Grapple City Rewind

The Greatest Crowd of All Time - ECW One Night Stand 2005

Bradley Palermo & Aaron Fink Season 1 Episode 12

In this episode of Grapple City Rewind, Bradley Palermo and Aaron Fink crack open a blood-stained time capsule and relive the chaos of ECW One Night Stand 2005. Taped nearly 20 years to the day, this reunion show blends WWE production polish with raw ECW grit—and an absolutely unhinged Hammerstein Ballroom crowd. From Sandman's beer-drenched madness and Mike Awesome’s table-killing spree, to the eerie quiet during Benoit vs. Guerrero, the guys reflect on how this night served as both a celebration and a sobering eulogy for the ECW legacy. Plus, they kick things off with impressions from attending WWE Money in the Bank 2025 live in LA, including wild chants, R-Truth conspiracy theories, and overpriced seats.
