Remember though, this isn't ECW in the bingo hall full of nothing but ECW faithful-rabid fans. This is ECW taped in arena's before Raw/Smackdown. If you think the reactions were mixed and unique before, imagine the fans reaction to a Cena that has told WWE fans to kiss his ass...with ECW loyals in attendance that hate his guts to begin with. I want to see this happen mostly to see how die hard WWE/Cena loyal fans would react. Well....basically let me just ask them. Hey Vermaat, what would your reaction be to Cena if this happens. Also, in your opinion (did I just say that), how do you think the WWE/Cena loyals would react to him?
IMO, I think it would be a great move by Vince if he is serious about having ECW being successful in the ratings and having some longevity. For starters, arenas will be sold out regardless...ECW/Raw/Smackdown taped in the same arena. Secondly, Cena jumping ship to ECW would automatically draw in WWE viewers who like Cena to watch the ECW/Sci Fi experience. Normally, those fans might not ever care to watch ECW, so ratings would be much higher. Raw will probably draw the same ratings. I can't see ratings dropping, because ECW isn't competing on Monday nights with Raw. Cena's merchandise might take a hit, but it might not because alot of fans that have grown to despise Cena may like him again with a changed attitude...and move set.
Plus, if the rumored ending of the Roster Split is true, there's no way in hell that this Super-Cena routine is gonna fly with all the WWE talent on one roster and one show.

Devalue? You want to talk about "devaluing" the WWE and WWE World Title? For one, there's been nothing in recent memory that WWE has done that has "devalued" their World Titles/Championships more than the current story lines and champions. We all know the scenerio on the Smackdown show. But come on Vermaat. Having a champ with a shred of the wrestling moves, talent and experience
constantly winning and going over Hall of Fame calibur opponents, overcoming ridiculous/unrealistic odds TIME AND TIME AGAIN (see, I can use all caps too) doesn't "devalue" the WWE World Title?
Your statement reeks of hypocrisy.
