You and me both dude...I’m just happy other originals like Jerry Lynn, New Jack, Ian Rotten, John Kronus, Steve Corino etc didn’t take Vince’s paycheck to job to his fairy queens in WWECW
That’s absolutely crazy how that company still has such an elite cult following since it went bust over 20 years ago It’s been out of business longer than it was IN business. Crazy stuff Too young to watch ECW original but I’ve got some great memories of ECW WWE Went to shit when it went PG
From what I can see after all the articles I’ve read and videos I’ve watched, what Heyman really needed was someone to handle the business side of things so that he could focus on the creative aspects. If he had hired a professional to manage the accounts, ECW probably would’ve lasted a lot longer.
@@shadow_ax I understand some of the checks he drew as payment to his wrestlers actually bounced. If true, how the heck did he escape prosecution for issuing such worthless checks??
@@charleswalker8262 it failed because those “die hard” fans weren’t providing enough money to keep the business afloat. Are you telling me that had they performed the same kind of show they put on at Last Stand 2006 year round in the mainstream that ECW couldn’t have lived on its original spirit? Just because they failed at bringing it to the mainstream doesn’t mean it didn’t belong there there is no reason why something as great as ECW couldn’t have been the Norm
I am only 23 but I am lucky enough to have been born and raised and still live in my opinion the greatest sports and pro wrestling city ever Philadelphia, was lucky enough to go to a few shows with my dad back in 99 and 2000 at an age which I probably shouldn't of been watching ECW but none the less I am happy I got to go to live shows at the ECW Arena
I loved Mike Awesome and Masato Tanaka, but my most favorite ECW Wrestlers are the ECW Originals, which is Sandman, RVD, Sabu, and Tommy Dreamer, because they were the ones that made ECW its success back in the day. ECW in 201 should've ended with Sabu and RVD as the last ECW Tag Team Champions, Sandman as the ECW Television Champion, and Tommy Dreamer as the ECW Champion.
+Codyman I do agree with ya Mike Awesome despite pulling a dick move and being unprofessional by jumping ship to WCW which they made him look like an idiot later anyway (WCW did) while he was ECW World Heavyweight Champion I liked Mike Awesome and I love Masato Tanaka he's probably my favorite Japanese wrestler of all-time, I also love Sabu, RVD, Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman but they weren't the only ECW Originals anyone and everyone that was ever in that ring in the original ECW be it ref, trainer, doctor, wrestler, manager, valet, booker, TV Persona, producer, etc, etc, etc, etc, was an ECW Original they are the original ECW guys and gals
+Codyman and their are a lot more people to contribute to ECWs popularity and success such as Terry Funk, "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, Raven, The Public Enemy, The Dudleys (all 9 of them), Rey Mysterio Jr., Psychosis, Super Crazy, Mick Foley, Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero, The Pitbulls, Taz, Chris Jericho, the name we do not speak of even Chris Benoit, The FBI, Mikey Whipwreck, 2 Cold Scorpio, Chris Candido, Bam Bam Bigelow, as you said Mike Awesome and Masato Tanaka and so so many more
I started watching ECW on the TV and was blown away. Got to watch it live at the old Elk's Lodge on Queens Boulevard. One late Saturday night early Sunday morning, some friends were hanging out at my home and I introduced them to ECW & they were also blown away. I still have the ECW video game for Playstation. Classic memories!
Remembering my Grandparents days &nights sitting around the table having dinner then setting the table on fire play acting each other fighting the Dudley brothers .Ecw Remembers
Austin Dickerson that’s what I’m currently watching atm and it’s pretty awesome 😎 wish I watched it back then but thanks to the network I’m able to watch it all back
Always remember hearing this for the first time when WWE were doing the invasion and all the ECW wrestlers coming through the crowd. After that, I had to know more about ECW and my mind was blown.
TNN (The Nashville Network) NEVER went of business. It was just rebranded most recently by it's parent company, Viacom, from SPIKE to The Paramont Network.
I hope to God that 2K brings back the ability to upload your own songs in 2k21 so I could use this for a Revived ECW show in my Universe as a separate brand, but done right.
Cena vs RVD one of the coolest matches ever! Cena was a Heel he said it was most hostile crowd he's ever worked with. RVD thought it was hilarious how the fans were treating Cena
Funny thing is I’ve also been looking up old ads for ECW pay per views. Really wish I had watched the original ECW when it was on the air. I foolishly was all about WWF at the time.
We’re talking 90s. It feels like a lifetime ago and in some ways it was. The world was a different place entirely. We got what we were given in news, products, sports, movies, food and entertainment as a whole. It was pre internet days (for the most part) and we appreciated what was available and had to make an effort to be on time to view the things we had exposure to. On the wrestling front it was always WCW and WWF and you had to pick one. Unless you were local… you weren’t really going to see much of the indies and it was work to find out information on them.… then along comes ECW. It gave us something a hell of a lot more edgy content and crazy stunts. Most things felt like a shoot but you knew they were still scripted (or did you?). I don’t care what anyone says… ECW was the indirect reason for the attitude era. They bloody started it. They made noise and were heard by the big two (at the time). We were hooked. While we clicked from nitro to raw and couldn’t make up our minds from one week to another (and just tried to enjoy both shows), we always loved what ECW gave us. It was an access to something far more raw and crazy. When their stars started moving to the bigger two promotions, we knew they were the business. ECW was a promotion you you’ll have appreciated a lot more during its time. It will always be difficult for a young person to really understand it today (but that isn’t a knock on young people). The reason is that we are exposed to so much now and the world has come a long long way since the 90s. Everyone is smart now and everyone has an opinion. Our expectations are very high on all fronts.
Ecw had a lot of things going for it. Things like introducing lucha libre to the American audience and having some of the best matches and czw is just overglorifed violence

