This is the exact moment I knew Vince was getting what he wanted and it wasn't going to recover:

Yesh those 3 moments are pretty much it for where WWECW went downhill. Like with WCW, Vince being terrible managing the brand's name drove original ECW fans away in droves for good.

RVD getting busted for drugs while champ shelved whatever the original plans were going to be.

Big Show was actually a pretty great heel champ in WWECW but Vince was moronic for doing the Batista match at the Hammerstein Ballroom and expecting the crowd to react the way he wanted.

Vince forcing Bobby Lashley to be the one to dethrone Big Show at December to Dismember was pretty much the final nail. After that WWECW is pretty much whatever Vince feels like for direction and focus.
