and pulling Van Dam back up in order to deliver the Angle Slam! He hooks the far leg and the referee counts the one, two, three! The Philadelphia fans boo as Angle gets to a knee with a smile on his face, the official presenting him with the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. "Kurt Angle came to ECW to spit in it's face and he's going to get to do just that by wearing that prestigious title around his waist!" Says a disgusted Tazz. "And it's all thanks to Rhyno! I can't believe what I'm seeing, Joey..." As Rhyno watches on from the entry way with a twisted grin across his face, Angle holds the championship above his head while smack talking the disapproving crowd. With that, ECW on Sci Fi comes to an end.

Episode #5 // July 11, 2006 // Target Center // Minneapolis, Minnesota
The New ECW World Heavyweight Champion Is Here
Footage from last week's episode of ECW on Sci Fi is shown with Big Show defeating Sabu, CM Punk making his debut and defeating CW Anderson. In the main event, the ECW World Heavyweight Championship would be on the line as Kurt Angle would beat Rob Van Dam with shocking help from Rhyno to win the championship. The cameras then come inside of the Target Center in Minneapolis, the voice of a clearly disgruntled Joey Styles giving the introduction on commentary as he sits alongside Tazz, whom isn't very happy either. Their mood continues to show as Kurt Angle's music hits. The new ECW World Heavyweight Champion makes his way down to the ring to boos from the Minnesota crowd and he eats it right up, telling the fans that he told them so. "I told each and every one of you that I would win this championship and show week in and week out to all of you stupid people and all of those idiots in the back what a real champion looks like!" He says that he is someone to be admired, unlike Rob Van Dam. "RVD 4:20 says I just smoked your ass?! What kind of role model is that?! The bottom line is... Kurt Angle is your new ECW World Heavyweight Champion. I beat RVD last week. I'll beat anyone that dares try and step up to me because I am the best wrestler in the world! Oh, it's true! It's damn true!"
Angle prepares to leave the ring but the music of Paul Heyman interrupts. He marches his way down to the ring and steps right in, staying in the corner as he stares Angle down. "You're lucky I am a fair man, Mr. Angle." He says, stating that Angle is the ECW World Heavyweight Champion and there is nothing he can or will do about it himself. "You won last week! But you wouldn't have won if it weren't for Rhyno..." Angle scoffs and shakes his head, trying to tell Heyman that what Rhyno did last week is irrelevant, claiming he would have been walking out with the title either way. Heyman says that it is possible that he would have walked out champion but what did happen happened. "So, as our new ECW World Heavyweight Champion you should have no problem defending that title, correct? Well, you're going to do just that when you face Rob Van Dam in a rematch." Angle says that's fine with him and he'll prove to Heyman that he didn't need any help from Rhyno. Heyman smirks, saying he is happy to hear that because it is going to be Angle defending the ECW World Heavyweight Championship against RVD in a Steel Cage Match! "I wish you the best of luck, sir. May the best man win." Heyman then leaves the ring, Angle not appearing to be phased by the news.
(1) CM Punk defeats Stevie Richards
After his very successful in-ring ECW debut last week, Punk looks to keep it rolling against another veteran in Richards. After a missed Stevie Kick, Punk unloads with strikes and ends up hitting Richards with a running knee in the corner that he follows up with a bulldog in to the Anaconda Vice, Richards struggling very briefly before finding himself with no choice but to tap out. "Another impressive outing for CM Punk!" Says Styles. Punk gets to his feet and has his arm raised as the future looks bright for the straight edge wrestler.
The Big Show and CM Punk Meet
After a commercial break, ECW's newest competitor CM Punk is seen walking through the back, a smile on his face after his second straight week with a victory. He is stopped in his tracks and his smile fades a bit as he is approached by The Big Show. The two stare down briefly before Show congratulates Punk on his wins the last two weeks. "But this is going to become my yard. Not yours." Punk nods and tells Show that he gets that he is 'The World's Largest Athlete', but the bigger they are, the harder they fall. "And maybe we'll find out exactly how hard you do fall some time, Show. Because as far as I'm concerned... this yard is still unclaimed and could just as easily become reserved by CM Punk." He then continues on his way, having left Show in silence.
Kelly Kelly's Extreme Expose is... Canceled?
Back inside of the arena, seen standing in the ring is Kelly Kelly and the bearded man that has put a stop to her Extreme Expose the last couple of weeks. The man holds a microphone in his hand and reveals his name to be Mike Knox, saying that he is Kelly's boyfriend. "And over the past few weeks, you people have called for my girlfriend to take off her clothing!" He says that nobody has the right to look at her like he does and that she is his, nobody else's. "I have worked hard to get her to stop doing this... because it isn't necessary! And all of you sick, perverted people keep egging her on and it stops today because I am cancelling Extreme Expose!" The audience boos the announcement, Kelly looking very disappointed herself. Knox tries to keep going but is cut off by the music of The Sandman. The ECW veteran steps out in the crowd and, in signature fashion, drinks beer and busts himself open on the way down to the ring. Once inside, he looks up and down at Knox and asks who the hell he thinks he is. "You want to ruin everyone's good time, huh?" Knox points at Sandman and says he isn't looking for any trouble, to which Sandman asks if he didn't enjoy getting caned last week. Knox again tells Sandman he doesn't want any trouble, he just wants people to stop looking at Kelly. Perhaps taking that as a challenge, Sandman steps around Knox and looks up and down at Kelly, drinking from his beer before going to pour it on her! Knox takes exception to it and delivers a boot to the face! Kelly backs down with a horrified look across her face as Knox assaults The Sandman with punches and knees. He brings Sandman to the outside and after tossing him in to the steel steps, delivers a swinging reverse STO on to the floor! Kelly still looks horrified from the ring, Knox getting back to his feet and demanding she come with him. She hesitantly does so, Knox taking her by the wrist and dragging her behind him on the way to the back.
(2) The Pitbulls defeat Danny Doring and Roadkill
Following weeks of words and attacks, Jamie Noble and Kid Kash finally get in to the ring and end up with a tough battle against Doring and Roadkill. After the agile Amish big man misses on a splash in the corner, he gets knocked to the outside and it leaves Doring to try and fight the two on his own, eventually falling to Noble and Kash's signature Clothesline/Spear combination, leading to the pinfall. Winning their first match on ECW, The Pitbulls celebrate by posing together like rabid dogs against the ropes.
Heyman Warns RVD
Seen in his office backstage is Paul Heyman with an enraged Rob Van Dam, whom says that the last couple of weeks have been some of the worst of his life. "Kurt Angle screwing me over? Alright, yeah, I could see that happening. But Rhyno?! Rhyno!? What the hell, Paul?!" Heyman says he wishes he knew too but he hasn't been able to get Rhyno to answer his calls or anything since last week. Van Dam puts his hands on his hips and says that he needs to get to the bottom of this and he knows there is only one way to get Rhyno's attention and that is to go down to the ring and call him out tonight. Heyman stands up from his desk and tells RVD that he is warning him to be careful. "We've known Rhyno for a long time and we know how crazy he can get... if you want any chance at restoring the honor of the ECW World Heavyweight Championship next week against Kurt Angle, you're going to need to be careful out there." RVD says he isn't worried because he's a got a plan.
(3) Justin Credible (w/Francine) defeats Tommy Dreamer
With weeks of build up and hatred between Credible and Dreamer, Tommy comes out firing on all cylinders and brings out a trash can full of weapons that he makes sure to use. The match turns in to a back and forth slug fest with Dreamer eventually gaining the upper hand. He goes to use a steel chair on Credible but Francine grabs it from behind on the apron. Tommy's eyes widen in anger and he turns to Francine - grabbing her by the hair and forcing her to drop the chair to the floor below. As Dreamer tries to bring her in the ring, however, Credible strikes him from behind with a stop sign to the back of the head! He then delivers the That's Incredible on to the emptied trash can, allowing him to hook both legs and get the three count. The boos fill up in the Target Center as Credible emerges to his feet, a bit banged up but a smile on his face as he is joined in the ring by Francine, whom holds a microphone and hands it over to him. "Oh, Tommy... some things never change... I still own you! And that's not just the coolest, not just the best... that's Justin Credible!" He throws the microphone back down and leaves the ring with Francine, Dreamer left motionless.
Rob Van Dam Calls Out Rhyno
The music of the former WWE and ECW World Heavyweight Champion Rob Van Dam hits following the break and 'The Whole F'n Show' doesn't have his usual positive vibes showing as he heads down to the ring and calls for a microphone. "Let's talk about the elephant in the room, huh? Let's talk about how just a couple of weeks ago, I was standing here with not one but two championships around my waist and now I've got none." He shrugs his shoulders and says that he never thought that would happen so fast but it did. "And while I have a chance at regaining the ECW Title next week against Kurt Angle, I'm out here because I want answers from the guy who screwed me out of that championship a week ago: Rhyno." Van Dam points up to the titantron and it shows the replay from last week where Rhyno hit him with a Gore and allowed Angle to win the match. Back in the arena, RVD shakes his head and says that he doesn't understand it because Rhyno has always bled ECW just like himself and all the other originals in the back. "So for him to allow someone like Kurt Angle... who spits in the face of everything ECW is and was... to hold that title? I don't get it, man. Come on, Rhyno! I want answers! We all want answers!" RVD paces back and forth in the ring but gets no response at first, prompting him to continue questioning Rhyno. "What is this about, man?! Do you hate ECW now?!"
Finally, Rhyno's music hits and 'The Man Beast' steps out from the back with a hooded sweatshirt on, covering his face partially. RVD approaches the ropes after Rhyno stays in place and asks if he is going to come down to the ring and explain himself. "What? You don't think you owe anyone an explanation? You just spit in the face of everything ECW just like Kurt Angle did! You're no better than him for what you did!" Rhyno looks around to the booing fans and finally pulls a microphone out from his jacket pocket, pulling it up and looking prepared to speak only to just lower the mike back down. "The least this piece of crap can do is explain himself!" Shouts Styles. Van Dam says this clearly isn't going anywhere, so maybe instead of words they throw fists instead! He steps out of the ring and the crowd cheers. Those cheers, however, quickly turn to boos as RVD is taken from behind suddenly by Kurt Angle and laid out with an Angle Slam on to the floor! The ECW World Heavyweight Champion seizes the opportunity and proceeds to apply an Ankle Lock, wrenching away at the hold all while Rhyno stays watching from afar. Angle drops to the floor and wraps his legs around RVD's. Multiple officials and security come racing down from the back to try and pull Angle off as a disgusted Joey Styles signs off from commentary.

