Source Claims WWE’s Bringing Back ECW



Weeks after all discussions regarding the future of ECW came to a close, The Ottawa Sun reports that the plan is for WWE to bring back the ECW brand after WrestleMania.

“And we’re not talking about One Night Stand 2,” the article says. “WWE, apparently, has talked about putting the promotion on its own — keeping the integrity of ECW, small venues and all.”

In addition to remaining unconfirmed by other sources, this rumor comes at a very odd time. It had been recently reported that WWE was not planning to utilize the ECW brand for anything other than an annual PPV. While solid, the ECW PPV’s buyrate was hardly better than the average brand-only PPV, which likely came as a disillusionment to those hoping it would do record numbers. Both DVDs performed rather well, however.
