This week, Francine and Chad take a highly scientific deep dive (okay, maybe not that scientific) into Cultaholic Wrestling’s epic attempt to answer the question:
💬 “What Happened To Every Wrestler From The Last Original ECW PPV – Guilty As Charged 2001?”
Francine offers actual insight (because, you know, she was there), while Chad mostly tries to figure out why Cultaholic pronounced “Mahoney” like it’s a rare French wine. 🧐🍷
Expect laughs, confusion, some affectionate roasting of the video’s editing choices, and a few “Wait, they got that wrong?” moments.
📼 It’s like Mystery Science Theater, but with more kendo sticks and less robots. Tune in and get EXTREME…ly entertained.

Two thousand and one. Extreme Championship Wrestling. I love it. Oh,
nobody knew for sure at the time. I love it
most revolutionary wrestling promotions of all time. Nenny did strongly
suspect it. For a few guilty as charged would pretty
much be the end of the wrestling road, while for
(02:43):
others it would not be so much of an ending
as a new beginning. Mason Bryan, Stevie, Ray Quaker, Lundra Blaze,
Norman Smiling, Zach gow and Bam Bam Big Alone, Ahmed Johnson,

come back in the future as a member of the
Straight Edge Society and then is one half of Jay
and J Security. He's been a trainer and producer for
both WWE and Ring of Honor two, but hasn't wrestled
since twenty eighteen. Since leaving his Ring of Honor gig

tights which were too big and had to be held
up with electrical tape. May not have been all that,

twenty eighteen, though he did show up in twenty twenty
two to accompany Guido in his dispute with Matt card
Donor and Brian Myers in Impact, he didn't mention exactly
(16:12):
what it was. In a twenty twenty one interview, he
did say that he was busy with his regular real
life job and that what he did was very rewarding,
lovely an impact few performers isn't. When ECW did, he
was asked to come back for the one night Stand shows,
but couldn't due to suffering from spinal stenosis. Salers kept
(16:33):
a low profile since, but came back into the stuff
light sort of with the Conspiracy Horseman podcast, which he

but has been involved in the business since, working as

mild stroke in March of twenty twenty two, but was

Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
Passed away from a heart attack in twenty sixteen. He
was forty four years old. Chilly Willy here we go.
We what Jilly Willy? We what Jilly Willy? Well I
do anyway? William Jones turned down the chance to wrestle
for WWE in two thousand and one, and he's stopping
to enlist in the United States Armed Forces. Following nine
(19:07):
to eleven, he served in a rack where he was
wounded while on a mission. Jones subsequently received a Purple
Heart and Bronze Star for his Brazy Era did have
a brief stint from WWE developmental in the mid two thousands,
but hasn't wrestled much since, his last match coming in
twenty nineteen. He currently lives in the Philippines and was
for a time at least involved in training aspiring wrestlers
(19:29):
in the country. Rhino the Man Beast was the last
world champion of the original ECW, and while he never
got pushed to the top in WWE, has enjoyed a
busy and successful career In the twenty odd years since
the Extreme Ship sank. He still wrestled for Impacts and
on the indies. The sand forget An ECW's lovable stick swinging,
(19:50):
big guzzling chainsmoking mascot won his first ECW World title
since nineteen ninety six on the company's last pay per view,
then dropped it to Rhino for minutes later packet at
tabs later. He wouldn't have been too bothered. Sandman still
makes the occasional wrestling related appearance, and, according to Brian Miles.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Square Circle Collectibles, Rob the.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Last bastion of hope for e c W is the
promotion was Circling the Drain. Rob Van Dam answered Rhino's
open challenge, but was instead attacked by feigned adversary Jerry Lynn.
RVD actually walked away from the promotion several months earlier,
having not been paid substantial sums of money, and only
returned here as a one off the legendary the two
(20:36):
plus decades since ECW, though he continues to maintain that
the best time of his career was working for Paul
Hayman's Out There. He finally became easy W champion in
two thousand and six after beating John Cena at the
second One Night Stand.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
Another picture of him holding.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
Of appearances at conventions, signings and has its own range
of CBD.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
I'm gonna say that was okay, that was that was informative,
a little too much personal info. Yeah, I would say
out of all those guys, I think Rhino has had
the most consecutive television crime of anybuddy on that list
since two thousand and one, and it includes RVD and
(21:20):
Dreamer and everybody else.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Yeah, because he's he's been consecutively working every year.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I remember when I had my show we did uh
this was in two thousand and nine. We did a
thing beforehand, a Q and A, and looking around, I said,
you know, the only person in this ring that has
a job is Rhino. He was the only one under
contract at my show that I can remember off the
(21:49):
top of my head. So he's been Yeah, he's been busy,
he's been, you know, working, and.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
He's just back at Impact now Very his own promotion.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
And he runs his own promotion and was running for
public office at one point on.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
Yeah, Very he lost, But I would have voted for
for Terry if I was living in his area.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That's very Uh, that's very nice of you.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
To do that. But yeah, informa, yes, but there were
there were some of fun facts that I feel should
have been left out. I think this guy just wants
to put himself over, like.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
Yeah, I know, I know everybody. You know, I know
stuff about the business.

