  • Just my opinion, but I think Jerry Lawler is one of by far the greatest heels of all time...he could get legit heat.

  • Another paul heyman booking masterstroke, turn your whole roster into jobronis except the 5 foot 5 midget.

  • tazz cant fight his way out of a shit hole

  • jerry lawlers a faggot.

  • I didnt ever see sabu in wwf qell utill wwe took over ecw in 2006 so why did he help the king?

  • Who the hell didn't like this video????

  • @mrharris23 biscoff

  • @mrharris23 simple people who dnt like ecw

  • ECW was not wrestling

  • @FcukCensoredSht

    Even though they did bring Strong-style, technical, lucha libre & innovative moves into wrestling that got used in other american promotions after they did it 1st?

  • @FcukCensoredSht You just proved you don't know what true wrestling is. Watch the following ECW matches: Al Snow vs Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero vs Dean Malenko, Mike Awesome vs Masato Tanaka, Jerry Lynn vs RVD , Jerry Lynn vs Lance Storm, 2 Cold Scorpio vs Chris Jericho. If you watch those and still say ECW was not wrestling, then you are not allowed to call yourself a wrestling fan because you don't like true wrestling. ECW wasn't JUST chair swinging, the chairs was just the icing on the cake.

  • @FcukCensoredSht watch eddie vs dean malenko and then try say it ain't wrestling

  • I want the old ecw back man..

  • lawler had to escape the bui;ding that night he almost got rolled

  • this was Jerry at his very best !!! now he`s got the heavy brakes put on because WWE needs to be all politically correct and mild.

  • Well where was he during the beatdown

  • How The Hell didnt The Gangstas Destroy Lawler Sabu and Van dam and where the hell was Taz???

  • being hella baked watching this is awesome LOL

  • its fun to watch with the snow falke button

  • it doesnt get much better than this

    

  • Totally f-ing amazing. What once made wrestling so awesome. No PG-13 crap here. Love how RVD took out New Jack too. Great move.

  • @conradsdad More like R-rated wrestling.

  • As an ECW fan this was pure epicness! Props to Lawler and later Cornette for working with them.

  • This beatdown > nexus beatdown

  • 1:10 RVD was in WWF???

  • @McHaleMega was signing in a few months i think... thats why Lawler was there.. WWF and ECW were working angles together...

  • Comment removed

  • did anyone noticed an ecw fan was showing his middle finger to tommy dreams at 0:28 ?

  • @cookiemonster01234 maybe it was meant for Raven since he was leaving ECW for WCW. Lol.

  • @IR305 lol!

  • LEGEND JERRY THE KING HALL OF FAMER LAWLER

  • 4:45...joker's laugh

  • sabu and rvd best damn team tag, those 2 were awesome as a unit.

  • at 1:36 Raven was like, "I'm gonna make a big save and....oh wait I'm going to WCW, later cunts" lol

    this was an epic wresting moment though

  • 1:23 OWNED

  • And this is why WWE cries itself to sleep at night.

  • hahaha that time when a lot of ecw fans would go crazy if they saw a WWF guy in their ring. lol great fans.

  • @EgyMax1987 Lawler was more than a WWF wrestler. Dude is a wrestling legend. Pretty much created the Memphis scene which is what ECW took a lot of influence from

  • @SomaLFM but it was so strange when in ECW ONS2006 ECW fans booed the shit outta him.

  • What's funny is WWE uses the "lights go off and someone shows up" thing now

  • @evilmm80 bad try, try hard next time cause actually WWF used it in 1993 in the Undertaker entrance before ECW.

  • Who'se holding Beulah? Is that Shah?

  • @DannyECDUB that's Louie Spicolli

  • "Kill the crap!" LOL!

  • Oh by the way, do you have the ECW commercial where Taz is advertising his T-shirt, then stops half way through the ad?

    He's talkin about the "official tap out t-shirt."

    He says "And you, too, can...no. You know what? I DONT wear this shirt! Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't." LOL

  • I remember this so vividly. loved it.

