37. Refusing to sit still while TNN screwed ECW over on its network deal. Despite still being way better than the WWF and WCW, in its final years, ECW always stressed how constrained they were by TNN.
Here's one of my favourite examples:
Joel Gertner: "TNN recently changed its slogan to 'we've got pop!' In the entire history of advertising, the only slogan worse than that was TNN's original slogan."
Joey Styles: "Original slogan? I didn't even know that TNN had any other slogans!"
Joel Gertner: "TNN: We F*** pigs."

38. Hardcore Heaven 2000. Even when ECW were going down the crapper, they were still able to produce awesome PPVs. This one happens to be the best from this era! The return of RVD! The return of Jerry Lynn! RVD vs. Jerry Lynn! Balls Mahoney vs. Masato Tanaka! Tajiri vs. Corino! Simon Diamond vs. Mikey Whipwreck vs. Little Guido! etc. etc.

39. The Sheer Awesomeness that is Rob Van Dam who along with Sabu is one of the most awesome wrestlers in the last decade. People who weren't into ECW or into wrestling at the time will never appreciate how smurfing amazing this guy was.
Edit: Jesus man, everytime I post someone beats me by just a second even though a while has gone by since someone last posted to this thread.

55. Jerry Lynn vs. Steve Corino - Heatwave 2000
One of the best matches i've ever seen, a really convincing old school bloodbath. With the added brilliance of Jerry Lynn writing WAR on his chest in Steve Corino's blood.
56. Cyrus' Color Commentary
57. Heatwave 98
all of it.
