PHILLY STREET FIGHT

- CM Punk destroys The Sandman in his home town, winning the match with Welcome to Chicago, Mother****er! CM Punk gets on the mic and talks trash to the Philadelphia crowd, who responds in turn by throwing garbage and drinks at him!

FINALS

- In a five-star classic, Sabu defeated Kurt Angle with the TRIPLE JUMP MOONSAULT!!! RVD wasn’t able to interfere as The Big Show laid him out backstage before the match!

Extreme Championship Wrestling
June 27th, 2006 - Philadelphia, PA

Paul E. came out and introduced the ECW Heavyweight Champion of the world… SABU! The lights go out and when they come back on Sabu is pointing to the ceiling with RVD by his side! Rob Van Dam says he had every confidence that his man Sabu would take home the gold against those ECW imposters The Big Show and Kurt Angle! And tonight they’re going to have their chance to prove their worth – in an extreme rules tag match!! Kurt Angle’s music hits and he and The Big Show come out! They tell the ECWers that they’re as extreme as any bastard here and if they have to spill some blood to prove it, SO BE IT!

- Balls Mahoney def. Danny Doring with the NUTCRACKER SUITE. Doring used his agility early to control the much bigger Mahoney, but soon the tide turned and Balls ended it in convincing fashion!

The uncoordinated KELLY comes out on stage wearing next to nothing! She starts shaking it, which revives the downed Doring! Doring saunters over to wear Kelly is, when MIKE KNOX comes out from the back and slams Doring face first into the stage! Doring isn’t seen again as Knox hops up on stage on covers Kelly, taking her to the back against the wishes of everyone in attendance!!

- In a good match, Test defeats Al Snow with the TEST DRIVE!

CM Punk comes out to a chorus of boos, drowning out even Styles and Taz!! A few beers get thrown his way, but they miss the mark. Punk says that The Sandman’s fans should be happy he was sent to a hospital in Philadelphia or else he’d be here tonight to catch another a** kicking!! Punk doesn’t look too great either, though – his head is bandaged and it looks like there is a small bandage on his chest as well. Punk says that he’s here to be the champion, but also to show the ECW fans that they don’t need to be losers and drink and do drugs to be the best! He has the gall to list RVD and The Sandman as people that have blown their opportunity on illegal substances! The crowd is nearing riot as Punk’s music hits and he leaves the ring!

- Mike Knox def. C.W. Anderson lightning quick with a vicious backbreaker! The crowd jeers him the whole time, and he can only respond with ‘Guys, she’s my girlfriend! SHE’S MINE, DAMMIT!’

Backstage CM Punk looks ready to leave the stadium. He has street clothes on and a bag in his hand when THE SANDMAN storms into his locker room and starts destroying him with the Singapore cane!!! Sandman is covered in bandagesand has stitches over his left eye! The Sandman looks into the camera and stands on his foe with one leg, lifting his cane in the other! ‘This isn’t done,’ he manages before limping off!

- Rob Van Dam and Sabu def. Kurt Angle and The Big Show after Sabu hits a legdrop through a table on The Big Show then throws him into the ring where RVD hits the Van Daminator!! With The Big Show out cold, Sabu occupies Angle while RVD gets the pin!

And what will The Big Show have to say about being excluded from the match? Sabu waits in the wings waiting to see which man he'll face the week after on RIOT for the ECW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!

Extreme Championship Wrestling presents:

!!!ECW RIOT!!!

July 4th, 2006

The show starts with Styles and Tazz barely audible over the ‘ECW!’ chants! The crowd is pumped in Amarlillo, Texas for a special 4th of July episode of ECW… the first ECW RIOT! Tazz: “What’s more patriotic than Tommy Dreamer and Balls Mahoney in a BRASS KNUCKLES MATCH?!” Styles: “I can’t think of a damn thing! Except maybe.. an All-American tribute strip from Kelly!!!”

