DISCUSSION - Would the WWE, and Edge, benefit from an E&C re-union? (a la DX style?)

[Rammsteinmad]

I think an Edge & Christian reunion would be great, but not right now.

Edge has just won the Rumble and is obviously doing his own thing right now, and with ECW ending soon Christian has had an amazing run as ECW Champ which will hopefully lead to a good push on Smackdown.

My main concern for a reunion is that it'd be too similar to DX. Whilst seeing E&C together again, after a week or two it'd be no different than the pranks etc DX were pulling, only if E&C ever face DX we all know who'd come out of that match the winner.

Maybe a one-night thing, and then just have them be allies afterwards would be pretty cool (which is pretty much what you suggested). But a full return right now wouldn't work. For me anyway.

Good post. Here are a few of my thoughts:

1) I think Christian being 'aligned' with the 'top dawg' on Smackdown would only help his cause...atleast for the time being.

2) While E&C could be way too similar to DX, is that necessarily a bad thing? Keep in mind - that the WWE's main audience are kids around the age of 12. As much as most of us dislike the current DX, their merchandise, etc. are selling like hotcakes for the 8-12 year old demographic. If DX go their seperate ways, then E&C could easily fill that gap.

Between now and Wrestlemania, I would keep Edge by himself. I particularly liked redoneja's idea in the other thread, where he suggested that Edge be a 'tweener' type guy. After Wrestlemania, the WWE can then explore the idea of E&C re-aligning.
