Hello Everyone! There was no Sailormoon or TNA news today, but GOOD LORD the WWE and ROH news! Let’s get to it! In order to get to everything, I’m separating the ECW news.

WWE: Jeff Hardy has been suspended, following an alleged Wellness Policy violation. No further details are available at this time, prompting many to think that Jeff is on a long list of popular wrestlers being singled out, due to Jeff’s independance. Jeff Hardy will NOT be in the Money In The Bank Match at Wrestlemainia, as his suspension will last the next 60 days. Hence forth an emergency MITB qualification match was scheduled Tuesday for ECW, where CM Punk beat Big Daddy V via countout in Punk’s hometown of Chicago. Many of the wrestlers are said to be in disbelief and mild shock over Jeff’s suspension. In other news,  further reports from last night’s Raw taping indicate that the brawl between Floyd Mayweather’s crew and Big Show’s posse was completely UNPLANNED and UNSCRIPTED! I wrote about this incident in my post from yesterday, you can check it out for details on the tv side of things. Reports also indicate that the brawl was even more brutal than what was shown on tv, with the fight having spilled out around the ring and behind where the camera guys stood. Many people walked away punched and bruised, after Shane McMahon, who had also been attacked by one of Floyd’s men, got the crowd under control. Stay tuned…

ECW: ECW was HOT tonight, having aired live in Chicago, Illinois to a pro-Punk crowd! In a shocking move, the show opened with a Tag Team Title contest under extreme rules! The match was headlined by Tommy Dreamer (In a Cubs jersey) & Colin Delaney vs. Miz and Morrison. The match featured Colin lighting up the crowd with death defying acrobatics and hard hitting weapon based attacks, while Tommy went all old school, pulling the boys into vintage ECW style! The match only came to a screeching hault, when Miz put Tommy through a backwards table which was positioned only on the middle rope. A move so dumb, even a newbie would NEVER try. ECW GM Armando Alejandro Estrada (did I spell it right?) made an announcement for Wrestlemainia. Since there isn’t a #1 contender for Chavo’s ECW heavyweight title, there will be a 24 man battle royal at WM, the winner of which will face Chavo later that night for the belt. After this, Stevie Richards was tossed into a match with Khali. The match was so quick, I literally blinked through it. No, really, Stevie got in the ring, I blinked, Khali got the pinfall. After reviewing the tape, I can now see that Khali won via a powerbomb. Afterwards, Mike Knox got in the ring and sloppily attacked Stevie. It is uncertain where and even WHY this storyline is going, but one thing is for sure, it’s ugly. In a hot, high flying match, Kofi Kingston defeated Deuce with a Kofi Kick. Kofi’s star is only rising higher each week, with the crowd behind him every step of the way! Festus made an unexpected visit to ECW, and won a quick contest against Elijah Burke, after flipping the loudmouth quite a bit. As reported earlier, Punk won the emergency Money in the Bank match in a tug of war style match. V and Punk took turns dominating, but when V fell to the outside, the win was in Punk’s grasp. However, a win had to be coaxed out of the referee, who was having trouble counting to 10. CM Punk got his crowd roaring, and the crowd helped the ref learn to count in NORMAL PEOPLE TIME. Before Punk could celebrate, Matt Stryker barged into the ring, shouting his displeasure in the outcome. Matt was then greeted with The Go To Sleep, and as he promptly collapsed, Punk’s fans cheered loudly!

ROH: If you live in the areas where ROH is headed friday and Saturday, GET GOING NOW!! ROH on Friday and Saturday will be filming the MOST IMPORTANT SCENES from the upcoming Micky Rourke feature “The Wrestler”, about an older ex-wrestler, foucused on getting back in the ring, following a major health crisis.
