If you watched the ECW commercials you knew that Terry Gordy was in ECW. They kept plugging the Extreme Warfare Vol. 2 videotape. It was the tape that had Kimona Wanalaya stripping on a stage at the ECW arena. "The Battle of the Bam Bams" match was one of the matches, it also had a match of Sabu vs. Chris Jericho.

Saying "no-one thinks of Colin Delaney" while having to have thought of Colin Delaney to include him in the video (even tongue-in-cheek) is certainly a paradox.
I met Scott Steiner at a convention a few months ago. There was a Q&A session which also featured Jimmy Hart. During the Q&A I asked Scott about his time in ECW. He insisted he only worked one match there. I knew better, but he's Scott Steiner and even at his current age and the fact that in the photo we took together I am clearly 3-4 inches taller than him, he's still intimidating as hell and I wasn't going to question him any further about it 😂 For the record he said that after his one match there the check didn't clear and that's why he never returned. 🤷♂️

@@deadeyedarwin the whole point of this video was about wrestlers who showed up in ECW, and Road Warrior Hawk was one of them who you’d never have thought to have made an appearance in ECW

I seem to remember Ricky Morton having a match in ECW where he got busted up big time. Like it was difficult to watch, I think it may have been New Jack or Sandman maybe?
5:50 "As for the other two [Neidhart] matches, they were against a certain Rockin' individual" Rockin Robin had two matches against Jim Neidhart in ECW?
I wonder if there would be enough for a Top 10 group of wrestlers leaving one promotion to another simultaneously. All I can think now is Hart/Dynamite/Davey Boy/Neidhart...The Radicalz.....the WCW/ECW talent exchange 94-95.....
@@austinbowman7930 true! But i actually meant a case where BOTH the parent and the child wrestled in ECW. Jim Neidhart wrestled in ECW back in the day and Natalya started wrestling on ECW in like 2010. (it was technically WWECW tho so maybe that doesnt count lol)
I know you're British, Adam, so you may only know the Flintstones in passing ( Still a nice reference), but, Bam Bam was Barney’s son, so, technically he would be Bam Bam Rubble.
Even if you didn't know it shouldn't be surprising. ECW was the (distant) #3 biggest wrestling promotion in the US, chances are if a big name wasn't signed to WWF or WCW at a given time they'd show up in ECW for the paycheck.
I think OL' KLANVIL was in every company that would help support his coke habit and there wasn't a better place to support a budding coke habit than ECW.
Without memphis there would be no onita or ecw and you forgot the british bulldog and kerry von erich and kevin sullivan appearance in ecw he wasn't with wcw at the time why he also worked for smokey mountain and toured japan
My nephew: uncle Andy, what's the brawl for all Me: well, nephew... Jim cornette: fucking Vince Russo. Me: he's 8, dude. Let's let him be a kid a few more years. It was a bad idea, bud. Let's just leave it at that.

It's bam bam rubble not Flintstone he was Barney's kid 😂😂

Sid was awesome in ECW
Marty Jannetty was damn underrated
Beautiful Bobby Eaton had a brief run as well as Christopher Daniels, who almost scored a major upset win over Rhino.
Colin delaney was my brooklyn brawler when I was a kid😂 so at least one person thinks of him

I can already tell you straight out the gates that I did not know Gangrel was in ECW. Imagine being that oblivious to the fact that youre a Smark
Is there any footage of that Marty Jannety/Eddie Guerrero match? That sounds amazing!
Not sure if it's the same match, but there is a Jannetty/Guerrero match on the WWE Network - under ECW supershows, Enter The Sandman 1995.
Saying "no-one thinks of Colin Delaney" while having to have thought of Colin Delaney to include him in the video (even tongue-in-cheek) is certainly a paradox.

Disagree

Wait was that Tazz with the stiners? Suplexes for everyone!
After reading the comments, feels like there has to be a Part 2 video🤔😏😏😏. This was great didn't know majority of them did 🤔🤷🏽♂️😮👍🏽

Rodney Mack was also in ECW. If you remember him. He was in Da Baldies. A faction of bald guys.
they got the idea from
the movie
THE WANDERERS
that had a gang called
THE BALDIES
their leader TERROR
was played by the guy that
was DYNAMO in the movie
THE RUNNING MAN
Colin Delaney still wrestles & is the manager of a Heroes Hideout location in the mall down the street from where I work.

🤣
Because he records them one at a time
I wonder if there would be enough for a Top 10 group of wrestlers leaving one promotion to another simultaneously. All I can think now is Hart/Dynamite/Davey Boy/Neidhart...The Radicalz.....the WCW/ECW talent exchange 94-95.....
I have to admit, I'm surprised that I only knew about one of these, that being Gangrel.
It kinda makes since with Kevin Thorne being in wwECW,I had no idea Gangrel was in ECW.
honorable mention for da FMW marks W*ing Kanemura also had a few ecw matches
I've always wanted to go back and watch old ECW just to see all the appearances from non-originals
You forgot the One Man Gang (as an official entry rather than an offhand comment) and Tommy Rogers of the Fantastics as well.
Marty did what I wish Shawn would have been in WWF,WCW,and ECW
I had no idea there was ever a wrestler called "Amish Roadkill" wtf!!!😅
Chickens!
Yeah. He was mainly a tag partner to Danny Doring.... CHICKENS!!!!!!!
Might as well called himself hit by a horse
Def knew all these dudes were in ecw
I love these lists
What about King Kong Bundy, & I believe even Iron Sheik?
That thumbnail makes it look like one of them is the illegitimate love child of Mr. Perfect and Nicole Bass.
That’s gangrel buddy lol did you not watch raw is war around like 99ish?

david gangrel health in ecw was quick
thanks!
I think OL' KLANVIL was in every company that would help support his coke habit and there wasn't a better place to support a budding coke habit than ECW.
Like just for the way Jake Roberts showed up at the event's description lol
Jake Probably was looking through sandman's street clothes before he showed up
Hold on, there’s no such thing as a “terrible” Vincent Price movie...
Shocked with the fact that Double A was in ECW at one point of time (even if it was to copromote a WCW show)
Its not really fair to say he ever was
Bam Bam was a Rubble.
good video
Too bad Paul didn't wanna pay them
Taking a swing at Colin Delaney….shame on you Cultaholic😂

Bret Hart wrestled terry funk in ecw. Arn Anderson was in ecw and so was Bobby eaton. So was Jimmy snuka.
Bam bam was a rubble not a Flintstone bro. Tht was Barneys kid not freds
I think of Colin Delanay a lot, tbh.
If Justin Credible is the Cliq’s 5th Beatle what does that make X-Pac?
This is a really well structured list, props to the writer there’s some brilliant segueways.
Gangrene in ECW looks like Mr. Perfects twin who was diagnosed with downs

Isn’t Bam Bam Barney Rubble’s kid?
Bam Bam [Rubble]
Rubble, Bam Bam Rubble.
Can anybody give me the ring names of old wwf, wcw, ecw wrestlers A-Z??
Ricky Morton
Tommy Rich
The Bushwhackers
PG-13

ECW was very old school, just turned up a few notches. Memphis and Florida influences for sure!
Why Marty beating those guys was a shock? Lol
Bam Bam Rubble not Flintstone. Tut tut, haha
You missed SID VICIOUS!
Of course Scott Hall lost to Big Sal. He was no match for the Capo Di Tutti Capi! 😆 🔥 🇮🇹
