WWF just trashing WCW now in the ratings - also, check out the number of instances and ratings for Rugrats. THQ has 7 of the top 8, and 10 out of 15, on a go forward basis. AKLM is going to make a huge pile of money on Attitude coming out in May for PSX, although the N64 game has been pushed back some more.

THQ definitely had the rights to ECW, so Aklaim would have to make a deal for it. But the rumor was that THQ sold/transferred the rights to ECW to Take Two Interactive. Haven't heard anything more on that front since then. Enjoy the weekend.
