Joey Asbo 45 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Just an idea i came up with during a bit of a debate i had about the draft. I had the idea to draft the cruiser title over to ECW to boost the brand and the title. Just wondering if anyone else had any other thoughts on how they would like to see things changed in ECW for the better.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cathal Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Well seen as it is called Extreme Championship Wrestling a few more extreme rules matches might help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dave7g Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Take the belt away from Lashley and give it to Punk or Monty Brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Asbo 45 Posted June 5, 2007 Author Share Posted June 5, 2007 I also liked ECW better without the flashy entrance, the ECW printed canvas and with the show shot from the different angle - from the entrance ramp side. i just think the little things helped establish the show as something different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Crow 370 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Firing CM Punk would make the brand a million times more entertaining. Giving the title to... Dr. McMahon would be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Craig Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Less Punk, more Burke is a good way to do things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jack Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I'm interested to know why people dislike Punk. Considering how popular he was, what, 6 months ago, it seems strange that people really dislike him, when he hasn't done anything wrong. I know wrestling forums always have bandwagons (Cena hate, Punk love, Henry love etc.), so I'm guessing this is the same. Some people will always dislike certain wrestlers (I know DraVen seems to have always disliked Punk), but the rest? I don't know. I certainly don't think Punk has done anything to warrant going from everyones favourite wrestler, to literally hated. Why do people dislike him? I don't think he is close to being as good as he was in ROH, but he certainly isn't bad. He always delivers a decent match at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dpddave Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I think a lot of people say they dont like him to be percieved as different and not going with the popular opinion.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MastersGonads Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 The title of this thread has been debated many a time... Make the main event each week an Extreme Rules match would be a great start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 536 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I think a lot of people say they dont like him to be percieved as different and not going with the popular opinion....But the more people who follow that lead will mean that it will become the popular opinion.

Guest DarkMatchJobber Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Vince McMahon's created ECW in his WWE image and I've heard the land of extreme gets better ratings every week than TNA's Impact (also it makes a profit unlike the original promotion and TNA) so it can't all be bad can it? Joey Asbo's idea to draft the cruiserweight title to ECW is a very good one because I feel that the ability of any cruiser not called Rey Mysterio is constantly overlooked by your average WWE fan,putting talent such as Chavo or Jamie Noble on Sci-Fi and debuting them in a city with a rabid ECW following would instantly get them over as forces to be reckoned with (Ala Punk debuting in Hammerstein where the fans actually roared with approval at how good he is in the ring and would not give monster reactions to duds like Batista). Also give the show 2 hours to play with so angles won't be rushed.(this sounds like an Improving TNA thread :lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve O Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I dont mind CM Punk I like him more than I hate him but I have never really loved him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MastersGonads Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I used to think giving ECW 2 hours would be a great way to improve it, but my opinion has changed. Its not time the show needs, its quality of matches within its current hour, it could be a great 1 hour show if that was considered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC 536 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 If they had the time, a 'From the Vault' segment featuring classic matches from the original run would be a nice addition. I need to agree with MG though, there has to be at least on Extreme Rules match per show and the ECW Title should be under these conditions at all times. Not wasting the talent they have/had would have been a start as well. Balls Mahoney, FBI, CW Anderson, Stevie Richards, Justin Credible and Sandman should have been used better than they are/were. And splashing the cash for Enter Sandman rather than the Diva Search wouldn't be a bad thing either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
