HBO will be sending a camera crew to interview fans about their favorite wrestling memories and will also be filming portions of the event for inclusion in an upcoming project. I am not yet aware of what the project is or what the focus of it will be, positive or negative, about professional wrestling.
A number of former WCW personnel are involved in the WWL event from a backstage perspective. David Penzer will be working as ring announcer, Craig Leathers has been tapped to direct the event, and even Doug Dillinger has been hired to head up security at the event. Former WCW Magazine editor Colin Bowman is on board in a production capacity as well. The PPV taping is being organized by Sal Corrente, who put together last year's Wrestlereunion events in Florida and Pennsylvania.
