    MLB ALL-STAR THANKS THE WWE UNIVERSE FOR HELPING HIM MAKE THE TEAM

    Friday, July 10, 2009, 05:17 PM EST [General]

    The Philadelphia Phillies' Shane Victorino won the voting for the final spot on the MLB National League All-Star team. Whether or not your votes helped him win that coveted spot, Shane sent this message to the WWE Universe,

    "I want to thank the WWE Universe for voting for me this past week and helping me get into the All-Star Game.  Your support was tremendous and I can't wait to get back in the ring on RAW or Smackdown!"

    Speaking of Philadelphia, don't forget that Night of Champions will, coincidentially, emanate live from Philadelphia.

    PHILLY RUNS THROUGH MY VEINS

    Monday, July 6, 2009, 05:45 PM EST [General]

    Yes I was born in the Bronx. Yes I love the Yankees. However, as many members of the WWE Universe know, the Original ECW and its home, South Philly, will always be a part of me personally and professionally.

    With a Tony Luke's Italian Roast Pork sandwich on my mind, I just cast my vote for the final MLB 2009 All Star team spot to be filled by Philadelphia's Shane Victorino. It's not just the fact that I love Philly. Shane loves WWE and has repeatedly appeared on WWE TV, even being subjected to Jillian's singing. How can a woman with such healthy lungs use them so atrociously?

    In any case, I encourage any Original ECW fans out there to vote Shane Victorino into the final spot of MLB's National League All Star team at MLB.com

    TWEET HEAT AND WHAT'S IN A NAME?

    Thursday, June 11, 2009, 06:01 PM EST [General]

    First and foremost, I would like to thank all the wrestling dirt sites that took notice and linked to my passionate tweets at twitter.com/wwejoeystyles. All of the media coverage has resulted in a 20% increase in followers in a single week!

    Sunday night at Extreme Rules, fellow ECW Original Tommy Dreamer won his second ECW Championship almost nine years after winning his first one at The ECW Arena in Philadelphia. While I didn't have the privilege of calling the match (I would have come out of retirement just for Tommy and The Original ECW), I did interview Tommy immediately after his match exclusively on WWE.com and both of us shed tears of joy.

    In 2000, after winning his first ECW Championship, Tommy was challenged to defend the title immediately. Tommy let his pride get the better of him, accepted the match, had his own manager betray him and lost the ECW Championship. Tommy never got to wear the title belt.

    Well, Sunday night after our online interview I accompanied Tommy Dreamer to our locker room photo studio and personally snapped the ECW Championship belt around the new champion's waist so history could be properly documented and will live forever.

    ECW without Tommy Dreamer would be like the New York Yankees without pinstripes. Sure, they would still be called The Yankees but what's in a name? A name is just a name. A rose by any other name would not smell as sweet. In fact, I would argue that it would stink on ice.

    I complete this blog feeling an inner peace because The Yankees wear pinstripes and ECW has Tommy Dreamer.

    Dream on Original ECW fans because in some ways, the dream lives on.
