| '''Team ECK''' was a WWF (now WWE) ] consisting of ], ] ] ]. The stable lasted from mid-] to mid-]. The name came from the first names from each wresler: '''E'''dge, '''C'''hristian & '''K'''urt Angle. They later became '''Team RECK''' when ] joined the ] and the team. Established around the time when Kurt Angle won the ] crown in 2000, the group was known best for its comedic promos, which usually included either Edge or Christian, whose strange lingo went over really well with the fans. Although the team was very successful at getting over as the comic heel unit of the WWE in 2000-2001 without taking away from the individual characters, this stable had ostensibly come to an end around mid-2001. | |||
| At ], the four members of this stable took up all four of the semi final spots. Edge defeated Rhyno in their semifinal match, Kurt Angle defeated Christian in their semifinal match, and with interference from Christian, Edge beat Kurt to become King of the Ring. Around this time, the ] storyline was working its way in, and Rhyno joined the ] as an ECW member. Edge's victory started a rivalry between Edge and Angle that would build up and last for the next year (which resulted in Kurt Angle's current haircut), as well as was the basis for Christian's jealousy which led him to turn on Edge in an October episode of ]. Eventually, Rhyno, Angle, and Christian were all part of ], although Angle was in it as a mole, and outside a feud between Christian and Edge (who stayed with WWF) over the ], the members never really were involved in any of the same spots within that unsuccessful superplot. | |||
| None of the members ever allied again until late 2004 when ], who was appointed one-night only General Manager of ] due to his team (], ], ], himself) defeating the team of ], ], Edge, and ] the night before at ], booked ] to team up for the first time in over three years against Benoit and ], beginning a chain of events in which Edge and Christian became loosely involved in each other's feuds, teaming up several times until Christian was drafted to Smackdown in the ]. | |||
| The night after ], Edge and Angle teamed for the first time since the RECK split in an 8-person tag team match alongside Snitsky and ] against ], ], ], and ] ]. Unfortunately for them, the match ended in defeat when Edge was chokeslammed by Big Show, then pinned by all four of the opponents at once. | |||
| Also, since Rhino (and Christian Cage afterwards) joined ], both Christian and Rhino have opposed members and associates of ], a status which has the tendency to bring them to working together against the main heel faction of TNA. | |||
