In the summer of 1998, the Monday Night Wars were in full swing and the Attitude Era was on the horizon, but for those who preferred something a bit more gritty, there was now another alternative. Extreme Championship Wrestling. ECW presented Heatwave 1998 in the shadow of the two big guns, and set their stall out to be different, innovative and thought provoking. This week, the Scottish Smarks give their own views on their first original ECW review. Join Chris and Tony as they chat through the alternative presentation style, the jabs aimed from the talent (and the crowd) to the sports entertainers, the ripped off theme tunes, the aptly named Mike Awesome, and the reasons why a whistle has no place in professional wrestling.Support the show (http://paypal.me/scottishsmarks)
