ECW Killed wrestling... these Idiots wouldn't know REAL wrestling.... no offense..... ECW was Just... no.

[tripdefect87]

Hahahahahahahahaha, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...........­..

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you're a fucking dumbass cunt for thinking that ECW killed pro wrestling, if ECW hadn't be created by Paul Heyman, Wrestling would have been dead anyway and we still would have to put with that shitacular WCW

[jaws5204]

i agree wwe ruined it self just like TNA...WWE is for kids now  and TNA it trying to be WWE

[Cyrus4488]

yeah kicking the boss's head is for kids. HBK being in financial crisis is for kids. Matt Hardy hittin Jeff is for kids..... Yeah.. it REALLY is for kids....

[eddypimp]

wait a minute did anyone catch that?! this guy around 21:51 says TNA has the best potential? Hahaha what a joke... you could've made that case back in 04-06 but since then no way. The moment they put all the belts on Kurt Angle is what ruined their credability.

[tamourmehmood1]

no giving the titlle to edge then straight after ten joe and sting had lengthy rains as champs bettertay with the times it got so please stttles he lost two in the next ppv the tikurt won tho jeff hardy cos hhh didnt want to lose to him hurt the wwe credibility after

[joefosh]

both valid points. i definitely agree tna has the best potential though. putting the belt on kurt did devalue the X division belt to an extent, as that was where TNAs originality came from, the belt went from being worn from top bill superstars such as AJ, Joe and Kurt himself, and i dont think it has fully recovered since. but at the same time TNAs roster is absolutely brimming with talent and hasnt got the shutdown mentality of WWEs way of working one style, so i agree tna has better potential

[Criminology187]

lol at this loser thinking ECW and internet shooters killed pro wrestling.

what a fucking retard

[inyourhouse95]

your full of shit you faggot

[Smokey137]

You guys are fuckin sheep fuck PWR wrestling was dead a fuckin long time ago when WWF faced the alliance. And Youtube shooter's help increase the popularity and are voice's to demand what we want to fucking see you idiots.

[joefosh]

take a chill pill, and then, go fuck yourself. shooting is gonna happen, if it actually makes an impact then thats a good thing. if the wrestling writers that make the stories listened to critic's voices, then theyd get rid of the idiot that cant wrestle and theyd push the guy that the fans cheer for. stop being such a dick and remember youtube posters and viewers watch what the fuck they want and dont need pricks like you giving them shit for it.

[ratnick]

WoW, I can't believe how dumb that guy is. He thinks "Youtube Shooters" killed wrestling!

BetweenTheRopes own these losers!!!!!!

[eldogg4life]

mark cuban does not own the palms casino... the maloof brothers own it and they own the sacramento kings as well...

great show!!!!

[ryansullivan626]

at around the 15:00 mark the guy said he thoght ecw killed wrestling, i disagree i think if ecw would have remained the only promotion that did the things ecw did, and no one else copied them wrestling would have been better today. I feel wwf and wcw copying ecw is what killed wrestling because they made everything to "30 chair shots'ish" and made that type commercial. If they would have left it "semi underground" and strictly with ecw, things would have been better. Ripping off isnt original.

[Juonouchithepunk]

I think that's what the guy was trying to say

[wherethepowerlies]

Awesome

[ecwforeverhardcore01]

Oh c'mon you guys really don't believe Kurt left. You all know very well WWE fired Kurt, becuase they didn't want another Guerrero.

[LynxShadow]

lmao@"We call nathan the San Francisco Treat". That was funny.

But yeah, I would have to disagree with Frank saying ECW ruined wrestling. If anything they made it better by bringing the "realism" to Professional Wrestling.

You got to remember that there are Wrestling schools. And many things get taught in those schools. One of which is how to take a chair shot. So if they're trained to take a chairshot, why not be trained to take 19 more? continued...

[LynxShadow]

I've seen Wrestling in the 80s and Frank was right about how a Wrestler would pick up a chair and they would go wild even though he didn't even use it yet. But ECW fans not only got fans to do that but also get them wilder by using the chair repeatedly. I mean, who actually boos when someone gets cracked with a chair? Maybe needy fans but other than that, everyone is satisfied. Finally, that boeman guy made a lot of sense saying that fans need to appreciate wrestling for what it is.

[BigDaddy0207]

Good Show

[measuringstick]

ecw went over the top with the hardcore matches but they were still good to watch plus it was fresh a lot of the stuff they did wasnt seen back then, also unlike today every match wasn't won by a finishing move or a dq. plus i agree with the what you said about wrestling changes every 10 years or so i started watching wrestling in the late 80's early 90's and wrestling did change a lot in the attitude era and changed again in 2000 but it hasnt really changed since 2002, its time for a change.

[tylerwwe]

wow

[OTKP]

LOL Meathead is funny

but damn wrestling fans is fucking weird, when you do what they want they complain that the show is "too predictable" when you don't do what they want they still complain, they ask for a guy to be pushed then when he gets his push they are still not happy

great show though guys

[chrismcallister2006]