Episode #6 // July 18, 2006 // American Bank Center // Corpus Christi, Texas
Rhyno and Heyman Meet
After a recap of last week's episode of ECW on Sci Fi where Rob Van Dam would call out Rhyno, get no answers and be assaulted by Kurt Angle, the opening ECW video airs. The cameras then pan to the backstage parts of the American Bank Center, Paul Heyman seen pacing back and forth in his office until the door opens. "About time!" He says with Rhyno walking in and approaching. "What kind of person calls and asks for a meeting and shows up an hour late?" Heyman asks, to which Rhyno remains silent. Heyman says to forget it, questioning what Rhyno wanted to meet with him about. 'The Man Beast' crosses his arms and explains that he wants what is rightfully his. "The ECW World Heavyweight Championship." Heyman scoffs and asks if Rhyno is being serious, especially after what he did to Rob Van Dam and the ECW brand altogether two weeks ago. "The answer is no, Rhyno! You're not getting the ECW World Heavyweight Championship! You're not even getting an opportunity! I would have considered something like that had you spit in the face of me and every single person that bleeds ECW." Rhyno nods, saying that he understands - but warns Heyman that this is a big mistake and there will be hell to pay. He then leaves the room, leaving Heyman looking very unhappy.
(1) The Big Show defeats Balls Mahoney
Looking to continue his domination since the return of ECW, Show overpowers a powerful man in his own right in Mahoney. Balls tries to introduce a chair in to the match but ends up getting it booted in to his face after just a few shots to the back. Show then delivers a Chokeslam on to the chair and makes the cover for the three count. After having his arm raised as the winner, Show decides to add insult to injury and hits a second Chokeslam on Mahoney before finally leaving the ring and heading to the back.
Punk Challenges Show
After a break, The Big Show is seen walking backstage when he is approached by CM Punk. The two stare one another down, Punk mentioning how they met for the first time last week and talked about possibly finding out how hard Show falls. "How about we find that out next week?" Show laughs to himself and tells Punk he's on, but he'll regret it as soon as that bell rings. They then continue on their separate ways.
Knox and Kelly Have a Disagreement
Seen elsewhere in the back is Mike Knox and Kelly Kelly, the two arguing about Kelly wanting to continue her Extreme Expose after Knox said it was canceled last week. "I told you, Kelly, that isn't necessary anymore! I have a contract with ECW now and I am going to be the biggest star it has to offer and all you have to do now is stand in my corner!" Kelly puts her head down and mutters something under her breath, Knox asking what she just said. "I said that maybe I like doing it..." She says, prompting Knox to grab her by the face and tell her that it's over and that's it. "Now, I've got my first match here on ECW and I would appreciate it if you'd keep your clothes on and follow me out there." They then head off together for Knox's upcoming match.
Credible Is Confronted by Sabu
Standing backstage is Justin Credible and Francine, 'The Impact Player' saying that ever since ECW returned, he has shown everyone that he is not an afterthought. "I've shown that I am still better than Tommy Dreamer, that I am still 'The Impact Player'!" He tries to recite his signature line along with Francine about being 'Justin Credible' but is stopped halfway through as Sabu arrives on to the scene, breathing heavily in Credible's face. "You're right, there's a lot of things that are the same around here... just like how I could still destroy you!" Credible asks if that's so, telling Sabu to prove it. Sabu then turns around and begins to walk off, Credible laughing to Francine but having that come to an end quickly as a chair ends up flying and hitting him right in the head! Sabu then walks off once again, leaving Credible down and stunned!
(2) Mike Knox (w/Kelly Kelly) defeats Al Snow
Very aggressive out of the gate is Knox, looking well on his way to an easy victory. He ends up being distracted though by Kelly's decision to start flirting with members of the crowd. As she starts to pull her top off, however, he ends up coming out behind her and putting a stop to it. As he is berating her for her actions, Snow runs up from behind and hits Knox in the back with Head! Snow turns his attention to Kelly and covers the eyes of Head as she starts to flirt with him! Knox ends up throwing Snow in to the steel steps from behind and after yelling at Kelly again, he returns to the ring and hits a swinging reverse STO on Snow and gets the three count. Knox gets right back to his feet and glares to the outside at Kelly, demanding she get in the ring and raise his arm. She is very hesitant to do so, getting close to Knox but not getting the chance to hold his arm up as The Sandman's music hits! Knox looks all around the arena to try and find Sandman in the crowd but, surprisingly, Sandman ends up coming in to the ring from behind and he cracks Knox right across the head with his singapore cane! Sandman paces back and forth over Knox's body, looking to Kelly as he pulls the big man back up in order to drop him with a White Russian Legsweep. Sandman then celebrates with some beers, saying something in Kelly's ear before exiting the ring and leaving through the cheering crowd.
A Mysterious Trio Interrupt the Broadcast
Back inside of the American Bank Center, Joey Styles and Tazz discuss the main event still to come later on with Kurt Angle and Rob Van Dam inside of a Steel Cage for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. Their discussion is suddenly cut off, however, as their feed is interrupted by a dark lit room - blood suddenly being splattered on to the screen. A person, blurred by the lens of the camera being covered, stands behind it and laughs to himself with two other people walking behind him, holding each other close.
The Pitbulls Get a Taste of Their Own Medicine
The cameras then cut backstage to Kid Kash and Jamie Noble, The Pitbulls, as they are walking backstage together when they are suddenly attacked from behind by Super Crazy and Psicosis! After being targeted at the hands of The Pitbulls a couple of weeks back on two separate occasions, Crazy and Psicosis seek revenge as they toss Kash and Noble over sets of tables. Before they can do any more harm, backstage officials arrive on to the scene to pull the two back, The Pitbulls left shocked and angered.
(3) Steel Cage Match for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship: Kurt Angle(c) defeats Rob Van Dam
From right off the bat, Angle and RVD go all out against one another. After a belly-to-belly suplex in to the cage, RVD looks to be in trouble but he surprises Angle with a big comeback. After knocking the champion between the ropes, RVD hits a leaping kick that crushes Kurt's head in to the cage wall! Angle falls back in to the ring and Van Dam begins to make his way up the cage, sitting on top of it and looking around to the Texas crowd. He then gets on to his feet atop the cage, pointing to himself with his thumbs and having the crowd chant his name in signature fashion before diving off with a Five Star Frog Splash! "OH MY GOD!" Styles exclaims in disbelief. RVD rolls around in pain upon impact as Angle is motionless! Van Dam then begins to crawl toward the door, having it be opened as he looks to escape. He crawls and crawls and gets his body partially out only for the door of the cage to be slammed in to his head by Rhyno! The audience boos loud as Rhyno doesn't stop with just one slam of the door, but instead delivers it again and again! After eight total shots to the head, he pulls himself in to the ring and assists Angle in getting to the door and escaping the cage. "What the hell is the matter with Rhyno? This is the second time he has screwed Rob Van Dam out of the ECW Championship!" Says Tazz. As Angle gets himself up against the barricade on the outside and starts to stagger his way toward the back with the title, the cage is raised up with Rhyno standing in the corner and waving his hand up and down. RVD slowly pulls himself back to his feet via the ropes, turning right in to an absolutely brutal Gore from 'The Man Beast'! The jeers continue to rain down on Rhyno as he gets back to his feet, raising his fists over his head with a scowl as he has lived up to his promise to Paul Heyman at the beginning of the night that there would be hell to pay for not getting what he wanted.

Episode #7 // July 25, 2006 // Joe Louis Arena // Detroit, Michigan
Paul Heyman Makes a Summerslam Announcement
After footage from last week's episode of ECW airs and the opening video to the show airs, the cameras come in to the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan as the voice of Joey Styles welcomes everyone in from commentary alongside Tazz. Kicking things off this week is Paul Heyman as he marches his way down from the back and in to the ring. Holding a microphone in his hand, Heyman says that he has come out here tonight not to talk about the situation with Rhyno. "And while that weighs heavy on my mind and I am aware that something will have to be done in regards to that, I am out here to make a groundbreaking announcement involving the ECW brand and the biggest WWE pay-per-view event of the summer... that's right: Summerslam." He says that it is his honor to let everyone know that ECW has been granted not one, but two slots on the Summerslam card this year and he has been thinking for the past few days since he received this news about what he could possibly do to represent ECW in the best way possible. "I thought... how about a classic Extreme Rules match? No, no, that'd be too simple! What if we put the ECW World Heavyweight Championship on the line?! Again, not enough. What ECW needs to do is... something innovative... something... over the top..." He paces around briefly and then looks in to the hard camera and says an Extreme Elimination Chamber match! "What does he mean Extreme Elimination Chamber?" Asks Tazz. Heyman says it will be everything like the standard Elimination Chamber but with an ECW twist as not only will there be a competitor in each pod, but a weapon along with them that can be introduced in to the match at the same time they are. "And this match? Will be for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, ladies and gentlemen. And tonight we will begin to find out who the five challengers to Kurt Angle will be as we will have two qualifying matches. In our main event, The Big Show takes on CM Punk!" The crowd cheers for that announcement with Heyman saying the other match will be taking place right now as we will have two ECW originals facing off as it will be Tommy Dreamer versus Stevie Richards.
(1) Extreme Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match: Tommy Dreamer defeats Stevie Richards
What looks to be a standard match with some take downs and slams early on ends up turning in to quite the extreme battle after Richards introduces a chair in to the match. Dreamer responds with a trash can filled with weapons, dumping everything out and using signs and canes and the can itself. After avoiding a Stevie Kick, he hits a boot to the stomach and hits a DDT followed by the Dreamer Driver on to the can. He hooks both legs and gets the pinfall, advancing to the Summerslam and another shot at the ECW Championship.
