Ok guy I know someone has to feel the same way I feel about this crap! Putting A PG rating on ECW is like mixing Oil with a whole freakin tub of H2O. Not gonna happen vince... Sorry buddy but the fact that you are losing most of you talent is the way you always try to change someone or something into what its not. I mean having 3 show plus PPV & on some months SNME. You have all this time & you still don't have the know how to use it. There are many ways to try and make everyone happy. Not all of you fans like seeing John Cena write poopy all over a long horned limo!

This is a perfect time to make ECW everything that it can be. The Attitude that we all really really need at this point of time.

Give the kids there Fake Marine...Nike where'in...Hollywood wanna be!!! Who can't salute right!! [cOOl]

BUT LEAVE US ARE ECW!!! [taBle] [RvD]

I still kept a glimmer of hope alive up until they ditched Joey in favor of Adamle. That was the exact moment I gave up the ghost and I'm surprised I hung in there that long.

I don't even think of this ECW show as "ECW" anymore. It's just Heat with a belt.

Sad but true.

A Heat with a belt ... sad but true, you're right dude !

but I still think there is hope for ECW, I've said it before and I'll say it again !!!!!!!!

[taBle] BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL ECW !!!!!!!!! [taBle]

Why do you put talbes, ladders, chairs, trash can, signs, and even a kitchen sink under the ring if you don't use it ?!
Please someone tell Vince to be more.....EXTREME ?!


I'm pretty sure that if they would bring back the true ECW style, the ratings would explode for ECW !!!

ECW will never be like it was when Heyman was running it. Get over it.

Want to prove a point to WWE? Find as many people as you can who own Nielson boxes and tell them to watch ECW when glimmers of the old promotion are shown, and then change the channel when it's "Heat with a belt". It's getting better ratings now than it did in the "good old days", like it or not. Better ratings than TNA even.

Here's something to get over dude. Just to get notice at that time when there where not only 1 big brand but 2! WWF/WCW. Is worth saying something about. This PG rated crap has 1 mediocre wrestling group & your saying that's worth something. I bet Your a John Cena fan aswell. LMAO!! [cOOl]

Am I the only one seeing Matt Sydal tear it up every week? Am I the only one who's seeing solid-to-good matches just about every week on ECW? Just because there's no naked bitches, bloody bodies flying through tables and weapons flying all over, doesn't mean it's not a good show. It's not great, but it isn't bad neither.

Also, I was watching ECW back when Benoit and Malenko were there. I read about Benoit breaking Sabu's neck in an old Bill Apter mag. I had to see that stuff after reading that. I had to stay up until 2 AM to see it, but I did and I loved it. Believe me, I am/was a hardcore ECW fan. I just have no problem recognizing that the ECW as everyone knew it is dead. Just be happy it's still a solid wrestling show.

I wouldn't say I'm a Cena fan. I honestly don't think he's as bad as alot of people like to think he is. I mean, dude has had some amazing matches. I think he's pretty corny alot of the time though, in promos and what-not.

I think the show is hit or miss, most weeks, just like any other wrestling show. Week before last was a Great (almost phenomenal) Show. Last week, not too bad.

Like I said before, the moment Joey was canned I let that last little microscopic sliver of hope die...thus ending my lamenting the loss of "naked bitches and bloody bodies" etc. Focus on the positives(Sydal/Bourne), make fun of the negatives (until recently, Adamle).

I see it as "Heat with a belt" because it serves the same function as Heat once did: give new stars some TV time with established stars, thus giving them a chance to grow. The second they start REALLY getting over...whisk them off to RAW or SmackDown (ala Kofi) or still call them ECW stars but mostly showcase them on one of the big two.

The biggest positive I can see for ECW is they pack a lot of wrestling into the scant 45-47 minutes they're alotted every week.

The biggest negative I can see is that the brand doesn't really have an identity, therefore the fans don't have anything to figuratively hold in their hands and say "This is ECW".

No, it's not a great show but it's also doesn't suck. For pure, 100%, unadulturated suckage...simply tune in to TNA: the wrestling equivalent to a glory hole (only minus the glory).

As far as Cena goes, my thoughts on him are elsewhere on this board in some "Cena Sucks" (or otherwise cleverly titled) thread. To quickly recap: I don't think he sucks. With the right opponent (HBK), he looks almost great sometimes. Love him or loathe him, you have to recognize and respect his obvious passion for the business. He's not there for the smarks, he's there for the kids. While the crowd reaction is split between cheers and boos, the truth is that it's the loudest reaction of the night on most shows. Until he's met with silence and/or indifference, he's going to be a top star. Deal with it.

...and having said that, the Cena v. Batista feud blows harder than a developmental talent in Dave Lagana's office.

LMAO!! I have to say I really don't hate John himself. Mostly his Cheese ass *You can't see...My WeeNy* character. I'm sure if they turned him Heel I would in joy him alot more. Because someone that is just naturally Cocky should be a heel. I play a cocky cowboy in the ring & the only way that character works is doing half the crap that John Cena does. Show off during every move, punk my opponent out, slap them in the face. If you think about it. it's perfect for Cena. I'm i wrong?

I agree that Cena would be better going back to a heel role, but he's getting too much of a reaction as a face. Turning him heel would flush all the kiddie dollars down the shitter. Once merch sales for him slow way down, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest to see him turned heel.
