I was on the security team that night working the curtain. Basically that meant no one I don't know gets back there. The kid came by with the midgets and said he was there to work, but I turned him away. Maybe a half hour later someone from the back said he was ok, so he obviously talked his way into it. I didn't have the best view of the match with people standing in front of me but what I saw was brutal. My two most vivid memories was the medic woman running back and forth from the back getting thick terri cloth towels that were soaking up the blood like tissue paper. The other was Paul E asking me if I could see anything and when I turned to answer him, his face was white as a ghost. I'll never forget that look. The cops wanted to shut the show down with one match left, but we decided to let things calm down since the 12 or so of us would've gotten killed by the crowd of a few hundred. The crowd at the Wonderland Dog Track was the most violent I'd ever seen.
TY for sharing! I NEVER knew that about his dad or the fact that he was there! WTF? His DAD needs to be in an EXTREME RULES match with NEW JACK! wth wth wth wth
John Donovan ECW crowds were bloodthirsty, you just had one of the most brutal spectacles of color in the ring, of course the crowds worked up, new jack just fucked up some new kid in the ring. The show had to go on. You can't work the crowd up that much and stop the show because they will riot. ECW had a hardcore audience. Its a shame this kid fucked up and died not long afterward, we will never hear his side of it on any podcast.
I bled way more in this match than Mass Transit did with New Jack and that incident was probably the highlight of his life in retrospect as he died really young in the early 2000's: th-cam.com/video/86HEGYiX9ag/w-d-xo.html
I always thought so too. Hearing that the gimmick was Ralph Cramden inspired makes it sound really interesting. There was potential there, at least as far as the gimmick.
It was definitely a decent gimmick and I'll be honest, the kid had potential to be a great heel.From everything I've heard, seen, and read about this, the kid was absolutely despised by the crowd and the guys in the back due to his diva like demands and shitty attitude.
Not sure why, but I laughed out loud when Meanie was asked about Terri Runnels. The question seemed so random after hearing about the beatdown Mass Transit received.
Mass Transit died a few years later. This is his only claim to fame. I'm surprised no one thought his asking new jack to cut him open was a sign of inexperience. That was a red flag.
Guys in the locker room would've definitely been able to tell that this guy, if not underage, was at least a bit simple, the whole situation is deplorable, yes him and his parents were irresponsible letting him go in there but it was pure felony what new jack did.
As soon as Meanie said Mass Transit walked up to D-von and the gangstas(New Jack in particular)and said "Hey, here`s what I wanna do" I slapped my forehead haha That`d be like walking up to a prime Mike Tyson and saying "listen, this is how we`re gonna spar!"
The lighting makes it look like Meanie's being held hostage and forced to make this shoot video. Has anyone checked his blinking to see if he's blinking Morse Code?
It's obvious that Blue Meanie was very unhappy with Kulas' behavior backstage. From what I understand, Kulas' was being disrespectful and arrogant. Blue Meanie is right; When you're a rookie, you listen and you learn. You don't tell the veterans what you want to do in the match, you do what they tell you. Seems to me that Kulas had no respect. But then again, he was 17, so it's no surprise he was immature and arrogant.
@@TheMightyThor83 You're sounding as if you're defending the guy that lied his way backstage just to work a match at one of the most extreme wrestling promotions to have existed. Honestly, no one comes out on top in this one.
If I walk into am airport and say I'm a pilot and I was trained by Charles Lindbergh, they're not going to let me fly a plane. I don't care if this kid lied about his training; ECW was negligent for not verifying what he said.
BigRig Joe killer was actually in the damn building could've walked over and asked, but i guess the general consensus was no one would be stupid enough to lie on killer. Sorry forgot how to spell his last name.
I still have my BWO shirt. I stole it back from my sister in the middle 2000s. I actually met Killer Kowalski in 1992, ECW show in Connecticut. Good times.
