Rightfully, the 90's mostly sucked and the best PPV cards were ECW shows with a ton of cool wrestling and minimal dumb poo poo, as opposed to dumb poo poo with minimal good wrestling

That's like arguing that Boris Johnson was an acceptable UK Prime Minister because he won the general election.

After some quick Googling, i'm not seeing a similarity. Canadian Stampede lost in a 1 vs 1 vote, whereas Boris Johnson beat three different people in his vote

the similarity is that all the options are uber dog poo poo. just kidding. i appreciate the hard work that the wrestlers put in in the 1990s and i'm proud of all our semi-finalists

Your mother!

The 1990s were rough, but there's no way in hell that two ECW shows were the best PPVs of the decade.

The results show that sandman was in the best main event match of the decade

Yeah Heatwave 98 is my go to for a good variety of ECW styles. Tanaka/Awesome is insane, Taz is a badass against Bam Bam, Candido/Storm is way ahead of it's time, and you get a Dudley Boys street fight for the main event. Plus a rare American appearance from my favourite wrestler as a kid Hayabusa.

Really the only thing missing is the luchadores, but as far as I remember they were all gone to WCW by the time ECW got ppv

It was 10 months ago when I made this post and I still very much agree with it, Heat Wave rules

Vote for the one without a 20 minute Shane Douglas singles match

Heatwave is a good show, worthy winner! Still wince slightly at Mike Awesome getting his head jammed under the barricade though.

Thanks for hosting!
