Genius of The Raven Gimmick- ECW

What Raven started in ECW went on to be redone in every promotion he wrestled in since, with Raven's Nest, the loner cult gimmick, everything that could only really reach it's potential in ECW.

Just to give a little back story of Raven and his career before he debuted the gimmick.

Scott Levy, the man who would gain success under the guise of a brain washing, grunge inspired cult leader wrestled under different name's during his early career, Scotty The Body, 'Palm Beach Heart Throb' Scott Anthony, Scotty Flamingo, and Johnny Polo in WWF. In January of 1995 he made a historic debut in the now defunc Extreme Championship Wrestling along side Stevie Richards.

The week's prior to Raven's Debut, Stevie Richards had been teasing a new partner, even going as far as using ring name's based around Levy's previous run's, such as Stevie Flamingo, Stevie The Body and Stevie Polo.
