[MrShibaker44]

CRAZY!! Taz woulda NEVER needed ravens help to beat the king in ecw...

[TheSAMEA]

Raven is a hardcore GOD

[vtown187yahoocom]

jerry lalwer u suck.quote to raven never more

[denyfate]

@vtown187yahoocom quoth the raven, its quoth.

[Giroro991]

man I miss this what the hell happen to wwf

[Xagui012]

raven and tazz should have gotten bigger pushes,like having a run with the ic title or even winning the tag titles together

[MrStevenLogan]

that was extreme

[RJARIO]

Holy shit! Its like TNA VS WWE RIGHT HERE!

[radgainesmaster]

Jim ross is such a weenie now days...he was badass back in the 80s lol

[shawnkempdunkz]

this haggard ass dude just came out of nowhere and kicked him in the nuts??

How is that bullshit allowed to go down??

[homerguy4444]

why was taz not pushed, was this when his injuries mounted up on him?

[MrLos8]

2:24 damn JR you badass lol

[qwer5722]

jerry still look the same today 0.o

[alex9033]

Tazz is one of the only people I can think of who can no-sell two consecutive piledrivers and then delay-sell a third without it looking stupid.

[PMiD6c7b01a0]

20 farmer hates Ravens !!

[MrHBNTG]

YEAH HEY VINCE YOUR BUDDY JOHN CANT GET THAT REACTION!

[bbok12]

that was one of the loudest crowd feedbacks to raven i've seen in wwe (/wwf).

[JobberBud]

Way to no-sell a classic move, Tazz. Lame.

[MrHBNTG]

@JobberBud SEEMS TO ME THAT U KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT SELLING AND NOTHING ABOUT PLANNING..

[JobberBud]

@MrHBNTG I'm inclined to agree with you. But I do know how to make sure the caps-lock button is not on before I type.

[MrHBNTG]

@JobberBud I PLANNED to have the caps lock button on and i DO NOT KNOW WHY ITS BAD TO HAVE IT.....

[JobberBud]

@MrHBNTG Heeheehee! =)

[C3LTZO]

The crowd standing up still gives me goosebumps!

[teheezzey]

this tazz vs john cena, cena would die

[judasbarronx]

@teheezzey damn right. Most of the old ecw guys woulda killed Cena.

[AXAGUS]

Holy shit Raven got an awesome pop

[DojoEDM]

wasn't this supposed to be a strap match???

[dragon1009]

@DojoEDM it is it is but if you made someone give up it counts, but to me it actually defeats the purpose of making the damn match

[OriginalMalcolmPoole]

i really miss RAVEN!

[BradleyVolk3]

Holy FUCKING POP!!!! Leave to PIttsburgh.



[MrAcefag]

Tazz is awesome

[tripdefect87]

They should have done a Dogcollar match

[bigdaddydudely2002]

I want raven's shirt

[nwofolife]

Don't you just miss pops like that! We don't have crowd pops like this anymore.

[TheMysticWolfAura]

WWE vs TNA. War of the commentators!

[krazygreen]

Yapapiya!!!

[RobbdoggV2]

Announcer vs Announcer

[sortman94]

lance storm debuted in wwf when they were in canada, here raven debuts in pittsburgh. writers were so smart and found the places the guys would get the loudest pops

[MrColtini]

@sortman94 That was in Calgary at a Raw. I was at that Raw and Lance Storm walked right past me through the crowd. Everyone was going nuts.

[sortman94]

@MrColtini That must have been amazing to be at

[SamaraiMonster]

Ravens Pop was like the same pop when he came back to ECW

Amazing

[oscarlindh1997]

Tazz is the worst seller ever

[NotIkeman]

@oscarlindh1997 Taz's career was based on no-selling.

[NotIkeman]

Raven got a major pop here. Shame that both he and Tazz were buried and became jobbers.

[SamaraiMonster]

@NotIkeman not their fault... well... Taz buried himself askin for a World Title Push

and Raven did not care as long as they let him wrestle

[NotIkeman]

@SamaraiMonster That doesn't mean both couldn't have been utilized better.

[jme915]

raven is a collest wrestler ever

[zach4pussies]

@CoasterBeach So are you!

