2 new Video Clips from Unauthorized ECW Documentary
Please, we need your help! Please help us reach our goal and help get this Unauthorized ECW Documentary produced. We have just 9 days to go to reach the project funding deadline. Remember pick a "gift", make a pledge --and no one is charged anything unless we hit the goal on Sept 19th! Go to
www.kickstarter.com and search “ECW” to view the page.Here is a great video
http://youtu.be/oM_wNdez5us that we captured producing this Unauthorized ECW Documentary. This clip features a new Dave Meltzer (Wrestling Observer) clip talking about ECW shows and fans, and ECW Talent Joel Gertner. Please enjoy and share the clip.With just 9 days left, we are 62% funded at $14,512 on the way to our goal of $23,200, with 278 "backers" as of this posting. Meeting our goal amount will allow us to produce the best film we possible can as we have a ton of footage to edit, travel costs, licensing of media of all forms, as well as original music. We will also use the money raised to produce a professional release (REPLICATED DVDS --not dubs or burns), plus there are fees taken out by Kickstarter/Amazon, as well as business and legal expenses. It really is a big project. We love it, but we need your help.
Here we are just 8 days out from our project deadline for the “UNAUTHORIZED ECW DOCUMENTARY”, hoping that the wrestling Gods will look down on from above and give the nudge needed to get this project fully funded. These video clips that we have been providing are great bonuses of what has been captured on tape, and are just a small taste of a very large film project that when mixed together with pictures, video, and music will bring this unbiased look at ECW to life --the unauthorized story that has yet to be so completely told as producer John Philapavage has set out to release in December 2012. Get to
www.kickstarter.com and search "ECW"TODAY’S BONUS VIDEO:
http://youtu.be/nIHy3dfIl9EFeatures: Dave Scherer, a wrestling journalist, and owner of Pwinsider.com, who has a storied history covering Extreme Championship Wrestling. Dave adds some great commentary to his times following ECW.
Mikey Whipwreck, a former ECW championship title holder and crowd favorite underdog sat down to tell his story and run with Extreme Championship Wrestling.
We still need your help. If you already made a pledge --THANK YOU! Please send some of your friends and co-workers the link to our Kickstarter page and encourage them to make a pledge too. You can also look at the Kickstarter page as a “PRE-ORDER” for the DVD and a lot of great extras in posters, tickets to the Philly premiere, and more.
REMEMBER --when you make a pledge --YOU ARE NOT CHARGED ONE CENT. Your pledge will only be charged only after the deadline of Sept 19th has passed, but most importantly ONLY if we reach our total goal of $23,200. If we do not reach it by 9/19 --no one is charge anything. Please tell someone about this UNAUTHORIZED ECW DOCUMENTARY today. Post it on Facebook, Twitter --wherever you may roam online.
Countdown is 8 days to go, 292 backers, $15,053 pledge, at 64% (just $27 dollars til 65% funded). With your help we can get this 100% funded, and get this film finished being produced, and released December 2012!

Recap of Jason Knight on In Your Head Wrestling Radio, 09/05/2012
by Vic Schiavone
Hosts Jack E. Jones and One Inch Biceps welcomed “The Sexiest Man Alive” Jason Knight to IYH Wrestling Radio for a marathon 3-hour shoot interview. Highlights included:
What were his feelings concerning the WWE version of ECW?
“The day that I was called to do the first ECW television…the first thing was that guy that was dressed like a zombie…and the guy walked out and Hak walked out with his imitation Sandman music and beat up that zombie guy and I just walked out, got in my car, and I left…To me that was pretty much the day when wrestling died…it was almost like getting paid to do a cheap porn, and yet you were not allowed to participate. It was horrible.”
What is wrestling missing today?
“All the guys look alike, they all have the same moves, they’re all the same size, they’re all on the same steroids...It used to be back in the day...those guys looked like wrestlers; they acted like wrestlers...The guys can’t work anymore; they’re spot monkeys. It’s a shame; these kids have so much athleticism. If they could work, they could be such great wrestlers; but they’re spot monkeys, that’s all they are. They can’t wrestle, and they’re not tough.”
Are the stories true about the party scene in the original ECW?
“There were some guys and girls that partied...Paul Heyman, he did not run a locker room like a Nazi. He ran a locker room like...if you can do it, and if you can perform, and then come back tomorrow and do TV and interviews, then you were fine.”
Jason also tore through several other topics, including but not limited to:
Who was his first match with?
What is his opinion of John Cena?
What was the most memorable match of his career?
What wrestler did he describe as “T
The Biggest Waste in Professional Wrestling”?
What was the craziest thing he ever saw backstage?
