Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) was a professional Wrestling promotion that was founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1992 by Tod Gordon, and closed when his successor, Paul Heyman, declared bankruptcy in April 2001. The company became known for its loyal fan base as well as its tendency to push the envelope with storylines. The group has showcased many different styles of professional wrestling, ranging from lucha libre to hardcore wrestling.

When was WCW Wrestling created?

But instead of continuing the company as a stand-alone entity, Vince brought in most of the better talent he owned to WWE and basically killed the brand.
