How many are just sick of ECW?
 
You just can't even watch it? You get irritible. You get stomach pains. You start having dirareha. You vomit. Poll coming.

HeartBreakMan2k 07-30-2007 05:35 PM

Nope, one of the few I actually will watch.

Xero 07-30-2007 05:36 PM

Aside from the "extreme expose" bullshit, it isn't bad.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-30-2007 05:38 PM

Still easily my fave of the 3 brands.

Mr. Pierre 07-30-2007 05:42 PM

I think it's good most of the time.

Stickman 07-30-2007 05:42 PM

I got bored of it after Big Show left. It really has nothing to do with ECW. It's not hardcore or anything, it's just another 1 hour to fill a week.

Londoner 07-30-2007 05:48 PM

^ Yeah, that's basically what I think. Nothing interesting actually happens.

Mr. Nerfect 07-30-2007 05:59 PM

Easily the best of the WWE three. Not only are their shows actually somewhat entertaining, but they have a bunch of young talent with potential, that are actually getting pushes! John Morrison, crappy name aside, is currently the best World Champion in the company, and CM Punk and Elijah Burke are damn entertaining. Plus, how many shows give their jobber an entertaining upset win, like they did Stevie Richards last week?

Londoner 07-30-2007 06:03 PM

^ They only did that Steve richards win cause 1) they lack faces, 2) Nothing else actually happened.

Anybody Thrilla 07-30-2007 06:08 PM

ECW is the shit, so shut the mother fuck up.

Anybody Thrilla 07-30-2007 06:09 PM

I would've put that more eloquently, but I thought I'd speak in the same terms as the thread starter.

IC Champion 07-30-2007 06:17 PM

TNA>ECW

Bad Company 07-30-2007 06:29 PM

ECW is the best of the 3 brands, kinda went off the rails after bigshow left, as said above. The whole new breed v originals had me pumped up. They kinda killed that. But Burke, Punk etc have been great.

Kane Knight 07-30-2007 06:56 PM

I'msick of WWE right now, so I voted yes. I don't care about ECW, TBH.

Pepsi Man 07-30-2007 07:12 PM

I'm somewhere between the last two options. I don't think it totally sucks, because at least there seems to be more of a focus on wrestling, and also, they still break out Extreme Rules from time to time, which I like.

James Steele 07-30-2007 07:17 PM

ECW is my favorite wrestling show out there right now.

Doesn't really matter why it happened, the fact is it happened.

Besides, nothing really happens on RAW or SmackDown!, and they both lack good faces, yet still you don't see Val Venis and Funaki getting wins.

FourFifty 07-30-2007 07:29 PM

I'd like to see a fourth option.

It's watchable, but I'm not watching it.

Mooияakeя™ 07-30-2007 07:44 PM

I watch it, cos I hope it's gonna get better and better. I do wish they'd put the EXTREME back in the Ecw. It'd be nice to be like before, but that's never gonna happen. But it's just the only way it's gonna attract new viewers / old ones back. I enjoy it, but I can see many peopel jsut thinking "it's another SD and RAW, but with shit wrestlers". Which is way off the mark, but still.

Actually, to attract new viewers, shouldn't it be doing something new?

But if they're new viewers, they won't know something isn't new.

If they were going to watch for that, wouldn't they already be watching, or at least have been watching, however?

BigDaddyCool 07-30-2007 09:50 PM

Stevie Richards just won, how can you be sick of it?

Jordan 07-30-2007 10:57 PM

Big Daddy V is worth watching.

Yes, agreed, but ok, I mean they get their mates and tell 'em "yo watch dis. It's siiiiick" or whatever the fükken idiots would say these days.

St. Jimmy 08-02-2007 12:03 PM

I'm really turning into a John Morrison mark, tbh. I hope Punk starts drinking the Jobber-Sauce and is made to lay down atleast one more time.

Dorkchop 08-02-2007 12:46 PM

I'm not sick of it, I've just barely liked anything I've seen on WWECW. The only things I've enjoyed have pretty much been RVD matches. Thorn is pretty sweet. Same goes for Burke, Punk, *sigh* and even Cor Von somewhat.

It bugs me that all the originals who still have talent are jobbing like mad. I love Little Guido/Nunzio, but he won't really amount to anything as long as he's employed by WWE.

I can't really be sick of something I haven't really liked.

Guido wouldn't amount to anything anywhere.

Balls sucks, and at least he gets tv time.

Stevie is winning.

Tommy Dreamer is in the mainevent most nights.

Those are the four "originals" in ECW. I don't know what they have to complain about, they are getting a regular pay check, and half of them are getting a push on ECW.

Then you have Sandman, who is getting air time on Raw

So by my estimates, 60% of the originals are getting pushes or being featured in a good light. And if you wanted to get techincal, Sandman and Tommy are the only 2 originals that are actively wrestling in WWE. So 100% are getting a push.

Slow 08-02-2007 04:30 PM

I'm happy to watch ECW, matt striker is funny to watch, kevin thorn is an interesting prospect, john morrison, who looks strangely similar to johnny nitro is as been said before the best champion, and tommy dreamer is always good to watch, just for the nostalgia, and brooke and kelly kelly are just great to watch

All in all, ECW = Good viewing

Jordan 08-02-2007 04:36 PM

ECW is kinda like Raw back when it was an hour. I really think Smackdown and Raw would be better off as one hour shows.

Mooияakeя™ 08-02-2007 04:39 PM

Kills me watching RAW live, you get so many breaks. Every bloody 15 mins or something stupid. and cos it's like 2am here when it starts, I sometimes jsut collapse and sleep. So whilst we don't et ECW live, that's one thing I don't miss. Speaking of which it's on tonight at 12am! :) YAY!

I pretty much don't watch ECW, but I agree actually. It seemed like every time I watched ECW, every original was jobbing out. I saw Stevie win, and RVD a few times. When I watched it looked like WWE was pushing guys who sucked on Raw and Smackdown in ECW.

ECW is better now than it was 6 months ago. I still think it pretty much sucks.

Boondock Saint 08-02-2007 10:23 PM

I saw the first episode, with "The Zombie." or whatever. It sucked. Then I read they were going to have rules and shit, so I haven't bothered since.

mrslackalack 08-02-2007 10:38 PM

ECW is a decent show.

mrslackalack 08-02-2007 10:40 PM

Last Week the ECW thread outdid the RAW thread.
