One more for the good guys
I know that WWE did stop running ECW as a brand. Technically, I believe they had to stop because Vince basically killed the brand by bringing in his current superstars and going away from what ECW was. The fans lost interest and ECW just became another dumb idea created by Vince.
I truly believe that if One Night Stand were to continue, they would have been able to keep ECW alive for a little while longer. Vince buried ECW just like he did WCW, not giving guys the chance they had when they were with their perspective companies. That's a different topic for a different day though.
So anyways, my question remains, why did they stop producing One Night Stand? The event was sold out both times, the loyalty of the ECW fans was there both times, and they were great pay per views, honestly, some of the best pay per views produced by WWE in the past 8 years. Did they stop it because of the rawness? Did Vince stop it because of the filth by the ECW fans?
I don't call it filth or garbage wrestling like some of my fellow wrestling fans do, because fans with that kind of passion and wrestlers with that kind of passion belong in the wrestling world. It was a way of life and it was freaking awesome. I miss fans that get that into the event on hand, today's WWE crowds are somewhat dead and they just don't back it like what we have seen before with fans from WCW and ECW. Nonetheless, your opinions please.
