I hope Paul was furious that show was by far the worst show in the entire history of ECW. It was pathetic. I love Tazz the wrestler but as an announcer he is to WWE for me. They need to let Joey Styles carry the product as bad as it is.

Inside ECW news

While Paul Heyman is still at the forefront of the new ECW, his influence has been lessened in recent weeks, reports the Wrestling-Observer.

Much of the WWE creative team has gotten involved with planning the brand’s launch, which has resulted in a minor loss of power for Heyman and a major loss of power for Tommy Dreamer.

There were also some disputes over how to book the ECW launch, specifically with regards to whether ECW should be allowed to dominate on the weekly RAW telecast.

A positive start for ECW

The debut edition of ECW on Sci-Fi posted a 2.8 rating with a 4 share. That number is well above expectations and resulted in a major sigh of relief at WWE Headquarters.

While that rating is certainly strong, it is important to note that the show’s performance cannot truly be evaluated until the WWE vs. ECW storyline comes to an end. For the time being, it is impossible to ignore the involvement of Cena and Edge as a ratings booster

I'd be mad too if I had a great product and someone else adds something stupid and irrelevent to it (WWE).
