    McMahon taking over ECW.

    Got this from wrestle attitude site. The feeling is Vince McMahon will be taking over full control of the direction of ECW. Heyman was given some control the last couple weeks, but it won't last.

      Yeah, plus I read where McMahon won't push any ECW hardcor'ers on WWE/ECW TV because he doesn't believe they know how to live the lifestyle. What a jerk.

        It's been sabbotaged from the beginning, and after pretty high ratings for awful tv, they're pulling the plug...... good luck with that. Don't let the memories of the XFL hold you back Vince. I hope Paul washes his hands of this completely and does everything in his power to book TNA...

          I wish he could do that, but I heard that Heyman signed a contract extension back in December.

            and he'd be just as hand tied in TNA by Jarrett as he is in WWE by McMahon... Heyman is still head writer... it's just that he has no power now which sucks...

              That definately is not a good thing. I guess we'll never see that ECW style again.

                McMahon's version of ECW has some issues that I hope gets resolved soon enough.

                  Major ECW Change

                  "Major changes taking place with ECW
                  Steve Gerweck - Wednesday, June 28 2006

                  Chris Johnson reporting:

                  Dave Sherer reports that a meeting was held before last night's Smackdown/ECW taping with Vince McMahon, Kevin Dunn, and Paul Heyman. The decision has been made to pretty much break away from all the old ECW characters, ideas, and style of booking. The new plan is to make the show a full fledged third C brand of the WWE.

                  Vince McMahon was really let down by the reaction of the crowd at the ECW Arena house show, last week's 15% ratings drop, and the so far low ticket sales for the Smackdown/ECW tapings especially for the July 4th taping at the Wachovia Center. Those things were said to be huge factors in this decision.

                  Paul Heyman now has even less control over the product while Tommy Dreamer has none. Heyman did script last night's show but alot of it was re-written by the
                  WWE writers. Also for the first two weeks Heyman was in charge of running the shows backstage but that all changed last night as the show was ran pretty much like the usual for Raw and Smackdown.

                  Mike Johnson reports that a decision has been made starting with last night's taping to only fly in the ECW wrestlers that are scripted to work on the show. Only for the house show events will the entire roster be flown in. In addition to that for some odd reason the WWE Tag Team champions Paul London & Brian Kendrick weren't even flown in for last night's tapings.

                  Johnson reports as well that the old ECW referees are expected to get the axe very soon much like former ECW ring announcer Stephen D'angelous did last week."

                  The decision has been made to pretty much break away from all the old ECW characters, ideas, and style of booking. The new plan is to make the show a full fledged third C brand of the WWE.

                          I'm so incredibly sad. We were chanting ECW after that Sabu/Roadkill match.

                            Man, this is some sad-a$$ sh*t.

                            I can't believe VKM could be that stupid. Oh wait, yes I can - just look at Raw and SD! over the past couple of years! How do people still consistently watch that stuff???

                              I told everyone ECW wouldn't make it, could tell that after week 1. Vince gave it a whopping 3 weeks. So sad.