Angle Confronts Heyman
The cameras cut backstage to show Paul Heyman walking through the halls when he is suddenly cut off by the ECW World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle. "An Extreme Elimination Chamber match?! Are you kidding me?!" Angle asks in disbelief, cutting Heyman off before even hearing a response and explaining to him that he should be shown more respect as the 'most decorated ECW Champion ever'. Heyman finally tells Angle to shut up and says that if he doesn't like it, he doesn't have to defend the title at Summerslam. "Really?" Angle asks, to which Heyman explains he can just forfeit it over right now instead. Angle obviously isn't interested in doing that, so Heyman says that he'll have to deal with his decision then. "Oh... I almost forgot, Kurt. Next week? ECW returns to the Hammerstein Ballroom. Y'know that place you love so much? And you're going to be in action against the man that just qualified for the Extreme Elimination Chamber and the man you faced on the very first episode of ECW on Sci Fi: Tommy Dreamer. Good luck." Heyman then continues on his way, Angle left looking very unhappy with Heyman's decisions.
Rhyno Has One Final Offer
Standing backstage after a break is Rhyno, looking in to the camera and saying that last week he made it very clear what he wanted from Paul Heyman and he got nothing in return, thus he did what he wanted. "I took Rob Van Dam out! I crushed his skull with the door of that steel cage over and over again! So bad that he couldn't even make it to the show this week..." Rhyno says that he has one final offer for Paul Heyman and RVD and he wants to make that offer next week in the Hammerstein Ballroom. "And if my offer is declined? The consequences that RVD suffered last week will be nothing compared to what they'll be next time."
(2) The Pitbulls defeat Super Crazy and Psicosis
Looking to finally gain revenge on Noble and Kash in the best way with a victory, Crazy and Psicosis dominate the majority of the match with their quick and high flying styles. After Psicosis is tripped coming off the ropes by Kash and tossed in to the steel steps, Crazy is rolled up from behind by Noble for a near fall. Crazy gets right back up but walks right in to the Clothesline/Spear combination of The Pitbulls which leads to the pinfall for Noble. The Detroit crowd boos as Kash and Noble rip their arms away from the referee, positioning themselves against the ropes and growling at the audience as The Pitbulls have once again shown that they mean business when it comes to tag team wrestling on the ECW brand.
The Mysterious Trio Interrupt Again
At ringside after a break, Joey Styles and Tazz discuss how tonight's show opened with Paul Heyman making the announcement that at Summerslam the ECW World Heavyweight Championship will be defended in an Extreme Elimination Chamber match. Before they can get too deep in to the conversation, however, they are cut off for the second week in a row by a feed of a darkly lit room. Blood is once again splattered over the camera lens, three figures approaching close behind it. The one in front runs their finger across the blood, spelling out 'SOON'. The feed then cuts back out and the cameras return back inside of the Joe Louis Arena.
(3) Justin Credible (w/Francine) defeats Al Snow
After coming up short against Mike Knox last week, Snow looks to get back on the winning side but very quickly things turn Credible's way after interference from Francine a minute in. After a boot to the face in the corner, Snow is put down with That's Incredible and is covered for the three count. Credible is quick to get back to his feet, Francine joining him in the ring with a microphone. "Did you see that, Sabu?!" Credible asks while looking in to the camera. "You think you can destroy me? You think you have what it takes?! No, you don't! Because I'm not just the coolest, I'm not just the best... I'm Just-" He stops suddenly as the lights in the arena suddenly go out. They come back up shortly thereafter and Sabu stands in the ring behind Credible and Francine. A steel chair in hand, he throws it across the ring at Credible and hits him right in the face! Francine is quick to hurry out of the ring, assisting 'The Impact Player' out as Sabu steps to the middle of the ring and points to the sky in signature form as Credible stumbles toward the back.
Kelly Kelly Runs in to The Sandman
Seen backstage is Mike Knox and Kelly Kelly, the two talking with each other. Knox tells Kelly to stay put while he gets dressed for their date. "I made sure I wasn't in a match tonight so I would be able to give my full attention to you tonight." He then goes in to the room behind Kelly, whom looks around while waiting when she is approached by The Sandman. He guzzles down a beer and clears his throat, properly introducing himself to Kelly. "I dig what you do out there with the whole... y'know... And if I were you? I'd lose the crappy boyfriend and keep on doing it." She thanks him but says that her and Knox have been together for a little while now. "And while we have our disagreements... I still like him." Sandman scoffs and tells Kelly that she can either try and make one controlling guy happy or a bunch of laid back dudes like him happy. She smiles back at Sandman and the door opens behind them, Knox coming out and asking if Sandman is looking for another beat down like he got two weeks ago. "Are you looking for another ass kicking like you got last week?" Sandman retorts. Knox takes Kelly by the shoulders and turns her away, saying that it's time to go. As she begins to walk away, Knox points at Sandman and warns him to stay away from the two of them - or else!
Punk Confident Heading in to His Giant Clash
Transitioning elsewhere in the back, CM Punk is standing by and he says that tonight is the biggest opportunity of his entire career. "Not only am I stepping in to the ring with The Big Show but I am stepping in to the ring with a chance of a lifetime: To enter the first ever Extreme Elimination Chamber match and compete for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship." He says that he came to ECW ready to fight the biggest and the best and he certainly gets that with Show tonight and he does not plan on letting this opportunity slip through his fingers. He then walks off as the main event is coming up next.
(4) Extreme Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match: The Big Show defeats CM Punk
Facing an obvious uphill battle, Punk is dominated by the power of Show repeatedly despite his multiple attempts at overcoming the size differential. "You have to give it to Punk, he had his first match on ECW less than a month ago and is already facing this task of battling 'The World's Largest Athlete'!" Says Styles. After breaking out of Show's grasp with kicks, Punk ends up getting knocked to the outside with a boot to the face. He reaches under the ring and has his hair grabbed from inside by Show. Punk is dragged up on to the apron and he swings a singapore cane over his shoulder and in to Show's head! Punk then races to the top rope and dives off but is swatted in mid-air right in the stomach. Show then reaches down and takes Punk by the throat and goes to lift him for a chokeslam but takes another shot to the face with the cane! Punk relentlessly attacks until Show is knocked in to the corner, a running knee to the chin being delivered with Punk then applying the Anaconda Vice after Show falls down! Punk wrenches away at the hold but Show uses everything he has to get back on to his feet and toss the newcomer off of him and in to the corner. Show then proceeds to deliver not one, but two Chokeslams before making the cover that leads to the pinfall. The audience is upset as Show emerges back to his feet, getting his arm raised as the winner. "CM Punk showed a lot of heart tonight and earned a lot of respect, definitely mine!" Says Tazz. "This kid has a bright future ahead of him!" Show exits the ring and heads to the back while Punk slowly gets back to his feet, having his efforts tonight being appreciated by the crowd as they cheer for him. He waves to the fans with a smile despite obvious disappointment at just coming up short as ECW on Sci Fi concludes.

Episode #8 // August 1, 2006 // Hammerstein Ballroom // Manhattan, New York
Rhyno Gives His "Final Offer"
Following the intro video for ECW on Sci Fi, the cameras come in to the Hammerstein Ballroom from Manhattan, New York where the crowd, as expected, is very loud and ready for the show to get underway. The theme music of Rhyno then hits and 'The Man Beast' arrives to a mixed reaction from the crowd. He pulls away from the fans that try to high five and reach out for him and he enters the ring with a microphone in hand. "Being back in the Hammerstein Ballroom gives me memories... those memories used to be good! Because it was in this building that I became the last ever ECW World Heavyweight Champion!" He says that is his biggest gripe with Paul Heyman and Rob Van Dam and the new ECW. "Because when I decided to come back and I decided to have Paul and Rob's back, what did I get? I got tossed to the side while Kurt Angle and Tommy Dreamer were put in a number one contender's match! So I did what I had to do and I sent a message." He says that it clearly didn't work when he cost RVD the ECW World Heavyweight Championship the first time but maybe it did the second time. He says that he is here tonight to give his final offer to Heyman and RVD or else things will get even worse.
Shortly thereafter, Rob Van Dam's music hits to a big ovation from the crowd. He storms his way down to the ring and tells Rhyno he doesn't care what his offer is, he just wants to kick his ass! The two get nose-to-nose and it leads to Paul Heyman hurrying out from the back and telling RVD to hold on. Heyman comes down and in to the ring and steps in between Van Dam and Rhyno, telling the latter that this better be good. "First things first, Rob. This isn't my fault, it's Paul's. You and I both know he should have had me facing Angle that first night, not Tommy! And we all know I would have won and we all know I would have beaten you for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship!" RVD tries to push through Heyman to tell Rhyno if he wanted a match all he had to do was speak up and not act like a bitch about it instead! Rhyno laughs as Heyman continues to try and keep Van Dam back. "My final offer to the two of you is to give me that second match spot at Summerslam versus you, Rob. If I win, I get my rightful shot at the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. If you somehow win, you get another crack at the title and I'm banned from getting involved." Heyman says not only that, but he'll be fired if he does! Rhyno agrees and extends his hand, Heyman reluctant to accept it but doing so. RVD has no interest in accepting Rhyno's gesture as he exits the ring instead with Heyman not too far behind him.
(1) Extreme Elimination Chamber Qualifier: Sabu defeats Little Guido (w/Big Guido, Tony Mamaluke and Trinity)
Having to combat against the rest of The F.B.I. on the outside, Sabu looks to be in trouble until he pulls out steel chairs and utilizes them on Big Guido and Mamaluke. Trinity tries to get involved by getting on the apron but Sabu ducks under a Little Guido dropkick and Trinity ends up falling off the apron in to Mamaluke, which leaves Little Guido to get hit with a chair to the face followed by the Arabian Facebuster which leads to the pinfall. The crowd cheers for 'The Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal, Death Defying' Sabu as he gets back to his feet and points to the sky, having secured the fourth spot in the Extreme Elimination Chamber match.
Punk and Show Meet Up Backstage
Seen walking in the back is The Big Show when he is approached by CM Punk. The two stare at one another with Punk finally speaking up and telling Show that last week was the biggest test of his career, no pun intended. "And I'd like to thank you for that, Show. I'd like to thank you for that because it opened my eyes and it made me realize it isn't going to be that easy but I just want to let you know that while I congratulate you on your victory over me, this isn't over." Show chuckles and tells Punk that if he is considering stepping back in the ring with him then he is making a big mistake. "Do yourself a favor and think about your future, kid." Show keeps on walking, Punk left shaking his head.
