According to the Wrestling Observer, WWE has gone to war in its attempt to recruit former ECW talent for the ECW PPV, tentatively schedule for 6/12.
With Shane Douglas planning an ECW reunion show on 6/10, WWE is using Tommy Dreamer to court wrestlers away from Douglas' show. WWE has reached out to a number of wrestlers who it feels might otherwise consider working the 6/10 event.
It is known that Sandman was personally offered $5,000 to work WWE's version of the ECW reunion. One can only assume that the other wrestlers contacted also received simiar four-figure offers.
However, in the case of The Sandman, who is already a multi-millionaire thanks to his work in construction, money may not be the selling point for him. He has stated on various occasions that he pretty much only wrestles for his friends who are booking shows now.