Ecw one night stand in 2006 had a very good run,I'm glad I watched Ecw in 2006 when I was 11 years old .
It went out of business in 2010
@@brandonmoucatel9630 As a company it went out in 2001 aka The original ECW. The WWE ECW shut down in 2010 as a WWE brand
That’s absolutely crazy how that company still has such an elite cult following since it went bust over 20 years ago
It’s been out of business longer than it was IN business. Crazy stuff
Too young to watch ECW original but I’ve got some great memories of ECW WWE
Went to shit when it went PG
Paul Heyman was really a genius for ECW everything was perfect,the wrestlers,the theme songs,the matches just perfect.
looks like AEW's Tony Khan is taking a little of ECW & WCW,
and molding it to his own , maybe some WWF, but who knows.
@@Kromattthe biggest aquisition he could get is Paul himself everything would be perfect again !!!

Paul heyman is a pos. After creating all this bs he says he doesn't care about brain damage

My girl said no to this being our wedding song. I'm gonna miss her.
thaha
Your better off without her, she needs to understand REAL music
If she can't walk down that main line like she's extreme then she ain't for u🟣💜
Bro if you need a best man, I’m available
you killed her over a damn theme song......idiot
When you walking down some steps anywhere in the world
Everytime I’m at a show going to my seats my mind alternates between this and the shield theme haha
Or Sandman's 🍺
Who misses ECW 😢
Right
Bro I came outta my room into a dark hallway then went downstairs and took a shit under the stairs.
Man Do I MISS The Late 90s and Early 2000s!!! Someone Please Build a Time Machine so We ALL Can Go Back!!!!
yes indeed !
Generic nostalgia cringe comment
So many fond memories attached to this. Long live ECW.
Calling it now this is gonna be the song Paul hayman is induced into the hof to
You called it!
Oh wow.
This song reminds me of ECW one night stand 2006 cena vs rvd and edge foley vs dreamer and funk the best ppv till date
This song never gets old!!!
The WWE'S ECW was nothing but a SHELL of its former self........and in my heart, The Original ECW will live FOREVER in our hearts.
It was an interesting attempt to bring ecw to the mainstream crowd

only thing with philly is we threw snowballs at santa
i am 25 was born with ECW and WWF and WCW wars
I started watching ECW on the TV and was blown away. Got to watch it live at the old Elk's Lodge on Queens Boulevard. One late Saturday night early Sunday morning, some friends were hanging out at my home and I introduced them to ECW & they were also blown away. I still have the ECW video game for Playstation. Classic memories!
Along with WWE in the 90's with WCW I also grew up watching ECW as well and from there wrestling was the best thing to happen in childhood.
When you comfront you're bully.
Oof
Now this is the version that should've always been 💯
Congrats to Paul Haymen to be going into this Years Hall of fame!!! The HOME OF ECFW!!!

