To all the wrestling blogs and news sources that claimed The Sci-Fi channel wasn’t going to renew ECW for the 2008 season, we have a little something to say to you:

We. Told. You. So.

That’s right. As we predicted, The Sci-Fi Channel is happy to have ECW on their roster and the current ECW/RAW crossover storylines aren’t fueled by Vince’s desperate attempt to save the brand. ECW may not be a strong ratings performer compared to network television hits, but they blow away the competition in their time slot for the main target demographic.

From the news release:

SCI FI Channel and World Wrestling Entertainment® today announced that the hit program, ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling®, will continue on the network through 2008.

WWE is also the producer of the No. 1 weekly basic cable TV series, “Monday Night RAW®” on USA Network.

This year (Jan-Sept), SCI FI has been the #1 cable network for men ages 18-34 in ECW’s Tuesday 10pm time period.
