Original ECW Website Archives – Wrestler Of The Year Poll For 2000

by

In order to preserve as much of ECW’s original history, we will link out to archives of this website from when the promotion was still active. Not many of the original pages and photos are accessible via Archive.org (Wayback Machine), but when we find interesting ones then we will include them in this blog post category:

Original ECWwrestling.com website content

Even though ECW’s last show was held on January 13, 2001 the website continued on for a few weeks afterward due to the uncertainty of the promotion’s future at that time.

This post (from the March 9, 2001 archive/snapshot) was the website’s official fan poll for the wrestler of the year for 2000: Click Here

Obviously, you cannot vote for the wrestlers now (!) – but many fans may like to see the list. Those names include:

Jerry Lynn
Justin Credible
Kid Kash
New Jack
Rhino
Rob Van Dam
Sandman
Steve Corino
Super Crazy
Tommy Dreamer
Yoshihiro Tajiri

It is unknown at this time if the promotion ever made an official announcement on its 2000 “Wrestler of the Year” as a result of this poll or by any other determination.
