Got to kick this off now because this is no shitty WWE event. WWE.com didn't have the match layouts w/ picture like they normally do for the PPV's. :nono:

Anyway, so just talk about anything related to ECW in here. Memories of when you first watched, memories of live events, favorite characters, angles, matches etc......

CHICKENS!

With the way WWE is hyping this event (particularly over the last week), I'm way more excited than I thought I'd be. I'm hoping they can continue their positive momentum for one more night at least.

I will mark the hell out as soon as I hear Fonzie's whistle. And if RVD takes two-and-a-half hours to get to the ring, it will feel like the old days.

As I mentioned in Kayfabe's thread, I was introduced to ECW around 96 when my freinds told me about it. It was on the MSG channel in New York at 2 at the morning, so I would catch it if I was still awake by then. I believed it was real for a while as well.

Favorite moment back then was probably when the Dudleys broke Beulah's neck.

I actually learned about ECW from "Pro Wrestling Illustrated" in the mid '90s. The first time I actually saw ECW wrestlers was when they invaded RAW just before Barely Legal. I did some channel surfing late one night and found that their syndicated show played on PASS Sports in Michigan. One of my first vivid ECW memories was of Terry Funk defending the World Title against Shane Douglas and Douglas getting disqualified (!) because Francine wouldn't stop biting Funk.

But PASS Sports got bought out by FOX Sports Net in the late '90s, so I lost my ECW viewing opportunities until they debuted on TNN. I never missed an episode of that show for that very reason. I didn't want to look back and think "Man, I wish I had watched more of it before (insert bad thing) happened."

When we moved to our new house a few years ago, we bought a trampoline, and I used to pretend to do ECW shows with my Hulk Hogan wrestling buddy. Even went so far as to make a Singapore cane of my own. Good times.

I also loved the Dudley Clan because it was such a unique concept. There were so many of them, even though some didn't last long. Was it me or was Bubba so much bigger back then? Anyway, each of them played thier respective characters to a tilt. Dudley Dudley was my favorite.

<font color=goldenrod>Damn, I want this PPV so badly.</font> :(

Yeah, Buh Buh has lost alot of weight since then. The Dudleys ruled in ECW. I hope they bring back Sign Guy and Gertner tonight. RIP Big Dick.

Bubba was fucking huge back in the day.

I miss going to an ECW show and having security come outside with a big been before the show saying "Weapons for New Jack" and people would start dumping shit in...

I also miss hanging out with Balls and New Jack in a bar after some shows.

Hell, I pretty much miss everything about ECW.

Steve Corino was the shit...

I'd order the ppv, but I'm broke, and have no faith in WWE.

Hopefully they'll prove me wrong...

I doubt it.

My first memories of ecw were in 99 when they started showing it on a channel called bravo over here in the UK. Since then i have seen a lot of ECW footage dating back as far as 94.

I think the best ECW ppv i have seen is heatwave 98. Just out of curiosity what are other peoples favourite ECW ppv's.

That was awesome. I think i was the only third grader staying up late to see ECW on msg. This is the first time i'm ordering a ppv in a long time.

Beulah is a chick, right? breaking a womans neck... that had to gain some heat... or cheers if she was a bitch :o

A BIT EARLY LC! [/corky]

I get the P.P.V free :D. So does anyone who has SkySports (in Britain anyway). Only thing is it's at 1am (2 here in Spain). But I'll definitely watch, and tape it :yes:.

I'm debating over whether to get it or not.

Got some potentially awesome matches there (Bentoit/Guerrero, Storm/Jericho, Rey/Psychosis) but the problem is...

If instead of wrestling all they do is focus on hitting each other with weapons then it'll be really kinda crappy.

And the way they've been portraying ECW on TV makes it seem like they're going to just focus on the weapons and screw everything else.

So it's a risk...

Plus there are also matches I have no interest in, such as the Dudley Boys, or Mike Awesome.

So yeah... I am undecided on whether to order this or not.

When was that added!? :eek: :drool:

this will actually be the first PPV I will be watching since Wrestlemania 20 :eek:

First time i saw ecw was in the mid 90s on channel 48 in philadelphia. I remember 911 coming out as a face and beating up the heels. I'm getting the ppv tonight, it will be the first wwe ppv ive ordered in i think 4 years but it will be worth it. I saw some other ppv's at school where they used to get them for us but they stopped this year and i didnt "order" them

Nah those will be technical matches, and if they use weapons trust me..it won't ruin it. ECW when they had Eddy, Benoit, and Malenko they hardly if ever used any weapons they were known as pure tech wrestlers of course.

Probably in the matches where weapons will be primary will be in the Dudleys, Awesom/tanaka, and the 3 way dance. And why isn't RVD wresling Sabu!??

They should bring in Sabu strapped on that stretcher like in the beginning.:y:

Ordered it already. :cool: Can't wait. I pray to God this is not a disappointment. I have a good feeling about it and WWE have hyped it well.

