Big Storylines That Could Have Been So Much Bigger?

You do know that ECW had a following (for a time) for it to return and nobody gave a shit about WCW, right?

I agree WCW should have stayed around at least as kayfabe competition but not for the reasons you posted. And I certainly don't think it would have faired better than an ECW resurrection that was cool the first two times and then died as a weekly show. But WCW wouldn't have even had that going in.

Keep in mind ECW was just a reason to have a C-Show, so it got the shaft anyway. Probably would've been smart to rebrand Smackdown as WCW but it's too late now.
