"The Moose's Mailbag"
11/03/2000
Hello Once Again Everyone-
This is November to Remember week here at ECWNews.com. Let me tell ya, the fact of it being the time for ECW's annual showcase event can only help the mood. This one is going to be a great one. Keeping that in mind, leave us get to the mailbag question of the week.
How do Moose? My name is Steve-o. I work at nights. I'm looking forward to the 8th annual November to Remember. Since you're someone who's been to all of them so far, what's your take on this year?
Well thanks, Steve-O. I'll take your question as a way to get my predictions on record for the 8th annual ECW November to Remember…
SIX MAN TAG MATCH: Danny Doring, Roadkill and Kid Kash taking on EZ Money, Simon Diamond and Julio Dinero
Oh yeah, Simon's gonna have a problem alright and he likes chickenz. It's going to be interesting to see where this one is on the show. Cause to get Kash and Money again in the ring can be a show-stoppah. Put into that mix Doring and Roadkill and this is going to be a hell of a match. I see Simon taking the fall for his team at the hands of Roadkill and the Kid Kash/EZ Money series being taken to a new level.
ECW Television Title Match up- Rhino vs. New Jack
This is the wildcard of the night. I'm thrilled that New Jack is getting a title shot. The bumps and dives and bullshit that this man has taken are enough to move anyone up the "contention ladder. The November to Remember, not only being ECW's showcase event, is also a very sentimental time in the company. That is of course if the word sentimental can be used in ECW. However, I'm sure how its going to happen, but something tells these old bones that New Jack walks away the victor.
Flaming Tables: Da Baldies vs. Chilly Willy and Balls Mahoney
This could be pretty damn ugly. Da Baldies and Balls are already way over as big time brawlers and legitimate tough guys in the business. This is a chance for everyone's "homeboy" to finally get his niche in ECW as being the "hardcore homeboy". The wild card in this match is going to be the ECW New York bouncer Red Dawg. Ever since his arrival in ECW, the Dawg seems to not be sure what side of the fence he is on. Even though he's been listed on the Baldies site, he came to Willy's aid in a recent episode of Hardcore TV. So, he is important in this match up to say the least. I see him though sticking with his street friends and helping them to put Balls through the table.
Chris Chetti vs. Nova in a battle of former partners
When you see a tag team form, you ultimately know that they are going to split and fight one another. Unfortunately, this had to happen too quickly with Nova and Chetti. Even though the innovator of offence will bring a lot to the table, something tells me that Lou E will get himself involved. I mean not only is he trying to help get Chetti over, but he's got a lot of pent up frustrations from the bad start the Flyers are having. Look for Lou to help and with the phone show Nova what true concussion like symptoms are and Chetti getting the duke.
ECW World Tag Team Title Match: The FBI w/ Big Sal vs. Tajiri & Mikey w/ the Sinister Minister.
Well, we're gonna stop the show twice? Yes- that could very well be the case. Television did not do the matches that these teams had at Hammerstein back in August. Guido has earned his deserved slot as one of the finest wrestlers around now. Mamaluke might be small but he's wiry. Talk about concussion like symptoms, oy. Tajiri should have the ring rust off and be back to his August form. The Japanese buzzsaw should be in full effect and ever since being under the Minister's tutlidege, Mikey's been able to harness that power of the dark side to help him in the ring. I see Mikey and Tajiri getting the gold back in this one, even though Big Sal is going to try to interfere. Someone cooking a ham?
CW Anderson vs. Super Crazy
CW Anderson is making his way quickly towards the top, not only in ECW- but also in the wrestling business. Lately much has been made that no Anderson has held a world title. Expect that to change. However, there is another step on that ladder to the top and its Crazy. Super Crazy. In the AAA promotion, Super Crazy's been showing a more extreme side; expect to see that he has brought that back with him to the states. Both men have a lot to prove. CW to show that he deserves another shot at the gold and Super Crazy to prove that he belongs back in ECW. Even though it's a bit of a mix of styles, it's going to be a fun match to watch. I expect CW to continue on his path to the top with a win here.
Double Jeopardy match: Jerry Lynn vs. Justin Credible and also Steve Corino vs. the Sandman
Hmmm. Either this one is going to work beautifully or be a disaster waiting to happen. I mean, well hell, the match with Jerry Lynn and Justin Credible could be over before Sandman gets to the ring. It's going to be a little tough to follow and I don't see how they're not going to get in each other's way. So that is going to cause some problems at some point. However, this is the spot for a prediction and I see a great match up between Jerry Lynn and Steve Corino for the title at the end. This is though how I think it gets that way. There's going to be problems with the Sandman and Justin Credible. Not only will we have the much-anticipated katfight between Dawn Marie and Francine. However, a lot of problems have been going on between Justin Credible and Francine. Tensions if you will. It will seem that that tension escalates in this one and so much so that the guy who Francine left for Justin and friend of the Sandman makes the big ol save, Tommy Dreamer. Tommy might not be able to do that much right now, but face it, its not the November to Remember without Tommy Dreamer. The title match with Lynn and Corino will be a classic and establish Lynn as an even more legitimate champion and get Corino to the top of the roster.
Until next time, thanks for reading and make sure to get those questions to [email protected] and you just might see them here in The Moose's Mailbag.
