Today is the 58th Birthday of WCW star and ECW OG Raven.
Raven was one of my favorites growing up and among the more influential stars from the 90s. Here are a few of my favorite memories of him.
Raven was one of the most dynamic and polarizing wrestlers of the 90s and played a significant role in the attitude era. His early work in ECW helped to bring a more story-driven focus to hardcore wrestling, primarily through his iconic feud against Tommy Dreamer.
Even though the two had one of the most violent feuds in wrestling history, the two would eventually reunite to be tag champions.
Raven also succeeded in WCW, winning the US title and building his stable. The Flock.
He also fought a fan who hit the ring while he was talking:
He had a less remarkable run in WWF, where he was mostly known for driving a golf cart during a hardcore title match at WrestleMania X7.
Following this, Raven enjoyed some success in the indies, including a memorable feud with a young CM Punk.
It is also the birthday of fellow flock member Lodi.
The two worked together. Lodi was a member of Raven’s “Flock” member in WCW, and the two faced off against each other in an NWA title match.
