WWE "ECW on Syfy" Hits

Christian vs. William Regal: We all knew Regal was going to get another title shot, but I like the way they went about it. Regal was inexplicably given a title shot and lost in eight seconds. It made sense for Tiffany to make Regal earn his way back into the title picture. The match itself was not fantastic, but it was solid and makes me want to see the feud continue.

William Regal, Ezekiel Jackson, and Vladimir Kozlov: I like this faction on ECW. Regal can make a nice heel champion and really get both of these guys over, especially Jackson. I still think the money program down the line will be the champion in Regal vs. Jackson, who turns babyface to feud with him. It won't be Triple H vs. Batista around WrestleMania 21, but it will be good.

Goldust vs. Sheamus: This feud reminds me a bit of when Cody Rhodes debuted in WWE and had a feud with Hardcore Holly. Usually, only the championship program in ECW warrants any attention, but I like that this mid-card feud has been given so much attention. Goldust has been good for Sheamus and vice versa.

Paul Burchill promo: I am a fan of both Burchill and Hurricane Helms, so I was happy to see the follow up to last week's match between the two. I am enjoying the direction of the mid-card in ECW with the exception of two new babyfaces (read below).

WWE "ECW on Syfy" Misses

Shelton Benjamin and Zack Ryder vs. Tyler Reks and Yoshi Tatsu: I was not a fan of the match when it was made and I just did not like the match in execution. I would not mind seeing a Benjamin vs. Ryder feud on Smackdown, but I think both guys deserve better than to mentor two new guys on ECW, especially Benjamin.
