EC3 gets heated discussing NWA allegedly losing their deal with The CW
Рет қаралды 19,445
7 ай бұрынThe wrestling world has been buzzing about WWE NXT going to The CW. But prior to that, it was rumored that the NWA had signed a deal with the network. In this edition of The Wrestling Outlaws, former WWE Head Writer Vince Russo is joined by Dr. Chris Featherstone and the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion EC3. The Champion does not hold back as he fires on stooges in the locker room talking to dirt sheets, the state of journalism, and the truth behind what happened with the alleged lost deal.
It's a fascinating discussion you don't want to miss out on.

EC3 in his first year with NXT was amazing. That was essentially his peak, especially his debut in the legendary ladder match for the North American Championship. Honestly tjat era of NXT was magical and the takeovers were perfect. I feel those wrestlers are still chasing that high cause it was that good

I don't actually believe that the cocaine spot actually cost NWA the CW Deal, but the idea of that being the case is hilarious. In reality, if I as a Network Executive was given the choice for a wrestling show produced by the NWA or the WWE, I'm going with the WWE for their branding, marketability, and even their own history with The CW. No disrespect to the NWA, but it's an apples to oranges argument.

Holy shit thats a legendary fumble. Hall of fame level fumble. Goat fumble😂 and corgan apparently was the one pushing hard to do the spot on the show lool if i was a wrestler over there id be out of there because why would you wanna work for someone so clueless whos gonna possibly fuck up yours and everyone elses money like that

How are they at the bottom of the barrel when they are/were actually in the business and successful at the highest level?… Meanwhile these other channels have marks from overseas who never did anything in the business but are more respected apparently or dirt sheets writers again who never did anything. This comment is what’s wrong with wresting fans today Ec3 was world champion in Tna and current world champion and we all know how successful Vince was but they are at the bottom?

He's definitely on something. I don't think it's alcohol though, he seems mildly incapable of sitting still, is breathing quite heavy, and his pupils look heavily dilated but it's hard to tell. He's also getting very very chatty, along with going off on long tangents. This my friend I believe is an example of a wrestler on cocaine. I'm starting to wonder how much he played in that spot on that PPV. It would explain him shrugging it off so quickly and spinning it as something good.

Or maybe, and this is just a thought....it's very possible that EC3 is just another internet daring that turned out to not be as big a deal as the IWC made him out to be. I never bought into him when he was in TNA, even when they tried to strap a rocket on him. He's an indy guy. That's what he is, and the IWC needs to accept it instead of trying to blame WWE every time their darlings don't stand out there.

Billy needs to send EC3 to rehab and then proceed to sell the company to a reputable buyer who can turn things around because apparently touring with Smashing Pumpkins is more important to him even though no one really cares about that band anymore especially since it's not the original lineup. Just sell the company Billy, you did what you could and we love you for it but it seems like your priorities are skewed.

Vince explodes on EC3 (like a power keg of fire) !; AEW is a pro wrestling company with a hardcore (rabid fan base) niche crowd (immediately, I am thinking of "Jacksonville Dixie (Carter)," = TK (Tony Khan), who is trying to become like ECW, TNA (Impact Wrestling), the original ROH, WCW/NWA (nWo), WWE/WWF-lite, or other indy feds (GCW, CZW, XPW; Chikara, the old cosplay (anime) Comic Con-like company (Mike Quakenbush). Uncle Dave Meltzer, along with Bryan (Alvarez) and his Meltzerites is a WON (Wrestler Observer Newsletter) "dirt sheet" writer cult: what a great analysis by Dr. Chris. No doubt about it. I remember when there was the WB, (Smackdown on) UPN and now, the CW Network ("Dawson's Creek" tv show). "The truth is important. There are misguided people." - EC3

My friend works for CW and everything reported in the media is 100% true. The CW lost their TV deal because of the cocaine angle just like IMPACT Wrestling lost their TV deal with Spike when they lied to the President of PopTV that Vince Russo was not on the payroll. I'm sure EC3 knows the truth. He's lying to everyone to save face. OVW should cut EC3.
