ECW could have done a better business if they didn't have so much stacked against them. I mean, a deal on the Nashville Network didn't help a whole lot. "If people wanted to watch, they would seek it out." That's a stupid statement, considering that everybody knew about ECW, when obviously they didn't. They got little to no promotion, a crap timeslot on Friday nights, and their tv show was censored worse than WWE's. Their was definately a market for the ECW brand though. For instance, I had a few friends who hated wrestling, and thought it was corny. I showed them a few ECW tapes, and they loved the renegade style, with the rock music and hardcore layout. When Vince was coming up, he didn't have to compete with a huge corporate comglomerate (sp?). Comparing the two cases (Vince/Heyman) is stupid.
