Mass Transit is dead, though.

I thought he was like 16 when it happened.

What happened? Must be tragic for someone so young

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_Transit_incident_(ECW)

The Mass Transit incident was an infamous event in professional wrestling that occurred on November 23, 1996 in Revere, Massachusetts.

An aspiring 350-pound (158.7 kg) wrestler named Erich Kulas, who used the pseudonym "Mass Transit", convinced Extreme Championship Wrestling president and booker Paul Heyman to allow him to fill in for Axl Rotten, who was scheduled to work a tag match with D-Von Dudley against The Gangstas, New Jack and Mustapha Saed at a house (non-televised) show in the city.

During the match, New Jack bladed Kulas deeply. It sparked a series of incidents that saw New Jack get arrested and ECW's impending first pay-per-view show threatened with cancellation.

Authorities later determined that Kulas had lied to Paul Heyman about his age and experience. Kulas was 17 years of age, not 19 as he had said, and he had absolutely no formal training as a professional wrestler. Kulas' father, Stephen, even vouched for his son.

Three years after the incident, Jerome "New Jack" Young was tried on charges of assault and battery and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and later sued by the Kulas family. After hearing about Erich Kulas' request to New Jack to make him "get color" (bleed), a jury acquitted Young of all charges in the criminal trial and he was later declared not liable in the civil trial. But, the incident also had more immediate consequences: ECW's planned first pay-per-view, Barely Legal, was canceled by pay-per-view provider IN DEMAND. Paul Heyman, by his own admission in The Rise and Fall of ECW documentary, begged and pleaded with IN DEMAND and was finally able to convince the company that they had been misled and were placed back on the schedule some time later.

Performers who testified at Jerome Young's trial stated that Erich Kulas was extremely arrogant and demanding backstage prior to the match, and, when told he'd have to bleed as part of the match, Kulas had asked Young to do it since he had never done it. They testified that Stephen Kulas began berating The Gangstas and screamed, "he's only 17!" and "Take it easy on him, he's just a kid!" when they isolated his son from D-Von Dudley and double-teamed him. When it came time to actually blade Kulas, Young claimed that Kulas flinched during the process, causing the Exacto knife blade embedded in a piece of wood he used to cut deeper than he planned. Two arteries in Kulas' forehead were severed. The wound took fifty stitches to close. Young later stated, in Jeremy Borash's unauthorized documentary, Forever Hardcore, that it was a surgeon's scalpel.

Video footage showed New Jack asking Kulas: "You alright?" This prompted some to consider his actions moments later as part of the show and not representative of his true feelings. After the blading, the Gangstas proceeded to work Kulas over even more, prompting Stephen Kulas to scream, "Ring the f***ing bell, he's 17!"

As medics rushed into the ring to aid Kulas, New Jack grabbed the house microphone, and with one foot on the nearly unconscious Kulas' chest, exclaimed, "McMahon, Bischoff: look at this motherf***er! As far as I'm concerned, that fat piece of shit can bleed to f***ing death, because I don't give a f***". New Jack later stated in interviews that after he found out about Kulas' duplicity, he didn't have any remorse for what he had done.

Erich Kulas died on May 12, 2002 at the age of 22 due to complications from gastric bypass surgery.

You lost me.

Anyway, I'd keep the roster the same as it is now, except trade Mike Knox with Sir Fit Finlay and Big Show with Jeff Hardy.

[Doomrider]

I really like the current roster, but I would add some folk:

Gangrel
Claudio Castagnoli
Chris Hero
Alex Shelley
Beef Wellington

Technically, Gangrel is already a part of the brand. He just hasn't debuted yet (supposedly he had gained too much weight). He'll probably be brought in soon, either to team or feud with Thorn.

[Eunös ✈]

I actually feel Edge would have made a Good ECW Wrestler.

His competed in many table matches and has taken his fair share of Bumps.

I wouldnt be overly upset of one day they moved him over there.

Yea I heard he was hired, then I heard he wasn't. I can't wait to see him with Thorn.

[Parrish]

James Gibson
Spanky

Kid Kash all should be on the ECW roster as singles guys

Shelton would be a good fit for ECW as a high flyer or a mat technician

It would certainly help ECW's tag team division. Plus, Gangrel is an ECW alumni.

[Boshek]

2 Cold Scorpio wrestled a dark ECW match at Wilkes-Barre last month so he might be coming soon. He looked good.

Keep most of the roster.
