Ever since the closure of ECW in 2001 no wrestling company in america has really focussed in on the hardcore passionate fans that really made that company what is known for now. Yeah sure CZW is probaly the most well known hardcore promotion in the states, but they have never really made it. When TNA first started they had ex ECW guys in, like New Jack and Sandman to name a few and even still have some on the roster now. They did alot of hardcore matches right up to around 2004 ever sine then though less and less hardcore style matches have be occuring, yeah sure we have the odd one every now and then but im talking about hardcore matches like every ECW match. Surely a wrestling organisation would want to tap in on the fans that have be left out of wrestling since ECWs demise? When ECW was re opened in 2006 the ratings of that show was pretty high as most fans thought wow ECW is back, now though its changed and not what they thought those fans are still left without a promotion. Think about it instead of competing to gain new fans as thats hard enough, and instead of competing to gain WWEs fans which is even harder, why dont TNA incorporate more ECW style things into their matches and company? Surely its easier doing this and gaining fans that arent loyal to a promotion at the moment then the ones who were left from ECWs demise then it is any of the above?
So is this what TNA could or should do? Market thier product to fans that have lost out? Or continue down the path they are going and expand? Or is it the fact that there isnt a market anymore for hardcore style wrestling?
Whats you opinion?