(2) Mike Knox (w/Kelly Kelly) defeats The Sandman
The Hammerstein Ballroom is ruthless with Knox and Kelly, obscene chants galore. They get fired up after Sandman introduces his singapore cane and begins to unleash on Knox! He follows him to the outside and Kelly steps in front of her boyfriend, begging Sandman to stop. The ECW original is hesitant and ends up pushing Kelly out of the way, swinging the cane at Knox but having it be avoided with Knox shoving him face first in to the ring post and then back in to the ring. After a boot to the face, the Knox Out is delivered. Both legs are hooked and the referee counts the one, two, three. The boos rain down on Knox as he gets back to his feet with his fists raised in the air. He steps out of the ring and forcefully grabs Kelly by the wrist, dragging her toward the back while getting hounded by the crowd. The Sandman, meanwhile, pulls himself up via the ropes in a daze looking very upset.
A Mysterious Trio Is Arriving Very Soon
After footage from the opening of tonight's show, Joey Styles and Tazz talk about how we are just under three weeks away from Summerslam where ECW will feature the Extreme Elimination Chamber match as well as, now, Rob Van Dam versus Rhyno in a Number One Contender's match. Styles says that we have a match in just a few moments to determine the fifth participant in the ECW World Heavyweight Championship match but next week, we will have a ten man battle royal to determine the sixth and final entrant in that match. The feed of Styles and Tazz is cut out after that announcement, the same three figures we have seen over the last couple of weeks seen hidden behind a bloody camera. All three approach close to the lens, the person in front writing 'VERY SOON' in the blood. The feed then cuts back inside of the Hammerstein Ballroom.
(3) Extreme Elimination Chamber Qualifier: Justin Credible (w/Francine) defeats CW Anderson
The two ECW veterans have a competitive, technical contest to begin things but very quickly things turn in favor of Credible, whom ends up taking total control. After tripping Anderson in to the turnbuckles, he hits That's Incredible and covers for the victory. Francine joins him in the ring afterward, microphone in hand as Credible says that he saw Sabu qualify for the Elimination Chamber earlier and he'll be sure to target him on his way to becoming the ECW World Heavyweight Champion. "And that won't be just the coolest, won't be just the best, but will be Justin Credible!" He slams the microphone down and leaves the ring with Francine.
Crazy and Psicosis Demand a Rematch with The Pitbulls
Seen talking with Rob Van Dam backstage is Paul Heyman when the two have their conversation interrupted by the arrival of Super Crazy and Psicosis. Speaking angrily in Spanish, Heyman asks them for English. Crazy says that they want another shot at The Pitbulls next week. Psicosis explains that they need to teach Kid Kash and Jamie Noble a lesson. "You know, Rob Van Dam and myself were just talking about how he can't wait until Summerslam to get his hands on Rhyno. So, I have a solution for the three of you. Next week it will be a six man tag team match as it will be Rhyno and The Pitbulls versus Rob Van Dam, Super Crazy and Psicosis." All three men seem pleased with the decision, RVD telling the other two he's looking forward to it.
(4) Non-Title Match: ECW World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle defeats Tommy Dreamer
Looking even more fired up than he did in their initial match up on the inaugural ECW on Sci Fi, perhaps fueled by Angle's turning on the brand and disrespect for it, Dreamer pulls out all the hardcore stops against 'The Wrestling Machine'. Angle goes for an Ankle Lock after taking Dreamer down in avoidance of a shot to the head with a chair but Dreamer is able to roll through, get back to his feet and hit Angle with the chair! After putting Angle in the tree of woe and delivering a dropkick in to him with the can, Dreamer gets to his feet looking fired up with the Manhattan crowd loud for him. Tommy attempts the Dreamer DDT but Angle pushes free of it, hitting a big belly-to-belly suplex. Both men get back up and Dreamer walks right in to a shot to the face via the steel chair! Angle stands over him and waits as Dreamer slowly pulls himself back up to a knee, bleeding from his forehead. "I love Tommy Dreamer to death but sometimes I wish he would just stay down!" Says Styles. Angle hits another ruthless chair shot to the head and then proceeds to apply the Ankle Lock! Dreamer struggles for a long time in the hold, hanging on as long as he can but eventually having no choice but to submit.
Angle gets back up and demands his ECW World Heavyweight Championship from the referee. He then also demands a microphone from ringside and steps back to the center of the ring with it, looking out to the fans and saying that this is one of the worst crowds he has ever performed in front of. "People praise the Hammerstein Ballroom but I say it sucks!" Drawing the heaviest boos of the night, Angle keeps going on. "You people make me absolutely sick! You people have no appreciation for the best wrestler in the world today! You people are the reason why I spit in ECW's face proudly while I wear your precious championship around my waist every week just to rub it in!" Continuing to egg the crowd on, the boos and jeers eventually turn in to cheers as Dreamer comes up from behind and levels Angle in the back with a singapore cane! He continues to strike down repeatedly before picking up the ECW Title from the mat, waiting for Angle to get back up before clocking him in the head with it! With Angle rolling out of the ring, Dreamer hobbles to the ropes and looks down at the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. "Tommy may have come up short in the match," Tazz says. "But we could be looking at the next ECW champ if he shows that aggression he just showed come Summerslam!" Dreamer holds the championship over his head to cheers from the crowd while Angle looks on from the outside angrily as ECW on Sci Fi from the Hammerstein Ballroom comes to an end. |

Episode #9 // August 8, 2006 // Gaylord Entertainment Center // Nashville, Tennessee
(1) Rob Van Dam, Super Crazy and Psicosis defeat Rhyno and The Pitbulls
The show kicks off immediately with in-ring action, RVD wanting particularly to get his hands on Rhyno but having 'The Man Beast' play games with him by avoiding being involved in the action. After Rhyno does get in without RVD's knowledge, he takes Van Dam out of the ring with a clothesline. Crazy and Psciosis go at it with The Pitbulls as RVD and Rhyno continue to brawl on the outside, fighting through the crowd and toward the back. Inside of the ring, Kash accidentally hits Noble with a dropkick and it allows Crazy and Psicosis to hit him with a sit-out facebuster and moonsault combination that gets Crazy the pinfall for his team.
(2) Balls Mahoney defeats CW Anderson
With each ECW alumni trying to earn their first victory as part of the new ECW on Sci Fi, Anderson and Mahoney have a stiff battle that turns in favor of Mahoney after the two men go to the outside and Balls delivers a huge chair shot to the head. The crowd cheers as he brings Anderson back in to the ring. After a little back and forth, Anderson hits a big shot to the face and bounces off the ropes only to return to the sitout spinebuster called the Ball Breaker of Mahoney, leading to the three count and finally a win for Balls.
Mahoney's Celebration Cut Short
Seen walking backstage just moments after his victory is Balls Mahoney, a smile on his face until the lights in the hallway suddenly go out. After sounds of banging and yells of pain, the lights eventually come back on with Mahoney left laid out on the floor covered in blood! "What the hell just happened?!" Questions Tazz. Seen written on the wall is 'TWO WEEKS' over Mahoney's motionless body.
The ECW World Heavyweight Champion Addresses His Summerslam Challengers
Seen elsewhere backstage is Kurt Angle, the ECW World Heavyweight Champion. "Last week, I proved why the likes of Tommy Dreamer are wash ups. That there is nobody deserving of holding this championship but me." He says that he considers it a great honor and privilege to rub it in the stupid faces of everyone that has ever loved ECW. "So when I have to defend my championship inside of the Extreme Elimination Chamber at Summerslam, it doesn't matter who is in there with me. We already talked about Dreamer... but how about Sabu? Justin Credible? Hell, even The Big Show! None of them have what it takes to beat me!" He says that as for whoever wins the battle royal tonight, that doesn't matter either. "This is what you people have to deal with. And are going to have to deal with for a long, long time..."
(3) The Big Show and Justin Credible (w/Francine) defeat Tommy Dreamer and Sabu
The four challengers already confirmed for the Extreme Elimination Chamber square off in tag team action, Dreamer and Sabu looking to take things to the extreme rather quickly as they bring weapons in to play. After Sabu is hit with a Chokeslam coming off of a springboard, however, it leaves Dreamer to be double-teamed at the hands of Show and Credible. The latter ends up pushing Show aside and hits That's Incredible, covering Dreamer afterward for the three count. 'The Impact Player' hops on to his feet in celebration of the win but after he tries to get Show to join him in celebration, he ends up being grabbed by the throat and hit with a Chokeslam! Show then stands over the bodies of Credible, Dreamer and Sabu as Styles states on commentary that Show may be - no pun intended - the biggest threat inside of the Extreme Elimination Chamber.
(4) Ten Man Battle Royal - Extreme Elimination Chamber Qualifier: CM Punk last eliminates Mike Knox
The first eight men eliminated in order are Big Guido, Al Snow, Tony Mamaluke, Danny Doring, Stevie Richards, Little Guido, Roadkill and The Sandman with Knox getting one over on his rival in Sandman after using Kelly Kelly as a distraction. Knox and Punk go at it for a while with the powerful Knox thinking he has it won after tossing Punk over the top rope only to have him hang on just barely. Knox goes for a running boot but Punk avoids it, Knox getting hung up and blasted with a kick to the back of the head that stuns him and allows Punk to pull him over the ropes and to the floor below! The Nashville crowd cheers loud for Punk as he pulls himself back in to the ring and drops to a knee, perhaps having shocked himself with the victory! "CM Punk is going to Summerslam," Says an excited Styles. "And will compete for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, ladies and gentlemen!" Says Styles. While Knox looks absolutely furious from the outside, Punk celebrates the huge victory as he has earned the final spot in the Extreme Elimination Chamber match! |

Episode #10 // August 15, 2006 // Verizon Center // Washington, D.C.
(1) The Sandman defeats Mike Knox (w/Kelly Kelly)
Diving straight in to action in a rematch from two weeks ago, Sandman doesn't play much in to the games and tricks Knox has put Kelly Kelly up to. After just one distraction, however, things turn in Knox's favor. After he gets a bit too cocky, however, he ends up getting cracked right in the head by a singapore cane! Sandman continues a vicious assault and ignores Kelly's pleas for him to stop, pointing at her with the cane before dropping Knox with the White Russian Legsweep and covering him for the one, two, three. "The Sandman with a big one over Mike Knox tonight!" Says Styles. He celebrates the victory atop the turnbuckles with some beers as Kelly assists her boyfriend out of the ring, checking on him while looking concerned up at The Sandman.
