Far from the "most violent" in ECW!!!
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
Okay now I know you guys who read my reviews are expecting comments on every match. I appreciate
all of you who read my reviews, but I have to disappoint you. There are too many matches on this DVD
to comment on every one. I only have so many characters to do a review. But I will comment on my top
favorites on the DVD, and if one sucks, I'll just say it sucks and all matches will have a ?/5 star rating.
By the way, some of these are among the most violent in ECW's history, but most are not even close.
And take notice the lack of New Jack, who had some of the most violent matches in ECW history. But
these were chosen by Paul Heyman and there's a lot of bad blood between those two. Anyway...
Public Enemy vs. Cactus Jack & Mikey Whipwreck - 2/5 Stars
Sandman & Terry Funk vs. Cactus Jack & Shane Douglas - 3/5 Stars
Ian Rotten vs. Axl Rotten - 5/5 Stars
This was the culmination of the horrifying series of matches between brother Ian and Axl. These guys had some
of the sickest, most violent matches ever seen which was dubbed "the Summer of Violence." This match is sick!!
For those of you who don't know what a Taipei Deathmatch is, let me break it down for you. You tape up your fists,
dip them into glue, then put them into broken glass, and then beat the $#!+ out of eachother!!
Rey Mysterio vs. Psicosis - 5/5 Stars
This "Mexican Deathmatch" is one of literally 500+ matches these two have had with eachother and is fantastic.
Lucha Libre at it's best. This match is super fast, lots of flying moves... you just have to see it. Don't blink either!!!
Chris Jericho vs. Pitbull #2 vs. Shane Douglas vs. 2 Cold Scorpio - 4/5 Stars
Tommy Dreamer vs. Brian Lee - 3/5 Stars
Rob Van Dam vs. Sabu - 3/5 Stars
Stevie Richards vs. Sandman vs. Terry Funk - 4/5 Stars
This match is good, but what I don't get is why Stevie Richards is in this match while Tommy Dreamer
is doing commentary with Joey Styles. No offense to Stevie, he's really cool and was pretty over, but
Tommy in my opinion should have been in this match. But still a really good, hardcore match.
Sabu vs. Terry Funk - 5/5 Stars
This is one of the best No Rope Barbed Wire Deathmatches I've ever seen. Yes, it's the match where Sabu rips
open his bicep and Terry Funk almost dies when the Barbed Wire wraps around his neck.
Beulah McGillicutty vs. Bill Alfonso - 5/5 Stars
This match is one of the bloodiest matches I've ever seen. Fonzie get his @$$ kicked BAD!!
Taz vs. Bam Bam Bigelow - 4/5 Stars
This is one of the best matches from the Bigelow / Taz feud from 1998.
Taz vs. Shane Douglas - 4/5 Stars
Dudley Boyz vs. Spike Dudley & Balls Mahoney - 4/5 Stars
Mike Awesome vs. Spike Dudley - 5/5 Stars
Awesome pummles Spike, but Spike won't stay down!!
Rhino vs. Sandman - 3/5 Stars
Little Guido vs. Super Crazy vs. Yoshihiro TAJIRI - 5/5 Stars
Tommy Dreamer vs. CW Anderson - 4/5 Stars
Mike Awesome vs. Masato Tanaka - 5/5 Stars
This is my personal favorite match on the DVD. I'm a die-hard fan of FMW and these two started there. This
is another fantastic match in one of the longest and hottest feuds in Wrestling History. Fantastic match!!!
This was Awesome's last televised match. Shut up Joey, ECW stole him from FMW, WCW stole from ECW.
This match has one of the most brutal powerbombs I have ever seen!!!
Extras include a music video, bonus interviews and a bonus match - The Gangstas vs. Public Enemy