Been listening to the ECW theme :love:

RVD's injured. I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up in Sabu's corner (with Fonzie, natch) if Sabu winds up in an impromptu match.

This will also be the first PPV I've ordered since WM21.

And Karlsberg, I think Heatwave may be my favorite, too. Granted, I haven't seen many complete shows (almost all of my tapes are compilations), but that was a great one. Sabu/RVD vs. Shinzaki/Hayabusa was :drool:-worthy.

I just hope they all come out to their ECW music. If RVD comes out to "one Of A Kind" instead of Walk, I'll be pissed. If The Sandman comes out to anything other than "Enter Sandman" :nono:

I remember hearing about ECW, but I didn't get it on TV. They'd always come locally to the War Memorial Center in South Florida...but that was it. Then, I began to get it through the Sunshine Network and DirecTV's generic owned channel...and it was around 97-98 (Attitude Era). Bam Bam Bigelow had just left ECW by then....Mr. PPV RVD was instantly my favorite with the TV Title. The rivalry between The Whole F'n Show Jerry Lynn and Mr. PPV Rob Van Dam was GREAT. I loved it so much.

However, my favorites were the insanely crazy heels that ECW had. I used to mark out for them....the Dudley Boyz (they were so dick to the crowd it was great) and Steve Corino! The crowd despised Corino so much, and it was so great.

It's just a shame that by the time I started to watch ECW, it only lasted about 2 more years. I wish I could've seen it during its initial peroid, but that didn't happen obviously. It did suck though as to how both WWE and WCW were raiding so much of their talent...Taz, Mike Awesome, Lance Storm, Shane Douglas...both those wrestlers did need some money for all their hard work so I don't blame them for leaving.

I'm going to watch the PPV tonight hopefully...

edit: One thing that pisses me off is how WWE just destroyed the credibilities of a lot of the wrestlers. Lance Storm, Taz, RHINO (they really fucked him over the most by turning that sadistic animal into a jobber), etc.

Most memorable moments for me were when Sandman and Raven returned in 99. I started watching ECW in early 98 and seeing these ECW icons in their homeland was purely amazing.

Oh yeah....

*gets thumbs ready*




*cracks neck*





ROB

VAN

DAM

MMMM Heatwave 98, Taz vs. Bigelow Street Fight for the FTW Title. I love that moment after they go through the ramp, Bigelow crawls out and stuggles to get to the ring. Taz jump out of nowhere, does the throat slash, runs and locks the Tazmission in on Bigelow, tap out.

I hear RVD will be doing a shoot interview on the show and will be doing something else. Nice

Me to but that damn satelite company screwed me. Hopefully it will get on to the internet soon because I really want to see it.

I am heading out now to watch the ppv, going to tape it of course. I hope this is worth 30 bucks!

Yeah but this isn't ECW. This is WWE's ECW.

They may have been pure technical wrestlers in ECW but the WWE seems to be focused on the weapons.

Like those ECW Rules matches they had.

Bentoit/Tajiri was crap.

I don't want to pay to see more of that.

And he says he doesn't hold a grudge. :lol: :p

Since I really don't know, did they really break her neck (accidentally) or did they "break" her neck (part of storyline)?

I'll be getting the PPV. I might be dissapointed, I don't have a cheeseburger, but I may see some good stuff. LIKE CHEESEBURGERS AS A WEAPON :yes:

I'm ordering it...can't wait

And to make things interesting, Sabu should be screaming all high pitched with a 2 second rest in between. Like did you ever see Beavis and Butthead in the episode "Nothing Happening" where Stuart blows himself up with his chem set and hes taken out in the hospital on a stretcher screaming? They should do that with Sabu :rofl:

I'm not ordering it. Didn't really watch ECW so i will be lost

nah, not ordering it. $35 is just too much for me. I'll get it in 2 months for like half that price. Enjoy the show though guys. Should be a really good one.

Did I ever mention that I love Sky Sports? :love:

EXTREME HEAT IS ON

omg. marks out

lol, did I just see some guy wearing a polo shirt to an ECW show? get the fuck out of here

haha, "Shut the Fuck Up" chant by the fans.

Will this event be in the spirit of the ecw of old or will it be merely a WWE degredation of a mythic name.

You guys better post results and shit

Well they got the look down, that's a good start

Joey Styles could easily have played Elijah Wood's Sin City character

JOEY!!!!!!!! JOEY!!!!!!!!! JOEY!!!!!!

Cactus T-Shirt :cool:

Lance Storm in classic attire using a White Zombie rip off music.

Is Dawn pregnant?

w/ Dawn Marie btw

Yes.

LIONHEART CHRIS JERICHO YES!

ehhhhh, they're using WWE music. But I guess that was bound to happen. Jericho in old attire, introduced as Lionheart!!!!

Lionheart :drool:

It's time for the Lionheart on Raw I think.

He's even using his old Vest

what color is the vest?

Foley commentating sounds a very very slightly bunged up Heenan

Black, with the old Lionheart motif on the back

Not a moan, but its just not the same with crisp production
