Its been 5 Years now since Extreme Championship Wrestling closed its doors. And we thought it was for good. The Wrestlers have gone there Seperate ways. Some of the more popular stars retained fame in the now bankrupt Xtreme Pro Wrestling. Others went to the quickly growing Total Nonstop Action (Which I Happen to enjoy), others have gained major sucess in wwe, But some have stayed to work the indy circuts... Rhyno, has gained main event status in Tna, Winning the Nwa World Heavyweight title (So Did Raven). Rhyno also got the privlage of wrestling in the main event of Tna's Lockdown Pay Per View alongside Sting. Super Crazy, has been paired with Psicosis to become a fan popular under utilized tag team named the Mexicools (Idk why they dont do more with them Armageddon 2005 was a great testamant to tag team wrestling when The Mexicools Fought MNM) Tommy Dreamer went on to hold WWE's Hardcore title and made some kind of NY Lisence plate belt. He Also Caned the shit out of the 2003 Royal Rumble in boston (Good Night Lemme tell ya). Balls Mahoney And Axl Rotten Wrestled the Indy Circut and Hardcore Homecoming, But made there WWE Tryout in Worcester Mass on July 12th. Eddie Guerrero (R.I.P) Chris Benoit And Rvd are probably the 3 biggest sucess stories to walk out of Ecw. But if anyone here is getting what im saying is it me or was Taz right when he said that Ecw was really the land of the misfit toys? Does it seem strange how some of the most innovative, extreme and groundbreaking talents in the world have been passed up for guys like John Cena, Jamie Noble (Nothing against Jamie Noble he can wrestle), The Out of shape Road Warrior (Lod is done pal, stop begging your brother to book you), The Great Kalhi (Wrestlemania 9 makes its return in giant Gonzalses Long lost bastard son) and i hate to say it but the underdog world heavyweight crusierweight midgit mexican champion (Rey Sorry I love you but i feel as if your push was because Of eddies death)? Im sorry but I look at guys like CW Anderson (Who put on the best I quit match in history vs. tommy dreamer at guilty as charged '00'), Sabu(who is the most homicidal,genocidal and suicidal wrestler, also he is jack kavorkians fave wrestler thanks to cactus jack), Tajiri, and the Dudley Boys (who allegedly the WWE had no work for... Kickin yourself in the ass for letting them goto tna now arent ya vince?). With the new Ecw forming I hope deep in my heart that this will be the charge that WWE needs to push the right wrestlers in this brand (and maybe the dudleys will come back I miss sign guy). Mabye this will be that story book ending that we boston baseball fans had in 2004 when the curse was finally reversed! Onward, If I were running this promotion I would start out with a few things.
The Big Evil Business Plan for Ecw:
Location: Stick with areas familiar to Ecw fans. Dont try and sell 18 or 19,000 seats to an Ecw show. Keep it for the real fans.
Hat Guy: Give this guy a contract and sit his ass in the front row at every Ecw Show in the land (He still fears atw thou)
Tag Teams: Glorify the Tag Division in Ecw. Without the dudleys, that leaves you with at this current moment Axl and Balls, Danny Doring and Roadkill, Rvd and Sabu (Mabye on a parttime basis) and after Hardcore Homecoming, Mabye Sandman and Mikey Whipwreck depending on how things go.
Specialty Matches and Old Rivalries: We Want Singapore Cane Matches, and Barbed Wire, Stairway's to hell, Barb Wire Balls, and Flaming Tables, a Tapei Deathmatch never bothered an extreme fan either. We want to see Tommy Dreamer and Cw Anderson pick up were they left off.
Mabye even build a fued between Sandman and Mikey Whipwreck.
New Fn Talent: The lack of available talent might hurt Ecw, Rhyno, Team 3d,Raven,Jerry Lynn,Konnan and Simon Diamond (Which would be key to add another tag team with him and C dub again) is going to somewhat hurt Ecw. Bring in Cm Punk and try to bring back Chris Hero. Chris Chetti,Blue Meanie,Stevie Richards,Nova,Masanto Tanaka,Mike Awesome (Yes I know Shut up),Vampiro and Juvi havent been doing much of Late.
XPW TALENTS: These guys know what extreme means. Supreme,Angel,Kaos,Pogo The Clown,Damian Steele,Vic Grimes (Who was Ecw Talent),John Kronous (Ecw talent if he lost 30 pounds would be good),Chris Webb,Halloween And Damien 666 probably all need jobs too. I havent seen the human horror film since 02.
Let Terry Funk Do Something Special with the young guys: "Ill do something special with him" We all know Terry is gonna die in the ring. Hes got a bad knee and a bad hip. But he wants to be apart of the show. Weather he does in ring work, or even manages. He is good for business. "Number one...Forever...Forever...Forever!"
Joey Styles: Enough said.
Paul Heyman: Let Paul play an active role on camera as well as off. He was a big part of most of the major storylines which took place in Ecw's first run. Paul E is a creative Genious and has done great work in ovw. I have not a doubt in my mind that we will see the good old Paul back.
Time Slot. Saturday Night @ 11. A 2 hour Broadcast of ecw would be perfect. Paul said it before when he said "I dont care if we have a wednsday night at 3 am." I care.
Rvd as champion: Van Dam did so much for the company. He was there last big star. Reward his efforts, show your grattitude. WWE has used him well, but not well enough. He is the uncrowned World Champion. Mr.Monday,Thursday and Friday Night, Mr.PPV, The Whole Fuckin Show, Mr.Ecw, Mr.Money In The Bank (next to me that is),Rvd 420 Is Ecw. NOW EMBRACE IT DAMMIT.
Aquire Lisences to Talents Original Themes.
These are all factors that I feel will help to further the brand. If Shane Douglas would get his head out of his ass I feel he would be an excellent addition to the roster. I know Shane Hates Vince. But Shane was a big reason I watched ECW,XPW and Nitro when he was on the WCW Roster. He was phenominal in the 90's and we want shane!
If you agree or disagree or youd just like to state your feelings about Ecw's return. Please do so here.
