While this sounds great. I have a feeling that it will end up sucking. I don't think that ECW can have act 2. ECW was a renegade promotion that was making an amazing product out of someones basement (promos), a small arena, swearing, incredible violence, and some of the craziest and most loyal wrestling fans of all time.
That same spirit can't be duplicated. Paul can't be as motivating as he once was, the reason being is that the company isn't his anymore. The company isn't bankrupt anymore. Paul's ass is not on the line anymore. The determination just won't be there.
ECW changed wrestling. It made WCW and WWE HAVE to take notice and both of those companies integrated hardcore into their style.
I just don't see this new ECW breaking any new ground. I also don't see Vince letting Paul make a superior product. Will Vince let the same violence and swearing and high risk spots happen on an ECW show that he won't allow on his shows? I say no f'n way. Many ECW ppv's were some of the best ppv's of all time, yes better than the big 2 at the time.
I hope I am completely wrong on this. i hope this new ECW is f'n awesome and f'n extreme. Something just doesn't sit well with me though.
