The end of ECW 2.0

[Bob Hubbard]

Sources are reporting that ECW is done for, to be replaced with a new show NXT or "Next Generation". Fans of the original ECW will of course say that ECW is long dead and the show bearing it's name is in name only, a place for the "C" team to play.

Thank goodness they're finally putting that mistake to bed. A real slap in the face to old school ECW fans.

The funny thing is, trademark happy WWE (who lost the rights to WWF to the World Wildlife Foundation) is using the name of a UK based promotion for their ECW replacement. NXTWresting already exists...... Hmm.....
