Forever Hardcore DVD Review


With the now watered down and barely distinguishable ECW on WWE programming I thought it was time to look back at the rise and fall of the legendary original ECW as created by Paul Heyman, Todd Gordon and others.

This two hour documentary by Jeremy Borash is a superb addition to the WWE made Rise and Fall of ECW, which although wonderul in its own right did put a slightly WWE friendly slant on matters.

This is a nicely made, talking heads style programme, where many of the ECW originals (not uneder contract to WWE)speak about the company from its humble beginning to its highs points and eventual implosion.

Its great to hear people like sandman, Terry Funk, Sabu, Francine, Shane Douglas and Pitbull Gary Wolfe all talk about the company and thier involvment.

Its a must for any fans of ECW and those curious as to just what the original company did and how it paved the way for current WWE and TNA shows.
