The ECW intro hits before we are welcome to the show by Josh Mathews and Matt Striker as they plug Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels from Wrestlemaina 25.
Shelton Benjamin head to the ring as we see highlights from last weeks Yoshi Tastu & Tyler Reks vs. Shelton and Zack. Ryder heads to the ring for this opening match
Shelton Benjamin vs. Zack Ryder
They look up with Shelton getting the upper hand with a clothesline into the corner before missing a stinger splash which gives Ryder an opening. Ryder locks in a chin lock which Shelton reverses into a Electric chair attempt and a leg lariat by Ryder. Ryder locks in a Cross face which Shelton hits out of before hitting a string board to down Zack.
Shelton Irish whips Zack into a corner and this time hits the stinger splash before heading to the outside and returning into the ring via a springboard neck breaker followed by Pay Dirt for the 3
Winner: Shelton Benjamin
We head to the announcers who recap last weeks Sheamus vs. Goldust which ended in a DQ so tonight’s match will be a no DQ no count out match

We are back and so is Tony Atlas who brings out Abraham Washington and Its time for his show. Abraham thanks Atlas for the intro then puts over his shown as a "critically acclaimed show". Abraham insults the home town as Atlas laughs in the background to which the crowd boos. Abraham brings out Gregory Helms and welcomes his to the shown
Straight away Abraham asks straight away if Helms if Hurricane to which says no. He puts over the fact he was a two time cruiser weight champion and the fact he came over to ECW to become a broadcaster. Paul Burchill comes out with his sister and as soon as she walks out Atlas says “Katie you look hot”. Paul tells everyone that he will keep beating down Helms until he admits he is the Hurricane. Speaking of Hurricane, he appears on the big screen and challenges Paul to a match which Paul accepts. Abraham ends the show with Atlas laughing before we head to an Undertaker video package.
We then see William Regal’s round table heading to the ring as Kozlov & Jackson will team out for the first time as we head to the break

Jackson takes out both opponents before hitting his finisher and tagging in his partner who does the same for the 3 count.
Winner Jackson & Kozlov
After the match, Christian comes out and says he’s coming to fight but not alone. Enter Tommy Dreamer and two Kendo sticks. Kozlov and Jackson head up the ramp and get a few Kendo sticks for their troubles with Christian and Tommy standing tall in the ring. We are shown an HBK video package

We are back and next week we will see Christian & Tommy Dreamer vs. Kozlov & Jackson. Sheamus heads to the ring for this No Count out/No DQ match aka Extreme Rules
Goldust vs. Sheamus
The bell rings as they wrestlers lock up then break before Sheamus pushes Dust into the corner where Dust fights which leads to the wrestlers trading punch which Goldust seems to get the upper hand after hitting a drop kick. Sheamus bails only to be clothslined on the entrance ramp as we head to a break
*Advert*
We are back with Goldust in control as they end up on the outside where Sheamus meets the Barrier before rolling back in side the ring before cutting off Dust as he attempted to get back in the ring. On the outside, Sheamus body slams Dust on the floor before rolling him back in the ring for a 2 count. Sheamus gets Dust into a chin lock which Dust fights out of only to have his fight back cut off and to find himself wrapped around the ring post. Sheamus goes back for another submission on the back of Goldust as the crowd start chanting for Goldust who fights out before hitting a few clotheslines and an atomic drop. Goldust hit’s a power slam for a 2 count before Sheamus bails to the outside only to get a clothesline which leads to both Sheamus and Goldust being thrown into the ring post before Goldust rolled Sheamus back into the ring and attempting a running bulldog with Sheamus blocks. Out of no where, Sheamus hits a bicycle kick to the face of Goldust and following that up with The Irish Curse(The rock bottom across his knee)
Once again, ECW this was awesome to watch and in my personal opinion the product is improving each week. This Shelton/Ryder feud is really starting to click and I’m finding myself enjoying Shelton in the ring for the first time in many years since returning to the Extreme Brand.
I’m a massive fan of Regal Roundtable as Regal can be the mouthpiece for the two big guys as well as being an active wrestler and putting on awesome matches with Christian over the ECW title. The ideal situation I would love to see is Regal winning the ECW title with Kozlov and Jackson winning the Tag Team belt so the faction has all the belts.
Sheamus vs. Goldust was a great match and I believe this will be a feud blow off as Goldust did his role on ECW of putting over Sheamus as a creditable threat to the belt. I think Sheamus will be the ECW title champion within 6 months.
