The very real bad blood between John 'Bradshaw' Layfield and the wrestlers of ECW is extremely well-documented, and the build to 2005's ECW One Night Stand gave the Texan a chance to air his grievances towards the defunct-company.

JBL spoke of bounced cheques, using his status as a real-life tycoon to insult the business practices of Paul Heyman and ECW.

At the event itself, Heyman had a live mic and licence to use it, and he delivered an rebuttal to JBL that hit the nail squarely on the head, burying it deep into the ground and leaving the big Texan's championship run down there with it.

'The only reason you were WWE Champion for a year is because Triple H didn't want to work Tuesdays!'

In a world where respect is everything and championship reigns are what many hang their career hats on, such a true to the bone barb must have left a scar on JBL.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
