A most unlikely individual – Donald Trump – took WrestleMania 23 to the extreme when he selected Bobby Lashley as his representative in the Battle of the Billionaires. Mr. McMahon cannot be too happy about this news and neither can the Chairman’s choice, the Samoan Bulldozer, especially after the brawl between Lashley and Umaga on Raw that took nearly two dozen security guards, referees and officials to break up.
In fact, Mr. McMahon was so upset that he left Raw, telling Jonathan Coachman that he was heading to San Jose to teach Lashley a lesson on his own turf, ECW on Sci Fi. He also promised to make Lashley’s life “a living hell.” What does the Chairman have in store for the ECW World Champion? Has “The Donald” have found the one competitor that can keep Trump’s infamous mane unshaved?
Lashley has his hands full, as he will also meet Hardcore Holly in a Steel Cage Match for the ECW World Title. Anything can happen when these two Extremists do battle in a steel cage. Who will prevail as ECW World Champion when the night is over?
Last week, the ECW Originals won their latest battle with the New Breed when Rob Van Dam pinned Kevin Thorn after a Five-Star Frog Splash. But the war between the two sides seems far from over. What will be the next chapter in this battle for supremacy in the Land of the Extreme?
CM Punk has said he thrives on competition, and now he has won the right to compete on the grandest stage of them all in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match at WrestleMania 23. With his victory over Raw’s Johnny Nitro on ECW on Sci Fi, he will now represent ECW at WrestleMania. How will the other Extremists react to the straightedge young star’s upcoming debut at sports-entertainment’s greatest event?
Find out Tuesday night on ECW on Sci Fi at 10/9 CT.