What irritates me about the Mass Transit Incident is how some of the wrestlers like to tip toe around the fact that New Jack went too far and turned a wrestling match into assault and battery. Was Mass Transit arrogant back stage? Maybe he was. So what? Does someone drinking water from a cooler, smoking, and talking too much give someone else the right to carve their heads to the point of needing over 50 stitches? “Well he was rude so I carved up his head.” Yes, I know that he lied to get backstage. That was wrong, but Heyman could have been a better promoter and actually checked into this kid, but if he did, that wouldn’t be “extreme.” Mass Transit asked New Jack to cut him. Ok, fine. That was stupid too. This wasn’t a blade job and the Meanie knows it. He’s too afraid to go against someone in the business and admit New Jack was wrong. No, the kid didn’t put people’s jobs in jeopardy. New Jack’s actions and Paul Heyman’s lack of checking did.
New Jack is a terrible human and what he did was not ok, but to be fair, you can't be mad at an alligator that bites you when you put your arm down its throat. If you threw rocks at a lion would you blame the lion when it attacks you? When you play with fire you get burnt. Again, not saying what Jack did was ok but you can't ask a homicidal psychopath to cut you with out expecting such a thing to happen. That's like handing Jeffery Dahmer a straight razor and asking him to shave your neck. Stupid games, stupid prizes!
Funny that Meanie is talking about not suggesting anything for his match with Cactus because it would be considered bad form considering it was Foley trying to get something in on Davey-Boy during that famous match in 1986 that got him almost killed by Dynamite...
Hey I like this guy Meanie. I remember having an arcade system as a 8 year old kid. ECW and golden age of the WWF were before my time. At that particular time with the arcade system, I start learning of these early to mid 90’s wrestling characters. That propelled me to brush up on some more knowledge. I start watching wrestling and Blue Meanie was one of the first wrestlers I ever watched have a match. Sadly I didn’t know wtf ECW was until much much later but still all characters I saw were interesting. Blue Meanie seems like a nice guy. 👍🏽
People say that he wasn't physically able to do a wrestling match. The fact that he asked New Jack, yes NEW JACK to blade him should have proven that he wasn't mentally able to do it, either.
The kid was 16 flipping years old he didn't know any better. New Jack and the rest of the boys in the locker room including Paul E should have known better. Totally disgusting event
bella morte how is it on him? Your a dumbass for even thinking it is his fault. They knew he was not what he said and still took advantage but what do you expect from someone that stabs another wrestler 9 f'ing times and still gets away with it.
You all are fucking morons and absolutely disgusting people it you believe that Eric kid “got what he deserved that night.” Absolutely sickening. Yes, the kid lied about his age and wrestling training and yes no doubt about it, that was wrong on his and his father’s end. But that’s doesn’t mean he should have been KILLED! Which is almost EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. The kid had a dream that sadly turned into a scary as hell nightmare. The kid DID NOT deserve that, that was just way over the line.
Only a dumbass asks new jack to cut you or even do a match with him so the one more at fault the his dad for even allowing him to lie or get fake id or paperwork to do something this stupid. That being said sucks he wasn't smarter but R.I.P.
Probably for the same reason he let his 17 year old son, who was untrained and grossly out of shape, lie about his age and wrestled a match that requires use of weapons. Simply put, he seems like a really shitty father
I'm surprised that Taz didn't choke him out for lighting that cigarette. Paul Heyman should have made a one-on-one match between Taz and Mass Transit as punishment for lighting that cigarette.
An inexperienced, lying, disrespectful person gets the shit kicked out of him in a wrestling company that is known to be brutal. I don't see the problem here. You lie, you pay for it.
Blue Meanie is right, never ever let another wrestler cut you, unless it's Bret Hart. Wrestlemania 13, Bret Hart suggested Austin should get color as it would improve the spectacle of the match, Austin was inexperienced in blading, so Bret offered to do it for him, you all know the rest... As for the Mass Transit incident, it's being too kind to say the kid had a lack of wrestling training/etiquette. Most, if not all, of the mistakes he made was down to a simple lack of common sense.