Kelly starts awkwardly shambling around a stage adorned with the red, white, and blue. The crowd chants “Take your clothes off!” but the robotic Kelly is concentrating so hard on trying to be sexy, her stiff, unconvincing smiling face doesn’t even respond. After 5 minutes of this garbage, the camera cuts backstage to Danny Doring walking up to a monitor showing the event in progress. He looks around and then starts watching Kelly gyrate and he starts saying things like “Oh yeah, babe. What I would do to you!” After a moment he hears someone’s throat clear and its MIKE KNOX behind him! Doring pleads for mercy, but Knox grabs a steel chair nearby and DESTROYS Doring with it! Then he walks outside and stops the debacle on stage… at this point people don’t really care. Knox yells “This is my girlfriend, DAMMIT!!!” to which a crowd member replies “Yeah well either teach her to dance, dump her, or shoot her please!” Knox doesn’t seem to hear as he drags his partially naked, hot, and lame girlfriend to the back

‘ALL-AMERICAN’ BRASS KNUCKLES MATCH – Tommy Dreamer vs. Balls Mahoney

Balls Mahoney takes a beating like never seen before… in the week ECW has been back. Seriously though, a vicious beating at the hands of Tommy Dreamer! The two exchange brutal punches with the brass knuckles, until Dreamer gets the advantage, goes outside, and grabs a 2x4 covered in barbed wire from under the ring apron!!! He levels Balls with it, causing a huge gash in Balls’ forehead. Then he uses the DREAMER DRIVER and DREAMER DDT back-to-back!!! “ECW! ECW! ECW!” Dreamer attempts a neckbreaker but Balls somehow turns Dreamer around and delivers the NUTCRACKER SUITE!! Balls wins and Dreamer can’t believe what happened! Physicians rush to the ring to attend to Mahoney while Tommy curses his luck, storming around the ring. Frustrated, Tommy grabs the 2x4 and the doctors scatter! Balls is sitting up, half-conscious and bleeding, but manages a smile before Tommy KOs him with another disgusting shot to the forehead!!!!!!!! Dreamer lifts the 2x4 up to the blood-thristy crowd, then leaves defeated, but not beaten.

winner: Balls Mahoney via pinfall (NUTCRACKER SUITE)

The Big Show is chasing after Paul E. backstage!! Show yells for Paul E to stop, but Paul E is yelling for security! Finally The Big Show corners Paul in a locker room with FBI! Paul E orders Little Guido and Tony Mamaluke to attack, but one look at The Big Show and they walk right out the door! The Big Show wants to know why he’s not in the number one contenders match! After some hesitation, Paul explains that RVD and Sabu thought it would be a better idea if Angle took on Rob tonight! The Big Show grabs him by the collar and lifts hjim up to eye level. He says that if things don’t get changed around soon, Paul isn’t going to have to worry about RVD’s feelings anymore because Paul will be dead!!! Paul E gulps and agrees to add The Big Show into the #1 contenders match tonight!

HOUSE SHOW REMATCH – CM Punk vs. Justin Credible

CM Punk is on fire and annihilates Justin Credible! He stormed to the ring and pounced on Justin before the bell rang. He pounded him, then tossed him to the outside. After a death-defying suicide dive that drove both men into the announcer’s booth, Punk rolled Credible into the ring and choked him out with the ANACONDA VICE. The referee raised Credible’s arm, and three times it fell! The referee goes to raise Punk’s hand, but Punk pushes him down! He grabs a mic and calls out The Sandman!!! The Sandman doesn’t appear! Punk says he must have forgot his balls in that hospital in Philadelphia!! Crowd: “OOOOOOOOOHHH!” The Sandman: “Hey Punk!” He’s standing in the audience!! “Look up!!” Punk looks confused, then looks up to the rafters. All of the sudden, gallons of beers fall down on Punk!!!! He just stands there, soaked, shaking! After a bit he’s thrown a towel. He wipes off, then grabs the mic again. “Hey Sandman…” his voice shakes, and it’s apparent he’s pissed. “Look behind you.” The Sandman turns and gets KOed by a steel chair! The steel chair swinging FREAK, Balls Mahoney!! He’s bloody from his fight with Dreamer, but is out again standing over the out cold Sandman. “You don’t need to do drugs to make friends, Sandman. Meet my friend – Balls Mahoney!” Balls retreats to the back and Punk does too, a smirk on his face.

winner: CM Punk via submission (ANACONDA VICE)

Tazz is backstage with ECW Heavyweight Champion Sabu. Tazz brings up that Paul E may be cushioning things to keep an old school ECW wrestler as champion. A man of few words, Sabu says he doesn’t personally care who the #1 contender is, just as long as they’re prepared to fight for the title on his terms!

