Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on RAw Smackdown and ECw. Do you like their direction, who should have the belts, who do you want to see more of/less of?

I know the Millionaire Club had the following members.....
Ric Flair Lex Luger Miss Elizabeth Hulk Hogan Diamond Dallas Page "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan Macho Man Randy Savage Terry Funk Curt Hennig Sting Sid Vicious Kevin Nash Scott Hall
I still think that adds up to more titles the the MEM

I wouldn't compare the MEM vs. Frontiline storyline to WCW's New Breed vs. Millionaire's Club storyline, despite it being similar it was one of those final nail's in the coffin for WCW. TNA has been good lately but how much longer can a wrestling company be held on the backs of Sting, Kevin Nash, Booker T & Scott Steiner, those four guys probably have 1-3 years left in the business while Kurt Angle is always teasing an MMA career. The only way this storyline will be successful is if there is a torch passed to Samoa Joe and AJ Styles...the obvious future of TNA.
As for the WWE, despite it being stagnant in recent months I do feel like it's picking up. I enjoy the youth movement they are going through right now with CM Punk, Kofi Kingston, Priceless, Miz and Morrision. It's shades of the attitude era when they started to build characters like Steve Austin and The Rock.
With Edge, Orton and Cena back in the mix you have a good core of wrestlers to put good names on cards that really weren't to overpowering. Edge and Jericho are some of the best heels in the business right now and whether you love him or hate him Cena = Ratings.
The Jeff Hardy stuff on Smackdown has been good in recent weeks and it will be interesting to see if this is the build to finally giving the charasmic engima the ball to the next level.
ECW is probably the best "wrestling" show of the three with great workers like Matt Hardy, Finlay, Jack Swagger, Miz and Morrision.
I'd like to see the Tag Team division get more time and effort because with the right workers you could have the E&C/Dudleys/Hardys stuff we had in the early part of the decade. Teams like the Colons, Miz & Morrision, Priceless, CM Punk/Kingston have a ton of potential and glimmer to be the future of the WWE in a couple of years.
Yah it could CO but for awhile they haven't had any good tag team action in a while. I still think TNA has better tag teams with the Motor City Machine Guns Bear Money Team 3D and LAX

Well TNA has better tag teams because they actually use their tag team division. The WWE uses tag teams to build younger wrestlers and then move them up into singles. The Hardys, E & C, even MNM.

You cant be in the Tag Divisions forever. That era of Tag Teams helped bring Jeff Hardy, Edge, Matt Hardy and Christian (Cage) to the fore front of wrestling as future main event talents.
Look who else started in the Tag Divisions: Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Booker T, Steve Austin to name a few. Tag Divisions really do a good job of making certain stars into soon to be main event talent.
CM Punk, John Morrision, Ted DiBiase Jr. and Cody Rhodes (to name a few) will be headliners in 5 years minimum.
CM Punk has already been a headliner he was the World Heavyweight champion, John Morrison has been the ECW Champion and Kofi has been IC Champ so your right on that part. But the team that the WWE needs to use more is Cryme Time.

CM Pun got the world title becauyse everyone else was either hurt or were involved in other storylines and they had to get a world title on raw. He was a transitional champ that the inernet fans liked a lot so they gave him a shot.

The storyline is Shawn lost almost all his money in the stock market.Thats why he didnt retire when he was supposed to. So JBL offered himm a job and said he'd take care of his family financially.
