For easy consumption, what parts of ECW (either classic or current, whichever) have been inducted?

Here's what I can think of:
*The ECW video game (Hardcore Revolution or Anarchy Rulz) (original ECW) *The Zombie (WWECW)
Can this be inducted:
*Raven crucifies Sandman

I don't think much ECW has been inducted. And the few instances they were, I think it mainly dealt with "new" ECW, namely, when Vince McMahon bought it.
Of the old, as already stated, the ECW video game. Personally, I liked it. But it was a knockoff of WWF Attitude/WWF War Zone.

My friend laughed at me when I mentioned I still play it regularly. I was able to create so many wrestlers in addition to the ones they have. I got Batista, Booker T, The Rock, Foley, Brock Lesnar, Hulk Hogan and Stone Cold in ECW now.

I never created any alternate/transplant wrestlers (guys who were never in ECW), but the character I created was based off my looks/physique. Imagine someone similar to King Kong Bundy minus about 50 pounds, but with the moveset of a cruiserweight. I would go through the career mode as both a face and a heel multiple times. Plus I would make characters of my friends; it was always nice to beat the ever-loving crap out of them, especially in the parking lot/backlot match! *laughs* Oh, good times, good times....

Half the wrestlers I created were of my own invention, but the other half were WWE/WCW wrestlers I liked. Got like, 30/35 created wrestlers saved, and about 15 were WWE/WCW guys. Fit Finlay, DDP, Lesnar, Austin, Rock, Foley, Hogan, Booker, Batista, HHH, Goldberg and a few others. Oddball guys.
Always fun having that dream-match up of The Rock vs. Tommy Dreamer in a 2 out of 3 falls, anything goes, barbed wire match.

A non-WWECW induction I remember was a Weird World of Wrestling induction with Matt Bourne and his "Bourne Again" gimmick. For those of you who don't know, Bourne was the original Doink when he debuted as a heel in WWF, but left the company and the Doink gimmick was given to someone else. He resurfaced in ECW as Doink, but shortly changed into his "Bourne Again" gimmick.

I was an ECW fan and can't really say there's a lot from ECW that can be inducted. They did have SOME stupid stuff.

From the Wrestlecrap FAQ:
Q: Where's all the ECW stuff? A: ECW, in my opinion, never really had much crap. They did stupid angles, but they were stupid angles to get people like Stevie Richards' Clueless Putz character over. If I dig some ECW WrestleCrap up, I'll post it, but I've yet to see anything that I just can't live without inducting.
In my opinion, inducting something from the original ECW's tv show/ppv would be like inducting something from an Indy promotion. Personally, I prefer writing about angles and gimmicks from the "mainstream" promotions that actually have a substantial amount of money (WWE, TNA, WCW) and resources because you figure they would know better and put those resources to good use.

I think "The Network" is perhaps deserving of an induction. Granted, Paul Heyman had a legit chip on his shoulder because then TNN was jerking him around big time, but it was still a pretty lame gimmick. They had Cyrus the Virus-formerly known as the Jackyl in the WWF-as the evil establishment character trying to censor ECW. Or how about "ECW New York?" It was a pretty lame spoof of the WWE themed restaurant in times square. But all ECW had was a hole in the one bar, about the size of a phone booth, where every once in a while one of the women of ECW would show up and dance on the bar top. Speaking of the ECW, I would personally say that Elektra was pretty wreslecrappy. An ex stripper and third rate playmate, and one of the most buttafaced women I have ever seen in a wrestling ring.

That sounds like it needs to have a lot of red lighting for no reason.
