Thomas Bugg Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 To me, this is a lost art. Pull apart brawls when done right, like anything in wrestling, can put asses in the seats, but also can convey that these motherfuckers really hate each other! When not done right, it can look like the two enemies or two factions are really not trying to kill each other. The intensity has to be there in order to make it look good. And in some cases it also helps if there's legit heat and they really want to kick each other's asses. Here's one of my favorites. Say what you will about the split factions of the nWo, but this was well pulled off in my opinion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DipIn98IYDI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetrolCB Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I used to love the old ECW pull apart brawls, where 2-3 feuds would be incorporated as it got more aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Cena bloodied and looking like he's gone completely insane and not giving a fuck. Lesnar being invincible. The entire roster can't keep them apart. Fuck yes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomAct Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I can't remember the date, but there was a Nitro in 97 that had one of those "all feuds converging" type brawls. It started with a NWO brawl, and ended up involving the Horsemen, Harlem Heat, the Steiners and seemingly everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Bugg Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Dude, I really wish someone would've knocked out Green Lantern Fan Also, ROH needs to get the stick out of their butts and allow uploading of some of their old material, because there was one brawl that I really wanted to put on here but couldn't. It was at Testing The Limit after the Briscoes vs. The Rottweilers. Jay pinned Low-Ki if I remember correctly, and Ki gets up and kicks Jay's head for a field goal! Mark, of course not wanting to stand around and take this shit, immediately gets in Ki and Homicide's grill about it, suddenly Samoa Joe appears, then Julius Smokes, and it was World War III. You gotta remember that this was 2004, when all that crazy shit happened in ROH, and I believe it was the locker room needing to let out a lot of steam and frustration from the whole situation. Gabe was smart to book it and it came off looking like a real fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I can't remember the date, but there was a Nitro in 97 that had one of those "all feuds converging" type brawls. It started with a NWO brawl, and ended up involving the Horsemen, Harlem Heat, the Steiners and seemingly everyone else. I am 99% sure this was the one that ended with Hogan backing off from a Villano which is like the greatest thing in the history of wrestling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbie Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Pull apart brawls don't happened because rivalries really don't get that heated anymore or there is no need for them because the heels chicken our and/or get their asses kicked anyway.

Craig H Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The first ECW One Night Stand had a good one. The one where JBL beats the shit out of Blue Meanie and made Meanie cry about it afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I love the idea of this. Huge brawl featuring the women Problem was this was TNA and the execution... yeah. Plus Ric Flair with a live mic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Meanie didn't "cry about it", he had a legit gripe because JBL was unprofessional and fucking shot on him. Did you see what Meanie looked like afterward? I'd be pissed too if somebody did that because of some shit I said on the internet... hell I'd be pissed no matter what reason they did it for. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbie Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 When the Bellas first turned heel, Brie was a little shit stirrer while Nikki started choking divas. I was amused by it: So much to like here: - Traver just hanging out for no reason - The comically over acted grasps by the Bellas - Gail and DB subtly calling the twins stupid - Brie asking when was the last time Gail was on TV - Gail calling the twins useless - Nikki YANKING Gail by the throat for slapping her sister - Nikki stomps on Gail in the corner while Brie goes on the attack of DB Nikki needs to go back to chokin' a bitch.

Curt McGirt Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I dug back into the NJPW '80s set to watch Murdoch vs. Abby (which was awesome and very close to Andre/Hansen levels of riotous behavior) then the next match happened to be a super-hot Fujinami vs. Choshu match with a great pull-apart where Fujinami refused to release the Scorpion, got DQed and everyone fills the ring for a brawl. That wasn't on Youtube but this (and I'm hoping it's the right match) is. I can't watch it so if you watch this, let me know if it's the right match, where Ogawa pretty much shoots on Hash and the feud between UFO and NJPW comes to a head. That is a pretty high bar for Pier 6 Brawls, as Gordon Solie used to call them (TM Jim Ross) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxftF1GObVQ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eikerir Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I loved the one between Morishima and Joe back in 2006 after all the NOAH and ROH guys came out to ringside to listen to Bruno, i think it was Glory by Honor V. It was great because it was short and sweet, it came completely out of nowhere and the crowd went nuts for it. I can't find a clip of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Edwin Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 TNA had one that lasted most of an Impact and ... it wasn't deplorable. This? The parking lot clips were good, the in ring stuff was too goofy for an all riot. Since when do you hit irish whips in a riot? The ROH brawl previously posted between Homicide's crew and Corino's crew was the best except for Gabe constantly yelling "OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!"

Ultimo Necro Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 The whole CZW / RoH stuff was great, remember the old CZWFans board exploding when it was rumored that Super Dragon monkeyflipped a fan during one show. RoH as a whole has a pretty good history of pull aparts and multi man riots! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMKFyyPZ1xw 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Theres a two part video series chronicling the CZW-ROH feud on YouTube. I remember the internet going crazy for the feud it was a big deal. Is the Cage of Death match up in full on either YouTube or Daily Motion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
