When WWE ran the ECW portion of the Monday Night Wars, Paul Heyman mentioned that it was because of ECW that WWE and WCW were so popular. Both companies had taken ideas and superstars from ECW, matches, wrestling styles, etc. In short, Paul Heyman basically said that without ECW, there would likely be no Monday Night War and, subsequently, no Attitude Era.
Do you think he's right? Would WWE be as popular today or even still in business if they hadn't borrowed/stolen ECW's innovations/superstars? What would have happened had ECW stayed as a minor affiliate of the NWA? Let me know what you guys think.
(PS: Move this if it's somehow in the wrong section. I couldn't decide if this should have been here or GWD.)
