John Goodman's Ass (2010)

John Goodman's Ass was held on September 9, 2010. The show was highlighted by Dynamite Derek defending the World Heavyweight Championship in a Hardcore Triple Threat match against Rob Van Dam and Kurt Angle, Ultimate Warrior putting the WWE Championship on the line against Disco Drew, Nature Ben, and Hogan 80's in a Fatal 4-Way match, and the Intercontinental Championship match between defending champion Shawn Michaels and "Macho Man" Randy Savage.

Background
World Champion Dynamite Derek recently voiced his love for ECW. With that, there was a 30 man ECW alumni Royal Rumble was established featuring stars from the company and brand combined with the winner receiving a shot at the World title at the next pay per view. However, it was number 30 entrant Kurt Angle who wound up with the victory when he dumped Mankind over the top rope with great ease. Shortly after winning, Angle said that this victory may have been the easiest of his life. He went on further by stating that he showed everyone tonight why ECW the company and ECW the brand were both failures, they both lost Kurt Angle. Now, it will be a battle of the heroes as the superhero Dynamite Derek defends his World Heavyweight gold against the Olympic hero Kurt Angle. The wrestling machine versus the mean bean machine. Who will prevail in this test of athleticism?

Upon hearing what Kurt Angle had to say, Rob Van Dam told Angle that ECW never needed him to be successful. He continued by telling Angle that he can prove that by defeating him with the World title on the line at John Goodman's Ass. Angle accepted making this a Triple Threat match! Defending champion Dynamite Derek was quoted as being butthurt about not having a say in his own title defense. He was even more displeased when he was told that it will be contested under Hardcore rules.
