It looks like the whole invasion angle just got alot better. Damn I love when I'm suprised in wrestling. I knew RVD was comming in but I thought it was going to be for WCW. The only thing I wonder now is how they keep track of all this and how all these people get t.v time.

WOW!!!

I hope this angle isn't over after tonight, this is PPV caliber material if it ever existed!

No kidding! Suddenly the "invasion" has gotten very interesting!

Stephanie McMahon as the ECW Owner!

In a word, wow!

Not just the fact that she's the new owner, but the fact that you could see her nipples popping through her pink dress!

Somebody please have some screen shots of Stephanie!

I'm with Timber on this one ...

That outfit was what I like to refer to as a 2 second drop ...

WOW

Two major twists in one night!! So is ECW going to have its matches on WWF TV or WCW? Either way I am going to be viewing the Invasion PPV now, I am sold all the way. I'll be watching it at my local Hooter's, which is an hour away but still worth the drive!
Out of cuirousity, who are the faces and who are the heels? Heck, are there any to really speak of? Just a bunch of guys kicking the tar out of each other, what wrestling should be about!

I think the WCW/ECW guys are the "heels" although I think ECW's badass persona will get them more of a positive crowd reaction than they were getting with just the WCW guys.

Now don't let me bring you guys down from the Steph high, but what the hell is wrong with just Heyman running the ECW end of things?? Is Stephanie that big of an asset (insert joke here) to the company that they really need her running around during HHH's absence? With all the WCW ladies, I figured the WWF/ECW/WCW is pretty well covered for T&A (although if they brought back Beulah I guess THAT couldn't hurt).

No -- it's simply the gimmick that every fed has a McMahon... and you didn't see Linda owning ECW, did you?

Enough with the damn McMahons and their running anything and everything to do with the shows!! What's next, Linda buying the XPW and bringing in Sabu and that bunch, or maybe she could get the Insane Clown Posse and bring them in, or maybe she could buy New Japan...

Seriously, I understand that these shows are really about the McMahons egos, but c'mon, we don't need this turning into another Wrestlemania 2000.

I'm just waiting for Stephanie to pose in Playboy ...

I'm gonna try out for Tough Enough just so she can console me at the water fountain.

D

Paul Heyman will be Linda's new boyfriend

It's about F'n time that things are gettin' interesting again in wrestling. Everything had been sooo predictable and boring.. It's nice to finally have some "surprises" pop up. If the WWF wants me to become a regular weekly viewer again, they better not #$%@ things up.

If only The King would come back...

Best...Raw...EVER


THE VANDAMINATOR!!!

TOMMY DREAMER!!

E-C-DUB!

I'm assuming The King is back, since they lost their commentators for both Raw and Smackdown last night.....

Off the ECW topic for a second, but now that we see Undertaker's wife close up, her face does not belong that body.

I think you will be waiting for a veeerrryyyy long time, with all the money she has

But I guess we can dream right

True. Then again, if they decide to airbrush her in the same manner as they did Belinda Carlisle, I'd rather not pick up the issue in the first place ...

Yeah, she definately has a butter face.

Her butt is definately better than her face ...

Actually the meaning of butter face is that everything is good...butter face.

King is being stubborn and won't come back until his wife (Kat) is allowed back so do expect to see him soon...

This angle is f'n great though. Vince finally listens to the people... They don't chant WCW, they sucked when they died....

The crowds have been chanting ECW which was cool when it couldn't afford to compete anymore...

Definately the best WWF has put out in over a year.... Just a guess, but I would bet ECW guys take over until Rock and HHH are able to comeback to "retake the WWF"

i ALKWAYS went up to phili t see EC DUB whenever it came to teh original ECW arena (which is a bingo hall..)!!! i always had those bad ass ring side seats!! (they were real cheap) i loved ECW, then they shut down, i swear i was on the verge of crying!! then last night, i was watching raw, and ECW came back, i swear my fat ass nearly did a cartwheel!! i was sooo damn happy!!!!
i love WWF once again!!!

I taped the ending of Raw last night and have watched it many times since. Like the rest of you, I am glad to see ECW getting in the spotlight. However, I really can't approve of Steph as the ECW owner. She really doesn't strike me as that extreme. I think the best way for her to play a part is making her character mute. She's pretty, but her acting skills stink to high heaven.
My real hope is that ECW and WCW wind up sharing air space and an eventual WCW vs. ECW feud between siblings in the new time slot. Face facts, without ECW behind it, the WCW would now be a defunct idea on the wrestlecrap website.

It's kind of sad that the Raw fans in Atlanta couldn't care less about the WCW guys but went nuts when ECW attacked. Bring in Flair and let's do this shiznit right!
