Tracy Smothers Jack Victory Kanemura Nichole Bass Julio Dinero and EZ Money Big Sal E. Graziano J.T. Smith Furnas and Kroffat Jason The Sexiest man alive The Prodigy Tom Marquez Louie Spiccoli
Are all names that never seem to get mentioned as much as the guys who didn't do as well in ECW but rose higher elsewhere. Those names however got way bigger reactions in my memory then Benoit, Jericho, and many other of the oft mentioned allumni.
It's weird remembering ECW then hearing it talked about. It would be like if people talked about WCW and dedicated half the discussion about Mean Mark, Terra Ryzin, and Robbie V.

As much as I couldn't stand Jack Victory, he had that "Barry Darsow" quality to turn anything that looked like crap on the surface, and turned it into gold.
The Royal Family in WCW. He teamed with Rip Morgan and they had Lord Littlebrook as their manager. (For a time, they claimed they were from Australia and changed their names to reflect that: Jack became "Jack-o" and Rip became "Rip-pah". Couldn't have been that much of a stretch, as Jack was once the official flag-bearer for the Sheepherders - from New Zealand.) Cartoon villain for Steve Corino in 1999-2000 ECW. I call him cartoon villain because he'd have this way of getting beat up that was so silly yet funny.

Dying days ECW was a sad state of affairs talent wise.

I only remember seeing him twice. Once on WCW Saturday Night in "match" with Barry Darsow that he won by countout because Darsow was doing his golfer gimmick and left the ring. The other time was at November 2 Remember 1999 as Simon Diamond's bodyguard.

Makes me remember the announcer Lance something. I actually liked him too and thought he had a good look but I don't remember him doing anything after being a manager for a bit. I know he managed Brakus and kept saying "All Natural"

Rod Price is a well-known name If I'm not mistaken he had a decent run in Texas in the late 80s early 90s back when Cactus, Austin, Raven and Taker were roaming around those territories.

He maybe the smartest man in wrestling. People can say what they will about Nash but Rebel made a career completely off having a promoters license.

I remember that TNN censored his name when he mentioned it during a promo. I wonder how they would have handled it when he actually came down to the ring.

I know he managed Brakus and kept saying "All Natural" Lance Wright. He was also a backstage interviewer for WWF in '97 before sent down to ECW. He interviewed The Hart Foundation at In Your House Revenge of The Taker.

"The Virgin" Princess Angel. Had a love storyline with Hack Myers...and I think that was about it.

Lance Wright was awful. In every way. For an announcer or manager/mouthpiece, he had a terrible voice, and no TV presence. I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did on TV. Gertner was infinitely better in every way.

The guy from American Digger worked in ECW for a bit, apparently.

Because I have a lot of Eastern Championship Wrestling stuff on VHS and she's always popping up on them and every time I try to look up more info on her all I get is info on Angel from Da Baldies.

I think they mean they are forgotten because outside of Nova I dont think any of them wrestled in WWE.
If anyone was a fan of ECW they remember all these guys (save maybe Chilly Willy)