New Jack fucking knifed a wrestler like 15 times in a match, asking someone like him to blade you is asking for trouble. RIP Erich Kulas aka. Mass Transit
New Jack screamed about how he hates white people and how he hopes the dude dies in the ring - he loved the ever loving shit out of hurting a white kid. He dug that blade as deep as possibly could on purpose.
Seen videos on this incident probably 100 times, then decided to look up footage of the match. Wow!! It was brutal after NJ cut him and the blood ran out his forehead. Imo blame goes straight to the dad, I've learnt after having kids there's nothing you wouldn't do to help your kids. If my kid come home and said I want to be a BASE jumper I wouldn't buy him a parachute and push him off a cliff haha.. which is basically what Eric's dad done to him. Like meanie said, it was a Terrible situation for everyone involved. Heaps of people nearly lost work and this kid got f'd up.
Some of the blame goes on the dad, some on the kid and some on the wrestling staff for taking him on his word. A 17 year old cannot even walk into a night club and get in. Why was he allowed to wrestle with a criminal psycho?
@@miesvaillanykyisyytta3252 blue meanie explained in the video it's not like you have some kind of certification that say you are a wrestler and the midget who was a wrestler actually say it, it was a bad checking but it happened
JBL isn't New Jack. Jack worked people stiff for wrongs they did. JBL just beat people up becuase he could get away with it. JBL never asked if Blue Meany was okay when he was assaulting him. Jack checked on Mass multiple times and Mass said "I'm fine. Keep going."
Meanie seemed intent on trying to make this guy look deserving of what he got. But if half of what he says is true, then red flags were everywhere. How the fuck did no one think to verify this guy even after he convinced them to let him wrestle.
Yea but still Paul Heyman shouldn't had let the KID Wrestle without checking his facts first. 1) he should had called killer KWASKY to ask him if what THE KID SAID is true. Also like our friend said if what blue mennie SAID is true red flag were everywhere first HOW THE HELL DO YOU ASK ¡¡¡NEW JACK!!! OF ALL PEOPLE TO CUT YOU?!!! BLUE MENNIE SAID IT NEW JACK IS THE MOST BRUTAL PERSON WHEN IT COMES TO BLADING
Everyone makes excuses for this. The company didn't almost get shut down because a kid lied. It almost got shut down because New Jack took liberties with a guy he didn't like and purposefully split the arteries on his forehead open with a knife. Regardless of him breaking locker room rules, one of the biggest rules in wrestling is that you never intentionally injure someone. You hear stories of Bob Holly and Bradshaw roughing people up but at least they stay out of the he hospital and are pretty much fine short of a few aches.
Ryan Blevins hold up dont put all the blame on new jack eric kulas was in the wrong too he shouldn't lied about his age and ask jack to cut him and also jack shouldn't went that far with it
This was a work. An extreme work. They knew this would happen and become New Jack legend. Which is why he never got arrested. Even the XPW incident was a botched work.
You gotta kinda admire the balls on that kid, Mass transit...snuck in, underage. Lied. Strutting around the locker room smoking and talking to Pauly, Devon, and New Jack like equals...lol
I was at that show, and had seen mass transit on a public access cable channel, doing utterly fake matches. Him and his friends were backyard wrestlers, not trained.
So the kid lied about his age So the kid asked New Jack to cut him So the kid asked to get offense in..................... That STILL did not mean he deserved to get gashed and nearly bleed to death right there in front of his father. If what the kid did was so bad, the ECW locker room should have kicked him out, not tried to take his life in front of a a live wrestling audience. Also, he was ONLY 17 AND IM SURE STARSTRUCK! Sad to see people defending New Jack and the company on this!
