From wwe.com - Just five days before The Granddaddy of Them All, Superstars got a taste of what’s in store for them Sunday at WrestleMania XXIV.

In addition, 24 other Superstars got a pay-per-view preview. ECW on Sci Fi kicked off with a 24-Man Tag Team Match, featuring all participants of WrestleMania’s 24-Man Battle Royal, which will broadcast exclusively on WWE.com. Sunday’s humongous contest will determine who faces Chavo Guerrero for his ECW Title later that night. Snitsky earned the victory for his team at the expense of Tommy Dreamer, who sprang up from the canvas and wasted no time in challenging Guerrero to a non-title bout later in the night.

The ECW Original wasn't able to prove himself in the main event, as Guerrero hit him with the three-count. Before anyone could leave the ring, each of the 23 other competitors in the 24-Man Battle Royal joined the action in an all-out brawl, suggesting ECW may be a preview that the “Mexican Warrior” should keep in mind in seeing two dozen Superstars hungry for gold.

Whose momentum will carry into The Grandest Stage of Them All? Don’t miss WrestleMania XXIV, Sunday at 6:30/5:30 CT with a special FreeView of the 24-Man Battle Royal, streamed exclusively on WWE.com
