All in all, this is a great companion to the Rise and Fall of ECW DVD. This set chronicles the best matches in the history of ECW in chronological order. The first disc pretty much focuses on the early days of ECW right up to Barely Legal, the first pay-per-view. From the matches on disc one, I would definitely recommend the RVD/Sabu stretcher match, and the four corners match. The stretcher match wasn’t great by any means because there were a ton of blown spots but it was entertaining nonetheless. The four way dance was a marathon. The match itself ran close to 45 minutes, which is an enternity by ECW standards. The second disc contains everything from the peak era which could be considered from 1997-2001. Some matches I would recommend viewing pretty much everything off of the second disc except for the Sandman vs. Rhino match. Be forewarned though, the barbed wire match, the Taipei death match, and the street fight are extremely violent and should only be viewed if you have a strong stomach.
