Against John Cena, who was the antithesis of what an ECW fan thought should be a performer on an ECW show.
And their main event was so memorable for the audience's reaction.
The character of the audience was the star of that show.
And the fact that Rob Van Dam won...
made that show popular, acceptable, beloved.
And coming out of that, had we presented somewhat of a new style
A progressive, innovative approach to professional wrestling in 2006 that was a genuine alternative to anything WWE was offering at the time on Raw or SmackDown.
It could have been a hit.
But instead, it just became a third brand utilizing stars off of Raw and SmackDown.
First move I made in the new ECW, I brought CM Punk up from OVW.
I wanted Rob Van Dam to be the legend from the original crew.
And then you sprinkle in all these other ECW originals as we move the new stars up into the spotlight of what would become a new version of ECW, which was, at its worst, a complete alternative to anything else that's out there.
And instead that...
was not what WWE was willing to put on the air and was amongst the most miserable experiences of my entire life because it became very personal between me and Vince very fast because I spent seven and a half years of my life building a brand that at some point became more of a cause
than a business.
Sure, to this day, people still chant ECW.
So when you give your life to the cause, you give seven and a half years, and these are prime years too.
Two hours a night.
But I didn't want to sleep.
Yeah.
