Bam! Exactly right. The Rise and Fall of ECW was a very successful DVD, which led to One Night Stand becoming a very successful PPV.
What I love (in a sarcastic, ironic way) about the new ECW, is the way that if anything fails on it, the old ECW gets the blame. December to Dismember was a horrific PPV, mainly because Heyman was not allowed to book the way he wanted to, and had to do the WWE finish of Bobby Lashley overcoming the odds, the smark favourites getting jobbed out, etc. Who got the blame for it? Heyman, of course.
I'm sure that when they decide to dissolve the brand, the justification will be on the ECW name not being strong enough to carry a fanbase. Never mind that the product was never as captivating as fans demanded.
