Submitted by Daniel Pena on Wednesday, April 20, 2005 at 2:01 AM EST







• C.W. Anderson has been added to the list of former ECW wrestlers to appear on the ECW PPV on June 12th. Anderson worked an episode of Sunday Night Heat and an episode of Velocity one weekend last November as enhancement talent.
  
  
• Jakks Pacific has yet another installment of classic WWF figures lined up for later this year. Two new series are in the works and here are the wrestlers that will have figures.
  
  Classic Superstars Series 7, (scheduled to be released in July) will feature British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith, Harley Race, Andre the Giant (younger Andre with big hair), Superstar Graham, Don Muraco, Jimmy Hart, The Ultimate Warrior, and Gorilla Monsoon.
  
  Classic Superstar Series 8 (scheduled for this October) features Hulk Hogan (Wrestlemania 1 look), another Hulk Hogan figure, Vader, Bob Orton, Fred Blassie, Hulk Hogan (NWO look), Bruiser Brody, Jerry Lawler, and Chief Jay Strongbow.
  
  These will be Hulk Hogan's first figures for the classics lineup. Jakks says that they'll be releasing many different Hogan figrues as he's had so many looks and they want to offer all the variations.
  
  Also, the deceased Bruiser Brody worked some WWWF matches in the 1970's so he did work for WWE at one point.
  
  
• In ratings news, Velocity's return did an 0.4 cable rating, with an 0.9 share, Heat did a 0.8 cable rating, with a 1.4 share and WWE Experience did an 0.4 cable rating, with a 1.2 share.