    This was actually the VERY FIRST TIME I saw ECW on television.

    I'd seen RVD on RAW with Lawler, but I couldn't actually get ECW television.

    Finally, I tried flipping the channel to it, and it WORKED.

    This was the VERY FIRST EPISODE I saw.

  • Puase at 1:58!

  • I miss the old ECW

  • whose the guy in the red hat?

  • @FTSKlauren That was Bill Alfonso, RVD and Sabu's manager.

  • @BillsFan272 Yea, whatever son, U know U just "Don't Question My Heart"!

  • ecw was only so good because it sounded good in a chant haha ecw ecw id choose wwf attitude era over ecw haha

  • RIP Louie Spicolli

    I can never forget that guy's face. He went waaaay too young.

  • What was the guys name on the whistle? I forgot about him lol this was back when lawler was fucking annoying now I'd rather hear lawler n JR on MNR then fuckin micheal Cole

  • @Bable012 Bill Alfonzo.

  • When wrestling looked painful!!

  • This was better than 90% percent of anything the NWO did.

  • Pussies be scared of Taz, haa

  • Lol ay Jerry saying Kill Him!

  • When things are done right, people remember.

  • Lawler: heh ECW AINT YOU GOT ANYONE TOUGHER!

    -Taz comes out-

    Lawler: OH SHIT THIS CAN CAN ACTUALLY FIGHT! IM GONNA FUCKING DIE! -runs out of th ring-

  • I wish wrestling was still exciting like it was back in the day.I missed alot of ECW i started watching it in 98.A friend of mine had some vhs tapes i was blown away.I got to go to one of the shows my dad took me there.When sandman came out he was slamming down his beer then turn to this kid who was sitting next to me and let him chug down a beer with him it was awesome.On top of that Korn and limp biscuit was playing right next door and you could here it the whole show.

  • TAZ HAD POWER! Clearing the room by walking out.

    Love Sandman's part. Sabu made him spill his beer, so he canned him like a bad kid.

  • Jerry Lawler was a hard heel to beat back in the day.

  • Lol who thought Lawler would get da crap beat out of him lol

  • Jerry Lawler,RVD, Sadu destroy ECW

  • Bill Simmons brough me here via Al Snow's entrance music.

  • 4:44 - 4:47 Best villian laugh ever

  • I wish they would push someone like they pushed taz, he was a beast and everyone was afraid of him and he was only 5'8 but he was a shoot fighter.

  • fuck jerry lawler I cant stand him

  • @flash3999 dont w\fuck whit jerry dude hes great and plus this is one of his best heel moments to

  • @NARATO0 yeah he was a good wrestler 30 years ago but hes annoying as hell to listen to on commentary and he's incredibly boring to watch wrestle now

  • if i was around a dude that wouldnt stop with the fucking whistle i would beat his ass daily

  • was lawler employed with the wwf at this time?

  • @mvaughnm86 yes wwf and ecw were working together at this point cause ecw was financially in trouble so wwf came in to bail them out and for the help most of 1997 there was a ecw invasion storyline going on in wwf and in ecw there was a jerry lawler invasion and rvd and sabu jumped ship to lawlers side during the time

  • @mvaughnm86

    yes

  • This is wrestling.

  • i was waiting for the undertaker to be in the ring when the lights turned on ha got my hopes up

  • ice cubes music

  • Nothing short of amazing.

  • A Classic Moment in ECW!!!!..... Jerry is too funny but you better run Jerry when Taz get there.... lol..lol...

  • The King best heel promo...No! The best heel promo in wrestling history!!

  • Embarrsing, MMA rules all. Fuck pro wrestling

  • @BjIann Their two different things stupid, why do all you idiots keep comparing staged fights (like in the movies) to real fights?

