I think Stevie deserves a shot at the top, especially since ECW is an experimental brand to an extent. I think he'd definitely make it work.

Well the faction idea wouldn't have to be permanent. It would help elevate Stevie's face (or heel) status in the WWE. In fact it could set up a great faction rivalry and it could quietly elevate him to the main event. Since the ECW roster is so small, they could have a few contenders in the title scene and just below that you have the tag champs and then you could create two factions out of the rest. Having Smackdown involved could make the storylines endless. You could have Stevie with two or three other team mates and versus a faction of let's say Shelton, Burke, and Dykstra/Victoria. It would be sick to see a feud like this lead to a ladder match or something.
I would even go as far as saying put Stevie in a "take over" storyline to make him the GM of ECW. That way Armando could make a suprise return to RAW and continue to manage Umaga.
This is what I'd like to see with Stevie anyways. I hope the WWE has some good plans for him in the near future.