ECW TELEVISION TITLE BATTLE ROYALE

Mike Knox, Shannon Moore, Roadkill, Test, Stevie Richards, C.W. Anderson, Tony Mamaluke, Danny Doring (avoiding Mike Knox), and Al Snow (replacing The Sandman, who wasn’t able to make it to the ring) are in the ring when the mystery entrant is announced… HARDCORE LEGEND TERRY FUNK!!! The crowd pops big time as the crazy Texan walks to the ring and the fight is on!!! Well Funk goes out right away, poor guy, as Stevie Richards clocks him with a STEVIE KICK that sends him flying! Funk, upset, gets back in the ring and knocks Stevie back with a punch! Richards tries to hold on, but Funk charges sending both men out of the ring! Funk is up first and the crowd cheers him as he leaves with his fist in the air! Roadkill saves Danny Doring from elimination by shoving Al Snow over the top; C.W. Anderson picks up Tony Mamaluke and hits an ANDERSON SPINEBUSTER over the top rope and out of the ring; Danny Doring tries to save Roadkill from Test, but Test responds with a back body drop and sends out Doring instead; Test then hits the TEST DRIVE on Roadkill and sends him out; Mike Knox beats up Shannon Moore, then tosses him out of the ring like a rag doll; Test nails Anderson with the TEST DRIVE then throws him out; then Mike Knox pushes Test out of the ring!!!

winner and NEW ECW Television Champion: Mike Knox

#1 CONTENDERS TRIPLE THREAT MATCH – Rob Van Dam vs. The Big Show vs. Kurt Angle

The Big Show hurts Angle with the COBRA CLUTCH BACKBREAKER then grabs RVD as he charges and takes him out with the Choke Slam!!! The Big Show covers both men and gets the 1-2-3! Backstage Paul E looks frustrated! Next to him is Sabu, who wrings his hands in anticipation for the war coming next week!!

!!!ECW RIOT!!!

July 11th, 2006 – Phoeniz, AZ

Kurt Angle’s music hits, and Joey Styles and Tazz welcome us to ECW Riot, LIVE from Phoenix, Arizona!! The ECW Heavyweight Championship is on the line tonight as champion Sabu takes on the 7’ 500 lb. #1 contender – THE BIG SHOW! Also CM Punk and Balls Mahoney take on The Sandman and Tommy Dreamer in a big time grudge match!!

KURT ANGLE vs. LITTLE GUIDO

Angle is in full Wrestling Machine mode, tossing Little Guido around the ring until he decides to finish the match with a grapevined ANKLE LOCK! After the match he grabs the microphone and tells everyone watching he’s sick of guys like CM Punk and Terry Funk disrespecting him! He says he’s the greatest wrestler alive today and hasn’t shown anyone disrespect! Terry Funk comes out to a mixed reaction from the hot crowd! Funk tells Angle he’s sorry for the way he acted a couple days ago in Tempe. He says he was just frustrated with himself. He then respectfully requests a rematch next week on Riot! Angle nods and agrees! The two shake hands, and Angle starts out of the ring. Funk pulls out his brass knucks and sucker punches Angle in the back of the head with them!! Funk then puts a camel clutch on Angle, occasionally punching him, opening up a gash in Angle’s forehead!!! Security breaks up the scene… DOUBLE CROSS RANCH, BABY!
When Angle recovers, he is FUMING!

winner: KURT ANGLE via submission (ANKLE LOCK [+5])

Backstage, Balls Mahoney is in his ring gear, sitting back enjoying a tall, cold beer. Life couldn’t be better for the hardcore legend… until CM Punk walks in.

PUNK: You ready for our… what the???

Punk eyeballs the beer with judgment in his eyes.

BALLS: What? What is it?

Punk walks over and slaps the beer off the table it’s on, sending it crashing to the ground!

BALLS: Hey!!

PUNK: You don’t need that to be great, Balls!

BALLS: But I always enjoy a beer before I go out and fight! Takes the edge off!

Punk puts his hands on his waist and shakes his head.

PUNK: Think of how great you’d be if you weren’t out there drunk every night! You may wish to take the edge off, but maybe… you should put the edge on.

BALLS: I know your straight edge and all, but I don’t see why I have to change my life just to fight alongside you!

PUNK: You want to waste your life?! Go ahead! But not on my time, Balls!

