Sami Zayn is turning heel at HITC.

I believe this is the best match between them during this loooong feud.

This was very good. Shawn Michaels looks absolutely ridiculous.

These two are what held up ECW in its last 14 months or so. Great match here. Tajiri having a fabulous year.

The finish drags this down quite a bit, but up until the last five minutes, this was really good and far and away the best of the series. This does, however, lead to what I remember being a very good match between RVD and Anton.

Great Booking.

Great Booking.

Didn't like it. The January tables match holds up, this does not.

This was a great brawl-juice fest. Tajiri continues to kill it. One of the last great ECW matches and probably THE last great three way dance in the company.

Corino and Tajiri made this match only to have arguably the three worst wrestlers ever (Jack, Dreamer, Sandman) bring it down. Solely due to Corino and Tajiri does this reach great at all. Makes me anxious to watch their Hardcore Heaven match next month, This is a great brawl, but not sure I can put it in the top tier simply because of the face team.

Taz' music hitting and him coming out may be the very last great ECW moment. Too bad the 'match' was the shits. It should have been 30 seconds of him suplexing Awesome around and then a choke out.

I thought this was far below the Mexican Death match. Too much generic table breaking and not as up close and personal as the aforementioned match.

This is the last match I watched for February because I knew from previous viewings that it was going to be a treat. Definite MOTYC here.

This started out good, but devolved into a typical ECW brawl. I just can't take Kanemura seriously with his air-brushed jean shorts and dress shirt. Tucked in no less.

This was really good. They had a match with hardcore elements instead of hardcore spots with a headlock or two in-between.

Not much more I can add, but what an incredibly fun match.

I really liked this. Williams bringing it in AJ and he and Vader as a tag team could have had a good run in WCW or ECW, but money wouldn't have been there.

The Slaughter/Sheik Boot Camp Match is complete?

Jason Jordan is dead on arrival. Hardy's need to be Broken and not Hardyzzzz asap. They are in their 40's for christ sake. Miz looked legit pissed at being the pre-show opener and rightfully so. Tozawa/Neville should have been main show. Think it would have been better with a larger crowd. Usos v. New Day was ****1/2 Natalya/Naomi and Bliss/Banks were very good. I LOVE Cesaro and Sheamus as a team but would love a Cesaro 70's heel world champion run. I hate Rollins/Ambrose The main event was ***** Cena making Corbin look stupid was great. Probably what Cena razzing Alex Riley backstage looked like. Rusev deserves much better. If Show/Cass had this match with no Enzo whatsoever, it would have been better. Still not great, but the hand work was fun. Demon/Bray ... meh. AJ is awesome. Shane brought this down. Owen has been regressing since he turned on Sami in NXT after his debut. Time for Jinder to get that gynecomastia surgery.

I loved every second of this. Always been a big fan of KAORU. 2/13/00 GAEA show was amazing with these two great matches. Well, the tag being MOTY only lasted until the next match on the same show. Just outstanding.

Really enjoyed this. Best Joshi match this year so far.

Really enjoyed this match. Particularly due to Hansen.

I know there were extended clips released. Not sure about the whole match. I'm sure Bix or somebody like that would know.
