10 Worst ECW Champions Ever

The Extreme Championship Wrestling promotion was beloved by wrestling fans from the time it became extreme in 1994 right until its end in 2001. Fans loved that they were willing to say and do things that no other wrestling would even think of doing. They prided themselves on taking things to the extreme. The ECW Title became a World Championship when Shane Douglas threw down the NWA Title and announced this new company that would be run by Paul Heyman. Since Shane's reign started on March 26, 1994 is when WWE started to recognize the title that's when we will too. Rhyno was the last ECW Champion when the company died in early 2001. In 2006, WWE brought back the ECW brand with Rob Van Dam becoming its first champion. The WWE version of ECW lasted for about four years before WWE decided to end the experiment. While the ECW World Title isn't held with the same prestige as the WWE Heavyweight Title (their main title), the WWE World Title (the "big gold belt") or the WCW World Title, it was still something fans recognize and wrestlers should be proud of holding. At least most of them should be proud. There were some bad ECW World Champions too. In most instances, the champion wasn't really bad because of his performance. A lot of the time it was how that person was presented as the champion or perhaps the way they lost the title. In some cases it's just because we saw who the champion was and reacted with confusion because we weren't sure why it was done. Here's a look at some of the worst ECW World Champions from 1994 to 2001 and also the WWE version from 2006 to 2010.
