Wrestling fans are never satisfyed. If this logic was used back in 1996, than nobody would have jumped on the stone cold bandwagon because all he was, was a Sandman rip off. I guess that was ok though because nobody knew who Sandman was but 10% of the east coast, But that makes it ok. No.... The reason we(well, at least me) aren't satisfied is that this has happened TWICE in WWE, and at least TWICE for Shane Douglas and whoever put the mini Hardcore Homecoming tour together. Oh, ECW also got to be WWE's third brand until all the originals were gone after 6 months besides Dreamer. TNA is taking a valuable PPV time slot and giving it to a bunch of guys who haven't been relevant in 5 years since the last reunion show. I'm rooting for RVD/Lynn but an ENTIRE ALL ECW show is just.... if that was the only match or it was ECW vs. TNA, I'd be ok with it. But ECW is dead. Let it rest. No need to do like... the fifth ECW reunion show. What are they going to do differently than the first 5 times? |

So after this crap, can they just be done with all this ECW stuff and make them all go far, far away?

and people wonder why tna is and always will be considered a second rate company. look no further than this sad, sad attempt. How is it a sad attempt? It might temporarily increase ratings and buyrates. Those are the main things all of you bitch about and make fun of constantly. Most of you aren't TNA fans and don't watch the product anyway, so why would this effect you? I'm a TNA fan, and I'm fine with this whole ECW angle completely. Oh just give it a rest. This company is fricked up beyond repair and there's no two ways about it and this is coming from a TNA fan. since day one. TNA has no damn idea what they are doing...they give us 2 months of decent stuff then flush it all down the crapper...8 straight years of this same non sense. |

Sandman even says himself they were nowhere close to the same. |

I've been a TNA fan since 2005, and I couldn't be more opposed to the idea. So there goes that idea right back out the window. And "One Last Stand" Really? REALLY? If WWE had a PPV called "Shut Down" where all the matches were steel cage matches, featuring the "Total Metal Chaos" match, the TNA sheep would sh*t their panties and go INSANE. |

I gotta give TNA credit when they've done something right. They have gone from living in the 80s to the 90s!

I'm a TNA fan and all I see is TNA going downhill at a very fast rate. I completely dislike this angle. I've watched TNA since 2004 (off and on), and I loved 2004-2007. Great years. Now? TNA sucks, but I still sit through the product in hopes it get better. |

For it to increase buy rates you would have to assume that there are more remaing Original ECW fans than there are current TNA fans given that no TNA stars are supposed to appear on the show. Thats sad, any way you shape it. The ECW product died nearly 10 years ago and now they throw together a PPV and fans care more about that than current TNA storylines? 2. I'm a TNA fan, have been since 03, I watch it every week, I'm not ok with the whole ECW angle. I think its completely  ing stupid so there goes that logic. I wouldn't mind Raven vs Dreamer one more time, except they have been coming out as a group for the last like four weeks like they are in the same stable. RVD vs Jerry Lynn could still be great, except ROH probably wouldn't let it happen. So that pretty much leaves me with no desire to see anything they come up with for this PPV. Rhino fits well into the current product so all of this could go away and he could just go back to actually being used. |

I think everyone's kind of jumping the gun on it being "all ECW." You can't really ignore what punksnotdead just mentioned, they're all in a stable together. I mean we'll see after this weeks episode but I don't see the logic in that, even with the complete and utter lack of logic TNA has been using recently.
But, I wouldn't be surprised! How could you be?

So what you're saying is, TNA are taking one of their monthly PPVs and totally disregarding all of the storylines we have going at the minute in favour of something ABSOLUTELY IDENTICAL to what the WWE did and aren't even booking any TNA talent to appear on it? I'M SUPPOSED TO BE SHOCKED BY THAT SORT OF STUPIDITY! Actually they came up with a brilliant idea for getting their talent involved, they're going to be watching from in the stands and heckling the ECW talent. |

Who ever said that it was just ECW wrestlers? I was under the impression that TNA wrestlers were also going to be on the show, seeing as though, you know, they already said Abyss was going to be on it. WWE got the one of the highest buyrates of that year with the same kind of concept. So that must have meant no one cared about the WWE storylines going on at the time either, right? "so there goes that logic." 2. I'm a TNA fan, have been since 03, I watch it every week, I'm not ok with the whole ECW angle. I think its completely ing stupid so there goes that logic. There's no "logic" for you to get from that last comment. It was me stating my opinion. I'm a fan of the current product, and I have no problem with this angle. |

It was the first post of the thread: Initial plans for TNA Hard Justice called for the event to be headlined by a TNA vs. "ECW" bout. Officials have since decided to make the event an "all-ECW" show similar to WWE's One Night Stand in 2005.
