Guest The Great Ahmar Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 From WWE.com: Moments after screwing Rob Van Dam out of the ECW Championship, Paul Heyman gave the following statement to ECW.com: “As of this moment, Rob Van Dam has been suspended for 30 days.” I approached Heyman immediately as he came backstage following the match to ask him why he screwed Van Dam. Heyman only smiled and offered the above statement. I followed him to ask him why RVD was suspended and why he was screwed out of the ECW Championship…but he only walked faster. When I finally got to his office door, Heyman slammed the door in my face. Unfortunately, what should have been RVD’s holiday weekend homecoming went from bad to worse to downright horrible. On Monday morning, everything seemed cool as RVD walked into the Wachovia Center as both the ECW and WWE Champion; Tuesday night, however, he left the building with no gold and no job for a month. After losing the WWE Championship to Edge in a Triple Threat Match on RAW, RVD also lost his ECW Championship to Big Show live on ECW on Sci Fi Tuesday night. With the referee down, Van Dam seemingly had the match won after a Five-Star Frog Splash. Paul Heyman went to count the pinfall like he did at One Night Stand…but before he got to three, Heyman stopped and stared at RVD. Van Dam looked like he had just lost his best friend, and as he and Heyman did some jaw jacking, Big Show recovered. He spun Rob around and nailed him with a chair, and after a vicious chokeslam on that same chair, ECW had a new champion. And now, with the suspension levied by Heyman, it looks like RVD won’t have a chance to right the wrong he has been handed. Well I saw it coming. WWE needed to take action against so it was a right thing to do I suspose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dave7g Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Well I saw it coming. WWE needed to take action against so it was a right thing to do I suspose. Why bother posting the drug bust story on their site then? They really do think all of the fans are retarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FreeSpirit Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 RVD got off light IMO. If it had been one of the smaller WWE Superstars or ECW Extremists they would have been fired on the spot. Hopefully he'll learn from this lesson now, as this incident could have destroyed his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sazzle Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 i dont like RVD but that was horrible he didnt deserve that type of treatment heyman could have just said to him i am suspending you for 30 days with this reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrFill Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 i dont like RVD but that was horrible he didnt deserve that type of treatment heyman could have just said to him i am suspending you for 30 days with this reason... It's called Kayfabe. On-screen he's suspended for "no reason that we know", although the Internet community know why he's been suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Christof Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Do you not remember late 2002, early 2003? Heyman was booking Show as a Monster and he was over. Now its 2006 and he's doing the same. I buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarkMatchJobber Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Now WWE only have one strong champion in Edge because the other two are a joke and are embarassments to the legacies of their belts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current ECW world title has No legacy. It was created all of a month ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Danny Styles Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 **** week for RVD, but 30 days is quite small, seeing as Orton got 90 days just for his behaviour and Masters has been of TV for months due to drugs but i'm thinking Sabu will get a harsher punishment seeing as he wasn't doing much in the ECW weekly show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stevehayes2005 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 right as RVD and SABU the 2 main reasons I watch RAW and ECW lately are gonna be gone for a while or longer?I am not bothering to buy any PPVs or watch WWE shows now until they return. Edge as champ is just a joke he doesn't look or act like a champion - I'll have to just stick with TNA and ROH for a while I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Now WWE only have one strong champion in Edge because the other two are a joke and are embarassments to the legacies of their belts. I think your being grosely unfair to the Big Show, but it's your opinion and im sure you'll stick by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TNA TNA TNA Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Yeah thats why i used to watch ECW and RAW too, oh well TNA TNA. Im suprised he only got 30 days. Bu i think Sabu is in a lot more trouble. ECW is in trouble now coz Angle will take time off some and apart from that they havent got many wrestlers but they'll probably push big OVW guys like CM Punk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shoobinator Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 He deserved suspending and having his titles taken off him. RVD deserves for being absolutely stupid!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chriscare Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 oh come on! Yesterday the mods jump on 'Lita and Edge Split?' being a Raw spoiler in the title, but nothing for 'RVD Suspended' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shoobinator Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 oh come on! Yesterday the mods jump on 'Lita and Edge Split?' being a Raw spoiler in the title, but nothing for 'RVD Suspended' I agree. My thread title was a theory and didnt guarantee what actually happened whereas this thread is a total spoiler and has spoilt ECW's weekly show for me. These moderators need to sort it out! They are more hypocritical than the referees at this years world cup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chriscare Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I think it's you, they just plain don't like you. Well we'll show them, we'll start our own club called the no mod's club, and then when they ask why Darkstar is in it we'll says, "it's no mod's plural, we're allowed one" and they'll cry, they'll cry so much ahahahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shoobinator Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Hmph' date=' think it'll be the "no mod's or roq club"[/quote'] Good idea. We can be known as "The Nation of Unmoderation". That was horrible, I am cringing at my own suggestion but I wont edit it out so everyone else can cringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrFill Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Here's an idea, if you don't like something about a thread, like spoilers or something, then Report it! The "Report Post" button is there for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shoobinator Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 There was no need to report this thread because if the mods on this site closed the "Edge and Lita to split?" then surely this would have been closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MrFill Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I closed that thread because it turned into a "These are the rules" and "I don't want to follow them" thread rather than discussing the theory. If you think a thread title is a Spoiler in itself, then report it, we'll update it so that fewer people see the Spoiler, that's part of what it's there for.
