If they tone it down any more, we're going to have nothing but thumb wrestling and catfights.
Seriously, I wonder how stupid they must be to believe there's any confusion.
"WWE wrestlers on ECW? WTFFFFFFF? THESE ARE DIFFERENT COMPANIES!"
I mean, the 5 minute promos for the Marine, the replays of Raw and Smackdown happenings, the homecoming interpromotional matches, the presence at the upcoming PPV...
Next thing they're going to tell me is "Velocity" drew low ratings because it was mistaken for Antique Roadhouse.
No, ECW is doing "poorly" because it's on Sci Fi, a channel which normally draws 1 ratings at best, is associated with nerds, and leads into ECW with Eureka. And that's ignoring the fact that oldschool ECW fans are probably unimpressed and it'll be hard to lure in new fans with the ECW brand name...
...ECW was very much a "love it or hate it" sort of thing.
