HeadLocker — Jay Shannon
The (2/10) ECW Extreme Exam for
Our resident philosopher, Jay Shannon, looks at an exciting edition of ECW. One of the most anticipated returns in WWE history kicked off the show. Plus, the final trainee from the legendary Hart Dungeon came to ECW with the love of his life at his side.
ECW started with a look at the issues between Finlay and Jack Swagger. Hornswoggle had scarfed Jack’s ECW title belt. When Jack shoved the diminutive dynamo, his dad, Finlay, snapped. Finlay took the fight to Jack, the following week. Finlay ended Jack’s unbeaten streak, thanks to help from Hornswoggle and an over-sized shillelagh.
Jack Swagger strolled out to the ring. Jack did his little bounce thing, which caused him to drop the championship belt from his waist. Jack was missing his Lance Von Erich-like grin. Jack started to speak but the crowd booed him. Jack whined about being victimized and embarrassed. Jack started to go off on Teddy Long about having to face Finlay at No Way Out. Jack felt it was unfair that he had to fight Finlay. Jack said he would take out Finlay and the “real problem”. Jack called out Hornswoggle. Instead of the midget, Jack got one heck of a surprise…Christian!
