Shane Douglas not coming to ECW. Ever.
The good folks at Pro-Wrestling Insider have a transcript of Douglas on the Monday Night Mayhem show. Fans of “The Franchise” will undoubtedly be disappointed to know he in fact turned down an offer from ECW to stay with TNA wrestling, who pay him more than ECW offered, but will take solace in the fact that his personal life if back on track after kicking an addiction to Oxycontin.
There’s a great synopsis of Douglas’ career at Wikipedia, who have fast become the repository for all the knowledge of western civilization.
All the best to the original franchise player, we’ll miss you.
