[edit] Actual name?

According to this page on WWE.com's website regarding Tazz and Heyman's ECW AONS announcement, the event is still being refered to as One Night Stand (or "another One Night Stand," with the word "another" apparently being kept out of the title). I'm not suggesting we change this page just yet, as it very well could turn out to be called Another One Night Stand. I imagine we'll find out tonight for sure when the announcement is televised on RAW. Just something to keep in mind. Jeff Silvers 23:48, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

...Did I just miss the announcement last night, or was one not made? Because I seemed to remember hearing that Tazz was going to repeat the announcement last night on RAW (perhaps they meant he'd repeat it on SmackDown!, which would seem to make more sense anyway). Jeff Silvers 01:32, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

They've done almost nothing to promote the show at this point, since they're far too busy with Wrestlemania 22 and Saturday Night's Main Event. I suspect we'll see more of an "official" push once both those events are over, just like the ONS show last year wasn't pushed much until after WM21. BronzeWarrior 09:26, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

WWE has released an official poster for the event now. I won't get into details about what the poster contains because it actually contains major spoilers, but I will say that it confirms the event is called ECW One Night Stand 2. I think the article title should now be changed to reflect this. Jeff Silvers 01:15, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

...Oh. Apparently that poster was a fake. Well damn. Jeff Silvers 13:59, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Also, go to WWE.com and see the ECW ONS ticket commercial. It's the same logo/name as last year.

Great move to ONS 2006 whoever did that. Really good thinking. I'm very happy with that. Normy 08:10, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RVD

RVD said that his wwe title shot would be extreme so therefore (un)officially he has agreed to use it at ECW:ONS.

[edit] Steve Corino

I took Steve Corino off of the list of people slated to appear, as he his self has stated that he has not been contacted nor does he intend to appear.

[edit] Help

Someone wanna fix the image on the page so that the Image: and the 200px things don't show above and below it? The Phenomenal One 05:40, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Sorry about this but I've removed it, it's fake. Apparently, ringsidemayhem took the poster made by a guy called Alldawson from this graphics battle on the Extreme Warfare Battleground and posted it up as real. --Oakster 08:19, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RVD

I don't thimk this should be posted until the match is outright confirmed by the WWE. I'm gonna delete it until it's absolutley confirmed.KE

[edit] "Confirmed Matches"

Unless you hear something official on WWE TV or on WWE.com, do not go posting any rumored matches...I know RVD's been hinting what he's gonna do with his briefcase, but nothing official has actually been said. The Phenomenal One 05:17, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

i dont see why Wikipedia cant have rumoured matches,especially when RVD almost confirmed it. but ofcourse,it should only be done when it has been hinted at.and who made the rule that we cannot have rumours on wrestler biographies? its an encyclopedia after all right? its not like were supposed to stick to the world of WWE. Lord revan 20:51, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

It's quite simple. It's because the match hasn't been confirmed by any sources, only hinted at. And WWE hints at many things we want (a Shane-O-Mac face turn), that don't happen. And Wikipedia, as an encyclopedia, deals in fact, not rumor. Darryl Hamlin 14:40, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Something Interesting

I read this on Rajah.com, with PWTorch being the source:

Source: Pro Wrestling Torch Newsletter

The current plan for the upcoming ECW PPV in June is for Rob Van Dam to cash in his Money in the Bank contract against John Bradshaw Layfield for the World Heavyweight championship. This scenario requires Rey Mysterio to drop the title to JBL before the show. RVD has yet to announce who he will face for their title and would not do so until after the title change. Challenging JBL for his title would require RVD to jump to SmackDown.

There had been previous talk about having RVD face the winner of Sunday's Backlash main event. However, there is an issue with Van Dam facing each of the three possible opponents. Triple H is on the verge of turning face and getting such major negative heat on him conflicts with that. John Cena also doesn't need that negativity while he's already fighting on a weekly basis for the fans approval. Edge has little history with RVD and minimal history with ECW. Edge's only history with ECW was appearing at last year's One Night Stand PPV as part of the anti-ECW crusaders. The leader of that pack was John Bradshaw Layfield. He was the most outspoken about ECW last year and it is expected that his tirade will pick up once again very shortly, making him the perfect target for RVD.

