Earlier today, the WhatCulture Wrestling YouTube channel uploaded a video titled "9 Times ECW Was Better Than Literally EVERYTHING". It covers several memorable ECW moments including The Sandman's return in 1999 as well as the 1997 show when Tommy Dreamer finally defeated Raven. *
(* Side note: This actually isn't true as Dreamer pinned Raven at a house show early in Raven's start with the company - but this was before Raven appeared on ECW Hardcore TV.)
In addition to the 9 moments listed in this video, what are some of your favorite ECW moments which made the promotion very compelling to you.
Wow, these ECW moments are truly iconic. Watching the video gave me major nostalgia, and getting a chance to share my favorite moments makes it even more fun.When a wrestler grabbed the mic and started singing his theme song in front of the crowd, and everyone was confused pure chaos.
There were times like that + so many other organic moments in ECW which just worked. The end of the Gangstas first match at the ECW Arena, against the Public Enemy, shows the crowd entering the ring to dance with Rocco and Johnny. After the music ends the crowd chanted "ECW"... and all of this was 100% unplanned.
