velvetgoldmire Posted August 19 Report Share Posted August 19 Mankind. Anyone who can throw himself into barbed wire, fall onto explosives, land on thumbtacks, dislocate his shoulder, rupture his kidney, loose his ear, and still finish out the match while entertaining the crowd with actual moves and still be a great talker, all while being declared to be a "down to earth guy" is my kind of wrestler.

They went bankrupt, the employees moved onto different jobs, and now a lot of them are working for WWE, like RVD, Tommy Dreamer, Paul E Heyman... the other guys, like Dudleys, Raven, Lance Strom, etc, moved on before ECW went bankrupt. But, ECW got me back into the show after years of hating it.Some of my other old school fav's- Jake the Snake, Ricky the Dragon Steamboat, Killer Bees, British Bulldogs, Rowdy Roddy Piper, and Mr Wonderful Paul Orndorff... I loved it when I was a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaguero Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 My fav was the mexican wrestler Atlantis. That dude could fly and do all kinds of crazy shit. I remember he would leap sideways in between the ropes and all of sudden stop mid air grab the ropes do a flip sideways and return back to the ring.

velvetgoldmire Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Originally posted by vicman yeah, when i started watching wrestling again, i was delightfully surprised with ECW...their table matches, and chair matches are super!i didnt know the dudleys used to be in ecw. Oh yeah, that's where they started. They were based off of the Hansen Brothers from the movie Slapshot (hence the glasses). And there were a bunch of them. Bubba Ray Dudley, Devon Dudley, Little Spike Dudley, Big Dick Dudley... and like ten more... all half brothers of each other. My favorite out of all of them was Lil Spike Dudley. Mostly because I thought it was tricky and cool what he represented. Think of his initials, and then take into consideration that his finishing move was called the Acid Drop.Actually, ECW was the starting point for so many of the big name guys now. It was there that they made their name, and then went onto one of the big 2. Mick Foley, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Chris Jericho... before ECW, they were unknown to the US, pretty much.

I think I remember seeing Eddie Guerrero in mexican pro-wrestling before he made the move to ECW. ANywho, didnt know Mick Foley started off at ECW, and Chris Benoit was already in WWF when I started watching it again, so i didnt know he was ECW also.Yeah, those finishing moves are pretty funny at times, The Rocks finishing move is so funny, I can believe he can actually "finish" the other guy off what that move of his. its a lame move.

pluryou Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Stone Cold was also in ECW. Now he is in jail for domestic violence against his wife Debra. That sux he was good at his job. He screwed it up.

georgym Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Then there were the Samoan guys.Whenever someone would head butt them, it would have no effect, and they'd just shake their head and give this big silly :grin:I also remember a short, when they used to introduce wrestlers, they showed one of the Samoans at the beach, and a fish washed up to shore. The Samoan dude picked it up, and started eating the raw fish And of course, we can't forget George "The Animal" Steele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before he starts running around the ring, he takes off his elbow pad and throws it into the crowd. When he does that, the guy on the ground is so intimidated, he doesn't want to get up. He's done. Plus, Rock gets a lot of momentum going by running back and forth, and then when he does his little dance, he's stored up enough potential energy in his elbow to knock down a building.
