Title: The Zombie Appreciation Thread
Mad Dog - June 14, 2006 05:51 AM (GMT)
This thread is to talk about the greatest wrestler on the ECW roster... the Zombie. I'll start us off:
He cut a better promo than RVD.
jamiegeist - June 14, 2006 06:48 AM (GMT)
I saw this one coming from a mile away. Can't wait till DK gets on.

Better worker than Justin Tolerable

If Sandman was intelligent, he would've focused his attacks to Zombie's head, since that's the only way to kill a Zombie.
They should do an angle where Zombie bites other wrestlers and they start a zombie stable. I'd be entertained.
Real F'n Show - June 14, 2006 03:51 PM (GMT)
I was expecting that stripper to be bit by him or something...
dynamite kido - June 14, 2006 06:31 PM (GMT)
Oh, there's no doubt who my new favorite wrestler in the world is.
I loved how they made him get up and actually get his ass beat all the way to the back. They should just make him the jobber thats easy to beat, but never quits. They could show him attack Sandman at a bar somewhere in like a month and just say that he was still pissed about the beating.
GREATEST. GIMMICK. EVER.

Dead serious. That's fucking genius.
Mad Dog - June 14, 2006 06:38 PM (GMT)
Someone on another board had a brilliant idea. The Zombie should multiple every week because a single zombie isn't a threat, it's the horde that gets you.
dynamite kido - June 14, 2006 06:43 PM (GMT)
Yep. I swear to god, Heyman should let me book him.
Mad Dog - June 14, 2006 06:43 PM (GMT)
They need to bring back the Yeti.

Zombie and Big Huckin' Chicken (you are big and you are chicken) were within two minutes of each other. In the words of Jack Wagner, that's All I Need.

I was wondering why they called it "Huckin" when before in the adds it was "buckin".
Maybe it had to do with the change in theme of the commercial, but I didn't get the "huckin" part if it did.
But yeah, that may have been the 4 greatest mintues of TV EVER.
eStragand - June 14, 2006 10:19 PM (GMT)
From a marketing standpoint, "buckin" sounds too much like "bucket". I was at a Mets ST game when the commercial came on over the scoreboard. Two guys behind me said: "what was that?" "big bucket chicken, I guess". You think of bucket chicken, you think of KFC, not Burger King.
Also, someone had already registered the domain name "buckinchicken.com". So get out there and register "fuckinchicken.com"!
It works either way..and that song rocks. You can use it for anything in everyday life. Big tube of toothpaste? "Big...huuuuckin' toothpaste. You are big...and you are toothpaste".

WOW. I'm astonished at this. Not because you mentioned it, but because I actually do that.
Mad Dog - June 15, 2006 12:42 AM (GMT)
I want the Burger King king to become an active ECW wrestler.

That's the third time I've watched it and it becomes more hilarious every time.
jamiegeist - June 15, 2006 03:08 AM (GMT)
I thought it was Big Cluckin Chicken? Am I just totally fucked?
eStragand - June 15, 2006 05:11 AM (GMT)
Hee hee...if you say it right, it sounds like you're saying "big FUCKIN' Chicken". See... cluckin, huckin of buckin sond like fuckin!! OMG, WTF, LOL, LMAO, ROTFLMAOWIMTSK!!!!!!!!
The Votes are in:
Zombie vs. Sandman: Match of the Year
Mad Dog - June 15, 2006 05:36 AM (GMT)
We should remain the board to Da Zombie Wrestling Board.
jamiegeist - June 15, 2006 06:14 AM (GMT)
What's the estimated shelf life of the Zombie love? It is pretty awesome that it is easily the most over thing of the entire show. Everyone should chant for the Zombie at ECW events.

eStragand - June 15, 2006 05:41 PM (GMT)
Even better...it should be the BOARD LOGO!!!
Mad Dog - June 15, 2006 05:51 PM (GMT)
Yes, that logo is awesome!!!
Big F'N Swigg - June 15, 2006 05:53 PM (GMT)
If we don't use that logo, I'm disappointed
SamoaRowe - June 15, 2006 05:55 PM (GMT)
I agree on the Zombie logo, it's wonderful. It would increase pride in this board :D
Real F'n Show - June 15, 2006 05:56 PM (GMT)
SamoaRowe - June 15, 2006 05:58 PM (GMT)
Zombie is the greatest newcomer. I mean, seriously, who else could've done that "RAAAARRR" promo while keeping a straight face and not cracking up?
eStragand - June 15, 2006 06:34 PM (GMT)
Zombie's been incredibly popular EVERYWHERE (Well, except in real-life conversations with real people). The scary part is that WWE might realize this unexpected popularity and try to play it up, killing the joke dead within a month.
Oh yeah...another board mentioned that he looked like Kerry Von Erich! That's both hilarious and WRONG! (I was actually thinking Terry Gordy...)
S.T. Strickler - June 15, 2006 09:08 PM (GMT)
So now The Zombie is now a cult favorite.. Careful guys, next thing you know there'll be the zWo: Zombie World Order.