The kid Eric kulas over there's my buddy unfortunately he passed away a while back and his brother passed away 2 they've basically passed away from the same thing but I seen that video sitting in Eric's living room while he was smoking pack at the PAC at the pack of cigarettes and I was a little kid watching this video watching his kid get his ass beat and it was like so crazy to me that this guy was on TV get beat up like that sitting right next to me and it was a kid I grew up with and it's sad because him and his brother were really nice people like he would literally do anything just so she could talk to you and have a friend do you know what I mean he was a really good kid rest in peace Eric
Despite everything wrong and shady the kid and the father did to get him there there is no excuse for New Jack's actions. And dont tell me "that's ecw, that's new jack", the man was a fucking psychopath, he belonged in a nutty house strapped to a jacket. There was nothing good NJ ever did, plain and simple.
It's hard for me to put all of the blame on New Jack because he didn't know the kid was underage plus I'm sure Mass Transit had watched New Jack before and how violent he was
I was on the security team that night working the curtain. Basically that meant no one I don't know gets back there.

If the kid was a legit wrestler- he wasn't.
I think New Jack and ECW should have counter sued the Kulas family. The kid's father was there and even backed up his son's claims.

But shouldn’t New Jack have known how green he was soon as he told him “ what he wanted to do”? 🤔
New Jack didn't get paid to give a fuck. Fat boy said "can you cut me" and New Jack obliged him.
New Jack screamed about how he hates white people and how he hopes the dude dies in the ring - he loved the ever loving shit out of hurting a white kid. He dug that blade as deep as possibly could on purpose.
Seen videos on this incident probably 100 times, then decided to look up footage of the match. Wow!! It was brutal after NJ cut him and the blood ran out his forehead. Imo blame goes straight to the dad, I've learnt after having kids there's nothing you wouldn't do to help your kids. If my kid come home and said I want to be a BASE jumper I wouldn't buy him a parachute and push him off a cliff haha.. which is basically what Eric's dad done to him. Like meanie said, it was a Terrible situation for everyone involved. Heaps of people nearly lost work and this kid got f'd up.
Some of the blame goes on the dad, some on the kid and some on the wrestling staff for taking him on his word. A 17 year old cannot even walk into a night club and get in. Why was he allowed to wrestle with a criminal psycho?
@@miesvaillanykyisyytta3252 blue meanie explained in the video it's not like you have some kind of certification that say you are a wrestler and the midget who was a wrestler actually say it, it was a bad checking but it happened
Yes. The dad. Biggest POS in the whole story!
This nigga looks like a grown up Ralphie from Christmas Story
TomSka has gotten really good with his American accent
Sometimes the subculture of professional wrestling is ridiculous
hahah he thought he worked for the building thats hilarious
If JBL would have done what New Jack did, would it be received the same way?
JBL isn't New Jack. Jack worked people stiff for wrongs they did. JBL just beat people up becuase he could get away with it. JBL never asked if Blue Meany was okay when he was assaulting him. Jack checked on Mass multiple times and Mass said "I'm fine. Keep going."
Mass Transit was the Traci Lords of Indy Wrestling.
Meanie seemed intent on trying to make this guy look deserving of what he got. But if half of what he says is true, then red flags were everywhere. How the fuck did no one think to verify this guy even after he convinced them to let him wrestle.
His father vouched for him
Yea but still Paul Heyman shouldn't had let the KID Wrestle without checking his facts first.
1) he should had called killer KWASKY to ask him if what THE KID SAID is true.
Also like our friend said if what blue mennie SAID is true red flag were everywhere first HOW THE HELL DO YOU ASK ¡¡¡NEW JACK!!! OF ALL PEOPLE TO CUT YOU?!!! BLUE MENNIE SAID IT NEW JACK IS THE MOST BRUTAL PERSON WHEN IT COMES TO BLADING
I was there, and recognized him a phony wrestler- fake show on local public access channel.
Well, the last 30 seconds were random.
Everyone makes excuses for this. The company didn't almost get shut down because a kid lied. It almost got shut down because New Jack took liberties with a guy he didn't like and purposefully split the arteries on his forehead open with a knife. Regardless of him breaking locker room rules, one of the biggest rules in wrestling is that you never intentionally injure someone. You hear stories of Bob Holly and Bradshaw roughing people up but at least they stay out of the he hospital and are pretty much fine short of a few aches.
