team, some wrestlers whom Heyman was high on are now getting de-pushed. He was high on the cruiserweights, who are now afraid of becoming a 'joke' again. Case in point, Funaki wins the CW title from seemingly nowhere, Paul London and Billy Kidman go from an intriguing feud on SmackDown to Velocity regulars, and Nunzio hasn't been seen since either.

-Ranjan Chibber, a friend of Paul Heyman's, who had a three month trial on the writing team, has resigned in the wake of Paul Heyman's dismissal from the writing team.

-Contrary to some rumors, the Dudleys are being held off TV solely in hopes of freshening their characters. They are not injured, nor do they have any heat backstage. There was some talk about an one-time-only ECW themed Pay-Per-View sometime early in 2005 where the Dudleys likely would've returned, but with Paul Heyman's removal from the creative team, one could assume that idea will remain just that.
