Its been gone a while now, and I never got into it so I was wondering what y'all though the best things to come from this show were. I do look fondly at Tony Atlas' laugh, and I really liked Kevin Thorne (although all credit really goes to Ariel there).

The fact that the entire roster was on equal footing, and because of it, everybody got to look good.

I really miss WWECW. So many people on the current roster got their start there. Everybody slowly got over TOGETHER, rather then the state of Raw/Smackdown today where you have the main eventers, and then everybody else at the bottom.
These days the closest thing we have is Superstars, which to the live audience is a warm up for Raw/Smackdown, and to the Internet viewers, is a bunch of random jobber matches involving guys who we will never see on Raw/Smackdown.

Everybody slowly got over TOGETHER, rather then the state of Raw/Smackdown today where you have the main eventers, and then everybody else at the bottom. I don't understand why they don't have this mentality with Raw and SD. Obviously you keep the main eventers on a slightly higher level, but when the overall goal is making everybody look good you have a more interesting product. As things stand, the undercard serves to make the main eventers look good, and that's all she wrote...

New Breed v. Originals Extreme Rules match the Tues. following WM 23. Amazing match. The Big Show and Mark Henry's amazing runs with the ECW Title. Giving rise to guys like Punk, Kofi, Swagger, Ryder and, Bourne.

Thinking back, the only exceptionally bad stuff that happened involved Bobby Lashley

For those few glorious months after the 2008 draft, Smackdown did a great job of making everyone look like equals. You had guys like Punk/Hardy/Edge/Morrison/Rey/Jericho all exchanging wins and losses with one another which resulted in some amazing television matches. HummerX: I wasn't a huge Lashley fan either. I have to admit that cage spot with Umaga was quite amazing though.

the Paul Burchill v Hurricane feud - gave rise to some great matches and fun backstage promos.
And any TV time for Burchill was also good in my book.