Punk storms out of the ring in a huff, slamming the door behind him. Balls slinks back in his chair with a sad “sheesh…”

TEST vs. C.W. ANDERSON

Last week, Test was able to defeat Sabu cleanly in the ring, so a win here would bump him up the rankings big time. Anderson gave a hell of a fight, but Test overpowered him and took him down, winning via countout! Mike Knox comes out and tells Test he has his match next week for the ECW Television Title, but not to get his hopes up! Knox plans on being champ for a long time.

winner: Test via countout

The Big Show is in his locker room, warming up for the big match! Kurt Angle is being led by his room by medical personnel, but Angle takes a few steps back and wishes Show good luck! And that after he wins, they have a match coming! The Big Show agrees and Angle goes back on his way.

GRUDGE MATCH – CM Punk & Balls Mahoney vs. The Sandman & Tommy Dreamer

CM Punk and The Sandman finally meet in the ring in their first official encounter since ONE NIGHT STAND! Punk gets the best of The Sandman early, outwrestling the hardcore veteran. At one point he was able to apply the ANACONDA VICE, and it was sunk in deep! Dreamer comes in for the save, barely making it in time! Balls Mahoney immediately is tagged in and nearly takes The Sandman’s head off with a steel chair! The Sandman is out, but Dreamer again won’t let the pinfall happen! The Sandman revives and rolls to the outside, but Punk climbs a turnbuckle and hits a gorgeous sucide plancha that send both men over the railing!!! Dreamer and Balls go at it in the ring and Dreamer lays him out with the DREAMER DDT! Then he grabs a chair from the outside and hits it again!!!! “ECW! ECW ECW! ECW! ECW! ECW!” Punk and The Sandman brawl outside the ring. The Sandman hits a piledriver, but Punk quickly responds with a neckbreaker over his knee! The two slip back into the ring as the legal men as Dreamer forces Balls to the outside! The Sandman, heavily fatigues, rushes Punk, who takes him down and slips around to apply the ANACONDA VICE! Sandman is out cold immediately and the referee calls the match! Four star match!!! ECW chants the entire time!!

winners: CM Punk and Balls Mahoney (Punk submits The Sandman with the ANACONDA VICE)

Sabu is out with Rob Van Dam! RVD says that this is ECW! And since it’s ECW, Sabu is going to defend his title in a Falls Count Anywhere Match! If The Big Show has a problem with that, he can forfeit his title shot! The Big Show comes out, facing Sabu and RVD in the ring! The Big Show looks at them for a bit, and RVD dares him to attack!! He kicks Sabu in the stomach, then does the same to RVD. He lifts him up by the throat and CHOKE SLAMS RVD TO THE OUTSIDE!!

ECW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH
SABU (champion) vs. THE BIG SHOW (challenger)

This match went all over the arena! Several awesome moments include The Big Show countering a chair-wielding Sabu with a vicious spinebuster to the locker room floor; Sabu using a drop toe hold to send The Big Show face-first into a conrete wall; and Sabu flying from a balcony up to nail The Big Show with the Arabian Facebuster!!!!!!! The two warriors went at it for twenty minutes before RVD decided to get involved and ended up costing Sabu the match!! RVD went to attack The Big Show while they fought in the parking lot, but Show moved just in time for Van Dam to smash Sabu with a steel chair! Big boot to RVD and he was out of the picture. Then, The Big Show lifted Sabu up by the back of the neck and slammed him face-first into a parking lot wall. 1, 2, 3 and we have a new ECW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! THE BIG SHOOOOOOOW!

winner: NEW ECW Heavyweight Champion The Big Show (pinfall)

The Big Show makes his way back to the ring, and Paul E. comes out! Show looks at him warily, but Paul E. shakes his hand…

“Welcome to the family, big man.”

[Knapik]

coming July 18th, from Denver, CO
!!!ECW RIOT!!!

ECW TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
Mike Knox (champion) vs. Test (challenger)

Knox is obsessed with staying champion, and Test is steamrolling up the rankings after wins over Sabu and C.W. Anderson. Knox was very opportunistic in eliminating Test from the championship battle royale, but now he has to face the man face-to-face! The two big men go at it for the ECW Television Championship only on !!!ECW RIOT!!!

