    I've been reading a bunch of posts on changing the ECW format. A few thoughts.

    I'm not sure if structural change is what it needs. If it really needs any change, that is. If for no other reason that this:  INJURIES

    Example, One Night Stand (ECW ppv) Big Show is now split and i mean SPLIT open. Get well big man!!! Orton has a broken collar bone (um ouch!!!) and FYI, if you saw his back that look like he dislocated the shoulder as well. Randy ..... you must heal quickly! I don't know about you guys and gals, but i prefer my favorite (favourite for our Euro-fans) wrestlers, WRESTLING!!!

    Second - Just think about the dough. It is WAY more cost effective to package ECW before Smackdown (tape nights)

    Third - Sci-Fi is still finding it's legs. It has only found success in the last couple of years. An hour show is a lot easier to (re-up) than two. (You feel me?)

    Anyway, at the end of day, they put on a really solid show. Remember this too, 5 hours a week to tell a story. That's what the WWE has. Be patient. Maybe not as patient as they seem to be with Adamle but hey, nobody is perfect. other than Beth Phoenix. WOOOOOOOO - fp

    To tell you the truth Freddie, I actually want ECW to go for two hours, just like SmackDown! and RAW. I have talked to a few of my friends and they all have said that they would want ECW to go for two hours instead of just one hour. I know it would seem a lot harder due to the fact that SmackDown! AND ECW both tape their shows on the same night, (ECW is live, SmackDown! is taped to be shown on Friday) but hey, what are ya gonna do? =/

    Im not sure ECW can even last that long. Ever since the Talent Exchange between ECW/SmackDown! ECW was doing alot better. The ratings were even beginning to rise. But suddenly iy took another downfall. Dont really know what the cause was, but it's pretty evident that ECW is becoming stale altogether. I enjoying watching ECW, but eventually I thikn SmackDown and Raw should be the only shows WWE focuses on and let ECW R.I.P.

    I like ECW the way it is....not too long, but long enough for people to keep talking about it, an dif it gos two hours then it becomes just another RAW, Which, wouldn't be that bad, but.....it, too me, keeps me comming back. and i do like all the eXtream rules matches....just because when it comes down to some "Bad Blood", what better way to end the feude??
