...Paul Heyman from ECW. Paul was (and is until they officially close up shop) the brains behind the scenes for ECW. He has not signed a contract with WWF and it looks like he won't until the ECW situation is solved. Heyman will be in the color commentator seat tonight.
The WWF has lobbied hard behind and in front of the scenes for Heyman to join their booking team as chief booker (behind Vince McMahon, natch). Paul will most likely boost some midcarders like Raven and Chris Jericho and give them a huge push.
In related news, it appears that the "Smackdown!" team will be the same that has been working "WWF Heat" on MTV: Michael Cole and the already hard working Tazz. Way to go, Tazz!

sucks that Lawler is gone...
there was a kick ass toy of him that was suppose to come out soon, to bad now that he has been released, his toy will never see the light of day.
as for the ECW invasion. i wonder how the rest of the ECW wrestlers will be involved, if they will be. such as dreamer. but i expect a big push for raven, justin, and other recent ecw stars. i wonder what push the dudleys will get.
