Raven has reached an agreement with ECW and is expected to appear at the Thursday night show in Queens. The deal comes after Raven was granted his release earlier this week by WCW. Raven immediately contacted ECW about making a return to the company.

Raven is a former ECW World Tag Team Champion (with Stevie Richards), and a former ECW World Heavyweight Champion.

Raven has been very vocal in recent weeks about his displeasure with WCW, and had said he was looking forward to the end of his contract, so he could make a return to ECW.

Eric Bischoff called a meeting of WCW wrestlers on Monday night prior to NITRO and confronted Raven about the comments and said if he (or anyone else) wasn't happy with their situation in WCW that they would be granted a release.

The ECW event in Queens will be a national TV taping for the new TNN show, "ECW on TNN". The first episode of the TNN show will air on Friday night, and will be an introduction to ECW with highlights and profiles of ECW's top stars. The first show will be hosted by Joey Styles, who will not have a broadcast partner on the debut show.

The footage from tonight's Queens show will be used for the next two TNN shows. Footage from the Toledo show that had been previously planned for TNN will be used instead on ECW's syndicated program, now being called "ECW Hardcore TV".

Dave Scherer and Jim Quigley will be at Queens and will have full coverage and digital photos on Friday.
