What Made ECW One Night Stand 2005 So Special?

ECW One Night Stand 2005 is one of the greatest wrestling shows ever. 4 years after ECW went bankrupt and closed it doors, 4 years without any ECW action, 4 years of fans missing the wrestling company they loved so much. ECW was back. For one night only. ECW was back. Live from New York City in the Hammerstein Ballroom, in front of some of the craziest fans ever. A show that did everything it could do to make it feel as authentic as possible even though it was promoted by WWE. It was a night unlike any other in WWE PPV history, the lines between reality and kayfabe were blurred to another level.

There was classic wrestling, lucha libre, hardcore wrestling and some good ol shoots. This show had it all. Lets go back to 2005 and take a look at ECW ONE NIGHT STAND 2005
