A statement on the original ECW

**Mr. Nerfect** · 04-26-2010, 04:28 AM

Alright, I've read the rumours that TNA is interesting in doing something like this now, because the 18-34 year old demographic still has positive feelings towards the original ECW. Instead of creating a faction of ECW guys, though, I would rather they just took on a more ECW approach. Or let Heyman write.

I'm not opposed to Heyman as an on-air character. I'm not opposing to RVD being managed by him, or even Team 3D being his on-air friends. Rhino would fit, too. Wasn't he recently on good terms with Team 3D? But don't just limit it to old ECW guys trying to re-live the glory days. There needs to be something "fresh" about it all. That's what made the original ECW original in the first place. RVD as the cocky "I'll take on anyone because I'm fucking amazing" character could work again. But if you put Team 3D with him, then let Jesse Neal enter the group, too, because he's on good terms with them.

I just think they need Heyman writing, and let some original stuff flow that can connect with what the audience wants to see.
