from the Observer:
WWE has signed perennial WCW Saturday Night wrestler Brad Armstrong to a contract. He is expected to actually wrestle for ECW, mostly on house shows though. He'll mainly be used to help put talent over and to give the younger wrestlers tips. Armstrong is 45 years old.
REJOYCE!!!! THE CURSE WILL LIVE ON!!!

Maybe they can team up and be the new jobber tag team the FBI beat several times a week now that Ryan O'Riley is in the doghouse.

If they make him the Candyman again, all is right in the world.

Groovy.
So when does Buzzkill debut on Sci-Fi?
Buzzkill for "Who Wants to be a Superhero!"
Okay, seriously...it is neat to see "The Candyman" Armstrong get some attention from WWE. Who knows what he may teach to the new guys.

Good to see Brad Armstrong being signed. I'll miss seeing him in my local indy fed, though. Great wrestler. I hope I get to see him on ECW tv at least once.

A jobber Battle Royal without Stevie Richards, Scotty 2 Hotty, and Val Venis is just not right.

They so need to have him wrestle as Arachnaman one week, Badstreet the next, Buzzkill the next, Candy Man the next, and so on.

They only did this because they are trying to get the Southeastern Championship Wrestling tape archive, which is owned by Bullet Bob. Let's face it.
That's also why they allowed Kevin Von Erich on RAW as a "legend" despite never appearing in WWE, and why Verne Gagne was put in the Hall of Fame. They were trying to buy the AWA and World Class tape libraries respectively. WWE always pulls this crap.