Effective with the world premiere of ECW on Sci Fi, ECW.com has asked me to choose a weekly ECW MVP (Most Valuable Player) or, in my words, an ECW MEP (Most Extreme Player).
This week’s ECW M.E.P. is without question The Zombie. The Zombie’s riveting entrance, intensity and pre-match interview embodied everything I have come to expect from sports-entertainment.
The Zombie immediately made this lifelong wrestling fan conjure up images of such other sports-entertainment greats as Max Moon, The Goon and The Gobbledygooker.
Unfortunately, former 5-time ECW World Heavyweight Champion, The Sandman, did not find The Zombie nearly as entertaining as did I and summarily caned the undead sports-entertainer repeatedly before quickly pinning The Zombie after his signature White Russian Leg Sweep.
Runner-up honors go to new ECW “exhibitionist”, Kelly, who I deemed ineligible when she failed to unhook her bra. |

Uh oh... WORK. I smell an angle where the "true ECW guys" are fighting off the "sports-entertainment" invaders forced on them by the WWF.
Real F'n Show - June 15, 2006 11:03 PM (GMT)
See, THAT would make the show so much better.
Mad Dog - June 15, 2006 11:34 PM (GMT)
Yeah, but it doesn't work when the sports entertainment things are more memorable.
I think they should go all out with the Sci-Fi stuff and just ditch the ECW guys. I want aliens fighting zombies and spider creatures abducting strippers on a weekly basis damn it.
eStragand - June 19, 2006 05:31 AM (GMT)
Just wanted t bump this up for the new week...
After all, this IS the thread that won't die
*rimshot*
(thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week!)
wordtoyourmother - June 20, 2006 04:08 AM (GMT)
Since I'm officially here, I figured what better way to introduce myself than show you the fantasy ECW feud I wrote out at another forum.
WEEK 2
Sandman does his whole shabang where he comes out the club the shit out of someone when suddenly the Zombie comes out from the back. Sandman is like WTF and goes to club the Zombie, but this time a SECOND zombie comes from behind Sandman. Sandman tries to fend them off with his cane and manages to knock them both down.
WEEK 3
Sandman cuts a promo on the fact that ECW is not hardcore at all. He calls out guys like Big Show and Angle and says that Sabu is the only thing ECW has to offer. Suddenly, THREE zombies come out from underneath the ring and start attacking Sandman. Sandman manages to fend them off again, but is a little bloody and it appears one of the zombies has bitten Sandman.
WEEK 4
The main Zombie comes out and cuts a promo on whoever when Tommy Dreamer comes out and begins blasting on the Zombie. Several other Zombies come out and Dreamer begins fending them off until Sandman's music hits. From the rafters comes Sandman, but he's not doing his normal beer drinking bit. He enters the ring and Dreamer is all happy that Sandman's there until Sandman goes after Dreamer. Everyone isn't very shocked as Sandman turns out to be a Zombie. The other Zombies have taken to Sandman as their leader. Dreamer bails the ring, leaving the Zombies walking out after him to the back.
WEEK 5
Dreamer rounds up some ECW regulars like Balls Mahoney and Stevie Richards saying that they have to stop the Zombie problem from spreading in ECW. Dreamer says that he can save the Sandman. Dreamer and the ECW guys go to the depths of the arena with weapons as they fend off dozens of Zombies. Finally Dreamer finds Sandman. Dreamer tries to talk sense into the Sandman, but the Sandman is full blown Zombie by this point. Dreamer retreats with his ECW men saying the only way to kill a Zombie is to burn it, so at the next show it'll be Dreamer v. Zombie Sandman in an Inferno Match.
WEEK 6
Sandman and Dreamer have their match. The Zombies gather around the ring, but don't go in because of the flames. Dreamer beats Sandman by lighting him on fire. The Zombies carry their leader to the back to see what they can do. Meanwhile, Dreamer is left in the ring as Balls, Richards and Beulah come out and celebrate. However, Dreamer has been bitten and at this point there is no cure. The only way to prevent him from becoming a Zombie is to light himself on fire. Dreamer jumps in the flames and ends the Zombie epidemic...
FOR NOW!
Big F'N Swigg - June 20, 2006 04:14 AM (GMT)
So what's the difference between regular Sandman & Zombie Sandman?
