ECW MUSIC QUESTION

By Scott Keith on May 16, 2014

Hi Scott,

So I know WWE network can't or won't get the rights fees for any ECW stars who used actual rock or rap songs as their entrance, thus they dubbed over them with corny generic songs. However, how did ECW get the rights to these songs to use them originally? I figure they didn't get the rights to them. And since they were such a small operation, were the bands not aware their songs were being used? Would the band Prong for example go after WWE if they let Justin Credible's entrance audio remain as is?

Thanks,

As noted many times, Paul Heyman simply used the music and hoped that no one in the music business would notice. That didn't work out well for him in the long run, obviously.
