Smackdown gets screwed once again
From 411 wrestling:
- Dusty Rhodes has been moved to the ECW creative team. Head ECW writer Dave Lagana apparently asked for Rhodes to be moved from Smackdown to ECW during a recent meeting with Vince & Stephanie McMahon. One of the reasons Lagana wanted Rhodes to be moved is so that he could help him come up with new ideas for ECW due to increased competition from WSX. Smackdown has, in the eyes of most, improved greatly with Michael Hayes and Dusty Rhodes writing the shows, so it remains to be seen how him going to ECW will impact ECW and Smackdown.

Oh snaps BayBAY the dweem in back in E Cee Dubya! In all seriousness though Dusty is a pretty good booker ( See Edge's shock title win) but I dunno if he can save ECW, though I do admit the Originals vs the new breed does seem pretty cool.

Writers also handle the house shows I think.
I wouldn't worry about WSX, they are too over the top (guys getting electrocuted and shoved into tanks with piranhas).

Re: Smackdown gets screwed once again
Dont they just do the same matches and feuds for house shows?
Maybe different ones cause its ECW and they dont want to have some people on the road all the time I assume..

Yeah, there are several ECW wrestlers just appearing on the house shows. They also do things like bikini contests.

Actually, Hayes was the booker. Rhodes was probably just helping.
