It’s the July 4th, 2006 episode of WWE ECW on Sci-Fi and everything is fine… or is it?! Rob Van Dam won the WWE and ECW Championship at ECW One Night Stand 2. He was on top of the world. Until he was traveling from a show in West Virginia to Philadelphia with Sabu on July 1st. RVD was pulled over for speeding! They would both be arrested for possession of marijuana. This would cause RVD’s world to come crashing down. On RAW the night before this episode, he would lose the WWE Championship to Edge in a triple threat match involving John Cena. Tonight will be the infamous match with The Big Show. At the start of the show The Big Show went up to Paul Heyman and demanded an ECW title match. Rob Van Dam would later accept this challenge by walking into Big Show’s locker room and slapping him in the face. As the match happened, Paul Heyman came down and screwed RVD out of the title. The Big Show would become WWE ECW Champion and fans would litter the ring with trash. A true Philly Riot. Also, Kelly Kelly dances, Mike Knox wrestles, Test debuts against Al Snow, CM Punk cuts his first promo and a strange vampire is outside the area. Plus, the DEADLOCK Q&A is back.
