Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-02-01 ECW

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-04-03, we are going back to the beginning of February 1994 to check out the next edition of ECW TV.  Will we follow up on Paul Diamond and the devastating spiked piledriver?  Lets find out!

• Oh right, the Shiek is coming in to fight with Pat Tanaka...because...um....why not
• Now we know the first concussion that Mikey got, that first chair shot from the Taskmaster
• A tag in an ECW tag match?  Weird
• Did anyone take a better ass-kicking than Mikey?  Maybe the Mulkey Brothers
• Uggg, I hate those front row morons at the ECW Arena
• It is weird to see this good looking version of Tommy Dreamer.  I am used to the 1998+ version, more hardcore and beat up version
• Really nice Powerslam by Tommy!
• I love the GIANT headset that Joey is wearing.  
• Could Johnny wear those trunks any higher!
• What about the match that is happening?  Did I miss the pin?
• Look at Jason's horrible haircut
• Jason is annoying, and not in a good wrestling kind of way.  Very much in a I want to change the channel way
• This version of the Public Enemy is not that entertaining

Once again another blah show in my opinion.  The matches are not good typically and the interviews are not either.  I get that at the time they were very different than WCW or WWF but that does not mean good.  Maybe I am wrong but so far ECW has been my least favourite shows of 1994

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-18 ECW

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever you found this entry.  Today, 2020-02-08 I am checking out the 1994-01-18 ECW show.  I have no clue what is going on in ECW at this point as I did not follow ECW till near the end.  So lets go to the ring and find out what is going on!

• How amazing was Sherri, both in talent and looks
• It is weird they have Hawk in their promo/intro and WCW is using him to promote their merchandise catalogue
• A special 90-minute episode?  Nice
• Terry Funk is fantastic.  Think about it he shows up in SMW, ECW and WCW in 1994.  How great is that!
• I like that Terry is being positive about Shane, not yelling and screaming how he is going to beat him up.  Very real sports interview back in the day
• I would tweet a picture to Taz of him back in the day but I do not want him to come beat me up!
• Love Dreamers suspenders!
• Look at that young white meat babyface in Dreamer.  What happened to you Tommy?  Oh right ECW
• Those ropes look really loose
• Why is Sullivan not in the HOF?
• Even back when it was Eastern Championship Wrestling there were no rules?  THAT WAS A LOW BLOW!
• It is weird to see Nancy at ringside.  It will be weirder when I get to shows with Benoit on it I think
• I wonder what Taz thinks when he sees Tazmaniac matches
• Nice to see some wrestling on ECW as when I was watching it was more brawling
• It is weird that Tanaka is a babyface
• Johnny deserves this, he blew it.  Sullivan and Taz would not lose!
• Look at that headset!
• Sexiest Man on Earth?  Really?  That is like me saying I am the fittest man on Earth
• Look at Jason's mullet!  AWESOME!
• Old School Sandman in trunks is weird!
• Good grief this segment is taking forever and it horrible!
• Seriously whoever thought having Jason do voiceovers should be caned by the Sandman or given chair shots by Balls Mahoney!
• I did not know Eastern Championship Wrestling had a wrestling school
• Two of the best in 1994
• Lost in this match, a good old school match that you just watch and enjoy!
• Never wanted to be a ref so much in my life right now
• I miss Paul on commentary.  The fact that WWE is not using him is sad
• Slow count by the ref here near the end, is he blown up?
• Wait...did Shane just win?  
• A second continuation?  Typical ECW Overbooking
• Are we going to see a time limit draw?  4 minutes left
• Sherri going right after Axl and he just stopped her!  GOOD GOD WHAT A HORRIBLE PERSON!

A good show minus the Jason segment.  They should have aired one of the match highlighted in that segment with Jason on commentary instead of what seeming took forever.  The main event was an excellent match and I lost track of how good it was.  If you like Terry Funk check this match out.  Until next time....Abysinia!