I don't know if that can be included somewhere in the article, but I figured I'd bring it to everyone's attention. The Styles Clash 00:04, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

It shouldn't really be included if for no other reason then the fact there's conflicting reports, in particular PWInsider who are still heavily claiming it'll be against whoever has the WWE title. Though JBL is more realistic (plus sensible) and as far as I've seen certain people on PWInsider are extremely against admitting they were wrong, so they'll probably keep claiming it's going to be for the WWE title until they can find a source who'll tell them WWE changed their plans which'll give them an excuse to change the story. --Kiltman67 18:22, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

I don't see why they don't just keep the World Heavyweight title on Mysterio until ONS and have RVD challenge him. Mysterio has history with ECW so it would make sense for him to participate (as he did last year). Jeff Silvers 00:01, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

The common response to that seems to be that they want a clear cut heel for RVD to face, or Cena since it's pretty safe to expect he'd get booed out of the building by the ECW fans. I kind of think that it's a shame since if Mysterio went out there on top form, unlike last year, he and RVD would have a match that the ECW audience would love, and in the unlikely event of Mysterio retaining it could perhaps give some credibility to his reign. --Kiltman67 04:50, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New poster

I replaced the old image with a newer one that features a bloodstain and a caption that reads, "EXTREME PAY-PER-VIEW FROM THE ORIGINAL EXTREME BRAND" (most likely added to the poster to emphasize the fact that ECW is now a full-fledged WWE brand). Jeff Silvers 21:54, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

I uploaded a new image based on the old one - the new one had a rather unsightly watermark and was a PNG when it should have been a JPEG. If you find a new one without the watermark, replace the one I uploaded with it. --Jtalledo (talk) 22:45, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Do not add unconfirmed matches

We all read the wrestling sites, we go to house shows, we read forums, we all know about the rumors and possibilities for the show, but if it has NOT been officially confirmed by WWE, then it does NOT belong in the article. We all read the rumor sites, we know there was a video promo at some house show hyping Sabu vs Mysterio at ONS, but until it is officially confirmed on WWE.com, or on Raw or Smackdown, it has no place in the article. Wikipedia deals in confirmable facts, anything else doesnt count. DemonWeb 16:54, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I would like to further point out that, in accordance with Wikipedia's policy on kayfabe, matches officially announced at television tapings should not be listed until the show has aired. Jeff Silvers 18:12, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I just deleted the World Title match. It was announced at the SD tapings this week but won't air on TV on Friday in America. TJ Spyke 18:50, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

It is still there. i have tryed to go to the page to delete the rey sabu match but on the edit page it doesn't show up. yet it is still seen on the main page. why is this

Try refreshing or clearing your cache, its not on the article page anymore, and dont forget to sign your posts. DemonWeb 20:26, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

People continue to keep trying and add it, are these people too stupid to understand what "DO NOT list matches until they are officially announced on television" means? TJ Spyke 22:41, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I dont think we even have to ask that question XD. They'll keep adding it regardless, we'll keep deleting it regardless. DemonWeb 22:42, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I just added and deleted the world title match for you guys.

Should the page be locked to unregistered users for a period of time? It might help. Normy 05:22, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I would disagree. This should be treated as an exception. It doesn't ruin anything for people who haven't seen the show yet, as it is not part of an agle or storyline, it is just an announcement, and it is also an official announcement. I also don't believe it breaks kayfabe in any way, so there should be no problem. It is not speculation, as it has been recorded as being officially announced. No speculation or disscusion of the match has been made, just that it will happen.

Chrispy 14:26, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I say it should be locked. Its policy that it should not listed until its officially announced, regardless of if it will be in a few days or not. Until it appears on WWE.com or airs on television, its not 'official'.DemonWeb 13:34, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I just saw a commercial for One Night Stand which advertised a Rey vs. Sabu match, a bWo vs. FBI match, and a Super Crazy vs. Psichosis vs. Tajiri vs. Mikey Whipwreck match.

I guess they are all official.

That advertisement must have been in New York City since they aren't airing nationally. I think this page should be locked from unregistered users since they are the ones who keep adding matches that haven't been announced on TV yet. TJ Spyke 22:03, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree. We need to make sure there is evidence before matches are added.Yugioh73036 00:56, 2 June 2006 (UTC)Yugioh73036

Well I guess I can add it because it just aired today on SmackDown. I live in Canada(thats ur neighbor the the north) an WWE SmackDown airs on the regular thursday. I believe that counts as airing on t.v., unless the input of a Canadian means nothing.User:Killswitch Engage

From what i've seen they usually mean based on when they air in the US. TJ Spyke 04:01, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Fine u can erase ill just laugh and say "I told ya so" when its confirmed.User:Killswitch Engage

I dont know where you live exactly Killswitch, but i'm in Canada as well, and it airs on Friday for me. Either way, we ALL know it'll be confirmed, the point is its not to be added until Friday night when the show airs for everyone, thats the point. DemonWeb 04:29, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Nobody is arguing that the match won't be announced, Killswitch. We're just following an established Wikipedia guideline. Jeff Silvers 05:07, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

I live in Edmonton,Alberta.Go Oilers Go!!!!!!!User:Killswitch Engage p.s. i dont have the U.S.A. network maybe thats why

