The future of Extreme

Just found this on the WWE home page. ANybody know what it could be? I think it'll be the announcing that ECW is no more

http://www.wwe.com/shows/ecw/

What are we supposed to be looking at?

Where it says the future of Extreme, there's no actual story there, just says

Quote :

Tonight Mr. McMahon himself will appear in the Land of the Extreme to address the WWE Universe on the future of ECW!

it will be the best thing for it. it will stop all the thick fans complaining about how it isnt extreme when we all know ecw is for the younger and less established stars to show what they can do

Oh I see it now, when I first clicked on the link it wasn't there.

tbh if ECW is just being scrapped altogether and no re-invented i would like to see a longish storyline where ECW wrestlers had to earn places on the other shows, by beating people on other shows at PPV's or regular shows but of the GM's chosing which wrestlers they attempt to get from ECW.

Ie

Christian would need to beat ...... on smackdown in a (for example) tables match to gain a place on the show. Would provide some good matches i feel.

It says on the page now that Vince Mcmahon turned up to say that ECW would be gone in 3 weeks to make way for a future WWE thing. I can imagine the reception he got from the Ecw fans after announcing that!

I don't think it would do Christian any good what so ever, he is the Champion of ECW, it should count for something, I'd much rather Christian became the hottest free agent out there and RAW and SmackDown! would have him on the show for weeks trying to persuade him, possibly culminating at WrestleMania in the Brand vs Brand match and have Christian do a run in and help whatever brand he chooses get a win, this could be him 'making his decision'

Then he could take the ECW title to that brand and claim he is the real world champion (rip off from the Ric Flair 1991 story) and have Christian enter into a feud with the reigning WWE or WHC champion, then have title unification match up with one of those titles and the ECW title (I'd obviously have Christian lose as you can't just have him rip up a show)
