Guest NoCalMike Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 Ok on the Taz special tape series advertised in wrestling magazines, Taz vs. Raven is listed. However I have never seen this match available on any commercial releases. Does anyone remember seeing this match. I am thinking that it must have been during Taz's "Tazmaniac" stint in ECW. If that is the case, then it will automatically lose some luster since Raven & Taz were two of the most BRUTAL "forces to be reckoned" with in ECW's prime even though they were just about NEVER involved in one another's business/storyline.
Guest bob_barron Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 They fought in the WWF once. It was when the team broke up in winter 2000 I think
Guest Youth N Asia Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 I really can't remember them going at it in ECW. Cause Taz went undefeated from early 95 to Wrestlepalooza in 97....seriously, after he changed his gimmick he did NOT job. And Raven really didn't do much jobbing at that point either...so I really couldn't see Paul E having the two wrestle. They kept out of each other's storylines.
Guest papacita Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 I doubt it. I think they may have teamed once or twice, but Raven was on his way to WCW around the time Taz went face.
Guest Zack Malibu Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 If it happened, I would say it was at a house show. You might want to check the fancams on RF Video's site for reference. As far as major events and storylines, the two never crossed paths in ECW.
Guest NoCalMike Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 Well Taz didn't turn into the heel character until November To Remember '95.....so anytime before that, it could have randomly taken place on an ECW card.
Guest Zack Malibu Posted March 5, 2003 Report Posted March 5, 2003 Well Taz didn't turn into the heel character until November To Remember '95.....so anytime before that, it could have randomly taken place on an ECW card. Pre NTR '95, Dreamer and Raven were just getting their feud off the ground, while Taz was out with a neck injury, courtesy of Scorpio, Malenko and Benoit if I'm not mistaken. As I said, unless it was a match thrown together at a house show, they never fought.
Guest The Voices In Your Head Posted March 6, 2003 Report Posted March 6, 2003 If I remember right, they did wrestle once at a house show in May '95, shortly after Taz dropped the Tazmaniac gimmick, but before his heel turn. If you really want to be sure, check the RF match listings.
Guest Eagan469 Posted March 7, 2003 Report Posted March 7, 2003 The Raven vs. Taz match was reviewed on usenet: "I only recall one Taz vs. Raven match ever taking place, and it was waaaay back when he was known as The Tazmaniac. Taz hits Raven with a pineapple (you read that right) and pins him with a German Suplex." there ya go

Guest Nevermortal Posted March 8, 2003 Report Posted March 8, 2003 Taz v. Raven could've happen in late '99...
