ECW DVDs

[The_Wolf]

i was wondering if there is anyone here who knows a bit about ecw and which dvds i should buy. ive seen a few around but i dont really know which ones are the best to get
any help would be sweet

[Epitaph]

Hmm

My personal favourites on ECW DVD go like this

ECW Barely Legal 1997 – Features and EXCELLENT 6 Man MPW match up that has Japanese Wrestlers using a Japanese/Mexican wrestling style, Possibly the best match on the show, It also features Great Sasuke, Taka, Terry Boy, **** Togo and some others – It also features a Okay-ish bout between Taz and Sabu, IMO it’s too short, But it’s a stiff encounter none the less – Funk Vs Richards Vs Sandman is also another entertaining match, Hardcore Brawl also, It’s basically a set up to the winner facing Raven right after that match – It’s also the first ECW PPV so it’s pretty good IMO.

The rest are pretty hit and miss I’m afraid, some feature excellent Tajiri/Guido/Crazy, whilst some feature Pointless things.

The only other PPV I could say that’s Strong from top to bottom would have to be, ECW Heatwave 1998, it’s got a EXCELLENT match up between Storm and Candido, as well as a Excellent Lynn and Credible match. I also love the Tag match, Rob Van Dam and Sabu Vs Hayabusa and Shinzaki.

Which ones are you interested in picking up?

[The_Wolf]

these are a few i can think of but i think there were more:
ECW HOUSE PARTY 96
ECW CYBER SLAM 98
ECW HOUSE PARTY 98
ECW NOVEMBER TO REMEMBER 96
ECW NOVEMBER TO REMEMBER 95
ECW HARDCORE HEAVEN

im not a big fan of ecw, actually to be honest ive only seen the one ecw ppv which had a spike vs awesome match and awesome powerbombed spike from the top turnbuckle into the table. but that ppv was awesome. if any of their ppvs come even close to that one id be very happy

Mike Awesome Vs Spike - Guilty as Charged 00 - You've just reminded me some little **** i went to school with still has my Copy of it!!!

Some of the Early ECW show's are infact some of the best thing's around of ECW. The product IMO was at it's prime in 1995/1996 and was New and VERY energetic and i personally do love there product from that time, Getting to see Mexican Death match up's between the like's of Psicosis and Rey is just something you dont see every day. Same can be said for the Austin Vs Mikey Whipwreck match, i loved that too.

I dont think i've seen any of the one's you've mentioned though

[The_Wolf]

Did austin win that match against whipwreck? i know one of the dvds i mentioned had austin in it cause it had him and cactus on the cover.

I would say Guilty as Charged 2001. RVD vs Jerry Lynn was phenomenal.

Hmm

It has a pretty strong under-Card IMO. Mainly in the form of Dreamer/Anderson and Tajiri/Whipwreck Vs FBI Vs Crazy/Kash is what saves the show IMO from total suck age.

The RVD/Lynn match is a bit of a disappointment IMO, it’s nothing more than a sloppy spot fest. Watch the match again and you can probably tell that there are quite a few mistakes in it. Infact I think that is the worst encounter that they had. I like their hardcore heaven match more than this one though. Shame jerry lynn never really went over in any of these match ups

Well it is my only ECW DVD next to Heatwave 96' so I thought it was pretty good.

[JustinCredible]

any...just depends on who ya like...I got Guilty as charged, History,and a couple more, I forget which, I havent watched them in months...but i think i am going to right now...

edit-I have Guilty as charged,Extreme Revolution, History,and Deep Impact...

all are VERY good, as most ECW DVDs are...

[Y2J World Champ]

My personal favorite ECW DVD that I believe every true ECW fan should have is ECW: Extreme Evolution and ECW: Path of Destruction, just some great stuff in both DVD's.

[The_Wolf]

why isnt jerry lynn in the wwe amymore? every ecw fan seems to say his matches were fantastic...also his tna matches seem to get a lot of props

[Y2J World Champ]

He is a great wrestler but all the WWE ever did with him was give him the (light-heavyweight) cruiserweight title and that was it. I remember he faced RVD (both men have a classic feud in ECW) in a 5 minute match on velocity (If I remember correctly) which was a horrible thing the WWE did. This is one of those superstars the WWE dropped the ball on just like Sean O'Haire.

Either way it was still a joy to see the two end their legendary fued ias the last match of ECW ever...

the card was dissapointing...Even the TLC was dissapointing...it was all a bit rushed, in order to operate the big build up to RVD and Lynn...I belive the surprise appearance by RVD was executed perfectly, but in order for it to be executed perfectly, sadly, the other matches where rushed, and turned to ...

They should just have a Best Of ECW DVD, having the best matches/feuds from beginging of ecw to the end of ecw.