[LastoftheGeeks]

''King, that Piledriver it won't work. Oh, maybe I'm wrong.''

[infernalone666]

for a guy who calls himself 'the king', he certainly is a bit of a failure

[1234beberfever]

Tazz was a badass

[LegendKiller21100]

MsSkylar11 shut up jerry lawler can nothing!!!

[TheSuperTrousers]

@LegendKiller21100 like ur mum in bed. If Jerry Lawler can do "nothing", then why the fuck is he a Hall of Famer?

[LegendKiller21100]

I Hate Jerry Lawler he is a loser!!!

[MsSkylar11]

@LegendKiller21100 your a loser fag

[the1jimmydylan]

I was there that night! great night of action! was 16 then....and now a referee in the business. if you don't believe me, just click on my channel button and see for yourself! enjoy! miss taz & raven in the ring!

[alpha2clan]

taz gonna beat him up

[CoryTheRaven]

Gawd, I love watching Lawler get the shit kicked out of him. I hate that guy.

[zach4pussies]

@CoryTheRaven I hate you bitch!

[chshaw87]

''Raven's not on this roster..." ludicrous even by 2000's standards!

[316cenasucks]

You'll never hear a pop like this anymore. in Raven's case, the Philly Fans already knew him back from his ECW Days.

[Antrizzle2009]

Wow did you hear that crowd starting at 5:55? Philly was the PERFECT place for Raven's debut. This wouldn't have nearly got the same reaction had it been in the south or out west somewhere.

[Thecrazythingswesee]

whats the match where Jerry The King lawler and tazz fight and then JR smashed a glass candy jar over tazz's head?

[BlackSabbathory]

@Thecrazythingswesee That was at SummerSlam a month prior.

[Thecrazythingswesee]

@BlackSabbathory thank you!!! :)

[HerdaViewTube]

@Thecrazythingswesee summerslam 2000

[Thecrazythingswesee]

@HerdaViewTube thank you :)

[8theicon]

choke the hel out of him XD jr is epic

[DanBruett82]

He wins a strap match by submission...

[BlackSabbathory]

Misused Tazz so badly.

[fourpetersfakeandgay]

why dont you shut up and get in the ring??!!!

[canadianbeeph]

E C DUB

[crowRKO1990]

JR: the bully from....

ummm Jim I don't see Mark Lamonaco a.k.a Buh Buh Ray Dudley, Bubba Ray Dudley, Brother Ray, Bully Ray any where near this match.

And if you ask anyone whoes worked with Ray they will tell you that he is the worst basckstage bully there is in the business

[airaoft4life]

its taz not tazz

[DominicRCWC]

@airaoft4life it is both.

[ivorydome]

@airaoft4life It's Tazz. lol

[countbloodula]

Too bad HBK wasnt woman enough to face TAZ,otherwise shawn would be exposed as just another fraud

[curtman1981]

Actually WWE sucked from 1994 until around end of 1996 when they lost flair they didnt know where to go, it wasnt until Austin, Bret and Shawn were featured heavily and the New Generation died and the Attitude Era Began, watch ECW and WCW from early 90s and tell me differently if ur a wrestling fan and not just a WWF/E fan than u can see and respect that....peace remember this feud with fond memories, King/Tazz/J.R. was great stuff....

[MrMcGibletts022]

@curtman1981 WHAT ?! 1994 had one of the most epic feuds/storyline of all time.

Bret Hart vs Owen Hart.

[Antrizzle2009]

@curtman1981 I agree but losing Flair had nothing to do with it. Vince was more than happy to see Flair go. He sucked during that run save for RR '92 and wasn't drawing shit.

[maple856]

what the hec is wrong with that STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!! TAZZ

[navieedful]

@ALUCARDuae jerry was a commentator even back then!!

[ALUCARDuae]

and both of them are now commentators

lol

[TheSportysporty]

Hey , check my vids!! I upload Raw is War and Smackdown episodes of 2000!! If you like it , subscrie ;)

[violenceteacher6669]

haha tazz vs JR

[richardthewolf111]

tazz sucks dicks

[razvyboss69]

@richardthewolf111 you suck

[lolligelol2000]

JR and Lawler FTW !!

