Least ecw championship match
1. Elimination chamber ecw champion
2. Mr. McMahon vs bobby Lashley
Personally I've never liked the Douglas/Snow match from Wrestlepalooza
Shane was injured & really shouldn't have been wrestling at this stage. This is when Taz should have won the belt in an impromptu match or have Snow(who was really over with that ECW crowd) win the belt.
I agree with you

What are Best & Worst ECW World Heavyweight Title Matches?
Personal Favorite was Terry Funk/Sabu at Born To Be Wired 1997
You are welcome james
We made it
During the ECW Championship's run under the WWE banner, when would you consider it to no longer be a "World Championship"?
Once they scrapped the old design & brought in the Big Silver belt
@@WeAreProWrestling I kinda feel the same. I saw the start when after Bobby Lashley was forced to vacate it they dropped “World” from the name, then when as champion Chaco Guerrero entered the 2008 Royal Rumble giving off the hint that the title wasn’t being considered a world title anymore, and them when they brought in the big silver belt is when it was official for me that it was now a secondary title.
My only 2 questions related to the original lineage, so nothing post 2001.
What title win in ECW's original lineage, specifically the match itself albeit you can link the champion in this too, was the weakest or most questionable?
My other question is due to Shane Douglas's injury streak did Taz win the ECW title a couple months too late than the intent?
1. Probably Sandman beating Stevie for Raven's belt
2. It wasn't Shane's injuries per se that delayed Taz getting the belt, it was Paul choosing to make it into a story that delayed it
My favorite ecw champion was RVD second is hands down CM Punk least favorite is Vince obviously
V.A.C.A.N.T. was not able to hold the original ECW World Title. It was only in 2007 when ECW was acquired by WWE that V.A.C.A.N.T. won it.
Al hail the great Vacant
Why didn't RVD ever get the belt while ECW was its own entity? Seems like a no brainer. I know he was the TV champ, but still.
Him getting injured in early 2000 derailed him winning the World Title as TV Champion
And then once he came back, for reasons I'm still not sure of, they kept the belt on Credible
Then he stopped showing up for shows in October because he wasn't getting paid
Before suggesting it I looked in past episodes and you haven’t done one. Since you did the ECW title that means in the future the WCW title should get an episode.
I've already kind of covered the WCW Title when I talked the Big Gold Belt
The only champions I didn't talk about was 1 of Luger's reigns, 2 of Sting's reigns, Ron Simmons, Vader, & 1 of Flair's reigns; because those were during the 91-94 title design
@@WeAreProWrestling oh right you did. I was looking through your videos with anything “WCW” in the title. Guess that’s why I forgot.
How successful do you think ECW would be if it was around today?
Had ECW survived in 2001 they would be ROH right now
What? You're not gonna mention Christian or Matt Hardy? In my opinion those two had the best runs with the 'big silver belt.'
My least favorite ECW Champion has to be Ezekiel Jackson favorite has to be Sandman. P. S What do you the UA-camr Original Wrestling Documentaries ?
I'm not too familiar with their work; would have to check them out to see
@@WeAreProWrestling They cover NWA.
@@savagedarksider5934 I'll have to check out the channel at some point
A damn shame RVD got injured cause I'm sure he would've been ECW Champ by the summertime. Do you think he would've been champ for long cause I heard he did have some pay disputed with Heyman in late 00 and was out shooting a movie.
Given the Awesome situation, he probably would have been champion in April had he not gotten injured. He would have gotten a decent run with it for sure; don't know how long though.