I dont have USA either ( I dont think Smackdown airs on USA ), I watch it on UPN, and it airs Fridays, meh. As Jeff and I both said, we know the match will be announced, and will be official, but its policy that its not added to the page until that happens.DemonWeb 14:35, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Now that it's official we don't have to keep removing it. This is just gonna keep happening though with announcements made on SD, i'll keep an eye out for people doing this though. TJ Spyke 00:22, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I wish Smackdown was live, then we wouldnt have to deal with this for half a week before the shows official air-time. DemonWeb 00:28, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I agree, every person I have talked too has agreed that SD would be a better show in general if it was live. TJ Spyke 00:29, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

I too wish SD was live. It'll get them further away from B-Show status. Perry 01:07, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

It looks like people will now try adding the Lawler/Tazz match. Until they either announce it on Raw or at wwe.com it's not officially a match. TJ Spyke 01:45, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Good point, forgot that he still has to accept it haha. I guess we're in for another few days of hell.DemonWeb 01:47, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Matches and Talent

If a wrestler's name is already in the matches section (e.g. Cena, RVD, Mysterio) does their name really need to be in the talent page? Why can't we put in brackets something like Mick Foley & Edge (representing WWE) vs. Tommy Dreamer & Terry Funk (representing ECW)? Normy 06:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mysterio respresenting ECW?

It appears somebody moved Mysterio from the "Representing WWE" column into the main roster of the event (which appears to be reserved for ECW-brand wrestlers). Any reason for this, seeing as how he is still on the SmackDown! roster? Jeff Silvers 15:52, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Your right Rey Mysterio is still on smackdown but Paul Heyman has offered him a contract to jump to ECW.

[edit] T-shirt matches

Please do not add FBI/Tajiri & Crazy or Mahoney/Tanaka until they are officially announced by WWE. Being listed on a T-shirt does not make them official, and WWE has since pulled that shirt, anyway. Jeff Silvers 03:52, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi all, TV reports tell that on Smackdown! tonight, the Tajiri & Super Crazzy Vs. FBI will be made offical. Watch for that during Super Crazzy's match. After it airs, then it can be added to this site.

Mahoney vs. Tanaka was not mention, so it may or may not happen as a bonus match at the PPV. --4.250.21.70 21:13, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Will they count the victory of rvd

i am currently wondering your thoughts on wether they will count the victory since paul heyman counted the 1-2-3 insted of a ref....i am currently 50-50 because part of me says that it will count but the old undisputed title will come back setting up cena edge at vengence and part of me says no because the wwe is gay like that and on monday night raw vince will come out with john cena and state that it doesnt count and cena is still the camp therefore setting the stage for the mcmahon(s)/cena vs "new-old" D-X (Triple H/HBK) just my opinion not a spoiler or w/e just my thoughts.....what do you guys and gals think.......~Jesse

They already said on wwe.com that if RVD won he would have to defend the title against Edge at Vengeance. Add in the fact that Vince would not let his WWE Title be renamed the ECW Title and i'm willing to bet that Edge will win the title at Vengeance. TJ Spyke 03:33, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Honestly I don't really know. I'm thinking theyre gonna have a rematch or give John Cena his title since "RVD won the 'ECW' title" and Edge has No. 1 contendership to the "WWE Championship" setting the stage for Vengeance. But I have no evidence to support my claim so I'll jus watch RAW and ECW to see how it plays out. [[Slapslapslap 04:38, 12 June 2006 (UTC)]]

[edit] my title therory

tonight vince will make a new wwe title and have a battle royal for it stting up cena/edge at vengance and RVD will rechristen the "old" wwe title the ECW title tommorrow night

[edit] Chants

Im pretty sure i heard some Fuck you Cena chants so im gonna add it. User:Killswitch Engage

Do we even need a chants section? It just looks more like clutter to me and I doubt most people care about the chants that were made. Maybe it could be trimmed down to about 4 or 5. TJ Spyke 21:25, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

The chants section is a bit extensive, but ECW is well known for the crowds chants. Id suggest maybe reorganizing the list and group similar chants/chants giving to specific wrestlers thoughout the night. It'll shorten the list visually, without really messing it up. DemonWeb 01:44, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Ive shortened the list down to about half, leaving pretty much just the more memorable chants from the event. Any opinions? DemonWeb 23:55, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Can't sleep, clowns will eat me deleted the chants and I agree with his edit. This stuff is largely unverifiable to the user and it's notable enough to be included. A few could be mentioned as prose in the overview to describe how the crowd was. --Jtalledo (talk) 15:28, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hepatitis?

Just a curiousity, but why did the crowd chant Hepatitis at Randy Orton? ~ Punk2h8tshun

Because his father, "Cowboy" Bob Orton, has hepatitis. Cowboy Bob got released from WWE after he bled during his match with The Undertaker at Armageddon(John Laurenitis know this but allowed the match to happen anyways). TJ Spyke 21:24, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Ah, didn't research hard enough for that one. Thanks, TJ. ~ Punk2h8tshun