Mahoney Taken Out Again
After Joey Styles and Tazz discuss Summerslam this Sunday, the cameras cut backstage with blood tracks on the floor, Balls Mahoney then seen unconscious against a wall. Written with the blood above Mahoney is the words 'NEXT WEEK'. Medics and backstage officials soon arrive on to the scene, the cameras coming back inside of the arena to Styles and Tazz, whom question what the hell is going on.
Rhyno Sends a Message
The theme music of Rhyno then hits, 'The Man Beast' making his way down to the ring with a microphone in hand. He breaths heavily and looks around the arena before speaking. "This Sunday is Summerslam and I've got a match with Rob Van Dam... 'The Whole F'n' Show', 'Mr. Tuesday Night' or whatever you want to call him doesn't mean a damn thing to me! Because this Sunday after I beat RVD I'm getting what I've deserved since I walked back through those doors two months ago and that is my opportunity for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship." He adds that when ECW closed over five years ago, he left as the final ECW Champion and for RVD to be handed that title was a joke. He says that all Rob earned was the WWE Championship and that but that also means nothing to him. "What meant something to me is when Paul Heyman had the balls to just hand my ECW World Championship over... well, this Sunday, Rob, I'm showing you, I'm showing Paul and I'm showing everyone else who the real champion is. Then whoever the hell walks out of that Extreme Elimination Chamber this Sunday you're going to be met with a Gore! Gore! Gore!"
(2) Rhyno defeats Al Snow
Looking to send a physical message after his verbal one, Rhyno shows no mercy on Snow with a vicious beat down that leads to an easy victory via the Gore. Not stopping there, however, Rhyno continues an attack on Snow after the bell. Rolling out of the ring, he retrieves a steel chair from the timekeeper's area and returns to the ring. As soon as he gets up, however, Rob Van Dam is in the ring to hit him with the Van Daminator! The crowd cheers as Rhyno rolls out of the ring, RVD following after him with a front flip over the top rope on to his rival! "Rhyno sent his message now Rob Van Dam is sending his!" Says Styles. RVD goes to hit Rhyno in the head with the chair near the announce table but 'The Man Beast' is just barely able to avoid it and pull himself over the barricade. As Rhyno stumbles away through the crowd, RVD stands on top of the table and leads the crowd in the chant of his name.
Heyman Makes Announcements for Next Week's ECW on Sci Fi
Seen standing in his office is Paul Heyman, ECW's representative saying that while there is a ton of focus on this Sunday at Summerslam - and rightfully so - he is looking forward to next week's edition of ECW on Sci Fi. "First, we're going to end this rivalry between the teams of Super Crazy and Psicosis and The Pitbulls when they face in a two-out-of-three falls match. Second, the winner of Rob Van Dam and Rhyno will meet face-to-face with the winner of the Extreme Elimination Chamber as we will sign the contract for the next ECW World Heavyweight Championship match." He says that in addition to all of that, it appears we will finally get answers to this mysterious group that has been haunting ECW in recent weeks. "While I advise you to make sure not to miss that exciting episode of ECW on Sci Fi next week, make sure not to miss Summerslam this Sunday when these six superstars meet inside of the Extreme Elimination Chamber..."
The Extreme Elimination Chamber Participants Speak
Transitioning to a video package for the Elimination Chamber match - this Sunday featuring weapons in each pod with a competitor - shown first is The Big Show, whom says that while he 'The World's Largest Athlete', he is also the largest threat to the ECW World Heavyweight Championship and he promises to break everyone in half that stands in his way. Next up is Sabu and he states that his nickname as 'The Homicidal, Genocidal, Suicidal, Death-Defying' Sabu is not for nothing and he will display exactly why he is called that at Summerslam. Next is Justin Credible, 'The Impact Player' saying he has been waiting a long time to regain the ECW World Heavyweight Championship and at Summerslam he is going to extreme limits to capture that title. "And it won't just be the coolest, it won't just be the best... it will be Justin Credible." Next is CM Punk, ECW's hottest new star as he states that while he is new to the scene around here, it is perfect for an innovative wrestler like himself to compete in such an innovative match. "The previous four times you have seen the Elimination Chamber it has never been seen like this and I am going to make the absolute most of this opportunity and prove that I not only belong here in ECW but that I deserve to be your ECW World Heavyweight Champion." Next is the man known as 'The Heart and Soul of ECW' Tommy Dreamer as he says it is no secret that there is a burning passion inside of him to hold the ECW Championship for he has never even had the honor of wearing it around his waist. He says that this Sunday presents the perfect chance for him to show the world what ECW and Tommy Dreamer is all about. Last, the champion Kurt Angle is shown and he claims it is very simple: Nobody is in the same class as him when it comes to this business. "Especially not in ECW. As for the Elimination Chamber? I'm the only one of the six men in that match this Sunday to ever step foot in one so I'm not worried a damn bit! Bring whatever you got because it won't be enough to get through 'The Wrestling Machine' Kurt Angle... oh, it's true... it's damn true."
(3) CM Punk, Sabu and Tommy Dreamer defeat ECW World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle, The Big Show and Justin Credible (w/Francine)
Previewing things to come this Sunday, an organized match eventually turns to complete pandemonium as all six men end up in the ring together with no control from the referee whatsoever. The legal man of Punk and Credible eventually end up together, 'The Impact Player' trash talking Sabu after having tossed him in to the ring post. He turns right in to a swooping roundhouse kick from Punk, whom follows that up with the Anaconda Vice! With Dreamer and Sabu fighting against Angle and Show on the outside, Credible has no where to go and is forced to tap out! While the D.C. crowd cheers, the celebration for Punk doesn't last long as Show ends up returning to the ring and plants him with a boot to the face. Sabu ends up coming in to the ring with a chair in hand and throws it right in Show's face, Dreamer coming in to hit his own friend in Sabu with a singapore cane. As all hell is breaking loose, Angle ends up returning to the ring with a steel chair and unloads on everyone around him until Show catches him by the throat and delivers a Chokeslam! He then drags Angle to the outside and near the announce table but Sabu comes running around and tosses a chair in Show's face once again, knocking the big man off of his feet. Sabu then rolls back in to the ring with the chair and sits it down, bouncing off of the ropes and leaping off the chair on to the top rope and then diving off with a leg drop on to Angle through the announce desk! "OH MY GOD!" Exclaims Styles. With all six men strewn about, Styles says that there is more chaos like this to come on Sunday when the ECW World Heavyweight Championship is on the line at Summerslam in an Extreme Elimination Chamber match! With that, he and Tazz sign things off for this week's episode of ECW on Sci Fi. |

WWE Summerslam // August 20, 2006 // TD Banknorth Garden // Boston, Massachusetts
 Number One Contenders Match
Rob Van Dam vs Rhyno
The bell rings and Rhyno runs full speed at Van Dam and gets side-stepped and pushed in to the corner, met with kicks and punches. RVD charges across the ring and bounces off the turnbuckles, coming back to a boot to the face. Rhyno begins to use his power as he slams RVD down a few times and hits some hard punches in between, tossing RVD to the outside and following after him with a kick to the stomach and a toss in to the announce table. Continuing to dominate the match, Rhyno manhandles RVD all around the outside before reaching under the ring and retrieving a table! Looking to take things to the extreme and perhaps bring an end to things early, Rhyno sets the table up against the ring and brings RVD on to the apron, setting him up in position for a piledriver. "We've seen Rhyno do this many of times before in ECW and I could go without seeing it once again!" Says Styles. He attempts to lift RVD up but Van Dam is able to kick his legs enough to pull himself down and fight out of Rhyno's grasp, hitting him with a series of kicks before getting shoved off the apron but somehow managing to land over the table and on to his feet. RVD then steps up and sweeps Rhyno's legs out from underneath him and it causes 'The Man Beast' to fall on to the table. The crowd cheers as RVD pulls himself back on to the apron and heads to the top rope, diving off with a Five Star Frog Splash on to Rhyno and through the table! "Oh My God!" Shouts Styles. Both men remain down for a lengthy amount of time, the referee checking on both of them with Van Dam eventually pulling himself back up in a bit of a daze. He then drags Rhyno back up and tosses him in to the ring before heading to the top rope, leaping off with a side kick that results in a near fall after. Van Dam stays on the attack following that and after a bit of a back-and-forth exchange between the two, RVD sweeps the legs out from under Rhyno and goes for the Rolling Thunder only for the knees of Rhyno to be put up in to the back. RVD arches up in pain and rolls to the corner, Rhyno staggering back to his feet and stomping away at RVD before exiting the ring again. This time, he brings a steel chair back and slams it across the back of his opponent. "WHO'S THE MAN?!" He yells to boos, going to drop the chair in to the spine once again but having RVD avoid it. Rhyno tries to follow in to the corner but ends up missing, Van Dam coming at him with quick strikes. He then picks the chair up and hits the Van Daminator, rocking Rhyno backwards and in to the corner. RVD then hits him with a running dropkick with the chair and it causes Rhyno to fall in to a seated position, prompting Van Dam to get back up and look around to the Boston crowd as he knows the opportunity he has. "Are we going to get the Van Terminator?" Asks Tazz as RVD goes to the top rope. Van Dam stands up straight and leads the chant of his name before diving across the ring only to have Rhyno move out of the way! With RVD laid out, Rhyno crawls to the other side of the ring and gets back up against the opposing turnbuckles, waiting for Van Dam to rise before running through him with a Gore! Both legs are then hooked for the one, two, three.
Rhyno defeats Rob Van Dam via pinfall.
The audience continues to boo as Rhyno pushes himself back to his feet, towering over Van Dam's body while having his arm raised as the winner. "Rhyno is going to get what he wanted," Tazz says. "He's got a shot at the ECW World Heavyweight Championship that he never lost!" Rhyno steps over Van Dam's body and exits the ring, heading toward the back with his fists raised above his head and a scowl across his face.
Heyman Introduces the Extreme Elimination Chamber
The Elimination Chamber structure begins it's descent from above the ring, the cameras coming over to Joey Styles and Tazz at ringside as the two of them discuss how we are moments away from deciding the ECW World Heavyweight Champion inside of this Extreme Elimination Chamber. After the chamber has finished it's decent, out from the back comes Paul Heyman and he ends up entering the structure with a microphone in his hand. "Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman and I represent the ECW brand and I take full responsibility for the carnage you are about to witness." He says that the WWE has seen the Elimination Chamber before and explains the details behind it and what it consists of and says that tonight it has an ECW twist to it. "See, you know how the match works with a new competitor entering from one of these pods every five minutes. But, in this Extreme Elimination Chamber variation, each competitor that enters will be possessing a new weapon to introduce in to the match. The same rule applies, however, as the last man standing after the other five participants are eliminated will walk out of Summerslam as the ECW World Heavyweight Champion." Heyman then exits the chamber as the match is about to begin.
