… and Mick Foley will be the color commentator.

Styles is announcing tonight’s Hardcore Homecoming event in Philly alongside Don “Cyrus” Callis.

In other ECW-related news:

– Paul Heyman was interviewed in the Miami Herald here. One quote: “It will help because it was the way it was designed,” said Heyman. “It can’t just be a nostalgia show. You have to have some current events involved. If it is just a look back with, ‘Hey here is this guy five years later,’ or, ‘Here is Balls and Axl. Remember them.’ At least now there is a current storyline going into the show. There is a new rivalry in ECW versus the Crusaders. It’s something new, something different, something fresh. It’s not going to affect the integrity of the actual matches that are taking place. It’s actually a match within itself. You’re going to see Rey versus Psychosis. You’re going to see Sabu, but we’re not going to tell you how you’ll see him. It’s not going to be affected by the Crusaders. There are other matches on this show that are just as important as the advertised ones. Obviously you know we’re going to get it on with these guys. We’re going to fight it out, but we’re not telling you when or how.”

– WWE is promoting the show at Hardcore Homecoming via a truck and signage.

– Shane Douglas was interviewed about Hardcore Homecoming on AudioWrestling.com.
