Tha A List Analysis

Christian's back. Lukewarm pop, shitty music, but hypeness, Christian is BACK! I think Christian's return on ECW makes sense. If WWE wants to use him as a main eventer, they can easily throw the ECW strap on him in a month or two, then slide him over to another show and push him there, a la CM Punk. Or, if they decide they still don't see him as a main eventer-hell, he's on ECW.

Christian called out the winner of this Sunday's Jack Thwagger vs. Finlay match. With Christian getting as lukewarm of a reception as he did, I don't know how much heat Swagger can generate feuding with him, which actually may be a good thing, because it'll be a great test of how over he is.

Miz and Morrison are really great at what they do. Yeah, I know, not groundbreaking news, but if you want breaking news, check out Donnie's article "Who's In, Who's Out" once you finish reading this. Or, check it out now, I don't give a shit, I get paid the same either way.

TJ Wilson is finally on TV as Tyson Kidd. Took long enough; an impressive debut for Kidd nonetheless. Nice to see that they're seemingly putting him in a feud instead of letting him flounder. The same can be said for Jamie Noble. I am a mark for Bao Nguyen, though; watching that guy's hair fly around as he got beat up was very entertaining me.

Christian faced Thwagger in the main event, with The All-American American Lisp eating the pin for the second time in two weeks. Seems like kind of a waste to put over him as being undefeated for so long just to have him eat the pin in two straight meaningless matches. Then again, he's the ECW Champion, so I think not having the undefeated gimmick won't hurt him any.

On a closing note, I know he gets put over in these articles a lot, but Matt Striker is so good at what he does, and he really makes ECW better through his commentary. From his insight to the way he makes the emotion apparent in a match to his one-liners, he's the balls as a color commentator. Tazz, take notes.

Tha Results:
*The Miz def. Tommy Dreamer
*Tyson Kidd def. Bao Nguyen
*Christian def. Jack Swagger

I marked out like a little kid last night. My pop for Christian made up for everyone else's, even though it didn't seem that bad. Considering he never really had a face run with the "Captain Charisma" gimmick. For WWE (I can't remember the guy's name) produced music it wasn't that bad.

Whole show was great, can't wait to see Noble and Kidd mix it up. MnM2 are always dope. ECW is the best show goin.
