^ OMG dude you must just like bad commentary. i hated brad armstrong doing commentary with them and i am a fan of the armstrongs.
Styles is not bad at all. his voice may be anoying to some...which i guess is why some bash MC. but he isn't bad. he knows the moves and dose his job very well.
brad armstrong was just boring and was not really up to date with wrestling IMO.

I think everyone is reading too much into this Styles thing.
Its been obvious that Styles was only brought back into the WWE when JR need the time off. Styles return to travel and broadcasting I believe was ment to be tempary. I believe it was when JR returned that the WWE had already decided that ECW would be made a 3rd brand and the WWE offered Styles a permanint job. Its also been obvious that Styles never wished to actually return to full time broadcasting. Styles was running his web site and being sucsessful and never had to leave home. He was with his family. I think he was happier there. I think he's come to enjoy working with the WWE, but really still didn't want to be in the broadcast chair. This job with WWE.com was most likely something he applied for internally within the company and is most likely some sort of promotion with a pay raise and he probably gets to be closer to home again. Its no doubt that this is what Styles wanted. I just find it funny that everyone assumes this is happening because Styles got fired or forced out.

I don't assume that what i assume is that WWE.com has been wanting to get more hits and they were bringing out the new industry news and joey styles already ran a website i believe and they thought it would be good to see if joey could make WWE.com a better site.
I told myself id stop watching WWECW as soon as they got rid of Styles (because theyve done such a shitty job so far I had a feeling they would do something idiotic like that). I officially want them to either change the name to something else or scrap it altogether. I mean honestly what is extreme about it anymore? WWECW is basically like the XFL they should bury it.
Even paul heyman said it was gonna be different. of course its gonnabe different with the audience WWE has they can't do brutal stuff on TV especially with WWE focusing more on kids. maybe they should change the name but its not that big of a deal like heyman said WWE bought it they can do whatever they want with it....but hiring mike adamle...worst move ever.
^man kronik u bash wwe at any cost...regardless of what u say.
Meh give Adamle a break commentary wise...1st day jitters.
Apart from that his mispronounciations and mistakes would still attract people to watch him fuk up haha

Styles is good, and has been the voice of ECW for years. It's just not the same without him. Plus, Adamle is crap. Who cares if he has a good voice. If you're not a wrestling fan, you should not have a spot on TV.
^ECW was never the same again when they got Macho Libre' lol. Since then it was DOWN hill. Like two ECW OG's left. One ain't even seen. One is teaming with the biggest jobber in Double Double E. They act like an Extreme Rules Match is a big deal every three months. And the most dumbest thing ever - Punk/Chavo throw the other guy in the river match, or w/e it was called. They've done worse than replacing Joey man, come on. Just an announcer. Tazz is still holding it down. Hopefully CM The Punk leaves the show, because he's farthest from Extreme, Mr. Straight Edge.

My 2 Cents:
I loved watching ECW, it was very enjoyable because of Mike Adamle. The guy is a certified player, he has a great announcing voice, he has been in broadcasting for years, he is from Chicago, hell I watch him do sports on channel 5 or whatever, he knows what he is doing. All he needs to learn is the characters and a few wrestling holds, maybe get in tune with the storylines, wait, ECW has no storylines. Anyone remember TNA's first couple shows? Don West had no ability and no knowledge of wrestling, it grew on him, and it will grow on Mike Adamle. The guy announced for American Gladiators, he has been around the block. Once he learns the ropes he will be an amazing announcer.
However, he wasn't too good last night, that's given, it's his first show, but I was laughing throughout the whole show, something I never did when Joey Styles was at the booth. I think ECW is more enjoyable without Joey Styles, I hated that tool.

Well the WWE doesn't want its announcers calling moves. So Adamle succeeded at that.
Maybe he can watch some old tapes when Vince was the play by play guy. Whenever something happens, you just say, "What a manuever!"
Also, he should have at least sat down the night before and memorized the names of the wrestlers. There are only like 5 on ECW, it shouldn't be that hard.

I knew Adamle was going to be bad... But damn, he was terrible! He didn't know the names of the wrestlers, he didn't know the names of some of the wrestlers, and you could barely hear him because he was almost whispering.
WHY, WWE, WHY?
WHY, WWE, WHY?
Never really watched ECW but Styles wasn't the greatest announcer. He's more known for saying "Oh My God" then anything else.
