All of the aforementioned wrestlers are considered legends given their contributions to the wrestling industry. They were a prominent part of ECW under Paul Heyman's wing in the late '90s and early 2000s.

Tommy Dreamer is one of the biggest names in wrestling to this day. His impact has revitalized hardcore wrestling and many stars of the current generation have been influenced by Dreamer. Jerry Lynn isn't far behind.

He has wrestled in countless wrestling promotions all around the world and has been regarded by many as one of the best wrestlers of the ECW roster, especially in 1999 and 2000 which were two of the most successful years of his career.

When ECW first started, Paul Heyman believed Shane Douglas to be the person he was going to build the brand around. Following his WCW run, Douglas was reinvented in ECW as 'The Franchise' and quickly became one of the hottest names in wrestling. He is integral to the growth and popularity of ECW in the '90s.

The fourth member in the picture is Judge Jeff Jones. He managed Mike Awesome during his run and even during his feud against Taz, who is one of the most well-renowned ECW originals. Taz's legacy is almost unmatched as he has achieved countless accolades during his time in wrestling.
