from LOP



-- USA Network will broadcast the ECW vs. WWE special live from 9-11PM on 6/7. It will emanate from Dayton, Ohio. The show will be headlined by a Battle Royal.

-- WWE is working on booking a number of ECW house shows in various cities the promotion once toured. Being looked at are Philadelphia (ECW Arena on 6/24 is the goal), Detroit, Chicago, Poughkeepsie, Buffalo, Cleveland, Boston, Fort Lauderdale, New York (Hammerstein Ballroom), Tampa, Long Island, various New Jersey locations and Pittsburgh.

-- There is speculation that ECW might receive the 2AM weekend timeslot currently held by the WWE A.M. RAW replay. Despite the late slot, the reply has managed to pull in TNA-level ratings, which means ECW would be viewed by a solid audience.

-- WWE was holding meetings about ECW throughout the day. Paul Heyman was actually forced to miss today's OVW show.

2am is the slot they'd have to have to recapture ANY of the old ECW style.

Really? I didn't even know it was on MSG. I usually caught the 4PM Saturday showing on 57NY or something like that...
