Rofl at your cluelessness.

Hes big pretty much the same way kofi kingston was in his first couple weeks on ECW
Everyone whos been watching ECW sees evan bourne and can't help but think wow when they see the insane athleticism he has
The guy has a cool theme song he looks cool and he wrestles like a crazy monkey
Even though hes only been on ECW for like 3 weeks I think hes cooler than ECWs entire current roster besides John morrison

He's a big name because you like him? Gotcha. Nice reasoning.
Kofi is a bigger deal now because he got over with the fans. This was the result of 1) Having a gimmick, and 2) Winning a bunch of matches. Bourne jobs out every week to guys like Knox, has no gimmick, and all he has is his athleticism. Great, if you've learned anything, it's that you need more than just athleticism to get pushed. IE: Benjamin, Burke.

Re: ECWs new roster is looking pretty screwed up
Evan Bourne isn't a big name. That isn't to say he isn't talented. He's a lot of fun to watch, his matches are intense.
ECW the worst show, you say? In terms of actual wrestling entertainment, ECW is my FAVORITE WWE show. Yeah, you read that right, favorite. It, at least until recently, was filled with young, excited talent who want to prove themselves. They like to pull out all the stops. Benjamin, Kingston, Bourne, Burke have been great to watch, when they bother throwing them a bone. Granted, it's also filled with some lagging stars like Show, Kane, Henry, but it gives them a chance to rejuvenate and have them ask themselves whether or not they love the biz anymore.
Granted, I like the story as well as the wrestling, and for that you can't go to ECW. It's more a showcase of young and up and coming wrestling talent.
I'd rather watch them in the ring then watch Cena, HHH, and Orton half-ass a match on RAW or have La Familia orchestrate another beat down of 'taker or Batista on Smackdown. Edge, The Animal, and Undertaker are great talent, but with these stale stories and no one caring...why should they?
As to ECW's current roster, I agree they screwed it up with the draft. Finlay and Hornswoggle - whatever, that's for the kids. The fact that they took Shelton and Kofi out hurts. A lot. Granted, their feud was old, but they were great talent. Kofi is exceptionally entertaining and Shelton does great things with heights. Mark Henry is un-entertaining and is going to probably squash everyone in sight.

Re: ECWs new roster is looking pretty screwed up
I think those thing to happen on ecw to those make move to raw taking.
Mark Henry win the ecw champion at night of champion then feud with Big show.
Finlay and Hornswoggle win the wwe tag team champion at night of champion then John Morrison and The miz get a rematch and lost then Finlay and Hornswoggle feud with Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder win the wwe tag team champion at great american bash.
Matt Hardy feud with Mike Knox.
Kelly Kelly face Lena Yada in a Bikini Contest.

Re: ECWs new roster is looking pretty screwed up
I don't like the roster that much right now.
It puts them in a hard position unless they call up Harris, D'Lo, or Killings (or anyone else, for that matter).
Without counting Boogeyman....
Heels
Mark Henry.
John Morrison.
The Miz.
Chavo Guerrero.
Bam Neely.
Mike Knox.
Elijah Burke.
Armando Estrada.
Faces
Matt Hardy.
Finlay.
Evan Bourne.
Tommy Dreamer.
Colin Delaney.
Super Crazy.
Stevie Richards.
Hornswoggle.
Nunzio.
Look at the dropoff in faces. Is that a joke?

Re: ECWs new roster is looking pretty screwed up
Super Crazy should adapt well to ECW, the loss of Kofi and Shelton pretty much screwed their current midcard though.

Re: ECWs new roster is looking pretty screwed up
The lost kane, cm punk, kofi and shelton. And their only title. They have gained hornswoggle. ECW is on their last legs, lets face it. They have been raped and molested by WWE. I enjoy the entertaining matches but it pains me that there is a world title on ECW. There is no one on that list even close to being credible enough to hold a world title. John morrison has the talent but needs a few years on smackdown to get to the top.

Re: ECWs new roster is looking pretty screwed up
I would not be surprised if the last champion of this brand turns out to be whoever the World Champion is on Raw, in a unification match.

For faces it looks great right up until you see Tommy Dreamers name, also what has happened to Steven Richards, he was feuding with Knox and all of a sudden he hasnt appeared in ages. The heels dont look to bad and with the excemption of Mark Henry id say they are all guys that i could see the top 3 faces including Bourne beating. Mark Henry just unbalances it a bit, hes probably heavier and stronger than the whole bottom half of the faces put togeather.

He is not that big. I mean maybe to some Indy fans but the majority of WWE fans never heard of him. And Vince would never pay that much for a virtually unknown kid. Then there is the fact that if he was that they would not have changed his name.
