personally i dont think anything by ECW would be able to have a diffrent program, wCw was just a WWE Rip off anyway, it didnt have anything really diffrent, ECW has the Hardcore style, and TNA has its Cruiserweight/X devision being a major highlight. so if you dont like WWE right now, TNA has (from what i have heard) signed with Spike for after WWE leaves to the USA network... odd that Spike would not re-sign WWE but then signs TNA...

I just wish they would bring back the hardcore division. Not a totally different show though. They don't need to spread the talent even thinner between shows becuase it's hurting them now as it is.

I don't think WWE should bring in one of those "ripoff company's anyway". wCw wanted to be a mix between WWE and Mexican wrestling. wCw was mostly old guys and no-name losers anyway.
And for the love of all that is holy and pure they should not bring back extremely crappy wrestling. It is a crappy version of Japanese and Pueto Rican Wrestling anyway. Check out wrestling from them two nations if you like hardcore, they do it right.
A chair shot should not be booring, but damn, ECW Managed to do it anyway.

personally, i want to see them bring back WCW. so they can put the worthless talent on there like MNM and Viscera. then they can move people like Val Venis back up to raw and not heat.

Why would they bring back WCW and not have WCW talent on there ? The reason I and probably most people would want to see those back are for the nostalgic factor and seeing their past wcw favorites in the ring against each other again , not just a show to useless guys on. That wouldn't work at bringing in money or viewers which is the only reason Vince would do it like he did with the ECW ppv.

Kujo the reason to put the new people on the WCW shows would be talent development. i can remember back to when i used to look forward to smackdown and there wasnt a brand split. if they moved all of the former WCW talent back to WCW the newer viewers would remember them as their WWE characters (since all of them have changed from WCW to WWE). An example would be rey mysterio unmasked and a rapper with K-Dogg as part of the Filthy Animals in WCW, and now masked again begging eddie not to torture his son.

there definately does not need to be an ecw or wcw. It would just spread talent even further (as previously mentioned) and would result in the same crappy storylines in a new setting. The best thing would be to reunite the brands or maybe switch up the writers between the shows so that smackdown gets some respect again. If they keep putting all their talent (creative and wrestling) smackdown will remain second rate and will lead people into asking to get another show back.
Oh and MNM does not suck. Just because they are heel doesnt mean they aren't great wrestlers with awesome mic skills. However, Big Vis does suck. he is the flavor of the week because he hs a semi amusing gimmick, but was done better by mark henry.

falcon522 i dont know about you but i would rather see Val Venis out there fighting Carlito and taking that IC belt back instead or Animal/Heindrich fighting MNM. I guess Animal is a legend but he hasnt continuously been there like the Undertaker. They are making Undertaker look like Kane when he first debuted, losing almost every match hes in. If i were Undertaker i wouldnt show up like him either because it would be a waste of time. It was like the Lesnar/Holly thing when Lesnar went to SD every night he was supposed to to fight Hardcore Holly.

I would rather see carlito vs val, since i hate that animal is getting pushed just because he is a legend, when they could be pushing a great tag team like MNM. Now, Val is a great wrestler but his gimmick is stale, its been so since he was a part of RTC. I know he has thr charisma and the talent to be a bigger star, but it seems like he likes being in the place he is. He seem really willing to help younger talent get over by jobbing to them, and hes probably quite helpful backstage too. Plus carlito is still way cooler than him and would be able to beat him, anyway .
