WWE is going forward with the idea of treating ECW as a high level developmental territory to focus on introducing new wrestlers, and wrestlers who are already there with minimal experience to get some national television exposure. WWE believes that no matter who they have on ECW that it will retain it's current 1.4 weekly rating average. A lot of people within WWE feel that Chris Benoit will be on Raw some time in 2008 due to Triple H wanting him there. For now Benoit will remain in ECW as the top star and will be in charge of grooming the younger wrestlers such as Marcus Cor Von and Elijah Burke.

It's a shame that the WWE are wasting a talent like Benoit on training the rookies. But then again, Wrestling and Sports Entertaining are two different things and Chris Benoit doesn't have the mic skills needed to be an Upper Card Face in Vince's business.

i think benoit in ecw is a smart move. at least theres guranteed to be one good match every week but i think that ecw can actually get more than a 1.4 rating. they should be able to take over sd as the #2 show if done right. especially since sd have khali

^^^that wont happen, as much as i love benoit! Benoit in ECW is a great move, he really can put over ne1 he likes, the guy has a natural ability to do it. Just look at MVP...

Benoit back on RAW always sounds good, and because Trips wants him there is just strange. Good, but strange.
