Biography
Ronald Jason Knight is an American professional wrestler and manager. He is best known for his stints in Eastern / Extreme Championship Wrestling, where he was a one time World Television Champion. WWE (1993) After debuting in 1984, Knight wrestled on independent circuit before making an appearance on in the main event of the fourth episode of the WWE's flagship television show, Monday Night Raw, on February 1, 1993, where he lost to Lex Luger in Luger's WWE on-screen ring debut. He made his final appearance on the April 26 episode of Raw in a losing effort to Mr. Hughes. Eastern/Extreme Championship Wrestling (1993, 1994–1995) A few months after his last appearance in WWE, Knight debuted in Eastern Championship on September 18 at the promotion's first and only UltraClash event, where he and Ian Rotten lost a tag team match to The Public Enemy. Knight would wrestle one more match, a victory over The Canadian Wolfman, before leaving the promotion. Nearly a year later, Knight, simply under the name Jason, returned to the now renamed Extreme Championship Wrestling on August 13, 1994 and defeated Mikey Whipwreck for the World Television Championship at Hardcore Heaven. Jason would successfully retain the championship several times against the likes Whipwreck, Rockin' Rebel, Hack Meyers and former World Television Champion J.T. Smith. On November 4, Jason was unable to become a double champion as he and Dean Malenko lost to World Tag Team Champions Whipwreck and Cactus Jack in a title match. That same night, Jason lost the World Television Title to 2 Cold Scorpio. Jason would then reignite his feud with Whipwreck, with the two trading victories, before Jason began to manage The Eliminators. On November 3, 1995, Jason and Whipwreck ended their feud in a match for Whipwreck's World Heavyweight Championship, which Whipwreck retained. A few weeks later at November to Remember on November 18, Jason lost to Konnan in only 14 seconds with Taz as the special guest referee. On April 26, Knight and Ron Zombie lost to Slaughterhouse (Crazy Chainsaw Bastard and The Outpatient) in a tag team match for Powerhouse Wrestling. Exactly a year and five months later, Knight returned to PHW, where he lost a hardcore match to Jose Perez. Later on in the night, he, Gino Martino and Jimmy Cash lost a six-man tag team match to Big Business, Don Vega and New Jack.

Hardcore Homecoming
This anthology of wrestling mayhem from Extreme Championship Wrestling promises an "emotional barbed wire hell," and it delivers. In one gory match, Terry Funk, whose specialty is taking more punishment than any sane person could stand, meets the evil and vicious Sabu in a ring surrounded with barbed wire. In their battle for the ECW World Heavyweight championship, it doesn't take long for them to be smeared with blood, beating the hell out of each other while hopelessly entangled in strands of wire. It eventually takes several men with tools to cut them free as the announcer proclaims that the action just witnessed is too brutal to ever be shown on television. In another match Steve Austin, before he became "Stone Cold" and attained primetime stardom, battles in a "three-way dance" with other notorious bad asses Mikey Whipwreck and the Sandman. And Mick Foley, in his "Cactus Jack" persona, tangles with Terry Funk and gets burned (literally).
