Thanks for Adding me!!!

While I can see we will never come to a common ground on the merits of the original ECW, you are obviously far more knowledgable a wrestling fan than I originally gave you credit for, even when drunk... Please accept my token of fake internet friendship. It would be an honor, Mr Potocky. By the way, which Sinister 6 story was your favorite? I'm kind of particular to the Eric Larsen yarn that ran from Spiderman #18-23...

hey hot stuff....

I was merely saying that the current WWE has lost touch with what pure wrestling is... The stairs, no matter how long they have been used are not a wrestling manuever. I have not seen a catch as catch can wrestling match out of the WWE since Benoit faced William Regal. ECW had 1 on every show. So what if there were one or two "hardcore" spots in the match. WWE does it all the time, albeit predictably and poorly... I swear you merely watch matches on YouTube, which is not at all an indicator of what an entire ECW Live event was like. Watch CyberSlam '99... I watched the first four matches yesterday, and they were far cleaner, and contained more pure wrestling than I've ever seen from WWE or F... Vince McMahon runs a soap opera, game show circus which has very little to do with wrestling matches anymore. Accept it. ECW may not be AWA or NWA in terms of straght up rasslin', but it sure outdoes Vince's formulaic, predictible matches. He's only got about 5 different matches and repeats them weekly!

ECW fans may be bloodthirsty, but the performers did what they did of their own free will. Why not reprimand Jeff Hardy for taking risks? He "wrestles" far less than Sabu ever did.

I'm sorry ECW performers are not bodybuilding underwear models, thank god, but that makes them no less talented in the ring.
