Bloodsport: ECW's Most Violent Matches
Three little letters say it all E-C-W, E-C-W, E-C-W
This is it! A 2 Disc DVD collection of some of the greatest matches in ECW history. Brutality at it's best mixed with some of the best wrestling in the industry that set the standard for the rest of the industry. Tables, chairs, ladders, Singapore canes, broken beer bottles... you name it, these guys have used it. This DVD takes a walk down memory lane of the glory days of Extreme Championship Wrestling. This set chronicles some of the early days of the original ECW all the way up to ECW One Night Stand 2005.
This collection of matches is unbelievable! I'm very surprised that they brought out some of the most brutal matches from the original ECW. Nothing short of pure athleticism, adrenaline and violence throughout this set. Along with a great list of extra bonus features, there is plenty for all on this set. Plus it's nice to hear the real story from guys like Joey Styles, Axl Rotten, the Dudley Boyz, Danny Doring, Amish Roadkill and others.
I highly recommend this set to anyone who loved the original ECW and anyone curious to what ECW was really about. I will say that this is set is NOT FOR THE WEAK OF HEART. Some of these matches are absolutely disturbing. The first time I watched the Taipei Death Match between Axl Rotten and Ian Rotten, I had to pause it a few times to shake it off because I was that disturbed by it and I have seen some honest to God brutal matches. Again, just be sure you can handle it because from there, it only gets worse in some spots.
Most everyone has done a decent job listing the matches so I'll just list some of the highlights for me:
Taipei Death Match
Axl Rotten v Ian Rotten
Great storyline and just complete brutality at it's best! This one isn't even a match, it's a drunken brawl with broken beer bottles.
Stretcher Match
RVD v Sabu
This match isn't over the top violent like some Sabu's other matches but its very physical with a lot of high-flying and RVD's martial arts skills are at an all time high in this match as well. Great match!
Barbed Wire Match (ECW Title)
Sabu v Terry Funk (champion)
This match was just crazy! I seriously couldn't believe my eyes were seeing this. I had seen bits and pieces of this match before a long time ago but I had never seen it in its entirety and my God, to see that kind of passion for the business from these 2 was amazing. I can't name many other guys that I could see in this kind of match.
Chicago Street Fight (ECW Tag Team Titles)
The Dudley Boyz v Spike Dudley and Balls Mahoney
"SAY HELLO TO MY LIL' FLAMING TABLE!" That's all I need to say about this match.
I Quit Match
Tommy Dreamer v CW Anderson
I'm not a big fan of CW but the man put on a great match with Dreamer. If its one thing that Tommy can do, he can put on a hardcore clinic on anyone. This match was on the supposed "last" ECW PPV and at the time, what a way to go out.
ECW One Night Stand 2005
Masato Tanaka v Mike Awesome
OK, I'll be the first to say it, RIP Mike Awesome but when it comes to ECW, he sold out and to WCW of all brands. I couldn't stand that this became his legacy after some of things he did for ECW and then to just throw it away for a little money. That bothered me to no end and for years I hated the man. After this match, I changed my mind about him again and I gained a new respect for the man. He came out and got it done and put on an amazing show. And Masato Tanaka is always amazing as well so this match doesn't disappoint at all. The icing on the barbed wire cake!
