Third Time is Not the Charm for Test, ECW

ECW tried hard. They really wanted to sell us fans that Test was a true competitor for the title giving him three identical shots at it. What did we get out of the matchups? Lashley retaining, Test losing, and arguably the worst PPV ending ever. The seven minute match at the Royal Rumble failed us in every way possible but if that wasn’t enough we needed a third match last night.

Needless to say, Test lost again and Lashley retained. The match was same old same old but it got mildly interesting when Undertaker showed up but who really thinks he is going to challenge Lashley for the ECW title. Not me.

McMahon showed up to basically make fun of the old ECW and declare Elijah Burke as the future of the promo (I sure hope not). The ECW originals beat him down thank goodness.

In the other matches of the night Matt Striker topped CM Punk and Hardcore Holly beat Rob Van Dam.
