I'd love for the Hardcore title to return to the WWE. Surely theres no better place to put it then on ECW as the second championship. I'd certainly give it a watch if that were the case. Anyone else agree?

Secondly, do you think 's any likelihood of it happening?

In my opinion something needs to spice up ECW. The Hardcore title would be perfect as it wouldn't involve importing in big talent from Raw and Smackdown!

The Hardcore Title would be ok if not an original ECW title...I personally think the Television title would be a better fit...as far as either 1 happening it seems unlikely at this point but with the way Vince has booked things lately I wouldn't be surprised.

Bring the Cruiserweight Title back and make it ECW and end this brand exchange.

The roster is to thin for tag titles and I just cant see the Hardcore Title returning.

Zero percent chance of the Hardcore Title returning to ECW. They really should change the name of ECW because it really isn't extreme anymore, but it is a good way for young talent to be featured on TV. I wouldn't mind putting the cruiserweight title back there. It'd be cool if they had a tournament on TV bringing it back then having the finals at Night of Champions. But as far as having the Hardcore Title back I can't see that happening.

Yeah, it would be good to have the Hardcore title but I doubt it would happen. I don't think the C/W title would be coming back so soon either, and I can't see another title going to ECW, I woul like one to go their though. The TV title is definatly not coming back...

It needs a midcard title. I have said it all along. They have midcard talent just there every week with pointless three week feuds. If they had a midcard title to fight for then the midcard section would actually be more exciting.

HARDCORE TITLE IS NOT RETURNING AS MUCH AS YOU WANT IT BECAUSE IT WAS GIVEN TO FOLEY TO TAKE HOME TO KEEP AS HE IS THE HARDCORE LEGEND!

but a 2nd title wouldn't be bad, I wouldn't mind a Mid Card TV title or the CW title moved over there ?

Yeh good points. I'm guess I'm just living in the past, hoping that next year will be 2001 again.

If ECW were to invent a new title completely they wouldn't go far wrong then looking at the X Division title on TNA. Though I've never watched the wrestling promotion the concept of the X Division does sound mouth watering.

Also I've never quite understood why Mick Foley was given the hardcore title. He never actually won it in the WWE if my memory serves me correctly (besides being given it). Yes, he was famed for his hardcore antics and he did it better then anyone else but to give it to someone who never won it seems a bit daft.

Don't we all.

On the matter at hand, I don't think they will put a mid-card title on ECW. It seems to me that ECW is just TV developmental, trying out all the guys (like Punk, Morrison etc) who they feel will be main eventers in the future. That means WWE won't put any more effort into it than they need, that means no mid-card title...

Television Championship. Currently it's Kane as ECW Champion, which is fine. But, if WWE wants to push younger talents, they should bring in a secondary title such as the Television Championship, it would help push them with that gold.

I think WWE's title situation is a complete mess.

I think the hardcore title should be brought back but not the same as it was years ago. Get rid of the 24/7 rule to make it a credible title. Make it interpromotional along with every other title (apart from the top ones) and also get rid of one set of tag team titles. There is no need for two!

the last thing the WWE needs is another title. Any titles but the big two (maybe three) are worthless right now. And one of the reasons is that there are so many god damned titles. How can they have any value if there are 8 other titles? If anything, they need LESS.

The ECW title already looks like shit and is given no credability. What would be the ranking of a title even lower than that? The ECW Jobber Title?

i think a second title would really help ecw... i would say that they should share the US title with smackdown but they already have the tag titles and the CW championship is gone and there is currently no world champion on smackdown so then smackdown would have no championships... i would like to see the TV title come back or the CW title come back and be on ecw and then they could put super crazy or rey mysterio over there and give him one of those to start off it...
