DOT NET DAILY WWE Smackdown/ECW tapings tonight in New York (correspondents needed), Sirius radio appearance, TNA contract note, WWE returning to Denver for the first time since the Debacle, AWA on ESPN Classic twice today By Jason Powell Aug 4, 2009 - 08:49 AM Email This Article | Printer Friendly Page Send Us News & Results | Back to Main Listing -The WWE Smackdown/ECW tapings take place tonight in Long Island, N.Y. at Nassau Coliseum. Jeff Hardy is advertised for the show after taking a rare weekend off the house shows. There are no dark matches advertised for the show on the arena website. Barring an unexpected switch, we will have live coverage of the Smackdown and ECW tapings tonight, but we are still looking for additional reports. If you can help, contact me at dotnetjason@gmail.com. -I will be appearing on the "Busted Open" radio show on Sirius satellite radio at 3:30 p.m. CT along with hosts Dave LaGreca and Doug Mortman. I had fun with the guys last time and I'm looking forward to appearing on the show again today. -Dot Net is now on Twitter.

He implied that he signed on for one year, but did not rule out a longer working relationship with the company. The original report came from Jeremy Borash's Twitter page, so I assume there was simply some miscommunication. You can check out Daivari's blog at ShawnDaivari.com. -WWE returning to Denver for the first time since the "Debacle" has generated some buzz in the area. A WWE spokesman told the AP that the Aug. 7 house show at the Denver Coliseum will feature four title matches. Of course, the scheduling conflict occurred with the Pepsi Center. You can read the article at 9news.com. -The following matches are listed for the 2:00 p.m. CT airing of the AWA on ESPN Classic: Hernandez vs. Larry Zbyszko, Davey Richards vs. Stan Hansen, Col.