[kevinhardy]

good match

[halofan545]

jerry the king lawler FTW he`s going against the miz at wrestlemania 27 for the wwe championship cause jerry won the raw royal rumble

[bushregmike]

best shape of Tazz' life

[TheKercy13]

From this point his debut was raw as hell but the wwe didnt use raven right he should hyave been a top contender at least a intercontinental title or a world title match thumbs up if you agree

[miamimagicians]

Didn't they FIRE BRYAN DANIEL FOR CHOKING SOMEONE WITH A TIE?

[PhilipEbanks]

@miamimagicians: Yeah, but that was because the show was TV-14 back then and TV-PG when Danielson did it, hence why he was fired.

[nachozman7]

@PhilipEbanks The whole Danielson thing was a work....

[PhilipEbanks]

@nachozman7: I thought it was as well, but his release was legit.

[TheJojoso]

@miamimagicians i think its something to do with pg era

[TheBigredteddybear]

lol joey the king lawler 0:24

[krazygreen]

The sad thing is, WCW did more for Raven then the WWF ever did...Johnny Polo.

[krazygreen]

This strap match >>>Yappepiya strap match between Hogan and Flair that ended in a 3 count and then the touching of the turnbuckles, lol.

[TheMattastrophe]

comentry back in them days was awesome :D god i miss jr and lawler 2gether D: ):

[louieah12]

@AndrewsOpinion15 at least Lawler is better than your kandy ass

[Jonoridge]

WWE murdered Tazz, he was so amazing in ECW

[dmschwartz]

If you see in the background when Raven does his Jesus-like pose after hitting the Even Flow DDT that there's a kid doing the same pose. A KID. A fucking KID.

Note to WWE: Kids already watched your show when you didn't have to dumb it down.

[AndrewsOpinion15]

taz is so much better then that candy ass lawler !!!

[darkninja2188]

Why don't you shutup and get in the ring?

[stoudbaker]

tazz as a announcer ha a rating of 90 as a announcer on svr2010

[KidChaos878]

Taz is the Stone Cold of ECW.

[devlin0497]

damn tazz is such a bad ass

[MrCoolSlayer]

in tna Tazz is now a ASS KISSER, because he's scared of getting an ass whooping for FORTUNE and IMMORTAL!!!!!

[Darazz]

When a WCW or ECW star appeared in WWF, the pop blows the roof.

[trivrock2k6]

Why dont you shut up and get in the ring, your wrestling king not me, YOUR IN A STRAP MATCH YOU IDIOT! lmao at the last line

[hodgey1994]

Raven is god. Yeah he's sorta making a joke of himself now in TNA but ECW, WWF and original TNA run he was a great character.

[SRPC21]

@hodgey1994 Didn't like it when the wwf started to make him wear a skirt though and lose ever single match in the process

[GANLEYBRAND]

i loved how Taz no sold those two piledrivers from King

[TheMartinstifler]

he is in SVR 2011 just like NPC :p

[LegoRocks89]

I wish He was in the SVR 2011

[Starsnypa]

Raven was sooo good. that gimmick was jus right 4 him espically in wcw

[TheJacklenut]

LOL AT 5:05 EPIC FALL

[ZRtheHedgehog77]

@TheJacklenut Think of that part as a Ric Flare moment.

[Macikro]

@ZRtheHedgehog77 it's Ric Flair, to correct it.

[RiseToTheBottom]

What a Jerk

[superrobz]

Listen to that pop for Raven! These kids of today dont have shit on these fans

[Cyberpit2000]

He's a great wrestler but Taz looked a lot bigger on the lucky charms box - haha Classic King !!

[1NINE52]

The following is for the best commentator championahip!!!!!

[qwejijq]

raven with a raven affect raven with a raven affect lol

[AngealeGibson]

1990 - 2005. Best debuts ever. Best wrestlers ever. Best storylines ever. Best WWF/E ever.

[kanenkitten]

@AngealeGibson: Well I think that 2006 had a few good storylines too.

[Goldberg2630]

ladies and gents, That! is how you make a debut!

[HardyBoyFan101]

Good god! Idc who you are, 2:51 has gotta hurt like a son a of bitch.

[MrTreyshawn22]

RAVEN MA NIGGA!!!!!!!