First heard this song when Stephanie heyman and Shane walked out to it. Dope song.
23 years later and this music still gives me adrenaline 😊

E C FUCKIN W hell yea best theme song to a wrestling show in my opinon
ECW! ECW! ECW! ECW!
Kids will never know what EC-Fucking-W is
Imagine hearing this at the royal rumble as a surprise entrant and the sandman comes out
Gone but never forgotten ecw lives forever
ECW > Current Raw & Smack Down
CZW has been a good spiritual successor but still nothing like classic ECW.
OH MY GOD !!!!!!!!! Please bring back ecw with the original wrestlers
If only that were to happen
Watch czw its pretty good
This theme makes me to do a Vandaminator to random people on the road
Best wrestling ever
ECW FOR LIFE
Feels like smashing a steel chair at someone listening to this!!!
This shit makes me want to dive through a table
I hope to God that 2K brings back the ability to upload your own songs in 2k21 so I could use this for a Revived ECW show in my Universe as a separate brand, but done right.
Makes me want to dive into the dining table
Set on fire, of course
My favorite ECW superstar was the insane luchador super crazy!!
sandman hands down!
RVD?
The Franchise
I'm dancing at night with this theme😂😂
Yo me too
I want to invade RAW with ECW and five star frog splash vince McMahon!!
i like to throw steel chairs
I’d like to slam him through a Flaming Table
As I said the ecw never backs down from anybody ( theme plays)
Cena vs RVD one of the coolest matches ever! Cena was a Heel he said it was most hostile crowd he's ever worked with. RVD thought it was hilarious how the fans were treating Cena
The tribe of extreme has risen again!!!!!
I miss ECW doing a review of Barely Legal 1997. #ECW
Best Ever Theme !!!!!!!!!
Would be cool if this years Extreme Rules had this as the intro song but with Heyman saying EXTREME… RULES!!!!
ECW ECW ECW.....I got my VHS tapes!
Paul Heyman Hall Of Fame ☝️
Aew needs to put ecw superstar in the game
Here's to all of us that would stay up late and chanel surf looking for ECW on tv
ECW fans were more passionate
I have my own ECW events on wwe 2k18 with my own roster
Noice
Same with me
We all know this is where the real badass wrestlers went
Funny thing is I’ve also been looking up old ads for ECW pay per views. Really wish I had watched the original ECW when it was on the air. I foolishly was all about WWF at the time.

Yep CZW is just stupidity on steroids
JEEZUS
This is the greatest WWE/ECW originals theme arena effects theme song of all time in the WWE/ECW history. 💯💪👍😊🎶
They should have Paul take over the NXT and rebrand it into ECW
As long as Triple Hace is in charge, 🙅♂️ 😐
Triple H is the reason why he made NXT a huge success on digital streaming media. Soon to air live on the USA Network.
No don't rebrand it under the ecw name. People saw what happened when ecw was resurrected in 06
Hell yeah.
The irony if this happened, WWECW got replaced by NXT
Deveria volver ECW le daba mucha importancia ala lucha libre mexicana.
Best theme
Reminds me of the beginning of every time I die by children of bodom
THIS IS AN EXTRRRRRREMEEEEE
Don’t mind me, I’m just returning to this awesome theme song. E C DUB! E C DUB! E C DUB!
When you and the boys are walking down the stairs into a bar together
Me and the boys when someone hurts our homie.
thissss extreemeee
Without ECW there wouldn’t be a Attitude Era.
I wanna smash a beer can against my forehead.
I wanna pile drive a dummy through a table!
I want to be in a triple threat with sabu and rvd match stipulation brabwire and sticks and tables
I wanna jump off a 30ft Scaffold
This theme song is so cool
ECW should've invaded WCW
1:00 that drop
