ECW Results 10-07-08

Todd Grisham and Matt Striker are calling tonight's show. They hype up tonights 8 man tag team match.

Tommy Dreamer and Finlay (with Hornswoggle) vs. Mike Knox and Jack Swagger

Grisham said they’d been waiting for Swagger to step up in competition and “tonight is that night.” Dreamer took control of the match, but was cut off by a big boot from Knox. The heels worked over Dreamer until he made a hot tag. The crowd popped for Finlay entering the match. He hit a dropkick off the second rope and followed up with his finisher on Knox, but Swagger broke up the pin attempt. With the referee distracted, Hornswoggle hit the Tadpole Splash on Knox. Finlay hit Knox with the shillelagh while the ref’s head was turned and then scored the pin.

At ringside, the announcers noted that they were already counting down to Halloween… Backstage, Teddy and Tiffany were wearing costumes. Jamie Noble entered the room and flirted with Tiffany. Mark Henry and Tony Atlas stormed in and demanded a rematch with Hardy. Noble mouthed off, so Henry asked for a match against Noble. “Make it happen".

Look who's coming back! A video hyped the Boogeyman’s return.

Mark Henry (with Tony Atlas) vs. Jamie Noble.

The announcers noted that Henry appeared to be favoring his knee following his No Mercy match with Matt Hardy. Noble got a hope spot, but Henry finished him off with the World’s Strongest Slam. After the match, Henry hit Noble with his finisher two more times. Matt Hardy ran out for the save and the live crowd loved it. Hardy hit the Twist of Fate on Atlas, but turned around and Henry caught him with the World’s Strongest Slam. Henry followed up with two big splashes on Hardy. Henry left both Hardy and Noble lying in the ring.

CM Punk & Evan Bourne & Ricky Ortiz & Kofi Kingston vs. John Morrison & The Miz & Ted Dibiase & Cody Rhodes

Just two minutes into the match, the babyfaces cleared the heels from the ring and the show cut to commercial. The next few minutes of the match were slow as the heels took turns working over Bourne to set up the hot tag. Later, Kofi hit a great springboard flying body press onto a group of heels at ringside. In the ring, Punk hit the high knee on Morrison and set him up for the GTS. Manu climbed onto the apron and distracted Punk. While the ref was bickering with Manu, DiBiase reached in and snapped the back of Punk's head off the ropes. Morrison hit the Moonlight Drive and scored the pin for his team and the victory.
