"WWE Chief Operating Officer Michael Sileck announced during their First Quarter Earnings Release conference call this morning that the second annual ECW December to Dismember PPV has been pulled from the WWE schedule and will not take place, citing the fact that three PPVs in five weeks is "just too much."
Last year's December to Dismember PPV did an abysmal buyrate coming at the end of a similar period of several PPVs, despite having an Elimination Chamber main event. The execution of that event, which featured only two advertised matches as well as a PPV event that went off the air after only two hours and 10 minutes, led to the expulsion of Paul Heyman as the lead writer for the ECW brand.
This year's edition of the PPV was scheduled to take place in Charlotte, North Carolina."