Two thousand and one. Extreme Championship Wrestling. I love it. Oh,
nobody knew for sure at the time. I love it
most revolutionary wrestling promotions of all time. Nenny did strongly
suspect it. For a few guilty as charged would pretty
much be the end of the wrestling road, while for
(02:43):
others it would not be so much of an ending
as a new beginning. Mason Bryan, Stevie, Ray Quaker, Lundra Blaze,
Norman Smiling, Zach gow and Bam Bam Big Alone, Ahmed Johnson,
Tory Wilson, Well, Robert Gibson, Dave Taylor, Terry Taylor, and
Godfather's Spoke. What a nerd this door? Dwayne Gill, Adam Bond,

Michael Hayes, core Bon, Jim and Neither manager from Car
and Tie, Jim Bowers, Fran Scene, Jack Swagger, Duke the
Dumpster Oklahoma, matter what's happened to that wrestler? Some were
main venting, which leaves me lamenting what happened to that wrestler?

Something's long for gods, but their memories live bomb what
a nerd? Look at Joe.

come back in the future as a member of the
Straight Edge Society and then is one half of Jay
and J Security. He's been a trainer and producer for
both WWE and Ring of Honor two, but hasn't wrestled
since twenty eighteen. Since leaving his Ring of Honor gig
(05:14):
in acrimonious circumstances in twenty nine he left, he's been
involved in the business, and if he does make headlines,
it's usual belief is often controversial social media activity to
ball D's.

Though he quickly found employments in w w.

Jerry so didn't want to be as guilty as Chart

tights which were too big and had to be held
up with electrical tape. May not have been all that,
but the New Essen Show had a great second half
of his career, wrestling for TNA, Ring of Honor, MLW

twenty eighteen, though he did show up in twenty twenty
two to accompany Guido in his dispute with Matt card
Donor and Brian Myers in Impact, he didn't mention exactly
(16:12):
what it was. In a twenty twenty one interview, he
did say that he was busy with his regular real
life job and that what he did was very rewarding,
lovely an impact few performers isn't. When ECW did, he
was asked to come back for the one night Stand shows,
but couldn't due to suffering from spinal stenosis. Salers kept
(16:33):
a low profile since, but came back into the stuff

We what Jilly Willy? We what Jilly Willy? Well I
do anyway? William Jones turned down the chance to wrestle
for WWE in two thousand and one, and he's stopping
to enlist in the United States Armed Forces. Following nine
(19:07):
to eleven, he served in a rack where he was
wounded while on a mission. Jones subsequently received a Purple
Heart and Bronze Star for his Brazy Era did have
a brief stint from WWE developmental in the mid two thousands,
but hasn't wrestled much since, his last match coming in
twenty nineteen. He currently lives in the Philippines and was
for a time at least involved in training aspiring wrestlers

world champion of the original ECW, and while he never
got pushed to the top in WWE, has enjoyed a

Square Circle Collectibles, Rob the.

Last bastion of hope for e c W is the
promotion was Circling the Drain. Rob Van Dam answered Rhino's
open challenge, but was instead attacked by feigned adversary Jerry Lynn.
RVD actually walked away from the promotion several months earlier,
having not been paid substantial sums of money, and only
returned here as a one off the legendary the two
(20:36):
plus decades since ECW, though he continues to maintain that
the best time of his career was working for Paul
Hayman's Out There. He finally became easy W champion in
two thousand and six after beating John Cena at the
second One Night Stand.

Another picture of him holding.

Of appearances at conventions, signings and has its own range
of CBD.
Speaker 6 (20:58):
I'm gonna say that was okay, that was that was informative,
a little too much personal info. Yeah, I would say
out of all those guys, I think Rhino has had
the most consecutive television crime of anybuddy on that list
since two thousand and one, and it includes RVD and
(21:20):
Dreamer and everybody else.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Yeah, because he's he's been consecutively working every year.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
I remember when I had my show we did uh
this was in two thousand and nine. We did a
thing beforehand, a Q and A, and looking around, I said,
you know, the only person in this ring that has
a job is Rhino. He was the only one under
contract at my show that I can remember off the

And he runs his own promotion and was running for
public office at one point on.

That's very Uh, that's very nice of you.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
To do that. But yeah, informa, yes, but there were
there were some of fun facts that I feel should
have been left out. I think this guy just wants
to put himself over, like.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
Yeah, I know, I know everybody. You know, I know
stuff about the business.
