Backstage reports indicate that there is serious thought regarding the plans for creating a third brand, under the ECW name. If it does come to fruition, most are expecting the show to replace Confidential. While Confidential started out rather strong ratings-wise, it has really declined since WWE decided not to reveal as much inside information on the show, turning it simply into a "fluff show".
Steve Austin is said to be one of the biggest supporters of the new, slower WWE-style. Austin believes that big bumps and high-risk moves aren't the key to drawing, but many midcarders feel that only applies to wrestlers with a special charisma. There is also some resentment, as midcarders feel that the new style only helps to prevent the great, undercard athletes from shining.
