Press release from WCW.com
--Tickets are on sale now for the return of World Championship Wrestling with the Big Bang pay-per-view on Sunday, May 6. WCW owner Eric Bischoff has announced that the event will be offered through iN DEMAND on pay-per-view. The show will originate from Las Vegas.
--It has been confirmed that the WCW World Title, the United States title, the Cruiserweight title, and the World Tag Team titles will be on the line at Big Bang.
--In addition, WCW will stipulate that no one can hold two of the company’s belts at the same time for the sake of competition. Booker T has notified WCW he plans to defend the world title at Big Bang and will forfeit the United States title.
I will deactivate the cruiserweight tag team titles until I can get, at the least, a two-hour show OR a second show for an eventual brand split. I will also look to bring back the World TV title in the near future and keep that exclusive to those workers that are not perceived as major stars.
