Hes baaaack. The Big Red Monster returned to ECW on Syfy Tuesday to help kick off the first night of ECW Homecoming Qualifying Matches, per Tiffanys orders. Kane faced Zack Ryder, who was again joined at ringside by his latest love interest, Rosa Mendes. But the Divas presence didnt exactly bring the Long Island, N.Y., Superstar much luck, as the powerful Kane bulldozed through his opponent, sealing his fate with a chokeslam, moving on in The ECW Homecoming.
Next week, former ECW Champion Jack Swagger returns to the Land of the Extreme to face ECWs newest sensation, Yoshi Tatsu in an ECW Homecoming Qualifying Match. Both Superstars will vie for the chance at an ECW Championship Match at Royal Rumble. Who will prevail and move on to the Over-the-Top Rope Challenge?
Ezekiel Jackson def. Vladimir Kozlov (ECW Homecoming Qualifying Match) (PHOTOS | WATCH)
In the first-ever ECW Homecoming Qualifying Match, Vladimir Kozlov competed against his estranged Ruthless Roundtable associate, Ezekiel Jackson. In mere minutes, their leader, William Regal, turned on The Moscow Mauler, hooking his leg, allowing Big Zeke to hit Kozlov with a Yurinagi for the victory, advancing in The ECW Homecoming. After the match, Kozlov attacked Regal, but Jackson intervened and he and Regal threw their former comrade into the ECW announce table. Now that Regal has sided with Jackson, who can Kozlov trust? How will Regal attempt to help Jackson earn an ECW Championship Match at Royal Rumble?
The Hurricane def. The Ripper (PHOTOS | WATCH)
Good prevailed in the Land of the Extreme, as The Hurricane defeated The Ripper, earning some retribution in the process. The Ripper recently attacked The Hurricane during his match against Zack Ryder on WWE Superstars. But on Tuesday night, before The Hurricane bested The Ripper with a Shining Wizard for the victory, he unmasked his evil opponent to reveal his identity as Paul Burchill, as his sister, Katie Lea (aka The Beautiful Nightmare), looked on. Thus, neither Burchill nor The Ripper earned an ECW contract. Afterward, Gregory Helms met the devastated Burchills in the locker room area. (WATCH)
