Mike Awesome was the man.

Krispy, you should check out FMW. It's where Masato Tanaka and Mike Awesome got there start, and there's some incredible hardcore stuff and good wrestling there. You want the true originators of Hardcore Wrestling, it's FMW.

Plus, you've got Hayabusa there, who was crazy good.

And he may have come too late in the company's run, but Rhino being a viscous son of a bitch was great to watch in the beginning.

I liked it when he beat the shit out of women.

I also liked it when he was just a fat chubby kid when he came in.

I liked it the most when he admitted years after the fact that when he was TV Champ, he was living in a trailer.

GOOORRREEE!

Jerry Lynn has to be one of the most underrated wrestlers during his time in ECW.

Rhyno was a fucking beast.

Also Joel Gertner = $$$ on the mic. Shame he was 'too dirty' for the mainstream promotions.

Tanaka/Awesome from November 99 is one of my favorite matches ever.

I remember watching ECW at 4 pm on tuesdays on WGTW Channel 48 serving Burlington and Philadelphia.

ECW was mostly shit. I remember the good stuff fondly, but it was like finding a gold nugget in the toilet sometimes.

ECW was too violent which lead fans to want more violence. Those fans went to the league that was offering the most violence and now that's why UFC is king. ECW ruined it all.

Cornette was right! He was right!

Now all the ECW guys are broken down and nobody actually benefits from the ECW name except the WWE. If they were going to whore out professional wrestling they should have at least made more money.

Dayton, OH in the same arena where Shane Douglas beat 2 Cold Scorpio for the NWA title, then proclaimed it the ECW Title (it was still Eastern Championship Wrestling but Todd Gordon had already passed control to Heyman)..

One of the greatest moments in wrestling history..
