El-P Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Two words : Testicular Claw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted December 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 This should NOT be this good. Should NOT. Should NOT have better pacing and psychology than just about any ECW match I've seen from '95. Should NOT. But it does. Stevie submitting to the testicular claw is a funny finish, but this was a pretty decent match. We get a Dudleys/Pit Bulls brawl outside the ring when the Dudleys try to get into the cage. Raven manages to sneak in past all the chaos, then lock the cage. Raven gives her a DDT and finally everyone is able to get in. Dreamer does the most calm run-in ever. They slam the cage door shut on Raven's hand, which is a pretty cool payback spot. Dreamer ends up pulling a hair of handcuffs out of his boot, which is probably why he didn't run in, and we get the famous Chairshot Heard Round The World.

Tim Evans Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 The finish was nice but this was hard to watch mostly. Luna bleeding was rough. That chair shot was brutal though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenjo Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 It's hard to imagine this type of match happening in any other promotion worldwide. They'd be inundated with complaints and quite possibly thrown off TV. I don't think that's a bad thing either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I tend to agree with the point that intergender matches--while not inherently offensive--are nearly impossible to pull off well. I say "nearly" because I think this is a match that accomplishes it. It's not great, but for what it is, it works. Luna being bloodied and beaten is a bit disturbing, but...well, it's Luna, and I can buy that she'd be fine with this sort of thing. Stevie is pushed as such a generally ineffective putz that Luna dominating him works too. Both people try some pretty daring offense, including cage dives and Luna doing a Vader Bomb-type thing off the top rope with the help of the cage. The finish and post-match are two of the more iconic moments in ECW history of course, as Raven gets crucified against the cage and leveled with the chairshot heard 'round the world. An effective way for Dreamer to exact some revenge while still holding out on the pinfall victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstar Sleeze Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 Didnt watch the match but saw the post match angle. Chairshot heard round the World was brutal. They are doing a great job giving Dreamer victories like this in the feud or when he piledrove Beulah at Enter Sandman went into the crowd and had everyone chant E-C-DUB around him. He might not be winning the matches but he is winning the war. Raven cuts a great promo in Florida about how this all will backfire because Raven feasts on pain so the more anger Dreamer has and the more violent he becomes the stronger Raven becomes. Raven as a demented, evil empath is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
