Totally Agree.👍 WWF tried a Grunge Gimmick in '95 with "Rad Radford", but he went nowhere. Raven's Attitude would have been perfect for late 90s WWF. They were trying a Rock/Metal gimmick with the Headbangers, but Raven could have "lead" those guys, and had his own faction. He could have called it "The Murder", or something like that. 👍🤘
@@peterashworth8376 It wasnt over for me!😅🤘 But that said mate, the Outcast Rocker look could easily have fit in, perhaps adjusting to the then current metal climate, be it a Slipknot T-Shirt. If anything, the "Nu Metal" , Post Grunge era of the late 90s/early 00s was pushing the sense of anger and isolation further, so Raven could have evenly flowed alongside that. Leather Jackets n' Jeans never go outta style, so he'd have no issues with that. 👍
Thanks to a certain channel recapping the entire the Monday Night Wars, I was able to get a new appreciation for the Raven character. I remember watching Kanyon tour Raven's home, and Kanyon was befuddled that Raven came from such wealth. What I didn't realize at the time is that Raven "Child of Wealth and Privilege" was always part of his gimmick, at least in WCW This completely recontextualizes his entire character. Much more a spoiled brat then a social misfit. And more like his parents then Raven might wish to admit when you consider the power he had over the Flock. (more comparable to a corporate businessman and his dutiful Yes Men.)
Yes! That was the best thing Raven did, as far as I was concerned. I knew a dozen guys like him growing up in the suburbs and thought they were all eye-roll worthy.
The irony was that Raven’s talked about how much he initially disliked those segments since he thought it betrayed his character. He acknowledges how much fans liked it and were convinced that that was his mom in the skit
I’d love a character retrospective of Doink! I am a huge mark for the original heel Doink played by Matt Bourne. A video about how great that gimmick was (and how they soon wrecked it) would be fantastic.
Raven was one of my favorite wrestlers as a kid. It speaks so much on his character that I was barely able to watch WCW where I lived and only knew him from the odd WCW or ECW clips or video game. I was just a kid and barely got to see him and he stuck with me so much that he was one of my faves.
Here it is. Here's, Scotty was known to read the comics. He wanted to play The Raven for years. Jim even played his neighbour. Me, personally my favorite is Scott vs Mero in WCW. Mero of course, had snapped two weeks before and vowed to never wrestle again. Then Scotty came on the scene. Thing is Scotty was the whole reason Kurt didn't sign with ECW. But when Scotty won the title at SuumerSlam, that's when it all came together.
I loved Ravens title reign and his later stuff with Runt and Abyss, as an Anglo-Saxon history fan he became the embodiment of Eodric Streona in that feud and the one good thing about serotonin was him putting Kaz over. For wrestling moments though, that Slammiversary one was awesome.
This is an incredible video & concept series, should you continue with this idea. Raven is one of the greatest characters of all time, conceptually. Scott gave everything he had in him to make his character believable. He is one the cornerstones of the O.G. ECW ( R.I.P. ), & should be given praise for helping to pioneer the revolution of counterculture in pro wrestling in the early 90's. You always have a knack for finding & posting the best clips- love The Melvins, A.I.C, & Nirvana footage!!!
Not only is this a phenomenal idea but it's also a phenomenal episode. I think anything accompanied with your commentary is going to be a hit. Keep up the awesome work!
Raven was EVERYTHING to me when I was in highschool. I had a little "Flock" of girls that would follow me around. We wore flannels around our waists, I would crimp my hair all crazy to be like Raven, and we would beat up other girls. Lmiao. Good times. 💜
Speaking of Kurt; Raven crucifying Sandman is the reason Kurt decided not to sign for ECW (didn't have any issues with Taker doing it to Austin though)
Raven is my favourite wrestler essentially for the reasons stated but it’s so nice to have a video like this where not only kudos are given but it can contextualise the man’s entire career! Excellent vid
Hell yeah dude, great idea for a series. One character I think could get a lot more attention is the Glacier character that debuted in WCW in the late 90's. I don't know if you've heard of this wrestler, but I thought his origins and overall place in the ongoing lore as it pertained to wrestling was fascinating and you should give it a look. Underrated, if you ask me.
Randy Savage would be a great first episode. I actually watched a documentary about the man who designed his gear. Guy used to make clothes for Jimi Hendrix and such too. It’s an interesting doc.
Please cover Eric Young. The dweeby "salty biscuits" and other guy in team Canada evolving to the maniacal heel he became was incredible character building.