Agree!
Did Meanie age a thousand years when i wasn't looking?
Age catches up to all of us eventually.
intertesting and honest, humble opinion/fact of what happened that night, but he should have put more blame on New Jack.
Ryan Blevins hold up dont put all the blame on new jack eric kulas was in the wrong too he shouldn't lied about his age and ask jack to cut him and also jack shouldn't went that far with it
This was a work. An extreme work. They knew this would happen and become New Jack legend. Which is why he never got arrested. Even the XPW incident was a botched work.
im pretty sure new jack and the kid didnt plan ahead of time to slice deep enough to cut an artery
I wouldn't wanna have a match with New Jack! He would just beat the Hell out of people with those weapons!
And the crowd loved it they would have turned on them if he stopped
I remember this from when i was a teenager
You gotta kinda admire the balls on that kid,
Mass transit...snuck in, underage. Lied. Strutting around the locker room smoking and talking to Pauly, Devon, and New Jack like equals...lol
And as he got carted away, still had enough defiance to give the double bird to the fans.
Idiot was a local backyard wrestler- I know because I had seen his fake as f wrestling show on public access channel.
I remember that night. I works the match after this and thought the whole thing was a tragedy. FYI- Paul Heyman still owes me 200 bucks.
Is paul Heyman as much of a dusche bag as people say he is
I'm shocked. 😮
I was at the show, and had seen this phony on a fake public access wrestling show.
Well you know what the Roman's say ....... "Fuckin Axl".
I was at that show, and had seen mass transit on a public access cable channel, doing utterly fake matches. Him and his friends were backyard wrestlers, not trained.
1:07 pretty sure pauly didn’t come up with the gimmick or is that not what meanie is saying?
I think Meanie meant that the name was Paul's idea.
JUST SPIT IT OUT ALREADY!
Blue Meanie is now Grey Meanie
So the kid lied about his age
So the kid asked New Jack to cut him
So the kid asked to get offense in.....................
That STILL did not mean he deserved to get gashed and nearly bleed to death right there in front of his father. If what the kid did was so bad, the ECW locker room should have kicked him out, not tried to take his life in front of a a live wrestling audience.
Also, he was ONLY 17 AND IM SURE STARSTRUCK! Sad to see people defending New Jack and the company on this!
New Jack is the last person on Earth you'd ask to cut you. Kid brought it all on himself.
WOW! Lost for words.
Meanie looks just like Jeff Daniels
I have been self taught in wrestling
That guys looks like Jeff Daniels
The kid Eric kulas over there's my buddy unfortunately he passed away a while back and his brother passed away 2 they've basically passed away from the same thing but I seen that video sitting in Eric's living room while he was smoking pack at the PAC at the pack of cigarettes and I was a little kid watching this video watching his kid get his ass beat and it was like so crazy to me that this guy was on TV get beat up like that sitting right next to me and it was a kid I grew up with and it's sad because him and his brother were really nice people like he would literally do anything just so she could talk to you and have a friend do you know what I mean he was a really good kid rest in peace Eric
Despite everything wrong and shady the kid and the father did to get him there there is no excuse for New Jack's actions. And dont tell me "that's ecw, that's new jack", the man was a fucking psychopath, he belonged in a nutty house strapped to a jacket. There was nothing good NJ ever did, plain and simple.
I was there with my husband and he knew that this was real he said New Jack is going to jail
It's hard for me to put all of the blame on New Jack because he didn't know the kid was underage plus I'm sure Mass Transit had watched New Jack before and how violent he was
What's with the weird, random question at the end?
They were a weird couple
I have nerve damage I've broken my nose, broke my arm, destroyed my knee, blowout the muscles in my back
Why would you think anybody gives a shit?
@@RawKetchup Exactly he looking for attention lmao
How do you just show up?
Jeff Daniels let himself go.
Transit said he was 23 if anyone is wondering, and he had fake ID.
