ECW Rating Is In, Vince's Reaction To RAW Rating, Lots More

I'm told that last night's 10/9 edition of ECW on Sci Fi drew a final 1.2 cable rating. This is the same rating the show drew last week on Sci Fi.

When word got out at yesterdays Smackdown/ECW tapings in Detroit about the very low rating for Raw on Monday (2.8), Vince McMahon reportedly didn't sell the low number to anyone at all and walked around as if nothing was any different. Many people within WWE were said to be shocked to see the number drop below the 3.0 range.

It should be noted that the last time Raw drew a 2.8 rating on a non-holiday was on December 15, 1997.

WWE came in sixth place for the 3rd Quarter for most requested tickets.

WWE superstar Batista will be holding a book signing on October 29th at Bookends in Ridgewood, New Jersey.

The main event for the October 17th SmackDown/ECW house show is being advertised as Batista, Undertaker & Kane vs. The Great Khali, Finlay, & Mark Henry. ECW World Championship CM Punk is also being advertised as taking on John Morrison. The event will take placed at the Manchester Evening News Arena in Manchester, England.
