anyone see the barbed wire match between Sabu and Terry Funk,where Sabu ripped his bicep open on the barbed wire....he just wrapped it up with tape and kept fighting.....that match was brutal.

DAK - 10-19-2007 at 09:05 PM

Yeah I have that on tape.

newbreedbrian - 10-19-2007 at 09:14 PM

yup that was awesome. ecw was flat out great, worth it for the dreamer/raven feud alone. anyone remember the chair shot heard round the world?

Discipline - 10-19-2007 at 09:19 PM

Raven/Dreamer was a classic feud. Raven is still one of my favorite wrestlers ever.

XHonusWagnerX - 10-19-2007 at 09:29 PM

Raven
Sabu

This post of course is referring to the REAL ECW, not that glorified WCW Saturday Night type bullshit that's on Tuesday nights now.

I never watch wrestling, but I'll say one thing that has me impressed with the current ECW and what I see of it when I'm watching Eureka.... one of the top guys is straight edge. I find that immensely cool. Especially when I see action figures of the guy all x'd up and "straight edge" on his belly when I'm geeking out looking for Star Wars figs.

CM Punk. Guy is insanely good. Made his name on the indies with great interviews and matches. He's being wasted in WWECW right now.

Remember CM Punks hour long iron man matches and shit? insane good.

That series of 3 against Samoa Joe was incredible, particularly the two 1-hour matches.

One of my favorite Punk moments was when he signed his WWE contract on the ROH title belt just to piss off the ROH fans. Classic moment.

bombidol - 10-21-2007 at 03:39 PM

Talkin bout the ones in IWA with Chris Hero. Though thats going back a bit.

Discipline - 10-21-2007 at 04:51 PM

Haven't seen those, but the two with Joe in ROH were off the charts good.

Muttley - 10-21-2007 at 05:47 PM

Definitely grab either volume of The Best of CM Punk in ROH. The stuff he's doing now on tv is pure bullshit compared to anything on these DVDs.

My personal favorite was the show in NJ where Raven & Punk fought a dog collar match... Tommy Dreamer made a surprise appearance to help Raven and they ended up dousing Punk with beer (Punk was HATED at the time). The place went apeshit.

I was marking out huge during that whole match. An ROH classic.

Yeah, I think that dude's cool. It's rad that straight edge gets exposure like that and the dude sells shirts that say straight edge. I'm sure tons of non-edge people buy his shit though.

bombidol - 10-22-2007 at 03:02 AM

I break my shit laughin everytime I think of some little kid goin around wearin a CM "Straight Edge" T-Shirt. Though the new design shirt he has on wwe.com is awesome lookin
