Was it during the ECW Hardcore TV tapings? Might try to look for it

[close]

They featured part of the show during the TV taping’s, but it wasn’t the tag team match. It was some thing with Raven and Richards.

[close]

BWO was great. Speaking of Richards, RTC was underrated as well. Great heel gimmick that was genuinely annoying.

Raven was great in ECW but his potential was wasted in WWF. WCW at least gave him the Flock

RTC was great.

Raven’s WCW run was his best work. His DDT also looked it's best in WCW once he figured out how to take the back bump to give it that lethal snap motion.

Also loved his drop toehold into the chair.

Was not a fan of mascara, dreadlocks, and kilt Raven.

How did you feel about the WCW cruiserweight division? Probably the most overlooked part of the Attitude Era imo


Mysterio, Eddie, Malenko, Ultimo Dragon, Jericho, La Parka, Psicosis, Lizmark Jr, Hector Garza, so many entertaining matches


I’m also a big Scorpio fan and his matches in ECW are some of the best

Loved the WCW cruiserweight division, especially Psicosos and Ultimo Dragon. Malenko and Psicosis always put on a good match.

I loved Scorpio during his WCW run before ECW back in the early 90’s. His match vs Benoit at Superbrawl 3 is one of the most underrated matches of all time.

I don’t feel like WCW used Scorp the way he should’ve been used. The whole dance video for his debut was hokey. Wasn’t as bad as WWF though. Used him as a jobber and completely glossed over the fact that he was on their program as Flash Funk just a few years prior

[WPG]

@PatrickSkateman have fun tonight we are all jealous, anyone else going?

I've been busy with school work lately so haven't watched a ton of wrestling outside of twitter and dynamite. I caught raw and SD this week and am pretty excited for mania. Been a big Cody fan since he was Dashing so I'd love for him beat Roman.

People who have been following more closely what are you excited for?

That ROH broken neck spot was very distasteful, it was well done, but I wasn't a fan.

[Mr. Kamikazi]

I want Gunther to retain. I’m always into seeing Paul lose & I really want McIntyre to win although I feel like Priest will pull his own heist on Rollins & win.

[PatrickSkateman]

I was hyped on the Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson spot. Place went nuts.

[Mr. Kamikazi]

Zayne! Well, Gunther, please move onto the Heavyweight championship soon.

[WPG]

Zayne! Well, Gunther, please move onto the Heavyweight championship soon.

Agreed! favourite match so far, getting a bit of Hogan vibes from the rock, ball punch to tripping into turnbuckle made me laugh, still cool to see him back

match picked up I was hating, crazy roided up tho not a fan of that

[TerryFunk]

Got home from work just in time to throw the main event on. Might be biased because The Rock has always been my favorite wrestler but that was a great match. Great build up of suspense in the beginning, a lot of good false finishes. I was thoroughly pleased

[PatrickSkateman]

Headed to night 2 tomorrow night. I think Cody goes over.

Hoping Montez gets his HBK heel turn and singles run tomorrow night.

[Atiba Applebum]

Speed guy helping Logan Paul retain might have overtaken Nicholas as worst WM moment

[WPG]

fuck yeah Cody, my dumb ass had one too many beers and thought Moxley was coming out for the Shield theme.

Overbooked in a good way, almost had to be with all Romans shenanigans over the years

[Mr. Kamikazi]

The story is finished.

@WPG don’t feel bad, we all wanted it.

[Bobby Peru]

I, too, had a Mox moment.

I liked both main events and the big celebration for Cody’s win felt great. Felt like the mark of a turning point for WWE. Was hoping for Stone Cold in Undertaker’s spot but that was good too.

Was worried Sami’s win would be soured by people wanting Chad Gable, but it went well. Brainbuster on the turnbuckle was amazing. Couldn’t help but think it felt like a dig on AEW following the Takeshita and Osprey match.

[PatrickSkateman]

My night 2 seat was way better than night one.

The main event was great. I actually think Seth Rollins went down bad at the end because he lost a bet on Iowa for the women’s basketball national championship game.

[blurst_of_times]

Jey vs Jimmy, what a letdown. Otherwise pretty much every other match was either solid or great. Personally excited to see Bayley go face & win a title again - Iyo wrestled so well too. Obviously seeing Cody finally get that title was great, despite how tiring the whole Bloodline storyline has been. But Damien cashing in & winning a world title was my favorite moment of the weekend. He's been a workhorse for the past couple of years and has only gotten better. His match with Bad Bunny proved he can hold it down in a main event, I'm happy to see they finally trust him to hold the belt.

[Dante Bichette]

Hunter really is cooking.

In a perfect world, there would be a Mox and a Dustin run-in

[TerryFunk]

That he is. That might be the best WM since before covid. Vince should’ve stepped away a long time ago

[PatrickSkateman]

I cheered for Logan Paul. That man can work.

Seth Rollins’ Mummers entrance was 🔥.

Priest cash in was great too.

Bummed Kross lost and had to eat the pin too.

[Mr. Kamikazi]

The Zayne vs Gunther match was the best of both nights. Total David VS Goliath match & a huge upward move for both guys. I did enjoy Paul/Orton/Ko’s match more than I thought. I actually found myself wanting KO to get it since Zayne had his moment the night before.

[Lame_Nigga]

Man, that main event made me emotional. It was time for Roman’s reign to end but I’m gonna miss it.

This twitter always has the best story analysis for WWE

Mox is too stubborn to do anything related to WWE. Meanwhile, he’ll be part of a European faction that hardly makes sense.

[Mr. Kamikazi]

Also trying to determine my thoughts on AEW being so desperate to get more viewers by supposedly airing the CM Punk/Jack Perry All In footage......

It is factual that even with Okada & Mone, the ratings haven't budged.

I genuinely can't tell if you're trolling with your posts in here. They read like one of those twitter accounts called @AEWIZGAY is whatever

Not at all. That’s not my intention. Listen, I watch it, I own many AEW figures (I’m a wrestling action figure collector) & know when it’s good. But resorting to nonsense like airing videos of fights & continuing to have a lack of storylines make it a very difficult product to enjoy. I still think of that leather face/TCS match which was embarrassing. Reminds me of the Demon garbage in WCW.  I’m a fan of almost 30 years. Do I like most Indy wrestling? No, it’s a bad circus to me. Can AEW be better? Yes. Why it’s not? I’m unsure. Lack of writers? Too many egos? Not sure.

Were you ever that harsh with WWE?   It was hot garbage for about 15 years and it wasn’t too long ago they did a zombie battle royale and Seth Rollins fake took Rey Misterio’s eye amongst many many other dumb decisions. 

The vid they’re showing is at least going to be presented as storyline and never would have been brought up if CM punk just kept his mouth shut
