The Lessons Learned in ECW Do Not Apply to the WWE

I loved ECW. I think Paul Heyman is awesome. The only wrestler I love more than Taz is the Miz and that applies only to character and not in-ring ability. I lived in Florida and was lucky enough to see ECW live twice. I met Dawn Marie and marked the fuck out. I have chanted "E-C-DUB".

Even if ECW had not gone bankrupt, ECW would never have emerged as true competition to McMahon or the WWE. WWE at its most edgey was still geared towards the main-stream and has always been about making a profit. ECW was never on the same scale as the WWE and never would have been. Things that worked for ECW would not necessarily work to the same extent in the WWE. Regardless of what you think of WWE programming it works and is making money.

Also, TNA is not the new ECW. They had a chance to be 5 years ago but, now they're just TNA.


It's time to make TPWW MEAT again!

Quote:
Unlike traditional grills which cook food from a single, direct heat source, the Pit Barrel® Cooker’s cylindrical shape and “Hook-and-Hang” method places the food in the center of the action, heating the meat from all sides at once, producing consistently great-tasting, perfectly cooked meat every time.

Also have some popcorn.

I agree about TNA hell I wouldn't even compare TNA to WCW because TNA sucks on all accounts right now.


I wish I could have went to an ECW show.

As cool as ECW was i agree the lessons learned cannot apply to WWE because it was simply to different companies, one small and one huge one.

I am glad TNA didnt become the new ECW, because it should try its best to be TNA, make its own mark on the industry. But they can certainly learn a lesson or two from the original ECW promotion.

ECW left an indeliable mark on the industry and honestly it should be left that way now.

While I agree with your premise, if ECW had the finacial backing of WCW, I think it would be around today.

Did a thread need to be made about this? ECW died years ago.