Extreme Elimination Chamber Match for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship
Kurt Angle(c) vs The Big Show vs Tommy Dreamer vs Justin Credible vs Sabu vs CM Punk
Starting the match off is Angle and Punk as the veteran and the newcomer tangle it up with Punk surprising the champion by getting the upper hand on the mat. Angle is forced to regroup and he paces back and forth against the ropes before coming at Punk again and this time taking him down chest first to the mat, the ruthless amateur style of Angle showing through as he dominates while staying on the back of Punk. After a stiff club to the face, he drags Punk back to his feet and whips him in to the corner, following and eating a boot to the face. Punk then runs at Angle but is caught with a knee to the stomach that flips him to the mat, Angle applying a chin lock as he once again keeps Punk grounded. Getting some early motivation from the audience, Punk fights his way back on to his feet and elbows his way out of Angle's grasp before unleashing on him with kicks, punches, forearms and elbows. After a big enzugiri to reverse Angle's attempt at going for the leg, Punk scrambles to make a cover but only gets a short count of two. Turning the tables on the champion, Punk keeps Angle grounded now and throws knees to the body and stretches the neck and back. Pulling Angle back up, Punk shoves him in to the corner and goes for a running knee only to be caught by the back of the leg and arm and be tossed over the top rope and on to the steel floor of the chamber below! Angle drops to a knee to catch his breath but soon follows out after Punk in order to toss him in to the chamber wall and then nail a belly-to-belly suplex over the top rope and back inside of the ring. The count down then begins on the titantron, the clock reaching zero and a flickering spotlight comes over the pods, eventually landing on the one containing Justin Credible. 'The Impact Player' is released from his chamber and he comes out with a singapore cane in hand, which he uses immediately on Angle with a shot to the back and then the head. Credible then hits the ring and smacks Punk as hard as he can in the stomach, then across the back. Holding the cane above his head, Credible talks himself up and it draws boos from the crowd. He doesn't appreciate it and proceeds to put the cane in front of Punk's throat and choke him with it. "CM Punk made Justin Credible submit just this past Tuesday on ECW on Sci Fi," Styles points out. "And you know Credible hasn't forgotten about that!" Punk struggles in the hold but Angle comes in from behind and gets a little bit of revenge on Credible by hooking hold of the waist, ripping him free from Punk and hitting a German suplex across the ring. Angle pulls Credible up in the corner and unloads with hard strikes and a headbutt that drops Credible to the mat, prompting him to pull himself through the ropes and outside of the ring itself. As Angle stares him down, Punk comes up from behind and attempts a roll up to put the champion away but only gets a count of two. Both men get back up and Punk attempts a backslide for another near fall, another roll up attempt being kicked out of with Angle getting back up and delivering a brutal clothesline that flattens Punk.
Angle drags himself back up via the ropes and after a few stomps to Punk's downed body, he drags him up and hits a uppercut that sends him in to the corner. After a series of shoulders to the mid-section, Angle looks for a belly-to-belly toss but Punk holds on to the ropes and keeps himself grounded, throwing some elbows to the side of the head in order to break free. He then hops on to the second rope but Angle shoves him in the chest and drops him over the ropes and on to the steel. Credible runs up from behind on Angle and splashes him in to the corner before hitting a tornado DDT that leads to a close two count. The count down shortly thereafter begins with the spotlight coming down once again, flashing over each pod before eventually stopping and landing on Tommy Dreamer's. With a trash can in his hand, he drags it out behind him and empties out street signs and a crutch from it in to the ring, using the can itself first as he drives it in to the head of Credible. He then picks up a sign and whacks Angle over the top of the head, going for the crutch next and missing on a wild shot to Credible but able to hit him in the stomach after and follow that up with a DDT right on to the trash can. Dreamer gets back up and throws his arms out with a yell, all fired up but he ends up turning in to a springboard clothesline from Punk! He hooks the leg of Dreamer but gets just a short two count. Punk is dragged to his feet by his hair by Angle and get tossed to the outside and followed, the champion looking to punish the newcomer and throw him in to the chamber wall only for Punk to reverse it and send Angle in to it. He then throws the champion in to one of the empty pods before returning to the ring and in to a boot to the face from Credible, whom in turn gets hit with a kick to the stomach and in position for a DDT from Dreamer, Justin pulling himself free and delivering a low blow. A twisted grin across his face, he then hits Dreamer with That's Incredible! "Good night and good bye Tommy Dreamer!" Says Styles. Dreamer, however, finds a way to get his shoulder up just in time! Credible can't believe it as he mounts over Dreamer and pummels him with punches to the face until he feels satisfied with it. He grabs the singapore cane he brought in to the match and stands back over Dreamer, holding it high above his head only for Punk to take it from behind and blast him with a shot to the head on the turnaround.
Punk drops to a knee and all four men are looking to gather themselves as the countdown begins once again, the second to last entrant in to the match being The Big Show. Bringing a table along with him, Show enters the match and tosses the table in to the ring, stepping over the ropes as the other four competitors already in the match stand together on the opposing side of the ring. Punk and Angle each grab a street sign while Credible takes the singapore cane and Dreamer the crutch, Show yells for them to come on and all four charge at him and begin to unleash with the weapons. Show withstands a ton of damage and eventually ends up shoving everyone off of him, dropping to a knee from the effects of the attack, however. Punk charges at him and is caught by the throat and hurled to the outside. Credible comes running up and is planted with a big boot. Dreamer tries to get some punches in but Show takes him by the throat and delivers a Chokeslam. Angle then runs up from behind and tries to hoist Show off of the mat for the Angle Slam but to no avail as Show doesn't even come off of the mat. He takes the champion by the neck and headbutts him before following Punk to the outside, taking him up by the hair and pushing him in to the chamber wall by the throat. Then, with a big yell, Show hurls Punk through a chamber pod! "OH MY GOD!" Styles yells out. Show has a big smile across his face as Punk is completely motionless. Show returns to the ring and Credible comes charging at him with the crutch but Show grabs hold of it and breaks it over his knee! He takes Credible by the throat but Dreamer comes back in with a street sign and hits Show in the back of the head. 'The World's Largest Athlete' then grabs both men by the throat and they hit him with a kick each to a knee. Dreamer and Credible then bounce off the ropes and come back with a double clothesline that actually knocks Show off of his feet. The two look to each other and give a nod, turning their backs each to one another as Credible grabs another street sign and Dreamer the cane, the two then turning to Show again only for Dreamer to hit Credible with a shot to the back of the head with the cane! Angle returns to the ring from behind and he hits Dreamer with the Angle Slam, unable to go for the pin though as Dreamer rolls under the bottom rope and Show delivers a clothesline to the champion. The last count down then begins and, of course, the last entrant in to the match is Sabu and he has a steel chair in his hand. With Punk trying to stir a bit in the pod he was tossed through, Sabu runs in and hits a dropkick with the chair to put him back down. He then goes in to the ring and has the chair slapped out of his hands by Show but he hits a low dropkick, picks it back up and throws it in to the face of Show. Angle aims for a German suplex but Sabu slips free and hits him in the stomach with the chair, then the back. Credible staggers back up and has the chair thrown in to his face, Show catching him on the turnaround with a Chokeslam. He makes the cover and gets the three count for the first elimination of the match. Justin Credible is eliminated.
The action continues to be fast paced after the first elimination of the match as Angle plows through Sabu from behind and clubs away at Show before returning his attention to Sabu and hitting him with a belly-to-belly suplex across the ring. The champion goes after Dreamer on the outside again and ends up getting hit with a sudden DDT on to the steel floor! Dreamer slowly gets back up and pushes Angle back in to the ring, stepping through the ropes and avoiding Show running at him and letting him slam in to the corner. Dreamer then grabs the table show brought in and begins to set it up in the center of the ring, turning Show around and punching him in the head over and over. Show pushes him away but Sabu comes running in from the side and he crushes Show with a chair shot to the face that causes the big man to fall over the top rope. Dreamer and Sabu smile to one another but the latter ends up taking a shot with the chair to the gut. He slams it across the back and Dreamer falls face first across the table in pain, Sabu proceeding to pull himself on to the top rope and dive off with the Arabian Skullcrusher through the table! The crowd cheers as Sabu drapes his arm over Dreamer's chest and gets the pinfall. Tommy Dreamer is eliminated. Angle gets himself back to his feet and drags Sabu out of the rubble of Dreamer and the table, hitting a series of uppercuts before going for another belly-to-belly with Sabu pulling himself free and landing at Angle's side, flying at the Olympic Gold Medalist with forearms to the face. After a DDT, Sabu retrieves his steel chair and stands it in front of Angle, running off the ropes and leaping off the chair and on to the ropes, going for his signature moonsault only for Angle to catch him by the leg and get back up with the Ankle Lock applied! Angle wrenches away back and forth but Sabu is able to get his arms under his chest and use all of his upper body strength to roll through and send Angle in to the turnbuckles. Sabu then goes for a backslide but Angle kicks out, getting back up and ducking under the arm before lifting Sabu up off of the mat and hitting the Angle Slam. The far leg is hooked and the pinfall is made. Sabu is eliminated. Angle gets back up with the ropes and holds his fists over his head, proud of the elimination as he decides to trash talk the crowd. He helps push Sabu from the ring by kicking him, arms held out with a smile but backing in to Show standing behind him. Angle turns slowly and puts his hands up, pleading with Show but instead is taken by the throat and tossed in to the corner, Show stepping up and delivering a big smack to the chest. Angle drops on all fours and Show brings him back up quickly, lifting Angle over his head and stepping toward the ropes. The ECW World Heavyweight Champion is able to pull himself down and stumbles backward, Show charging at him and being tripped in to the ropes and then hit with a knee to the face by a returning to the match Punk!
