UK UPDATE

Chyna's appearance on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno will air THIS Saturday (Feb 19) at 8pm on CNBC in the UK. For those analogue viewers who don't realise that they can receive this channel (you only need a Sky viewing card) see the Sky TV guide for tuning details. Meanwhile, those viewers with Sky Digital, simply use the EPG to find this channel.

In a correction to my latest column, WWF Raw would appear to be getting a release on Monday March 13. (My sources at a major record retailer have indicated that "WWF The Music Vol 5" is on their release schedule for this date, and that surely translates to WWF Raw.)

Finally, ECW Hardcore Revolution is slated for a UK release on ALL formats on Friday March 3, which of course is only a couple of weeks away. So it is going to be possible for all of us UK fans to simluate no-rope barbed wire death matches with staple guns, etc. COOL! Seriously, I view this as an opportunity to get ECW picked up properly in the UK (by that, I mean the TNN show and live PPV coverage). Simply, if we the fans can pop a big number for the videogame, even though their programming doesn't air in this country, ECW will have to sit up and take notice of the potential for screening their product in the UK. So I would urge all fans who weren't sure about buying Hardcore Revolution, due to the fact that they may be waiting for Smackdown in April, think of the wider context involved in the consequences of purchasing this game.
