Extreme Championship Wrestling is back in the ring and on Sci Fi Channel. World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. officially launched ECW as a brand extension to its RAW and SmackDown franchises. And Sci Fi announced that it will start airing one-hour episodes of a new ECW live show, set to debut June 13 at 10 p.m. (EST). WWE originally acquired the ECW assets in 2003. It has released three ECW DVDs, produced an ECW pay-per-view event in June 2005 and scheduled another ECW PPV event for June 11. WWE said it will produce, market and promote a full line of ECW products, including television programs, PPV events, live events and licensed consumer goods. “After keeping the ECW concept alive and creating an enormous cult-like following for all things ECW from DVDs to PPV [events] to books, we feel that now the time is right to officially launch ECW as its own stand-alone franchise," WWE chairman Vince McMahon said in a prepared statement. |

It would kinda suck to have it aired after SD. When the WWE is in the west or in non-ECW areas, the crowd heat will be next to none. I also doubt they will be allowed to really cut loose as that could show up the SD roster and I know Vince doesn't want that to happen.

Why does everyone assume that because it's live after the SD tapings that the crowds will be dead? At first, maybe, but it's not like the fans will see these guys wrestle and then just never watch again. After they've been on the air a few weeks and the audience gets introduced to them, there's no reason to think they won't start to embrace these guys like they have their favorite RAW and SD guys.

Not always, but once in a while something new catches on. I find it hard to believe that the markish SD crowd will find nothing worth watching about ECW. All I'm saying is that Paul and Tommy are smart enough to build on that. Obviously, the feel is going to be totally different (at least until the ECW freaks start turning up at the SD tapings), but it's not like wrestling fans have never gotten behind something that went against the status quo.

Maybe it wont be after SD! at all. I'm sure that Paul E and Tommy will handle 95% of the writing and booking... so I'm sure (as a brand extention) they can handle having it at a "house" arena like the Hammerstein or "the old bingo hall" even.

Btw, I'm excited about ECW TV being live. It'll definitely help that "anything can happen" vibe.

I'm just not sure the circles overlap that much, is all. I think ECW almost always marketed to another crowd. My only hope is that folks will follow along in the ECW chants like good little sheep, and watch it to be cool. |

The supershow in Philly in early July will be huge! But, I am still worried by the non-ECW areas in the country. They tend to not react well to new things.

Didn't Harry Slash do a Walk re-do? And I think they used Motorhead's version of Enter Sandman...
Those versions are probably a lot cheaper than the real deals. |

I'm keeping an open mind, and am willing to see how it plays out before i judge it to severly. I'm hoping it will be good and a nice alternative to Raw and Smackdown.

Oh sure, we love Metallica's version, but what about the cover Die Krupps put out? I like that one more than Metallica, because Die Krupps has a deeper voice, giving it a somewhat more creepiness to it.

I still don't understand why they just don't use the small New York arena's instead, and keep velocity also.
Surely the production values of an authentic ECW show aint going to cost that much are they? |

Is there enough depth in the roster to have three reasonable brands, considering the recent injuries and such? I really hope they don't have guys like Van Dam pull double duty with ECW and RAW.

I would have laughed so much if they had the ECW before smackdown tapings. I could see the ECW fans turning up, watching, then leaving the arena empty fo SD.
