I loved ECW when I was younger. In 1996 I was two so I wasn’t seeing this. But later on in 1999 and 2000 I would watch the TNN show with my dad. He always said it was okay because I didn’t know what was going on. When I look back on ECW now I realize he was correct. At the time I would emulate Sabu. When I woukd come out of the shower I would put on sweatpants and wrap my towel around my head. I would turn off the light in the living room and sometimes my dad would even play along and say “Oh my did we lose power?” I would turn on the light then point up to the sheik. Then my dad would exclaim “Oh my God it’s Sabu!” So many good memories of watching wrestling with my dad. Thanks for talking about ECW and making me think back to simpler times! Keep up the good work guys!
Philadelphia the only city where you insult them for 12 minutes on a comedy stage, get warm cheer afterwards and it is your biggest hit ever. Philadelphia the city that made Bill Burr famous.
