    $750 is more than I make in a week and Jim didn’t have to be there more than 10 minutes. And adjusted for inflation $750 in 1997 is $1,434.82. That’s good f’n money right there. Paul couldn’t pay his wrestlers but he could pay the equivalent of damn near $1,500 to get Jim for one night at the drop of a hat? That’s so messed up lol.

    First ECW TV I ever saw was by chance after flying cross country all day to LI in late night, late '95 . Show in process, first match Raven went over Tommy Dreamer "clean"! (a cheese grater was used). What was unheard of at that time, was a heel who wasn't cowardly, lucky beyond disbelief, or steeped in HA HA Funny. Then an Alfonzo, Taz promo where Fonzy talks of dropping $20 bills around NYC on parking and massage parlor tips. ECW for a time restored my faith in wrestling. Never cared much for Heyman as a performer, other than an occasional ECW peptalk to the troops. As a booker/producer for a time- '94-late summer '96- he was incredible. Ultra lo-tech as TV wrestling should be. There was the occasional hardcore match (the Bad Breed were barely visible on TV at that time thankfully) other than to get Alfonzo over as a crooked State Commission rep). If you're going to have hardcore matches at least use the best- Sabu, Funk, Cactus Jack, Sandman.

    What a great guy corny is if this is true (I wouldn't doubt it is). He does a huge favor for Chris even though he's not enthused to, he didn't charge Paul and all the payment he wanted was to mend the relationship between Paul and Dennis to help Dennis out.

    i kind of remember what jim is speaking of. coroluzzo was a great guy. i can remember only maybe devon storm being used in ecw after the talks perhaps. candido yes but he was with heyman. but yea, maybe just devon storm. after candido, and maybe jim can vouche for it, ace darling was his "top guy" so to speak and nova before ecw, a guy named mr motion and a cpl others he wanted to showcase. there was also his son, rick ratchet, who was like a flair like guy, had a robe and all else. i only know due to those where iron mike sharpe school trainees out of bricktown new jersey and i was there with them. a lot of this stemed after the douglas throwing of the ecw title down from the tournament for the nwa title. think there was also supposed to be a nwa vs ecw feud. but ecw as we know it now was born.
