SCI-FI Happy With ECW?, Who Will Be Drafted?, More
Partial Source: The Wrestling Observer Newsletter
The Sci Fi network is said to still be happy with the ECW television show, as it still generates ratings higher than most of the shows on the network, and helps the network's weekly rating. The current contract expires this coming December.
With the draft lottery coming up on 6/11, here are some names that may be changing brands. There has been talk of Chris Benoit either moving to Smackdown or ECW. William Regal moving to Raw is a possibility, as he is friends with Triple H and wants to do singles, and move away from tag team competition. There has been discussions of moving Mr. Kennedy to Raw, but his logical next feud would be with Edge when he returns to action. Booker T moving to Raw also makes sense with the Smackdown roster strong on the heel side.
HBK vowed to still work the Judgment Day PPV against Randy Orton, but made the decision his knee was injured too seriously and suggested WWE script an injury angle to explain why he couldn't wrestle.