GRUDGE MATCH
Sabu vs. Rob Van Dam

The marriage is over, folks! The hardcore icons have beef with one another and they plan to give it their all to get back to the title they both long for! RVD’s blunder against The Big Show last week has Sabu ready to taste some blood!

HARDCORE LUMBERJACK MATCH
Balls Mahoney vs. The Sandman

Enemies by association go at it in an anything goes Lumberjack Match! Will CM Punk be able to round up any lumberjacks for his side with his strict ‘no drinking’ policy? Will The Sandman be in any condition to fight? Will Tommy Dreamer be able to contain himself in the presence of Balls Mahoney?

LAST MAN STANDING MATCH
Kurt Angle vs. Terry Funk

Funk has the fire back, but he may have picked the wrong fight. Angle is the pinnacle of wrestling perfection and just a couple weeks ago schooled Funk in a Last Man Standing Match. With two dastardly attacks from Funk, Angle promises to hold nothing back; while Terry Funk has promised to die before he loses this match! Let’s hope he’s just being dramatic…

PLUS:
The Big Show, FBI, Danny Doring, and more! LIVE JULY 18th!!!

Extreme Championship Wrestling presents:

!!!ECW RIOT!!!

July 18th, 2006 – Denver, CO

Kurt Angle is standing in front of a black and red ECW-logo riddled backdrop. He is in his ring gear and he shifts from one foot to the other, intensely staring to the camera. “Terry Funk, I have nothing but respect for you as a professional wrestler; but a man can only be pushed so far by someone he respects before he is forced to retaliate. You’d say you’d rather DIE than be beaten by me again?! Well I gave a phone call to a funeral home here in Denver, just in case you’re being honest! The odds are you AREN’T, they way you sneak in verbal jabs at me behind my back and sucker punch me like a COWARD!” Angle pulls his straps down! “Well tonight I’m going to make sure this is your last match by crippling you. If you lose this Last Man Standing Match, Terry… I guarantee the end result will be you never being able to stand again. I’m going to snap your withered old ankles like (CENSORED) twigs…”

Slow fade out, then back in as Joey Styles welcomes us to ECW Riot!!! Tazz says he’s speechless! Styles comments about the intensity of Kurt Angle, and how no one has been able to touch him since he joined ECW! That’s the main event for tonight – NO HOLDS BARRED – LAST MAN STANDING – ANGLE VS. FUNK! We’re sold out in Denver, baby!

ECW TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
MIKE KNOX (champion) vs. TEST (challenger)

Kelly joined Knox at ringside. Very back-and-forth, but Knox was able to pull off the victory with the SWINGING REVERSE STO to remain ECW Television Champion! Kelly starts to strip after the match as FBI – Tony Mamaluke and Little Guido Maritato come to ringside to get a better look! Knox is furious, but FBI say “bafongulo!” Knox starts attacking the two, when TEST jumps on Knox and hits the TEST DRIVE! Kelly looks enamored with Test. Arm-in-arm, they head to the back with each other. The FBI join them, laughing at the downed Mike Knox!

winner: MIKE KNOX via pinfall (SWINGING REVERSE STO)

Terry Funk is backstage, wrapping his hands in tape. Mick Foley walks in!!! Funk doesn’t expect him and jump up, putting up his dukes! Foley tells him to ease up, and that he was only here to wish him luck… and perhaps a little insurance? Funk seems intrigued and starts laughing!

Elsewhere, CM Punk stands in front of five men! His partner Balls Mahoney, Shannon Moore, Justin Credible, Roadkill, and C.W. Anderson. He’s standing on a crate, his makeshift soapbox. “Alright, raise your hand if you are drunk right now.” The men look around at each other and Justin Credible raises his hand reluctantly. Punk lowers his head and shakes it in disappointment. “Maybe if you weren’t drunk all the time, you’d win a match?! Get out of my sight!!” Credible leaves as the others laugh at him! Poor Justin Credible, dragging his Singapore Cane behind him! “Anyone else?” No one raises their hand. Roadkill says “I don’t ever drink.” The other looks at him like he’s a suck up, but Punk approves. “Good, you’re in. I like you the best. The rest of you had better be cool and not drink or your off team Punk and Balls.” The men giggle. “Hey CM… I think we need a better name,” says Mahoney. “Okay fine,” replies Punk. “We’re Straight Edge. That means no drinking from now on…. EVER.” C.W. Anderson laughs and walks away! Moore seems drawn to Punk, and sticks around with Balls and Roadkill. “No, let him leave!” says Punk, though no one moved to stop him. “Tonight we score a victory for sobriety and discipline!” Punk is way more excited than anyone else.

