5 things WWE can learn from ECW

Sometimes the solution to the most pressing issue is on your own network

#4 One man announce booth

Joey Styles was the sole announcer for much of ECW’s run

Sometimes, too many cooks spoil the broth. WWE seems committed to filling up the commentary booth with as many people as it can, sometimes having announcers talk over one another. When Mauro Ranallo was around, the SmackDown live commentary booth had four announcers.

WWE can take a page out of ECW’s book, and stop constantly clogging up the commentary desk with multiple announcers. Joey Styles called the television product, and even pay-per-views, and because he was just that good, he was enough!

Watch him choke up with emotion, as the crowd fondly remembers him, at ECW One Night Stand, years after the company folded and the erstwhile ECW made a return for a night, as a WWE special.
