where did you live that you think Douglas invented the 3 way dance, it was done for years, heck i saw a roddy piper, paul orndorf, jimmy snuka 3 way dance at a WWF house show when Douglas was most likely in diapers.
popularized the work shoot promo? do you know heyman was the brain child for that? that mick foley and steve austin were more succesful in ECW with the work shoot than douglas? The whole gimmick of the work shoot is getting yourself over when talent alone wont get you there, thats why the work shoot is already passe. No one does it anymore, how is it a revolution if it's already dead?
nothing douglas did transformed the industry, you have to seperate your love for ECW from the fact that a jobber was used well at it's inception.
the fact is heyman is a genius at using one or two dimensional wrestlers and making them look like a star. Taz is a perfect example, looked like a monster in ECW, but put him in the WWE and even though they tried to push him, the fact that he was slow, and tiny could not be overcome,
Martel has wrestled in all the major promotions, wrestled at a higher rate in his post prime days than Douglas in his prime. He held one of the most prestigious belts ever the AWA World Title, and the WWF tag titles twice when they meant something.
Douglas held one of the biggest Indy titles in the world,t he ECW world title, not in the same league as Martel.
