Extreme Championship Wrestling was the revolutionary, industry-redefining wrestling federation of the '90s, and founder and owner Tod Gordon is telling his story for the first time. Gordon went from a local Philadelphia businessman to the third most influential man in wrestling as ECW became the fiery challenger to WWE and WCW. ECW's young roster featured inventive risk-taking talent that both major federations sought to emulate but could never duplicate. “E-C-W!” chants rang out in wrestling arenas across all federations for decades.

Welcome to this week's exciting episode of The Matthew Mania Podcast!    Matthew, Neil and Nelio start by talking about Boca's Ballroom Battle and its incredible efforts to raise 1.2 million dollars for college scholarships.      Matthew could not make the event so gave his seats to Madman Fulton, formerly Sawyer Fulton of NXT.    Fulton was an NXT star and founding member of NXT tag -team champion stable “Sanity.”   Madman Fulton is scheduled to appear at our next Boca Raton Championship Wrestling show on November 5, 2023 where he will be taking on Lakay for the BRCW Championship.    We are then joined by Bill Alfonso, a former professional wrestling referee and manager famous for his time in Extreme Championship Wrestling in the mid-to-late 1990s.   Bill tells us stories of his ECW days and managing the Giant Gonzalez.   How the giant would send him to get dozens of In N Out Cheeseburgers.   And asks Bill to do things that are above and beyond the call of duty for a manger to do.    We had a great time recording this show and hope you enjoy.     Thanks for joining us on the Matthew Mania Podcast!  And check out our other Podcasts: www.matthewmania.com/podcasts   (Join us in Boca Raton on October 10, 2023 for the 100th Episode of the Real Estate Finder Podcast)   Shop Matthew Mania:   www.prowrestlingtees.com/matthewmania     Save the Dates for our next shows:   November 5th, 2023 Birthday Bash in Mizner Park   January 25th, 2024 Cruisn' for a Bruisin' at the Pullman Hotel Blue Lagoon at the Miami Airport   March 6th, 2024 at the YMCA (tentative)   May 18th, 2024  (tentative)   More information at:  www.BocaRatonWrestling.com       Brought to you by:   Matthew H.
