When "Power Rangers RPM" was airing, the original showrunner Eddie Guzelian was let go for budgetary concerns and (supposedly) because he wanted to take the series in a direction the producers did not agree with.

I've been unable to find the source of the rumor but Guzelian's ending for the show went something like this:



The final episode of RPM would be titled "Ranger Black" and reveal that Dylan had always been the new host body for the Venjix Virus. Everything about Dylan's human existence was just fabrication to ensure Venjix' ultimate survival. So the Rangers' last fight would be to kill their former teammate.



If the rumor was indeed true and they had gone ahead with this ending, how would it have affected the series? Would people have enjoyed RPM more or less with that kind of ending??
