On the official ECW site, Joey Styles named Steve Richards the "Most Extreme Player" for the year of 2007, looking at the rash of recent surgeries Richards had to undergo to get full range of his breathing passages and vocal cords back.

Styles goes into long detail but Richards has been suffering from issues stemming from a May 1997 broken neck that he received during the Original ECW during a frightening spot where Terry Funk dropped a guard rail on his neck in Buffalo, NY.

In the article, Styles writes:

"I expect Stevie to return to the ring in early 2008 with little fanfare, if any. However, Stevie himself, his family and his close friends will know what he endured to once again resume his dream of being a WWE Superstar. Win or lose, every match is a personal victory for Stevie Richards."
