I've been binge watching a lot of ECW Hardcore TV on the Newtork and man the Raven character was so dope :wow: his feud/matches with Dreamer were dope, he was CRAZY over and for a period of time he was like the face of ECW. Raven's Nest was good but there was something about The Flock that was cool as fukk back in the day. I remember when he faced Goldberg on Nitro for the U.S. Title and feeling like that was the first time Goldberg MIGHT be in a lil trouble, atmosphere felt big. He had some good matches/moments with Benoit and DDP around that time too that kinda goes under the radar.

Also, watching the Network lately I noticed that between 97'-99' he flip flopped between ECW and WCW like clockwork and still managed to NOT lose any steam. I watched a ECW ppv from 97' where he main evented and literally a few weeks later he was in WCW :mindblown: similar situation happened in 99' too.

Is he the only wrestler that wrestled in every promotion? He was in WWE, ECW, WCW, ROH and TNA. He was over everywhere he went it seems except WWE. Hope he gets that WWE HOF nod soon.

Raven ECW > Raven WCW > any other promotion

The Flock > Raven's Nest

WWE dropped the ball with him obviously, and then making him ditch the grunge look didn't do him any favors imo.
Flop run he had there, feuding with Matt Hardy on heat....seriously? WASTED.
TNA put the title on him and his ROH run was decent, the promos between him and punk were off the chain.
Don't get your hopes for a Hall Of Fame induction tho. Matter of fact I don't expect them to induct him anytime soon even tho he's clearly deserving a spot.

Always felt he should've played a much larger role during the invasion angle. To this day I don't understand why the Dudley Boyz were in the main event on team Alliance while Raven was nowhere to be found and RVD was fighting for the hardcore title.:why:

ECW Raven gets the nod IMO. Especially considering how opposite personality wise he actually is to the character


He likely isn't getting that HOF nod while alive considering that lawsuit. Shame really he's one of the handful of OG ECW alum with HOF credentials.

It got thrown out. Lots of guys sued Vince and came back. There'll be a time where they will run out of names from that era and that's when Raven and Chyna goes in

ECW. I liked him in WCW, but glass ceiling and all that. I would've loved to have seen a WCW vs. Flock vs. nWo feud. Raven should've been a main eventer anywhere he went. Including WWE.

Kinda mad I missed out on his first TNA run. I've heard it was really good.
