ECW Path Of Destruction
------
This is kinda a 'best of' video, so the matches arnt in any particuler order or anything.
Match One - ECW TV Title match - Chris Jericho VS 2 Cold Scorpio VS Pitbull #2 VS Shane Douglas
Four way elimination, ECW style. A brilliant match, with some nice spots such as 2 Cold Scorpio (Basicly Booker T) dropkicking Jericho halfway though a Lionsault. The match goes on for about 40 minutes, which makes a change after WWF 20 minute main events. The match has tables, chairs, chains, a heel turn, and a women in her underwear. Probably the best 4 way I've ever seen.
*****
Match Two - ECW TV Title match - Rob Van Dam VS Ban Ban Bigelow (Male Giggalo).
Bam Bam is some big fat guy. I'm sure everyone knows who RVD is by now. RVD has two massive spots in this one, jumping a very, very long way. Sabu puts in an apperance, as do tables and chairs. Bam Bam is good for a big guy.
****
2/3 Falls Match - Eddie Guerrero VS Dean Malenko
This is these guys very last ECW match. Superb techniqual wrestling, didnt know Eddie was capable of it. A few too many rest breaks. The commentery on this one was really good - sold the Texas Cloverleaf really well. After the match Malenko actually gets on the mike! Emotional speech there, saying that Malenko is an ECW fan and stuff. Good sendoff for the two.
****
Psicosis VS Rey Mysterio Jr.
AHHH! They both have masks on! I hate masks, they remind me of Kane. Ah well. Thats the luchador style I guess. Aside from this, sweet match, lots of high flying, and lots of strange moves.
****
Stairway To Hell - Sabu VS Sandman
Sabu has massive scars all over his body. I expect he got more from this one. Stairway to Hell, I have discovered, involves a ladder in the centre of the ring that leads to a coil of barbed wire hanging above the ring. This is almost as good as TLC 1, but has a lot of blood. Some of the spots made me cringe - Baseball slide in the corner, with Barbed Wire and Two chairs. You could see the blood making a pool. Sabu breaks his Jaw in this match, but still finishes. Gotta give him respect for that.
A real brutal match. I can see why these two have such a good reputation.
*****
TaiPai death match - Axel Rotton VS Ian Rotton
The poorest match on the tape. Brutal, loads of blood, but i I wanted to watch people hit each other with broken glass I would have gone and stood outside my local pub. Still, better than the rubbush WWF throws at me.
**
Jerry Lynn (Otherwise know as God) VS Super Crazy (Otherwise know as Spanish God) VS Tajiri (Otherwise know as Japanese God)
3 way elimination. This is only matched by TLC 1 and Jericho VS HHH. The best lightheavyweight action I have ever seen, and possibly will ever see. Insane 20 foot moonsault by Super Crazy. Tajiri hits a wicked Turantula.
I'm not gonna say any more, coz I'd spoil it for you. You have to see it.
*****
Overall, as my first ECW tape, I am impressed. Only one dud match, as opposed to the 4 or 5 duds the WWF serves up every PPV.
Overall rating: *****

I got these from www.strongstyletapes.com. £8 this one cost me. If you do order from there, make sure you say that 'Ross McIntosh' recommended it to you. That way I get £5 off my next order. Thankyou people, and goodnight.
