what is the ecw in wwe ?

Question

is it a different section of wwe?

Answer 1

Nope it's all owned by Vince McMahon. Just like Smackdown and Raw. It's just like a different team.

Answer 2

ECW stands for Extreme Championship Wrestling, which was a revolutionary independent wrestling promotion from 1994 to 2001. ECW went bankrupt and its owner, Paul Heyman, sold the company and all the rights to Vincent Kennedy McMahon. This latest rebirth is Vince McMahons ill fated attempt to cash in off the ECW name because of the success of the One Night Stand PPV in 2005. The Current ECW or the WWECW as I like to call it is not a facsimile of the original ECW, and is more or less an ECW in the vision of Vince McMahon, which makes it more or less just another brand extension of WWE ala RAW/Smackdown.

Answer 3

Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) returned as a World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) brand on June 13, 2006 with a weekly television series. This series can be seen on the Sci Fi Channel in the United States, Sky Sports 3 in the United Kingdom and SKY 1 in New Zealand. A Canadian TV deal is currently being worked on.
WWE began reintroducing ECW through a series of DVDs and books following its 2003 acquisition of the company's tape library, most notably The Rise and Fall of ECW, a documentary of the promotion's history. The enormous popularity of ECW merchandise prompted WWE to organize an ECW reunion show in 2005 dubbed ECW One Night Stand. The financial and critical success of the pay-per-view motivated WWE to organize a second One Night Stand the following year. With rejuvenated interest in ECW, WWE explored the possibility of reviving the promotion.
On May 26, 2006, WWE announced the relaunch of ECW as a stand-alone franchise that would complement WWE's RAW and SmackDown! brands. The promotion would emanate on Sci Fi Channel. [1] Although a puzzling decision, Sci Fi Channel's President Bonnie Hammer believed that ECW would fit the channel's theme of stretching the imagination. Sci Fi Channel is owned by NBC Universal, parent company of USA Network, the exclusive cable broadcaster of WWE programming.
To boost the success of the brand, ECW was cross-promoted on WWE programming. This began in the weeks leading up to the 2006 One Night Stand pay-per-view. A prime time WWE vs. ECW Head to Head special was aired to promote the pay-per-view as well.
Former ECW owner Paul Heyman has been entrusted with operating the brand along with WWE creative. Furthermore, long-time WWE Superstars Kurt Angle and the Big Show have joined former ECW performers such as Rob Van Dam, Sabu, and The Sandman to headline the promotion. Joey Styles has returned to his former role as ECW play-by-play announcer, with Tazz joining him as a color commentator.
Coupled with the Sci Fi show are a number of ECW-exclusive live events booked for the duration of the channel's contract, including a return to New Alhambra Arena (formerly known as ECW Arena) on June 24.[2] ECW will also return to the Hammerstein Ballroom on August 1 for a TV taping.
