- Very back and forth match
- Yoshi performs a VERY nice head kick

- Lots of passing around my binoculars to check out Katie
- Very "Smash mouth" type of match!

- The Abraham Washington Show -
- The WWE crew ran out with the furniture and setup for this show was pretty fast
- This has had to be the greatest edition of the show I have seen yet.
- Abe Washington continues his fat jokes on Tommy Dreamer
- Christian comes off as being very "tweener-esque"
- Speaking of Christian, my row was across from the row of the girls, holding the golden glittery "peeps" sign.
- Note: My seat was the front of the first balcony nearest the ramp. I had a nice view of the Abe Washington show!
- "SLAP FEST!" You might think that Christian slapping Dreamer was crazy, try watching that in person! That slap was wild.
- I now have a new found appreciation for the new ECW title. Its not pretty color wise but it really does sparkles and its a beauty to look at.
- Great jokes from Abe, lots of heat between Dreamer and Christian, this was the greatest way to End ECW before the pay per view!
- I found it "cute" that they had the camera high enough that the WWE crew could pull away the smaller bits of furniture, without interrupting the flow of the segment.

Superstars
-SmackDown event only
Kane vs. John Morrison
- DAMN YOU Kane! Thanks for almost taking away my hearing! Yes, his pyros are loud and hot. I could feel the heat from my seat!
- Nice chokeslam reversed into a starship pain
- This match alone makes watching this Thrusday's "WWE Superstars" VERY worth it!
- Kane loses because he hits Morrison with a chair
- Kahli comes out to save Morrison from another chair shot
- Morrison hits Kane with a chair from behind while he is distracted by Kahli
- It was very funny watching everyone and dancing along with Kahli's theme music. I hope they get that on cam.
