First and foremost, I would like to thank all the wrestling dirt sites that took notice and linked to my passionate tweets at twitter.com/wwejoeystyles. All of the media coverage has resulted in a 20% increase in followers in a single week!
Sunday night at Extreme Rules, fellow ECW Original Tommy Dreamer won his second ECW Championship almost nine years after winning his first one at The ECW Arena in
In 2000, after winning his first ECW Championship, Tommy was challenged to defend the title immediately. Tommy let his pride get the better of him, accepted the match, had his own manager betray him and lost the ECW Championship. Tommy never got to wear the title belt.
Well, Sunday night after our online interview I accompanied Tommy Dreamer to our locker room photo studio and personally snapped the ECW Championship belt around the new champion's waist so history could be properly documented and will live forever.
ECW without Tommy Dreamer would be like the New York Yankees without pinstripes. Sure, they would still be called The Yankees but what's in a name? A name is just a name. A rose by any other name would not smell as sweet. In fact, I would argue that it would stink on ice.
I complete this blog feeling an inner peace because The Yankees wear pinstripes and ECW has Tommy Dreamer.
Dream on Original ECW fans because in some ways, the dream lives on.


Great blog, Joey. I'm glad Tommy won the ECW title. He always has the heart and the passion of a champion. He proved it that on Sunday at Extreme Rules.
