[1996-09-10] ECW on American Journal

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Missy Hyatt looks the skankiest I've ever seen her.

 

Taz is awesomely in character here.

 

Cool feature.

 

I cracked up that the interviewer was obviously told that ECW now has capacity crowds of several thousand, based on the final line.

It cracked me up how Missy obviously thinks she looks amazing. Which she does, in a way.

 

This piece was pure advertisement.

Dreamer's had 16 concussions in 14 months, and somehow isn't a vegetable today. Pretty much a total puff piece, but an effective one. "Mr. Dreamer, your promotion appears to have the momentum of a runaway freight train--why are you so popular?" Even the editing seems like it was done by ECW in-house. Missy has fallen apart quickly--sheesh.

Good documentary style that seemed ahead of its time in 1996. There was of course some usual funny carny bits from the ECW guys but this was presented well enough and in a measured light that the Journal was able to get across their point without seeming biased and let the viewer come to their own conclusion.