ROB VAN DAM vs. SABU

Van Dam dominates and wins with the 5-STAR FROG SPLASH! After the match he puts one foot on the downed Sabu and lets spit fall down onto him!

winner: RVD via pinfall (5-STAR FROG SPLASH [+6])

Mike Knox is holding his head as he spots Danny Doring! Doring starts to run away, but Knox tells him to wait! He says he needs his help, and that if Doring helps him, he won’t ever beat him up again! Doring is all ears now. He takes Doring aside, and the camera can’t pick up what is being said.

Elsewhere Justin Credible walks into a room with The Sandman, Tommy Dreamer, Stevie Richards, and Al Snow! They’re all drinking! The Sandman tosses him a brew! Someone loves Justin Credible!

HARDCORE LUMBERJACK MATCH – BALLS MAHONEY vs. THE SANDMAN

Tommy Dreamer lets Balls know he’s waiting for him! TEAM HARDCORE LIQOUR – Dreamer, Richards, Snow, and Credible; TEAM STRAIGHT EDGE – Punk, Moore, Roadkill… and Danny Doring runs out to help his boy Roadkill out. Roadkill vouches for him. Balls is thrown out almost immediately and Dreamer gets a few shots in before Balls slides into the ring. The Sandman is thrown his Singapore Cane and starts beating Balls, then tosses him out again!! The others help Dreamer lift up Balls, then Dreamer drops him with a DREAMER DDT outside the ring! They roll him back into the ring. He miraculously kicks out when The Sandman pins him! HARDCORE DDT… KICKOUT! He hits him across the face and CM Punk has seen enough! He jumps in the ring and starts choking The Sandman! A wild brawl erupts!!! Dreamer KOs Punk with a soccer kick to the teeth! Balls gets up in the mayhem but is downed with a DREAMER DRIVER! Everyone brawls around them as Dreamer rolls The Sandman on top of Mahoney for the 1-2-3! Insanity continues as security rushes to the scene!

winners: The Sandman via pinfall

The Big Show comes out with the ECW Heavyweight Championship. Paul E. is with him, and announced the first ECW PPV – HARDCORE HEAVEN!!! The Show will defend his title against the #1 contender, whoever that may be! All of the sudden Kurt Angle’s music hits! He gets in the ring and stares down The Big Show before warming up for his match. Paul and the Show pardon the interruption and leave as Terry Funk makes his way to the ring amidst boos!

LAST MAN STANDING MATCH
KURT ANGLE vs. TERRY FUNK(challenger)[/center][/color]The match ends up being AMAZING, nothing like the squash from a couple of weeks ago! Funk and Angle go at it tooth and nails all over the arena! Angle holds the ANKLE LOCK for a while, and as Funk is waning MICK FOLEY drops Angle with a steel chair! Then Funk drops Angle again, with a TEXAS PILEDRIVER on the chair! Funk and Foley shakes hands and Funk drags the barely-conscious Angle back to the ring! Solid neckbreaker from the Texan, but Angle makes the count at 8!!! Spinning toe hold… Angle reaches the ropes!!! Funk starts to pull him up, but Angle rolls into the ANKLE LOCK!!!!! Funk fights it and manages to turn and gouge the eyes of Kurt Angle forcing him to release the hold! Angle is persistent and drops him with the ANGLE SLAM! The referee starts the count… 6… 7….8…9…. FUNK IS UP! The straps come off and Funk is suplexed around the ring! Finally he applies the ANKLE LOCK!! After several minutes Terry Funk screams out in agony! Mick Foley rushes to the ring but Angle gives him a belly-to-belly suplex OUT OF THE RING!!!!! The referee starts to count…. 4….5… Funk tries to stand, but his ankle gives way! 6….. 7….. 8… Funk is on his knees… 9… he stands and collapses once more due to his ankle! 10!!!!!!! Angle wins!!! His music hits and the crowd goes crazy! Angle ignores Mick Foley and walks towards the back. As he gets to the entrance he turns around and give the belt around the waist gesture! ECW ECW ECW ECW ECW!!!!!!!

winner: Kurt Angle