  • @BjIann shut the fuck up

  • JR is Horse Shit

  • "Look at this slut".. hahaha love you Jerry

  • "Look at that slut".. hahaha love you Jerry

  • "This bingo hall oughta be built out of toilet paper. Because there's nothing in it but SHIT" XD

  • lights went out i thought we were about to see the undertaker -_-

  • 0:25 look at the fan flipping off Dreamer! lol

  • where the fuck was balls mahoney and mikey whipwreck?

  • 7:01 that guys skull must be hollow.

  • i like it when billy bob blows his whistle

  • This is hard

  • I was 14 when this happened and I remember staying up till 1AM to watch this and going nuts in my parents living room not trying to wake them up. This is when wrestling really was unpredictable.

  • We want M0:00E EC fucking W lol !!!

  • ECF'NW....is there anyone that had the ability to keep you locked in like they did?Week after week, they delivered...in spades...your mouth was constantly watering for next week...you didn't want the next show, you needed it.ECW made Ted and Vince dig deeper...they riddled the roster..out of pure fear.Simply put, there was never a better show in town.The ECW boys...they went at it like every show could be their last.So sad that they were slowly rubbed out...and you can blame Paul,he should be.

  • @blackcottoncandycane ..he got way ahead of himself...but these fans, and fans, where ever ECW surfaced...they...we...loved our "second class" organization...and we loved the people who bled for us...anyway...

    I wish ECW was still going...and WCW....because wrestling monopolized by Vincent K. Junior...sucks mammoth dick.

  • Good lord; Beulah was freakin hot

  • whats teh storyline?

  • I miss Louie Spicolli

  • Was'nt sabu and rvd always with original ecw?

  • RVD and Sabu cleanin house

  • GOD, I miss this...

  • GOD, I miss this...

  • wasnt this when lawler made dreamer piss blood?

  • @Obelisk2290 if this was in memphis then yes lawler said in his book that he felt really bad about that

  • @Obelisk2290 Yeah he hit him in the nuts with a kendo stick and ruptured his testicle.

  • ECW=Extremely crappy wrestling.

  • @3XTR3M3R4T3D123

    Fail.

  • I just watched this three times. Every time the lights come up and Jerry is standing there, I flip out. Wrestling will NEVER be this good ever again. EC fucking W FOREVER.

  • sandman is a generic stone cold

  • @putzbasterd d sandman had his beer drinking gimmick before austin became austin 316

  • RVD and Sabu had such great in-ring chemistry and King is funny as hell. but DAMN was Tazz a badass

  • KILL THE CRAP LOL

  • Wouldn't you agree heel heat is a definite 10/10 here?

  • Was that Hulk Hogan at 3:50 ?

  • @devondev95 Shane Douglas

  • This was the real ECW, IMO. Not the watered down version that Mr. McMahon peddled to the fans. And Jerry Lawler, what more can be said?

  • @mkl62 Jerry truly is the King of Pro-Wrestling! Vince has fucked up his legacy for too long.

  • @mkl62 YEAH I GOT THE RISE AND FALL OF ECW DVD TOMMY SAID WHEN JERRY HIT HIM IN THE NUTS IT KNOCKED HIM OUT AND WHEN HE GOT HIT IN THE FACE IN WOKE HIM UP AT THE HOSPITAL HE LOST ALOT OF BLOOD FROM HIS BALLS AND HAD SOME TYPE OF SURGERY AND NOBODY KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THE ATTACK IT WASNT PLANED

  • taz was john cena of wwe except taz can wrestle

  • @EatMyShitYumy Do you understand what you have said?

  • @EatMyShitYumy Except Taz was fuckin' awesome!

  • Comment removed

  • WOW!!! Its amazing how Rob Van Dam & Sabu wiped out the entire rosters by themselves!!!!....that is until TAZ came out!!

  • they dont want the franchise to go down there he will ruin em all 

  • LOL at 0:28 a guy in the crowd gives something to Tommy

  • @ECWoriginal55 lol yh

  • WWF owns ECW. ECW was the little step brother who could never beat older brothers ass (older brother was WWF)

  • Beulah was SMOKING hot!!