Show falls back in to the ring and slowly gets himself back to his feet, Angle with a chair shot to the back that Punk follows with a cane strike to the head. Angle then uses all of his strength to get Show up off of the mat and put him down with the Angle Slam! Punk follows up by sliding down to the mat and applying the Anaconda Vice! Show's eyes widen as he tries to force himself out of Punk's grasp but struggles to do so. Attempting to use his power to get back up, Punk responds with strikes to the face before re-applying the hold. Show yells out in pain while Angle stands back, yelling for him to tap. Show refuses to, however, but still can't get out of Punk's grip. Slowly, Show's arms stop moving and his eyes begin to close. The referee steps in and checks on him, raising the arm twice and having it drop before taking some extra time on the third one. Show's arm drops once more and the official shouts to ringside that Show is unconscious! The Big Show is eliminated. Punk releases the hold and rolls on to all fours. "CM Punk just choked out 'The World's Largest Athlete', man! Wow!" Says an impressed Tazz. As soon as Punk gets back on to his feet, however, Angle charges in to him and slams him in to the corner, unleashing with shoulders to the stomach and hard strikes to the face. After a slap across the face, Angle laughs at Punk but ends up getting caught by the arm and dropped to the mat with a uranage that Punk looks to transition in to the Anaconda Vice! Angle does his best to keep his arm free, however, and a struggle ensues between the two men with Angle making it on to a knee. Punk continues to work at the arm but Angle uses his free one to deliver a low blow! The TD Banknorth Garden boos as Angle slowly gets back to his feet, holding on to Punk by his hair with a smile as he proceeds to deliver the Angle Slam. With that same smile over his face, Angle takes his time to hook both legs only to be stunned as Punk kicks out just before the referee's hand can hit the mat a third time! The champion can't believe it and he argues over the count. Furious, he gets back to his feet and pulls the straps of his singlet down, marching around the ring before picking Punk's leg up and applying the Ankle Lock. "Tap the hell out!" Angle shouts as Punk tries to reach for any way out of the hold, Angle dropping down to the mat as soon as Punk starts getting near the ropes. Angle wraps his legs around Punk's and the look of despair on the face of the straight-edge superstar says it all as he pulls at his hair and slams his fist in to the mat. He, however, refuses to tap out. Angle finally gets fed up and lets go of the hold, getting back to his feet with his hands on his hips. "You don't want to tap out, huh?!" He asks before walking across the ring and picking up the steel chair. He looks up and down at it while walking back over to Punk and proceeds to swing it down across the ankle over and over again! After about ten shots, Angle tosses the chair over the ropes and grabs Punk's leg once again, taking his time before re-applying the Ankle Lock and dropping to the mat once again. Punk tries to hold on some more but the pain is too much now and he is forced to submit.
Kurt Angle last eliminates CM Punk to retain the ECW World Heavyweight Championship.
Angle gets back to his feet and smiles at the boos of the crowd. The referee retrieves the ECW World Heavyweight Championship and brings it in to Angle, whom stands over Punk and mouths off to him some before holding the belt over his head in celebration. "You have to give it up to CM Punk," Says Tazz. "But he had to tap out! His career just started!" While Styles says Angle may be just trying to keep his going at any means necessary, the champion makes his way up the stage and holds the belt up high with a victorious yell.

Episode #11 // August 22, 2006 // Mohegan Sun at Casey Plaza // Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania
Angle Celebrates, Meets His Next Challenger
Following a highlight video of this past Sunday at Summerslam where Rhyno became the new number one contender for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship and Kurt Angle retained the belt in the Extreme Elimination Chamber, the opening ECW video airs. Following that, the show begins with the arrival of the champion, Kurt Angle, and he makes sure to rub it in the face of the crowd as he comes down to the ring with a smile on his face. He steps through the ropes with a microphone in his hand and asks the audience if they're disappointed. "Good!" He shouts back after a response of boos. "I told every single one of you that I would walk in to that Extreme Elimination Chamber as the ECW World Heavyweight Champion and walk back out the ECW World Heavyweight Champion and I did just that. I didn't want to be a part of this ridiculous, unfair match but I did it anyway and I beat all five of my opponents." He says that he went thoroughly through his opponents before and explained how they didn't stack up to him and he's going to take it one further. "There is nobody that can stop me. Nobody in the WWE, nobody in the rest of the world and damn sure nobody in ECW!"
Before Angle can say anything else, Rhyno's music hits. 'The Man Beast' and new number one contender arrives from the back and hits the ring, standing nose-to-nose with Angle. "I told Rob Van Dam and I told Paul Heyman the same thing I'm going to tell you... that ECW World Heavyweight Championship belongs to me!" Angle asks what makes him think that, to which Rhyno says that he never lost that title when ECW closed. "And if it weren't for me, Angle, you would have never be holding that championship... now that RVD is out of my way, you're the next one in for a Gore... Gore... Gore!" Angle looks up and down at Rhyno and says that when they end up facing each other, Rhyno is going to be severely disappointed when he has his ankle snapped and is forced to tap out. Angle brushes shoulders with Rhyno and prepares to leave the ring only to have his arm grabbed and be pulled back in for a clothesline! Rhyno then gets up in the corner and waves his hand up and down, waiting for Angle to rise before charging at him for the Gore only to have the champion dive out of the way and roll out of the ring, eyes wide as he backs away from the ring. Rhyno gets back on to his feet and picks the ECW World Heavyweight Championship belt up from off of the mat, raising it up over his head.
RVD Confronts Rhyno, Meets Punk
Seen coming through the back after a break is Rhyno when he is stopped in his tracks by Rob Van Dam. "Hey, I'm not here to cause any trouble," Van Dam says with his hands up. "You beat me fair and square this past Sunday at Summerslam. All I have to say to you is that I hope you're in this for the right reason." Rhyno says that the situation with himself and RVD was much different than the one with himself and Angle. "You were the wrong guy at the wrong time, Rob. But that's history now. I'm going to beat Kurt Angle and become the ECW World Heavyweight Champion for me and for the sake of ECW itself." RVD nods and Rhyno continues on his way, Van Dam preparing to walk off only to stop himself as CM Punk arrives on to the scene. "Hey, Punk. Nice job inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber. Allow me to introduce myself..." RVD goes to say his name but Punk stops him, saying everybody knows who he is and thanks him for the congrats, although pointing out he came up short of the ultimate goal. RVD says he's come up short many times in his career but if he knows anything at all, Punk has a big future ahead of him. "As a matter of fact, Punk. How about you and I tangle it up in the ring right here tonight?" RVD says they're both coming off of tough losses and something will have to give. Punk says he's still banged up but he isn't going to back down from a challenge from an ECW legend like RVD. "I'll see you out there." Punk says before heading off, RVD with a big smile on his face.
(1) 2-out-of-3 Falls Match: Super Crazy and Psicosis defeat The Pitbulls 2-1
Looking to settle the score finally, the two teams have a fast-paced back-and-forth match, The Pitbulls scoring the first fall with Noble using the ropes as leverage on a roll up to Psicosis, Crazy with the second fall after a moonsault on Noble. With The Pitbulls looking to end the match with another cheap victory, Crazy catches Kash on the ropes and pushes him off just in time. After Noble is tripped in to the steel steps, Kash is left to try and fend off Crazy and Psicosis on his own. After a missed superkick to Psicosis, he his planted with a sit-out facebuster which in turn allows Crazy to his a big moonsault from off the top rope and get the pinfall.
Mahoney Calls Out His Attackers
Seen standing in the ring after the break is Balls Mahoney, a microphone in his hand as he says that he understands that ECW is 'the land of the extreme' and he is all for a little bit of craziness. "But being jumped from behind in the dark... and not knowing who the hell is doing it?! I don't like that. So, whoever did that to me... I want to see your faces right now!" After waiting in the ring for a bit, some familiar gothic music plays and from the back emerges Gangrel. "Gangrel?!" Asks Styles. "What the hell is he doing here?!" Following Gangrel out is a man and a woman, both very dark, gothic and vampire looking to compliment Gangrel. The trio then make their way down to the ring together and after Gangrel spits blood above him, he enters the ring with the two at his side and a microphone in his hand. He looks up and down at Mahoney and introduces himself and the others with him: Kevin Thorn and Ariel. "And you're probably wondering why we came after you..." Gangrel says with a twisted grin, Mahoney going to respond but suddenly being blasted with a boot to the face by Thorn! The boos come down from the crowd as Gangrel and Thorn put the boots to Mahoney, eventually tossing him to the outside and following after him in order to hold him against the ring apron, tying his arms up to the bottom rope. Mahoney kicks at the two as they back down, Ariel emerging above him in the ring with a bucket in her hand. With a sinister smirk, she proceeds to pour the bucket over the head of Mahoney - drenching him in what appears to be blood! Mahoney spits out what gets in to his mouth and continues to struggle in the ropes. Gangrel, Thorn and Ariel then proceed to leave together as backstage officials come to Mahoney's assistance.
(2) Sabu defeats Stevie Richards
After proclaiming prior to the match that he wasn't going to lose another match ever again, Richards is stuck facing 'The Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal, Death-Defying' Sabu and Sabu is clearly unhappy after losing in the Extreme Elimination Chamber on Sunday as he comes out using chairs wildly. Richards attempts to use one back but ends up getting hit with one to the face and then the Arabian Facecrusher for the pinfall. Sabu doesn't have much time to celebrate, however, as Justin Credible ends up coming in to the ring from behind and delivers a shot to Sabu's head with a chair of his own. Credible stands over Sabu and yells at him, questioning if he thinks he is better than him. "You're not! YOU'RE NOTHING!" He hits Sabu a few more times before leaving the ring, having sent a message to his fellow ECW original and recent rival.
Heyman, Dreamer, Rhyno Meet Up
Seen talking backstage is Paul Heyman and Tommy Dreamer in the prior's office when in to the room walks the new number one contender for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship, Rhyno. Dreamer tries to step up to Rhyno but Heyman holds him back, approaching Rhyno himself and asking what he wants. "I just wanted to say that despite our recent differences, Paul... I'd like to put them aside in my quest to regain respect to the ECW brand the ECW World Heavyweight Championship." Dreamer seems hesitant and questions Rhyno's motives but Rhyno is quick to point at him and say he is lucky that he wasn't put in the crossfire after he was given that number one contender's match against Angle in the first place. Heyman says that's enough and says that he hopes Rhyno is sincere, but it also sounds to him like he and Dreamer have some tension between them. "So next week here on ECW, we're going to have Rhyno versus Tommy Dreamer." The two stare one another down with Rhyno saying that he's looking forward to it.
