Don't Question My Heart

O'er the land of the extreme and the home of the original?

I glad that ECW has risen again. But the bad news is the new ECW sucks big time. Now that it is merge with WWE, weapons is no longer legal.

The Rosters sucks big time except for CM Punk and Mike Knox and because Vince McMahon found a way to screw up ECW styles. He decided that ECW could not draw on it's own and put WWE superstars like Bobby Lashley and the other WWE superstars and it would hurt the quality and credibility of this show as a third brand of the WWE. But at least we have the original wrestlers like Tommy Dreamer, Tazz, Sabu, Sandman, Rob Van Dam, and Justin Credible.

All they need to do is to bring some more originals like Raven, Rhino, Team 3D (Dudley Boyz) and Shane Douglas and get rid of Lashley and the rest of WWE superstars. Chris Benoit and Rey Mysterio needs to go there because they were part of the originals.

Here's my tag line for ECW: O'er the land of the extreme and the home of the original?
