ECW on Sci-Fi Opener:[/u]
The ECW Opening aired, and they went to ringside in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where Joey Styles and Tazz pointed out that Big Show would defend the ECW Title against The Sandman tonight.
In the arena:[/u]
Oklahoma's own Jim Ross was then introduced as tonight's "special guest". Ross came to the ring to the Oklahoma fight song, and said it was great to be in Oklahoma. JR thanked Tazz and Styles for inviting him to the show, which resulted in Tazz and Styles each claiming they hadn't, wondering if the other had invited him. Ross was comparing ECW to Mid South Wrestling, when he was interrupted by Matt Striker. Striker took the mic from JR, and said he had been sent out by Paul Heyman to "educate" Jim Ross. Striker said that he was a New York City school teacher, and that Ross and all the fans "lacked education".
Striker ripped on JR for being a "blue collar man" that enjoyed "alcoholic beverages". The Sandman came out, and Striker backed off. Striker looked to JR for help, but got none, and Sandman hit Striker in the gut with his cane. Sandman then offered JR the cane, and Ross took it and hit Striker across the back with it, to a big pop. Striker ran off, and Sandman gave Ross a beer. Ross toasted "the next ECW World Champion", Sandman, and the two chugged a beer together.

Kelly Kelly interrupted, and noticing the "four aces" tattoo on his arm, started talking about Extreme Strip Poker. Kelly said she can't get into casinos because she is 19, and wondered if Punk would help her practice for the game. Mike Knox interrupted, asking Kelly (rhetorically) if he wasn't enough man for her. Knox asked Punk if he had his own woman, and Punk said he did, but that Knox shouldn't be concerned with his. Punk delivered a great line about how "the fence" Knox builds around Kelly isn't high enough, "because she keeps jumping into my yard". Knox said he had to straighten out Kelly, and Punk was lucky he didn't have time for him now. Punk didn't back down, noting he'd be waiting for him.
