ECW may not exist in 2017, but WWE arguably has the closest thing to it: NXT. A smaller third brand adored by a group of hardcore fans with a spiritual home, sounds familiar, doesn't it?

While not everyone currently in NXT would have felt comfortable calling ECW their home, One Superstar who wouldn't have been out of place performing in front of those rabid Philadelphia crowds is Aleister Black. His alternative appearance, heavy metal entrance music, hard hitting offence. Everything Black is and does screams ECW.

Black's stay in WWE hasn't been a long one at the time of this writing, but he has already made a big impact. Triple H is actually quite lucky that ECW doesn't still exist as it's likely someone like the Dutchman would have opted for Heyman's brand over NXT if given the choice.
