Celebrating ECW Legends

The induction of Paul Heyman into the Hall of Fame reignited fond memories of ECW among fans. One ECW legend, Blue Meanie, took to social media to express his affection for the former promotion.

He shared that he had gotten a new tattoo on his leg to honor ECW, featuring street signs to Swanson and Ritner, the location of the ECW Arena, now known as the 2300 Arena.

“Been wanting a new tattoo for a while. After Mania week and the love ECW got, this seemed the most appropriate.”
