Their main headline on the site after tonight's Orton-Flair match on Raw: "Orton Hears a Wooooo!"
Back in my dotcom days, by the way, we could never agree on our style on "Whoooo".
Is there an "h"? Isn't there? How many o's on first reference?

No H. H = Who. As in "Who is That".
No H = Wooo. As in "To Be the Man, you Gotta Beat the Man. Wooo!"
To me, the amount of ooo's is subjective, and would vary based on the intensity of the Woo. A normal Woo is just as I've typed it: "Woo". Anything more, and you start to kick it up a notch.
I would use "whoo", myself. Without an "h" it's not aspirated enough - the "whoo" that Flair gives is quite breathy.
When Flair says it, he says "Woo!", not "Hoo!" g_spot is right: No H needed.
In WWE's licensed card game Raw Deal (for which Comic Images lost the license at the end of 2007), it was spelled "Whoo!" for at least two different cards. Card titles were subject to WWE approval, because a card originally titled "Extremely Crappy Wrestling" had to be changed after WWE objected (this was shortly after the launch of their ECW brand, naturally). However, whether the powers-that-be would have an "H vs. no H" opinion or not is debatable; they may have simply left it the way the creators typed it up.
Flair himself has stated he thinks it is "Wooooo" without the "h". "H" would make it "who".
