Mr. E...C...WPaul Heyman and Rob Van Dam are backstage in RVD's locker room. Heyman and Van Dam talk about how Van Dam will be the next ECW Heavyweight Champion. Van Dam says Lashley does not have a hope in hell of winning tonight.
ECW World Heavyweight ChampionshipRob Van Dam vs. Bobby Lashley (C)Bobby Lashley looked terrible during this match, basically not selling much, and recieved alot of abuse from the fans. Van Dam carried the match, and put on a great performance. Both wrestlers shared the offence, but towards the end of the match, Lashley took a slight upper hand. Rob Van Dam turned it around once again however, hitting a five star frogsplash, which Lashley shockingly kicked out of. The end was suprising however, when Van Dam distracted the referee, allowing Paul Heyman to nail Lashley over the back of the head with an iron bar. Van Dam followed up with another five star frog splash for the win.
After the match, Rob Van Dam shook hands with Paul Heyman, and celebrated as the new ECW Heavyweight champion. (17:54)
