Wrestlers Who You Likely Didn't Know or Forgot Held A Title In A Promotion (Extreme Championship Wrestling)

Wrestlers Who You Likely Didn't Know or Forgot Held A Title In A Promotion (Extreme Championship Wrestling)

As I've mentioned, 2022 is a big year for wrestling as we've seen as I covered how this year is the 20th Anniversary of Ring of Honor and the 50th Anniversary of New Japan Pro Wrestling. The celebration is far from over as we now look at ECW. One of the most innovative and groundbreaking promotions in wrestling history, ECW opened in 1992 and despite only lasting nine years, continues to be fondly remembered and beloved. This April marks what would've been the 30th Anniversary and now, we'll look at the land of Extreme. As is the case, we'll start with wrestlers who you likely know of but may have forgotten or had no idea was a champion there. I should point out that I will only cover the original ECW from April 1992 to April 2001 and none of WWECW.

Note: I don't own the pictures, I googled them though most have come from prowrestling.fandom.com

Wrestlers who challenged for New Japan Championships

After having done two articles regarding New Japan's champions, I decided to conclude my 50th Anniversary celebration of New Japan by going another route. In the first article, we looked at wrestlers most fans knew but either forgot or didn't know won a championship. In the second, we looked at forgotten champions that most don't remember. Now, we'll look at names you should know of that competed for New Japan championships but came up short. You be surprised at the names that have come close but couldn't close the deal as far as winning New Japan gold.

Note: I don't own the pictures. I found them on Google.

Another year gone which means it's time for me to do my year end awards for pro wrestling. As is usually the case, these are my opinions and mine alone. Keep in mind, like last year, my Japanese awards are based off what I saw and I wasn't able to find much New Japan or many companies.
