The Rise and Fall of ECW Double DVD

By Jesse Suchanek on September 4, 2004 at 4:38 PM EST

Follow the rise and fall of Extreme Championship Wrestling on this special Double DVD release!

E-C-W! E-C-W! E-C-W!" - a chant heard in arenas around the world.

ECW: Extreme Championship Wrestling redefined professional wrestling in the '90s with a reckless, brutal, death-defying, and often bloody style that came to be known as "hardcore." It attracted a rabid, cult-like following that is still going strong today.
