I did a little review of that Tajiri vs Crazy ‘Death Match’ earlier in this thread. I loved their whole series of matches whether it was in singles, tags or 3 ways with a Guido or Lynn thrown into the mix. They were great together and I thought that ‘Mexican Death Match’ was probably the best of their rivalry. This was my favourite bit, what a bastard…

This. This match is absolutely delightful. Tajiri is the most vicious little prick in this match. The spot where he just hoofs chairs into the crowd not giving a toss is marvellous.

From what I can remember Tajiri, Whipwreck and Sinister Minister were also good fun while it lasted.

There was still some really good stuff going on in ECW even if it was falling apart behind the scenes.

There was. Some. But there was also Danny Doring & Roadkill as tag team champions, Chilly Willy, far too much Baldies, turning Jerry Lynn heel and Justin Credible and Steve Corino getting runs on top. The gulf in quality between how they started 2000 and how they left it was ridiculous.

This thread's still alive?

Saw this just now retweeted by our own Scorchy, so do we think Warrior could take Taz in a shoot? I think the ECW crowd would have shat all over him, unlike when they popped for Sid like he was a god.

Proper interesting one because in theory Taz should have him easy. But due to his height, and how wild people are on coke, I’d bet the Warrior takes it.

Warrior owning ECW would've been something

Given the amount of cocaine you'd imagine was in his system, I'd assume his sweat would be like when the acid that comes out when a Xenomorph bleeds in Alien, so he'd have that in his favour too.

Don't you think Jim would still shake the ropes during a shoot fight? Taz might just choke him out when his back is turned.

It's the idea of Warrior's mad wife turning up with him and saying something to New Jack that I'd have liked to see.

This popped up on my feed today, don’t think I’ve ever seen an Al Snow full ECW entrance before, just the typical one they show on the docs with people talking over it.