[WillNotDie23]

[AmErWwF]

@MyDavey01

[wolf11]

Why they never made a Taz dvd is beyond me he has so many fantastic promos and matches in ECW that I am sure any fan would be it I know I would.

[TheHeelHook]

in SUCCESSION!!! cough (hulk hogan)

[MrColdsnap]

3 plidrivers take tazz out for 3-10 seconds:D

[Zeeboe]

I am a big Jerry Lawler fan and I enjoyed his feud with Tazz and loved seeing the King whip Tazz's ECW ass. Fuck ECW! USWA 4 life. :-)

[BigCrusher96]

"Go king! Choke the hell out him!" ROFL

[dontsuck12]

Beat me if you can...

Survive if I let you...

^^THOSE WORDS MADE TAZ!^^

[rockstribute]

[DRIP281GRAFFITIKING]

Your in a strap match you idiot

[TheEbhagzzz]

LOL at JR being one sided

[dlmoney11]

why dont u shut up and get in the ring

[TotalPackage8]

Jerry The King and JR made the best dou in commentating

[grabmygoobers]

@TotalPackage8 absolutely.

[vicmacke]

get em king choke the hell out of him! jim ross lol

[vinix23]

2:43 AAAAWWWHH!!!!!

what a cute moment

[VitaminxJR]

Raven was THE guy every company has dropped the ball on.

One of the greatest characters and a truly amazing wrestling mind.

Hell, TNA could use him right now to fix some of the awful booking and storylines. If one man can come up with some truly great material, it would be Raven.

[carloled10]

tazz was the man

[Gotenksdbz123]

ur in a strap match u idiot

*king chokes tazz*

get em' king

choke the hell outta him

hahaha u gotta luv JR...the best commentator everrrr

[Mysterio552]

tazz had muscles :O

[MasterAdam100]

It's a shame how someone like Tazz was booked to look weak against Lawler.

[ThatDevilsBlue]

raven is one of my top 3 favorite wrestlers...haha damn did you hear that crowd when raven got in there!

[SebastianSlasherMP]

Glad that the King got a great POP, but it's sad that most of the crowd doesn't know about how much of a legend he really is, USWA days ETC...

[warmaker911]

raven is a hardcore wrestler........he has a lot of knowledge about wrestling and commitment but he's definitely not in the top 10 as a talent

[battlefields2mine]

He should be in Hall of Frame

[bluethunder25]

Didn't know this match took place at Unforgiven 2000.

[andyk6925]

@TheBananaBuddy lol right? and they were chanting ecdub towards the end too

[gibblesbits]

that punch at 1:51 looked and sounded real as hell. lol

[jaroman4]

This shits for little kids.

Tazz is the only wrestler I actually respect.

[hardcoreocealot]

raven is a genious really the guy has a really high i.q

[tharaven666]

Incase some of Raven fans are too young too remember, I do believe he was originally in the WWF as Scotty Flamingo. Then he went to ECW and made a name for himself. He left ECW and went to WCW only to return to ECW for a while then during the cross promotion of WWF/E and ECW eventually Raven was part of WWF. I never thought young scotty flamingo would become who he is today.

[FerretJohn]

@tharaven666 Raven was originally known as Scotty the Body in Memphis and here in the Pacific Northwest, Scott Anthony in Global Wrestling in Texas, Scotty Flamingo in WCW when he was the NWA Lt Heavywheight Champion, his first WWE run was a Johnny Polo managing the Quebecers (suffered a bad ankle injury I believe and couldn't wrestle) then moving to ECW as Raven (switching to a ground game because of his ankle).

[motyomeid]

im hate raven

[NBAfuture2]

how do the fans know raven when it's his debut

[CoOp2017]

@NBAfuture2 he was in WCW and ECW

[NeverwinterKnight77]

Does anybody have the footage from the Smackdown where Tazz hits King over the head with a glass pitcher?

[TnaWWEFan4ever]

hey how jim ross understood raven?It was his debut!

[DolchOfHate]

Taz > The King

enough said

[saulski90]

extremely crapy wrestling lol king

[BigGreen486]

Jerry Lawler + Jim Ross= :D

[InFlamesFan15]

Raven is amazing! Raven Effect is one of the moment remembered Finishers of all time! As is Raven one of the most remembered WWF Wrestlers of all time!
