Alright, some people say that bolstering the roster isn't the cure for ECW's ills. However, it seems that the majority agree that 10 guys on the show grand total, give or take one or two, just doesn't cut it.
So just for the sake of fun hypotheticals (which, let's face it, is pretty much what we're all about here), whether it would really help or not, here's the challenge:
-Pick one RAW roster member to move to ECW.
-Pick one Smackdown! roster member to move to ECW.
-Pick one OVW roster member to get called up to ECW (optional).
Have at it.

I was going to start thread saying 2 members from each brand, But since you beat me to the punch, I'll pick from e.ach. Now ECW is the C show so it won't be a big name, But someone who it can help them and ECW.
Smackdown = Chuck, ECW needs another face and I think Chuck's talents would be at better use for right now in ECW.
Raw = This one is is tough for me, But Shelton would be my choice.

Raw- Jeff Hardy Smackdown- Rey Mysterio I like the idea of a high-flyer on ECW, but don't you think both of those guys might be pushing it a little? Not my intent to find fault with people's choices, I haven't decided on my own picks yet, just saying...

Raw - Super Crazy Smackdown - Rey Mysterio OVW - Colt Cabana.
I think some original names would be good for ECW, and Cabana could be used with CM Punk. Other guys like Burchill and Jay Bradley could go there, but I feel Burchill would be better suited for Raw, and Bradley for Smackdown.

Ecw needs alot of things.....two hours is one of them.. so in the interest of twos, I propose two of each.
Raw * Cody Rhodes - I dont think there will be enough room in WWE for the right development of Cody Rhodes. * Super Crazy - Super Crazy would thrive in the ECW ring where he gained alot of fame.
Smackdown * Kane - WWE's idea was to have a guy who could teach the younger guys to really step up. I know that was all changed with the situation...however, Kane is a person who would not only be suited for that role, but believable in ECW ranks. * Krissy Vaine - I know she just recently joined the Smackdown ranks. But she would be perfect as a valet for a cocky heel....maybe Miz or John Morrison.
OVW * "The Ripper" Paul Burchill - The best place for this gimmick to flourish is an extreme atmosphere of ECW. He could go in an extreme rules match with his gimmick * Colt Cabana - I think it would be awesome to bring someone in could be a lackey for CM Punk and Colt definately fits the bill. \
Put a tag team belt in there as well so people can do something other than fight for one belt. You could also add a world television belt although you would definately need alot more people to fill things out.

I've gotta say I really like this idea, was thinking of it myself. Gives him lots of chances to carry out his avowed mission of putting over young talent, and I suspect he could be arm-twisted into carrying the belt for a while if necessary. The only problem is that SD is so depleted of main-event level talent already, and while Kane could be resuscitated to main-event level if they tried.

The reason WWE did bring Benoit into ECW was to bring in a guy who can coach the future of ECW. Kane would have no problem doing that (as he obviously has no problems putting younger guys over) and he would be very believable in an ECW type atmosphere. I did put two on each list because ECW needs a legitamate roster. If I was the lead creative writer of ECW....I would insist on Kane.

-Pick one RAW roster member to move to ECW. Chris Jericho when he returns(explained in another thread)
-Pick one Smackdown! roster member to move to ECW. Matt Hardy(the man is over like smurf and could get his time in ECW) -Pick one OVW roster member to get called up to ECW (optional). Paul Burchill(last time i saw him he looked really good)
The main idea with me is to not bring guys to "develop" in ECW i mean thats what OVW and other territories are for, my idea is to bring already established people who are hot but need some new enviroment. Even though Burchill is in OVW i think he's definitely ready and capable enough to be part of a program.
