I agree with you. A real competitor would be better.

But where's that gonna come from?

NWA-TNA has similar booking problems to the WWE, and was starting to look like latter day WCW last couple times I watched. If nobody wanted to pick up the real WCW, why would they want a knockoff version?

I'd be tickled pink if the WWE could book a promotion properly.

Fuck that, if Heyman was running a promotion backed by the WWE, I'd start humping vince's leg.

If they bring back an ECW, they need to reform these guys with Dawn. I wasn't a huge ECW fan back then, but I tuned in every week when it was on to see what these guys were up too. They were awesome.

Heyman's problem was that he didn't know how to control money. If that is taken out of his hands, it could work. One problem though is that Paul Heyman fucked over many of the boys in ECW at the end and how many people could trust him again?

I would be akin to at least seeing what they could do with it, though. From what I'm seeing, if they can remove some of the things saying that it is only a WWE ripoff (i.e. the WWE logo doesn't come up on the bottom left screen corner, or the WWE intros at the beginning and end of the show), and actually look like it was low budget, then I guess that it could work. It would actually take the place of Confidential (which is getting AWFUL numbers), so that would be a plus for them, and plus, they would have a decent lead-in in Velocity if that ends up happening (would help Velocity, as well). I'm interested in this myself, and hope it happens. Sorry that I had to disagree with the majority here, but I really am interested to see what happens here.

Probably would happen too. Plus, I'd like to see Taz wrestle instead of Tazz comentate. RVD, Dudleys, Rhyno, Lance would all have something to do, and like it was already suggested, bring back some of the ECW alumni that have escaped to NWA TNA. People like Raven, Justin Credible, Jerry Lynn. And just to make some of the guys here cream, imagine AJ Styles vs Rob Van Dam for the ECW Championship.

Would be but when ECW at it's best did lower ratings than WCW at it's worse then it certainly don't look too likely.

It'd be cool to see who is the better tag team champs of the two brands or who is the better heavyweight champ. It'd make a big cluster**ck out of the two shows, with guys from each show showing up at both places all the time, but if it only lasted a month it'd be worth it. Plus it'd give more value to the PPV of the preceding months, with guys fighting that much harder to be the ones to represent their brands.
