ELW News & Notes

- Reportedly, ELW officials are not happy with Christophe Smit's poor attitude backstage and rumors are rampant that he may be suspended indefinitely after his match with Brandon Gabriel for making disparaging remarks about the company on a Chicago radio station when the company was hyping up their show in town on May 8th. Some reports suggest Smit could be fired as well, but we'll keep you posted on further developments.

- Word is that ELW will start doing one house show a month in June to increase revenue for the company and help pay the salaries of the new talent they have recently acquired.

- CW Networks has elected not to renew their deal for ELW's "Ignition" in the fall, citing that wrestling wasn't something they could sell to advertisers. Word is that Destination America may be picking up "Ignition" starting in September for a one year deal with options to renew the program if the ratings can stay above a 1.0.

- Word is that WGN executives were reportedly unhappy with the recent EWS World Death Match Title bout between Jonny Richter and The DeathStalker, strongly insisting that no more death matches of that nature ever take place on their network again. ELW officials have complied with the request and are looking to try and differentiate themselves from their counterparts down South as more of a wrestling company and relying less on shock value.

- Initial internal response to Ambrose Ulysses Beauregarde's new role in the company is one of optimism that he might provide the company with a host that can combat with PWR's El Chico and B.J. Jones.
