- Plans are getting underway for the special ECW PPV coming on June 12th. WWE doesn't want it to be an old-timers show but rather a show that hopefully can stand on it's own as WWE would like to do more ECW-related shows in the future. WWE is trying to find a balance between former ECW talents that can still go like Rey Mysterio or Nunzio and talents that are broken down and older like Sabu or Mick Foley. In the case of beat down talent, WWE is trying to find ways to hide their current weakness and to book them properly so that they don't come off bad. The ECW fans will expect a lot and they don't want to leave them disappointed with bad matches.
- WWE brass are having conversations with former ECW announcer Joey Styles and are trying to come to an agreement with him. He is slated to announce for Shane Douglas' show the night before. If Styles doesn't announce on the ECW PPV, Tazz, Paul Heyman or Terry Funk seem to be the front runners to commentate for the show.
- An FBI "family reunion" seems to be in the works as Nunzio (Little Guido), JT Smith, Tony Mamaluke, Tracy Smothers, Big Sal E. Graziano, and Big Guido are all slated to appear.
- Tickets are set to go on sale on the weekend of May 14.
The ballroom WWE will be using has approx. 2500 seats, so tickets will be incredibly limited and many fans will be left out in the cold. Prices haven't been determined yet.
