Episode Ninety Three - ECW Champions in WWE
In the mid 2000s, with no real competition to speak of WWE started a love affair with the ECW Brand. Purchased after the company fell on hard times, there seemed to still be a desire in the fan base for a rebirth of the brand and after successful one night stand ppv's WWE pulled the trigger on a third brand under the name of Extreme Championship Wrestling! What followed was 4 years of a watered down product which got closer and closer every episode to the same old WWE formula, and which eventually felt very much like an after thought. However what of the champions, treated as World Champions, despite it being distinctly third behind the WWE and World Title belts, the ECW Title still held a little bit of importance. Our latest episode see's us look at every title holder and title change for the WWE ECW brand from 2006 through to 2010, from RVD through to Ezekiel Jackson...Zeek won a world belt? Somebody had better call creative!
