- Were there a lot of kids at the ECW arena?
- Norm the Lunatic 2.0?
- Just switched over to the Network as it is 20 minutes longer for some reason
- I usually try to stick with live recording or commercial releases but such is life
- It is weird that Hughes wrestles like he is the Big Show at times
- Well that was ugly!
- Love what appears to be duck tape on the ring apron
- So weird for Sandman to be in wrestling gear
- Did Jason change clothes?
- Yes Joey confirmed it
- This match is well what ECW is, sloppy brawling
- This next match is going to be more of the same, sloppy brawling. This is why I never got into ECW over the years
- I like that Joey is acting like this is some special rules match. Every ECW match is like this basically
- How many times are we going to hear that you live in Stanford Joey?
- We saw this in Smoky with the Bruise Brothers and Moondogs
- We saw this in Memphis with the Gilberts and the Lawlers
- Does that one guy in the front row have a mask? OH MY GOD IS THAT EXCALIBER?
- Why is Joey constantly yelling?
- Wait, one shot from a 2 x 4 ended it after everything that happened to PE?
- Oh I love early Tommy Dreamer
- Did he steal those trunks from Jim Neidhart?
- Dreamer is dancing his pecs a lot
- Snuka and the fans really going at it, weird
- The only line that is being crossed in my patients with ECW thus far
- That was an ugly looking fall on the floor
- In all reality, is that the first time someone kicked out of that splash?
- Were they getting ready to give Snuka a major push here?
- Did they give Tommy a blood pack or do you think they did the old bloody condom thing that Corny talks about?
- I bet this match is going to be mat classic
- I do not think I have ever seen the Original Sheik before
- Did they bill him as Patrick Tanaka? Weird
- Good grief Sheik can barely move
- Thank goodness this was is over. This three way dance better be REALLY good or this is the worst show of 1994 so far
- Sheik and that fan nearly got into it. That would be like beating up someones grandfather
- I did not know Awesome was wrestling this early on....look at that mullet!!!
- OH MY GOD DID HE BREAK JT IN HALF?!
- Good grief Heyman attacked Sheri!
- The camera work has not been great tonight
- This is weird with no announcing thus far
- So this is a weird 3-Way. 15 minutes of Shane vs. Sabu and either the winner faces Funk or he comes out at 15 minutes and it becomes a 3 way. Very strange
- This match is partially saving the show but then they do a piledriver on the floor and the match will continue
- So the piledriver on the floor meant nothing. Great to know
- Honestly, this match has been very basic but okay. Nothing special. Maybe had I seen it at the time but my god it is too long and not believable.
- Now we have the Rotten's in the ring brawling. So overbooked and bells and whistles
Well the main event made it a watchable show. It was not great but it could be that this show does not stand up over time. It is hard not to watch with 2020 (and I do not mean hindsight) eyes. The show before this was bad. The Dreamer match was good and was showing his toughness. But beyond that match and the main event this show was not good. Again I know people look back at ECW fondly so maybe it is because this was not my childhood as well. If you enjoy a long brawl check this show out. If not well there are better ways to spend 2 hours.
