9. Paul E. Dangerously's ECW Debut
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vGVK7u-TCc After having been fired from WCW in January 1993, it's intriguing to watch his debut in Eastern Championship Wrestling in May of the same year alongside Eddie Gilbert, Jimmy Snuka and Don Muraco as the "Dangerous Alliance and Hot Stuff International." Given Paul E.'s unceremonious WCW departure, and just how much of ECW (as Extreme Championship Wrestling) would base their rise around insulting the name and business practices of ECW, to hear Paul just refer to WCW as "Atlanta" on Sportschannel Philadelphia's Eastern Championship Wrestling program is telling. The fact that he also said that his goal in ECW was to "bankrupt Tod Gordon?" Well, that's another story for another list.
