10 Classic WCW And ECW Storylines WWE Could Reboot

WWE.comThis week on the WWE Network has seen the introduction of the long awaited series "Monday Night War". During it, fans will have the chance to relive the heady days of the late 1990's, when the game of one-upmanship reached previously unseen heights between Vince McMahon's WWF and Eric Bischoff's WCW. In fact, if you listen to today's WWE, you would think that there were only two promotions of any note at this stage of the wrestling industry. Except there was a third. The red-headed stepchild of the industry - ECW. ECW influenced WWE's Attitude Era and WCW signed many of ECW's biggest names (as did WWE, to be fair). Paul Heyman's ECW may have been smaller than the two other promotions but it was certainly influential. Fast forward to mid-2001 - ECW had folded and WCW had been bought by the McMahon's (and subsequently squandered - but that's another story for another time!). With all of this in mind, I want to look at 10 storylines from WCW and ECW that could be used in today's WWE. Yes, they might need to be tweaked a little (we all know the saying about those that don't learn from history!), but they could all be used effectively to elevate, and create, stars for the modern WWE roster.