Knox Challenges The Sandman
Back inside of the Mohegan Sun at Casey Plaza, Mike Knox and Kelly Kelly stand in the ring together with Knox holding a microphone and saying he is sick of dealing with The Sandman and his singapore cane. "He keeps on bringing it in because he knows he can't beat me in a wrestling match... heck, he can't even beat me in a straight up fight!" Knox says that he has the perfect solution for this as he is proposing that next week he and The Sandman have another match against each other and it be a singapore cane on a pole match. "Simple, the first one to get that cane down from the pole can use it. Therefore, Sandman, you can't just whip it out when I'm about to defeat you!" Not that long after, The Sandman's music hits and he makes his way through the crowd, eventually arriving down to the ring and entering with blood on his forehead from crushing a beer can on it. He rips Knox's microphone out of his hand and says that he accepts his challenge. "But since I'm a nice guy, here... have this." He tosses his singapore cane in the air and Knox goes to catch it - allowing Sandman to deliver a low blow kick! The crowd cheers as he takes the cane back, twirls it around and cracks Knox over the head with it! Kelly stands back in the corner looking horrified and concerned, Sandman with a smile to her as he holds a beer out for it. Kelly shakes her head and Sandman tells her to suit herself, proceeding to drink atop the turnbuckles and enjoy some time with the crowd.
(3) CM Punk vs Rob Van Dam Goes to a No Contest
With an excited crowd to see the past versus present of ECW, Punk and RVD have an incredible competitive match with both high flying and technical action. RVD hits the Rolling Thunder and gets a near fall, attempting the Five Star Frog Splash after but having it be reversed in to the Anaconda Vice after Punk puts his knees up! As Punk wrenches away at the hold, however, The Big Show's music hits and out from the back comes 'The World's Largest Athlete'. "What is he doing out here?" Asks Tazz. Show answers that question rather quickly, however, as he enters the ring and drops an elbow on Punk. The referee calls for the bell as Show doesn't stop there as he tosses RVD to the outside, returning his focus on Punk and choking him in the corner. An enraged look in his eyes, Show then hurls Punk across the ring as far and hard as he can. Van Dam attempts to return as he leaps from the top rope but Show ends up catching him by the throat and delivering a Chokeslam! Show goes after Punk once again afterward, wrapping his arm around the neck and applying a Cobra Clutch. He lifts Punk up off of the mat and drops him across his knee, continuing to choke him out. Multiple referees come down to the ring to try and stop Show, but he has no interest in doing so as sweat pours from his head while he breaths heavily. Slowly but surely, Punk ends up passing out and Show finally releases his grip. "The Big Show just choked CM Punk out just like Punk did to him at Summerslam!" Styles says. The Wilkes-Barre crowd boos as Show stands back up over Punk's lifeless body as ECW comes to an end. |

Episode #12 // August 29, 2006 // Sovereign Center // Reading, Pennsylvania
The Big Show Addresses Punk, Summerslam
After the opening ECW video airs, the theme music of The Big Show is heard inside of the Sovereign Center in Reading, Pennsylvania. Joey Styles and Tazz give the welcome to the show from commentary, showing footage from last week as Show makes his way down to the ring where 'The World's Largest Athlete' would ruin the main event between CM Punk and Rob Van Dam, choking Punk out to end the broadcast. Back live, Show stands in the center of the ring with a microphone in his hand and he starts off by saying that what he did last week was completely justified. "Everybody wants to talk about how great CM Punk is! How he's the next biggest thing for ECW! No, see, the next biggest thing for ECW is the biggest man here... me." He says that at Summerslam everybody was jumping for joy when CM Punk eliminated him but he wants to remind the people that he was beaten down and worn out in that Extreme Elimination Chamber. "Punk picked up the scraps. Punk reaped the benefits of what everybody else did... he's a nobody... he's nothing... I am ECW's future - not him!" The crowd boos Show loudly as he continues to bark at them about all of his accomplishments and how he plans on becoming the ECW World Heavyweight Champion as well whether they like it or not.
Interrupting Show to the delight of the audience is CM Punk himself, looking very serious as he slowly heads down to the ring. He gets on to the apron and Show asks if he thinks it'd be smart to step through the ropes after what happened to him last week. Punk shows no fear, however, as he steps right in and stares across at Show. "I'm not afraid of you, Show. Hell, I'm not afraid of anything. I'm determined... I'm patient... and most importantly I am confident in myself." He states that he never claimed to be the future of ECW but he doesn't deny that being his ultimate goal and he isn't going to let people like Show stand in his way just because of who they are. "You beat me in our first match together, Show. But at Summerslam I made you pass out to my Anaconda Vice... and if you think that was a fluke I beg you to give me the chance to do it again!" Show takes a few steps toward Punk and looks up and down at him, saying he has a lot of guts and not a lot of brains. "You want another ass kicking? You've got it. Next week." Show then leaves the ring as a big rematch has been scheduled for next Tuesday.
(1) Singapore Cane on a Pole Match: Mike Knox (w/Kelly Kelly) defeats The Sandman
A hard-hitting fight that is on the ins and outs of the ring with each man taking their shots at getting the cane off the pole. After Sandman knocks Knox off the top rope and on to the apron, he begins to climb for the cane but he suddenly ends up being pushed down. "Who the? What the?" Asks Styles. He then identifies it to be Test on the apron, prompting confusion from commentary and the crowd. Test steps over the ropes and Knox slowly returns to the ring, the two giving a nod to each other before Test unleashes a boot to the face of Sandman! Knox proceeds to retrieve the singapore cane and Test drags Sandman back up, allowing Knox to unleash a big shot to the face with the cane. After a ruthless beat down with the cane, Knox makes a cover and gets the pinfall. The crowd boos and even Kelly looks confused on the outside as Test and Knox stand tall together, raising their arms up with big smiles across their faces.
Heyman Confronts Knox and Test
"What the hell is going on here?!" Asks Paul Heyman coming out of the break as he storms through the hallway backstage to confront Mike Knox and Test. Knox pushes Kelly Kelly behind him and introduces Test to Heyman, whom clarifies he knows who Test is but he wants to know what he is doing here. "You know business, Paul," Test replies. "And I had an offer that I just couldn't refuse..." He lets out a snicker and heads off with Knox, Kelly looking worrisome as she trails behind the duo.
Credible Challenges Sabu
Seen standing by is Justin Credible and Francine, the prior saying that he has had his issues with Sabu recently and he thinks that it is time that they put this thing to rest. "So that's why I'm challenging you to a match next week, Sabu, so I can put you away once and for all!" Credible says that it is time to wipe out all of the ECW has-beens because he is the only one remaining that still has what it takes. "Because I'm not just the coolest, I'm not just the best... I'm Justin Credible..." He and Francine each smile and walk off together.
(2) Kevin Thorn (w/Gangrel and Ariel) defeats Al Snow
After making their debut as an alliance last week to take out Balls Mahoney, Thorn gets his in-ring debut and is surprised by the effort of Snow. After a roll up for a two count for the veteran, Thorn runs through him with a big boot. Ariel gets on to the ring apron and Thorn presses his head against hers before turning back to Snow and lifting him up over his head, hanging his feet on to the top rope for what is called The Dark Kiss as he drops Snow's chin in to his shoulder on a drop to the mat. Thorn then hooks both legs for the three count. Gangrel and Ariel slowly enter the ring after the bell, the latter wrapping her arms around Thorn as Gangrel proceeds to pour the cup in his hands over Snow's body, appearing to cover him in blood. "This is just... bizarre..." Says Tazz. Gangrel then gestures his hand out, Ariel and Thorn leaving the ring with him in tow.
RVD and Punk Meet Up
Seen packing his things in the locker room area is CM Punk when he is approached from behind and tapped on the shoulder by Rob Van Dam. "Listen, man, I just wanted to say you did a great job handling yourself out there with The Big Show," Van Dam gives a thumbs up as Punk thanks him. "I hope you kick his ass next week. But, last Tuesday night, you pushed me to the limit but unfortunately... we didn't get a winner." Punk says he was close to getting RVD to tap out, to which 'The Whole F'n Show' tells Punk that's a possibility, but they never did find out. "My point is, when you're done kicking Big Show's ass, come find me and we'll sort things out, alright?" He and Punk shake hands, Van Dam then leaving the room.
Angle Confronts The F.B.I.
Elsewhere backstage, The Full Blooded Italians are seen having an argument when they are approached by the ECW World Heavyweight Champion, Kurt Angle. "Will you all shut the hell up?!" Angle asks, prompting Mamaluke to take a step forward only for Angle to get close and back him up. "Anybody else want to get in my face?" Big Guido comes toward Angle, whom laughs before delivering a headbutt! The F.BI. all huddle around Big Guido as he lays on the floor, Angle with a smile on his face as he continues on his way.
(3) Rhyno defeats Tommy Dreamer
With the ECW World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle on commentary, much to the dismay of Styles and Tazz, he watches on as the two former ECW Originals have a hard-hitting, back-and-forth match. Dreamer ends up going for his signature DDT but Rhyno shoves him away, ducking a clothesline and coming back with a big time Gore! Rhyno makes the cover, hooks the far leg and gets the one, two, three. Rhyno rises back on to his feet and has his arm raised as the winner, standing over Dreamer after celebrating the win briefly. He assists Tommy to his feet and the two shake hands, Dreamer giving his approval of 'The Man Beast' by raising his arm up. After Dreamer exits and heads to the back, Rhyno goes to the top rope to celebrate some more but sneaking in to the ring from behind is Angle, the ECW World Heavyweight Champion catching Rhyno as he comes back down by the waist but being met with elbows to the head. Rhyno pushes Angle back and catches him with a huge shoulder block and a big time clothesline. He then leans in the corner in preparation for the Gore, only for Angle to dive out of the way just in time and roll back under the bottom rope - clutching his title belt close to his chest as he backs away. "Your ass is mine, Angle!" Rhyno yells as the champion backs down. "One of these days, Kurt Angle is going to be hit with that Gore and it's going to feel so good!" Says Styles. As Rhyno returns to celebrating with the audience, Angle continues on his way to the back knowing he was just a second away from being hit with Rhyno's brutal Gore. Styles signs things off from commentary as this week's edition of ECW ends. |
