None of the Above!

You can now vote for the challenger in the ECW Title match at Cyber Sunday. Your choices? Big Vis, John Morrison, and the Miz. Truly, those are three people. I really think that Vis and Miz in the running just to make Morrison look better by comparison. Not to say it isn't working, but still. I was impressed by that top rope inverted suplex he pulled off against Punk (even if Kennedy did it not too long ago, and they both surely stole it from a Japanese/Indie guy) last night, but I'm sick of seeing them work together after so many months of them feuding exclusively; I made my thoughts clear on Vis recently; and the Miz had to work very hard (and be moved to ECW) to go from being fastforward on sight material to being watchable, and a lot of that has to do with the fact that he's attached at the hip to Extreme Expose and involved in a surprisingly solid storyline with Ball Mahoney. In a better world, none of these guys would be up for a title shot, and we might instead be choosing from RVD, Kurt Angle, and Monty Brown (or hell, Elijah Burke would at least be in the mix). Sadly, we do not live in that world. That's a downer note to go out on, but hey, ECW just puts me in that mood right now. Which makes me feel really dumb for thinking it was a good show for a few weeks. Maybe the watchability factor is entirely contingent on the amount of Stevie Richards appearences?
