Jason Powell{Spoiler}The following contains a spoiler regarding tonight's TNA Impact taping for Thursday's television show.
TNA officials are planning to have the ECW faction attack several TNA wrestlers during tonight's Impact taping. The various performers started going over the angle after the talent meeting that was held on Monday afternoon at the Impact Zone.
Powell's POV: It will be interesting to see how this plays out and whether the ECW faction are positioned as babyfaces or heels. The live crowd at the Victory Road show broke out a loud "EC-Dub" chant on Sunday night.
TNA officials had been hopeful that Paul Heyman would be part of the angle, but he is not at the taping. However, the word backstage at the pay-per-view on Sunday was that Heyman met with Dixie Carter at her home in Nashville on Thursday.

I will never understand the fascination of having your fans chant for a dead company.

...but since he arrived there five minutes later than expected, she didn't have to pay for the pizza.

I guess it's better than building main-event angles around WWE's Hall of Fame ring. I mean, well... Okay, it's not, really. But... Wait... I... Just... *sigh*

$40 in internets say that at some point someone in the ECW faction will win a title then throw it in the garbage.
Any takers?

That was the first thing I thought too. On the flip side, Nipple H can't be revealed as the owner in TNA so they're already one up on the Invasion |

Yeah, get the crowd to chant ECW, then, WWE can bring it back and just like that - free publicity!
It comes to something when the company that used to be all about pushing new talent have become this.
It's so sad really.

I can't wait until Stevie Richards has Kurt Angle down and starts screaming "YOU ARE NOT BETTER THEN ME!" at him and then giving him a big Stevie Kick!

For those here taking a dump on this angle, here's a question. What if Sting were the mouth piece of this group? Sting hates Dixie and it would make sense (if the ecw crew are heels). Thoughts?
Edit: ok. Maybe not sense. But you get the point.

Can we please stop raping the corpse of ECW? I don't mind the old ECW guys having a faction, because it makes sense that they'd have that bond. However, I do hope that the angle has nothing to do with ECW. I'd rather they just happened to be aligned with each other because of their past, but they have a new set of goals that don't involve ECW. |

Can we please stop raping the corpse of ECW? Totally agree. I'm pretty sick of some ecw group coming around all the time. It's been done to death and these 4 need a new gimmick. I mean good grief, it's been gone for nearly a decade! There are only so many times these ecw guys or a promotion can use their decade old gimmick and it still be even remotely interesting. Especially if every time it involves the same small group of guys who eventually get jobbed out. |
