And unless you've been living under a rock, or are just very thickheaded, (stupid) you'd have realized by now that this isn't the "old ECW" and dropped these boring complaints I'd like to point out how nowhere in this thread or any other have I said I wished for the return of the old ECW.

It's not the ECW of old.
It says it's 'extreme' because that's a cool word to hook new viewers.
There's no rule anywhere that says they have to put out entertaining television, just a rule that they need to sucker enough people into watching it.

That's special, but I wasn't refering to you, so you can go back to getting SD a few extra rating points

I deserve some credit for my dislikings. Though I think he's grown by leaps and bounds, I disliked Cena from the start. Before the white rapper gimmick ever even began, I wasn't impressed. When he was in plane jane tights and doing an occasional Stinger splash, I wasn't a fan. Yeah back when Cena and Orton were the exact same generic young guy I called them both John Orton Didn't like them then Liked Cena with B2 and they were nerdy whiteboys who thought they were cool, The Guerreros feud was enjoyable. After B2 left and Cena personalized the US title, I lost interest

Well, uh... He could donate clothes to a goodwill. And then Balls Mahoney will go to the Goodwill store and buy those clothes. He could volunteer at a soup kitchen during a holiday. He could always be Xanta Claus again, only this time he delivers presents.

It has nothing to do with Lashley's skin color, and everything to do with him not being all that great. 1.) Hulk was the WWF champion in the 80s, talking about saying prayers, taking vitamins, etc. It makes sense for a superhero-like character like Hogan to visit sick kids. But, it's not the 80s, and fake-ECW isn't WWF. They've been sayin' stuff about "the New Breed of Extreme" or whatever, but they're going with Mr. Milk-n-Cookies as their champion? Weak. 2.) I loved the old ECW, and I hate WSX. One was legit, and the other is an MTV show. Don't compare the two.

Well, at least they're giving him some backstory.
Until now, he was just a big dude who won some amateur wrestling awards.
Think about THAT for a second. We have no idea who this guy is, and he's a CHAMPION.

I would seriously be Lashleys biggest mark if a purse snatcher attempted to steal an old ladys bag while lashley was helping her cross the street and then Lashley does the dominator on the snatcher then he tells the old lady that that purse snatcher is a meanie head with his little kiddy voice.

Aren't champions supposed to be doing things for kids? Hulk did it by visiting kids in hospitals for example. Time to give this "wahhhh I want the old ECW back!" a break. Go watch WSX and stop complaning. 1) Champions aren´t supposed to be Super Heros. That´s 80´s booking that is dead. It was killed by the Attitude Era, and if you book your champion like that, you better hope that everbody forgot what WWE did in the past. 2) THat´s just pathetic now. The name of the brand is "EXTREME WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIP" yet it´s champion is a guy who sounds like a 12 years old Girl(And I have sound clips to prove it!) and go visist children in the Hospital. "Hey Little Jimmy! When your arm heals back, watch me at EXTREME CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING!" does this sound right to ANYONE? ECW haters or not you must admit that this makes no sense at all. 3) WSX is NOT..I mean, NOTHING similar to the old or new ECW. Nothing. Nada. Zip. ECW was about interesting angles with great performer giving they all. WSX is about High Spots and that´s it.

The ECW name is there for face value only, it's also NOTHING like the old ECW. Why can't people accept it?

ECW just gets worse and worse. Last time I checked, it's 2007. I want a violent, badass champion. Lashley has a girly name and does volunteer work.
