Apparently Tuesday night's abortion did a 2.8 rating. Also this came
in:

ECW founder Tod Gordon said the following about the TV debut of the
new ECW in a press release sent out today.

"I have received hundreds of calls and e-mails regarding what the
WWE's version of ECW looked like to me last night. Actually, nothing
about the show was surprising to me in any way. It was what it was;
a third brand extension of a stale wrestling product. If Paul Heyman
and Tommy Dreamer have to worry about serving all of these masters
from WWE creative (you know who I mean) to the Sci-Fi network, then
any fan must realize you're not going to get authentic crowd
reactions, let alone chants on basic cable. I assume that rather
than dub over the crowd's vulgarity, it was easier to just feed them
a crappy show so they could never get truly riled up. Enjoy it for
what it is, but don't fool yourselves into thinking that it really
IS possible to catch lightning in a bottle twice, because that is
not the case."
