GUEST EDITORIAL
By Forrest Mahaffey of Des Moines, Iowa
I'm sitting here watching ECW on Tuesday night and I have to admit that I really enjoy the way they present the new guys and veterans. Goldust is back in shape and has his old form circa 1994 as Dustin Rhodes.
But I can't help but think of a topic that I would love to see discussed and considered by the WWE brass. Each brand has a secondary champion except ECW. Wouldn't it be fun to see ECW have a TV champ?
The title wouldn't even have to be defended on PPV and it might bring more excitement to the show.
In my mind, I would first put that title on a veteran, like Goldust. He would defend against a newer talent, then some of the younger stars would eventually win it.
Maybe I'm the only person that misses a TV Title, but I also miss the Cruiserweight/Lightweight title. Just food for thought.
