"Before I start off with this ECW recap, I have this news to break to you. I'm sure that a lot of people were looking forward to this Friday night's Smackdown broadcast with Jim Ross and Jerry 'The King' Lawler once again, but this past Monday night, as he was on his way to do Smackdown, Jim Ross suffered his third Bell's Palsy attack. Thankfully, he was able to reach WWE doctors who were In Jacksonville this past Monday night for Raw, so Micheal Cole and Jerry 'The King' Lawler  will call Smackdown this Friday night.


"Like J.R was saying in one of his blogs, better days are on the horizon. Hope to see you back in action soon, J.R.  You are without a doubt a true voice of wrestling.


"Now onto last night's ECW wn which Chris Jericho made an unexpected appearance last night in the hopes of making his team Smackdown a little better going into Bragging Rights this Sunday, so he decided to have a talk with ECW General Manager, Tiffany in hopes of scouting the talent on that roster for the team, and Tiffany would not allow him to do so. She gave him 2 choices, he could either watch the show, or he could leave.



"Jericho chose to leave, and as he was leaving, Jericho had a run in with William Regal, Ezekial Jackson and Vladimir Kozlov, Jericho was hoping to recruit Kozlov and Jackson, but Tiffany was also overhearing some choice words that he had to say about Tiffany, and as a result of this, Chris Jericho was put in last night's main event against an old rival of his, the ECW Champion, Christian.


"The last time these 2 met in the ring, it was about 2004, and if my memory serves me right, I think that It was over Trish Stratus. I'm sure the whole WWE Universe remembers their rivalry, so they knew that they were in for one hell of a match, and believe me when I say, that it was. So many nearfalls took place between both men. Some people were behind Christian and some people were behind Jericho, but in the end, it was Christian who came out on top after he nailed Jericho with the Killswitch.


"Jericho got a taste of what the current ECW is about. After all, he was a part of the original ECW.




"Next week on ECW, Christian will defend the ECW Championship against Yoshi Tatsu, who beat Zack Ryder in a Number 1 Contenders match at the start of last night's show. Ryder's cocky and brass attitude didn't work in his favor this time, and I'm sure that he will be watching next week's Championship match very closely, because he know has to start from scratch all over again.




"Sheamus was set for action against J.T Quinn, who by the way, was going to get beat up by the Miz this past Monday night on Raw, until Snoop Dogg made him face Marty Jannetty.


"Last night's match was a no contest when Shelton Benjamin came and attacked Sheamus after what he said last week. Sheamus grasped the back of his head and made a quick exit after the assault.



"One more thing, Paul Burchill has not heard the last of the Hurricane by a longshot.I'm wondering who the first Hurricane was when he called him out to take the mask off."

No idea on that, but I'm sure we could be hearing more of him in time. Have a great night, everyone!
