ECW (Extreme Championship Wrestling) - Deep Impact Uncensored description
This anthology of wrestling mayhem from Extreme Championship Wrestling promises an "emotional barbed wire hell," and it delivers. In one gory match, Terry Funk, whose specialty is taking more punishment than any sane person could stand, meets the evil and vicious Sabu in a ring surrounded with barbed wire. In their battle for the ECW World Heavyweight championship, it doesn't take long for them to be smeared with blood, beating the hell out of each other while hopelessly entangled in strands of wire. It eventually takes several men with tools to cut them free as the announcer proclaims that the action just witnessed is too brutal to ever be shown on television. In another match Steve Austin, before he became "Stone Cold" and attained primetime stardom, battles in a "three-way dance" with other notorious bad asses Mikey Whipwreck and the Sandman. And Mick Foley, in his "Cactus Jack" persona, tangles with Terry Funk and gets burned (literally). Bonus footage includes an "aerial war" between Japanese and Mexican wrestlers that provides some diversion from the usual hardcore brutality, and in what's billed as the "Original Catfight," bad girls Beulah McGillicuddy and Francine drive the crowd wild by shedding all civility along with most of their clothing. While the production of this DVD is reasonably professional, that doesn't detract from the decidedly gnarly and low-rent feel ECW fans adore. Fans of more tame and cartoonish wrestling should be warned that the blood does flow freely in some of these matches. --Robert J. McNamara |

More ECW goodness
|
More? The structure of the DVD is identical to that of ECW's "Path of Destruction". There seems to be nothing ECW can do wrong, and this DVD showcases shining examples of this.
The best of ECW matches part 2, so to speak, this DVD is pretty much what you expect from ECW, but also includes bonus promos which showcase another great aspect of ECW, including the promo featuring Steve Austin imitating Hulk Hogan.
Two matches stand out in my mind, however. The best one and the worst one.
Yoshihiro Tajiri vs Psicosis
To any critic of ECW who thinks it too violent, too bloody, too raunchy, anything like that, this is the absolute antithesis of that all. In the same vein as Eddie Guerrero vs Dean Malenko in their last ECW match, this one was no weapons, no blood, pure raw athletic wrestling at its best, with no fake-punches, and amazing feats of chain-wrestling, technical wrestling, and high flying from two guys who look, to the average eye, normal, or even handsome to some. The shining example of what makes up ECW---not just violence, wrestling.
Beulah McGillicuty vs Francine
Unfortunately, ECW doesn't break the mold of the women's division being mediocre. There was a lot of nothing in this match as Beulah catfights Francine, then slowly strips her down. Francine botches most, if not all moves given to her, including completely fumbling a sidekick by Stevie Richards, and selling Raven's kick to the gut about a half second too late. If you like women in bra and panties catfighting... this one would be good for you, but you can see that in the WWE all the time.
