5. ECW Takes the WWE Title
Back in 2006, the ECW was back in business. It was announced that the WWE would be bringing back the league full-time, and fans of the ECW’s style couldn’t have been any happier. Of course, we know the league fizzled out, but at the time it was the buzz of the WWE world. Naturally, this also provided opportunities for clashes between the best stars from both the leagues.
One such clash occurred during ECW One Night Stand, featuring a match between Rob Van Dam and WWE superstar John Cena. Many expected Cena to win the match, though ECW fans were obviously pulling for RVD. When Van Dam pulled off the upset, taking the title from Cena, nobody could believe it. Announcers and fans alike all went ballistic, and the moment will live on in history as one of the more shocking things wrestling fans have witnessed.