  • 4:37 RVD flying kick the camera man !!!! LOLLLLL rvd is high!!!

  • I miss ECW with all that I am,It refreshedf me as a wrestling fan,being from Texas,I didnt get a chance to see a whole lot of ECW before like this time period ,1996-1997.I was hooked,I had heard for 3 years before,ABout this lil guy with bad attitude,thats how the wrestling mags referred to ECW,at least the ones I bought did,Jerry Lawler is a natural heel, Being wasted in WWE,he gets a match at mania,and its against Michael cole,Fuck wrestling is in the shitter

  • @BorderCityBandit majorly agree, him being in the business for years and do you honestly think he wanted to lose to that joker definitely in the shitter and already through the sewer system

  • @BorderCityBandit Poor Jerry. Vince fucked him with no Vaseline. Vince=FAG!

  • E C W was set up to fail from the beginning it was a miracle it lasted that long. Long live E ! C ! F'N ! W !

  • Comment removed

  • I bet the fans in the arena that night thought Lawler was going to get killed when they heard New Jacks theme start playing.

  • imagine how great ecw would have been if they had more money

  • Say what you want to say about Lawler, he is the only guy from wwf who was actually tough enough to set foot in ECW. Took out most of ECWs best including the gangstas.

  • @superfan931 he should've known never to fuck with ecw and the gangstas because tazz kicked his ass in 2006

  • @maxassasin911 this is true, but you got to give the guy credit though, its not like any other wwe superstar would try to do something like that. Also i dont understand how a group such as the gangstas would get beat down by just 2 guys.

  • @superfan931 don't forget the Dudley Boyz & the Eliminators beat them

  • @superfan931 You do realize wrestling is not real? LOL The amount of tard in your comments is quite hilarious.

  • @capdatasstapdatass honestly I could care less wether it is real or not.

  • And FYI, the chant at 5:30 is still amongst the most passionate and full on bloodthirsty of all time.

  • Odd how 1000 people at most crammed into a bingo hall can generate 100 times the noise and crowd heat of the 15k that they pack into the funeral parlors they call WWE events these days. Still about the closest there has ever been to a real life full on riot at an event.

  • @jamiesjewels1 in my opinion wrestling the last 7 years or so dont even count to me as history it is just enterainment and something wrestling fans watch because of how it once was.

  • @TheShootTruth10 Yeah.

  • i bet wwe alwaysed own ecw but no one knew about it

  • why is rvd wearing a raw t shirt 

  • @LLE08071635 RVD's gimmick was that he was too good for the small time ECW and should be competing for the larger WWF hence why he was aligned with Lawler who was supposed to be helping him get into the WWF.

  • @StephenAlexWalker  thanks m8

  • damn, look at beulah

  • Lawler was great.. he carried memphis for years as a face and he is just awesome as a heel

  • Never seen The Gangstaz ever shut down that fast.

  • This was just pure chaos and unpredictability. A lost art form in pro wrestling these days.

  • @MWCfan78 truth

  • No one hated ECW more than Jerry Lawler.

  • Extremely crap wrestling

  • This is why we call him The King

  • @blazehigherboiii that was my dude..

  • I agree with the Guy at 0:31 lol.

  • 4:24 look at the dude with the whistle dancing XD

  • 3:49 hulk hogan?

  • @OMFGEPICFACE123 Hogan wasnt in WWE during 1997. He was with WCW. Only WWE guys invaded ECW..And hogan wasnt with WWE at the time. He went to WCW in 1994. Didnt come back to the WWE until 2002. Retired in 2006...Then made his Return to TNA..in 2010

  • @B4LLSACKS I know. I was being stupid.

  • @OMFGEPICFACE123 Alright. well Just Clearing things up in case anybody else in here really thinks it was hulk.

  • This will probably be the only Louis Spiccolli reference that will be made, but what a lucky dude to hold down Beulah for all that time that he did!!! Probably the only piece of hot ass he'll ever get!!!! lmao

  • "KILL THE CRAP!"
