sweet finally i get to go back to watching wrestling again R ! V! D! is my favorite one of the greatest. nice
Looked good to me. The show as a whole is better than WWE. If they could get a few more people watching, get the word spread, they could push Raw.
why are they getting desperate by signing this joke RVD never interested me and even all the hype people give him, I had actually looked up his ECW matches and still nothing impressed me, then again ECW never was that impressive just a bunch of weaponized matches not much wrestling in it
Mr D, if you ever went to an ECW event live, you'd know what the 'hype' was all about. If you watched a Dean Malenko vs Eddie Guerrero match or RVD vs Jerry Lynn match or the multitude of 'real' wrestling matches, then you'd have a different opinion of ECW. RVD, Sabu, Tazz, Sandman, Dudley Boys, Raven, Shane Douglas and many, many more contributed to bring ECW from a small indy company to a viable 3rd option for wrestling during a huge period of success. If they weren't blocked by the WWF as far as their network deal, then we definitely could've seen ECW possibly overtaking the #2 spot as WCW was in its free fall from the top of the ratings.
I like both styles of wrestling. A match where it's no holds barred, anything goes. I also like watching a straight up wrestling match where you go move for move, hold for hold just to see who the better wrestler is.
RVD brings a big name to the ring that will draw interest from marks across the country teaming him and jeff hardy together is pretty wise IMO, cause these guys have an intense fanbase that are extremely loyal.
ECW wrestling was more of street fighting, then anything else RVD, Sabu, Sandman, are wrestlers I don't care for. they couldn't conform into a good program like WWE very well, they need there weapons to fight. to be honest RVD was the better of the three. but not by much Tazz, Dudley Boys, Raven, Eddie, Dean those were wrestlers, even though the Dudley Boys seem to still need to use tables the don't rely on them like the others, they just use them for gimmick purposes.
I love "old school" ECW! [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-AJn-huDzc]YouTube - ECW Sabu returns with Taz in the ring - crowd goes CRAZY!![/ame]
