Long live the sport of ECW
ECW is world famous for being one of the most extreme wrestling promotions in the history of the sport. To this day the legend of ECW remains, and the infamous chants of its name can still be heard in other wrestling promotions, by some of the promotions most ardent fans. Many feel that had ECW not been around, there never would have been a "Attitude Era" the famous span of time where wrestling greats like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, and Mick Foley came into their own. Hot off the heels of "The Rise and Fall of ECW", WWE has decided to capatalize on the success of the DVD with a collection of some of the bloodiest, most violent matches in ECW history, from the original Bingo Hall in Philedelhia, to the currently cancelled WWE promotion. . What we have here is a great example of the diversity, edge, and off-the-beaten-track entertainment that the promotion became known for.
The 2 disc DVD includes some of the most famous matches in the promotions run, including the infamous Barbed Wire Match between ECW legends Sabu and Terry Funk. This match is famous for the blood involved, as well as the infamous injury Sabu sustained. During the match, Sabu attempted a splash in the corner, however, Funk dodged and Sabu went straight into the wire. As he came off, his arm hooked onto the barbed wire, and his right bicep was completely ripped open by the sharp thorns. Rather than end the match there, Sabu instead yells for his then yells for someone to get some duct tape, at which point he tapes the gaping hole in his arm shut, and continues the match. Another famous moment of the match was it's ending, when Sabu and Terry Funk became so entangled in the barbed wire, the match was stopped and Funk and Sabu had to be cut out of the giant mess of steel and flesh. The match was considered to be the most famous match in ECW's long history.
Another famous match was the singles match between managers Beulah McGillicutty, and Bill Alfonso. While both managers almost never wrestled any matches in their careers, the two of them had, in ECW owner Paul Heyman's words, "a spectacular fight". By the end, both wrestlers were bloodied, bruised, beaten, and had the crowd amazed at the fact that two managers had such fight in them. For me, this was one of the better matches on the DVD.
While I can't write much do the small space Ebay affords, "Blood Sport ECW: The Most Violent Matches" is a great example of the amazing promotion that was ECW. If you have grown tired of the current WWE product, or if you were a fan of the promotion back in its heyday, then this DVD will be an amazing purchase. I paid for mine, and was not dissapointed, and if you are a true wrestling afficinado, then this DVD will be like Christmas in July.
