Vince McMahon announces end of ECW program

noreply@blogger.com (Everett W.) — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 06:35:00 +0000

World Wrestling Entertainment chairman/CEO Vince McMahon has announced the official end of the ECW television program in three weeks. During this week's ECW telecast, McMahon also stated that a new program to represent the next evolution of WWE would take ECW's place in the Syfy timeslot.

The cancellation of ECW on Syfy comes after years of declining ratings as it quickly veered away from Paul Heyman's extreme vision to become a watered down version of the two more prominent WWE brands. Though the new ECW did still feature strong wrestling matches from time to time, there wasn't enough marquee power or promotional support to attract most WWE fans.

The new program is expected to focus on younger performers, the 'next generation' of WWE talent. In some respects, the effort may end up being similar to the current ECW brand but without the history of the ECW name behind it. PWInsider.com reports that the rebranded series will be known as 'WWE NXT.'

What isn't immediately clear is which ECW brand performers will be retained for NXT and which ones (if any) get reassigned to the Raw and Smackdown brands. The status of the ECW title now held by Christian will also have to be clarified in the weeks ahead.______________________
