Wait wait, Christian is on the ECW brand??? Or just showed up or something? (I can't load WWE pages for some reason, so I can't read the story)

I hope to the high heavens he isn't on the ECW brand. He should be on RAW or Smackdown and instantly put in the title picture. He wasn't appreciated at the end of his last WWE tenure, let's hope they do this time around.

He's challenging for the ECW Championship.

Yeah it seems he is only on ECW sadly :(

He needs to be challenging Cena or Edge :p

Totally agree. I want him on SD with Edge and the Hardys. I guess they thought ECW would be somewhere where he wouldn't be lost in the pack.

Anyway, good news that Christian is back! Makes me want to actually watch ECW after a long time.

They won't want to associate him with Edge, they want to make Christian a good singles wrestler and not be linked with Edge this is a problem I think WWE have with the Hardys everyone thinks Matt and Jeff and not their singles success that being said don't be surprised if they push them together again because it means ratings.

It's known that a few storylines needed rewrites because of leaks.

I do hope Christian is given the push he clearly should have.

Yeah plus if you read wwe news daily you will know Christian has been backstage.

After watching ECW finally, I gotta admit I liked the way they brought him back. It was pretty obvious he was gonna be the person responsible for all the Jeff Hardy crap, but after it was leaked Vince got ticked and changed it to Matt, which is better anyways because Matt deserves some limelight shining on him also.

But Christian just showed up and beat Swagger. Now you can say all you want about the ECW brand. But Swagger is a hell of an athlete and wrestler. And Christians first match back he beat him of course. Whether or not he gets moved to the main RAW or Smackdown roster down the road is another story. But he's obviously gonna be going into Wrestlemania either as ECW champion, or winning the championship from Swagger or Finlay (who also deserves a title run).

Plus, I loved his new entrance music.

They'll switch him at the next draft, they have put him on ECW for one reason only and that is to make it watchable because before last night I stopped watching ECW because to me I still love the old ECW. Swagger is a good wrester but he can't cut promos for jack or look the part, he even dropped the belt at the beginning.

WWE confirms the Draft lottery will return after Wrestlemania XXV:

WWE has announced that the Draft will be coming back after WrestleMania XXV. The 2009 Draft will air a week after the big event on the April 13th edition of Monday Night Raw from Atlanta.

Wrestlezone

Here is a very good interview with John Cena that the Baltimore Sun did recently where he talks about lots of stuff, including last year's UK Sun interview where he pretty much told The Rock off for turning his back on the wrestling biz. Pretty good read actually even if you "hate" Cena, you gotta give him props for what he's done for the company over the past few years.

Baltimore Sun

Rappy: Based upon?

...the fact ECW is utter crap and Christian is to big a name for ECW. With that happening in April he would have a good 2 month title reign as champ then move...just my 2 cents tho.

Christian deserves to be on RAW or Smackdown in fueds with the big names. He was a multiple time world champion in TNA among other things. Up until Kurt Angle and Mick Foley went over there, he was the biggest name they had. I just hope WWE doesn't crap all over him. Vince has a thing for people who leave WWE and return. He likes to put them in the dog house for awhile.

He certainly can be a main eventer in WWE and deserves to be world champion there also. I can see great fueds for him:

Jericho

HHH

Cena

Shawn Michaels

Matt or Jeff Hardy

Edge

The list can go on and on. Christian is a terrific singles wrestler now, and can hold his own against anyone. Some of the stuff he did in TNA was way better than some of the guys do in WWE at this point.

It's almost a developmental brand! But that's fine cos it keeps the dross off SD/Raw...

Oh wait, no it doesn't!

Yeah they are using ECW to test new superstars, for example Tyson debuted this week from the Hart Stable and he looks good but if you debuted him on Raw he would of been not well received.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