Yeah got a feeling he won't cover EY though. Seems to avoid tna like the plague. I remember the heel turn series having 40 plus comments asking for Roodes beer bottle or Bullys aces n 8s turn and he no sold them 😂 horses for courses hey! Maybe do some coverage of them myself if I ever get the time/develop to anywhere near as good as WB
Absolutely love the video essay format. You could also do videos about the evolution of wrestler archetypes (foreign heel, Cowboy, etc.) Or even match types in general (the early TLC matches vs modern, etc.) Keep up the good work.
Very well done video as always good sir. Very good analysis of the Raven character as well; you really painted a good picture & hit on a lot of key points. Very descriptive, especially about the culture of the time, which is very key to fully understand the character. Great job man. I would definitely enjoy seeing more content like this!
This was great,prefer these to the computer game videos,you missed out his run with Abyss.More of these type of videos reminds me of the good old biography videos you used to do!!!
This reminds me that we don't have gimmicks anymore. We have "personas" that change year to year, even month to month, that completely changes how someone acts for no reason and it comes off as phony. Good idea for a series. I look forward to seeing what you can do with it.
Nevermore! Loved it when he had the feud with Father James Mitchell in tna. They had great chemistry. Love to see a deep dive into the Eric Young story.
Please keep this going. This actually helps me with my CAWs in 2K23. It breaks down the character to be more than just wrestler a and wrestler b😂 excited to see who you pick up next 💯
Love this concept and Raven was the ideal starting - would be interested in seeing a dive into the Umaga character and gimmick, as well as The Pope from TNA
LOVE this new series and Raven is a perfect catalyst! In the contemporary landscape of pro wrestling channels, this approach is unique and very welcome… more than your fans know!
Raven is the perfect character to start this series with. Raven needs to go into The WWE hall of fame. I know Vince isn't a fan but Raven's character is one of the best in the history of pro wrestling.
The reason why Vince doesn’t like or “doesn’t get” the Raven character is he didn’t create him. Most big stars Vince didn’t create he tends to dismiss.
Already all about this series. I miss how you world do bios but love the direction you have gone in, from indepth rivalrys and moments, the gaming videos and reliving the war. But this i feel is abit closer to what you was doing when i originally subscribed. Very excited about this new chapter. Thanks for your time and content.
@ wrestlingbios Great IDEA for a show. Undertaker would be great! But I look forward to all those mentioned. This is why I subscribed you're love for wrestling and it's characters really comes across in every video and, series good work.
One of the few gimmicks to this day that I can relate with , due to my history of mental health and depression, Raven and the character always intrigued me all my life.
Raven was the sole individual that got me into wrestling. It was when he attacked DDP on TRL. It peaqued my interest and I was hooked from there. Totally underappreciated worker and his ability to reinvent himself is second only to Jericho imo.
Jericho from inception to present would make for a fascinating character study, though tbf after about 2015-6 he does become rather insufferable and repetitive to watch. His work with Stephanie McMahon is something unusual and noteworthy in terms of wider wrestling history.
Well to be honest I loved it!!!!!😊 It was a very interesting 🤔 and would love to see more character arcs such as how Dustin Rhodes was the natural only to change into goldust in the WWF and onto Black Rain in TNA....
Got a lot of love for Scott after watching your latest reliving the war series and the way he stayed with Villano until help arrived despite ignoring kayfabe. Great gimmick and good idea for a new series mate. I like the fact you keep things fresh with new ideas.
I like this idea of exploring a specific gimmick or character instead of a career retrospective. This presentation is okay. I think you'll refine it more if you keep doing it, like with your other video series. Not sure I like the title "Creating A Wrestler" because it sounds like some video game mode, but whatever. As for a gimmick or character suggestion, The Hurricane or Abyss.
This section of the channel is incredible, a great idea. Raven is one of the greatest character that wrestling has ever had. Another great wrestler character to analize would be 'The Loose Cannon' Brian Pillman.
Great idea bios. I love to hear stories of how well known gimmicks got created. Raven was a good choice for a first episode. For the next one, can you please cover Kane and his impact?
It's a really good video and I think you should do more. My suggestions are The Loose Cannon Brian Pillman, The Hart Foundation (Bret, Owen, Bulldog, Pillman and Niedhart) and Duke The Dumpster Drose!
I'll die on the hill that raven being revealed as a spoiled rich kid was a stroke of genius Also I'd love to see a deep dive into the undertaker kane and Paul bearer characters
That would've been perfect. No explanation would be needed. The banter back and forth would be excellent. Maybe even have the "druids" come down to ringside during a PPV, and when Undertaker is about to win a match against Raven, they get in the ring and attack him. Then have them take the robes off, and it's the start of a new "Flock". I'm an Undertaker fan through and through, but that would've blown my mind. It's the type of thing Raven would do as well. That would've cemented Raven's spot in WWF/E for sure. One can only dream though.
I enjoyed this very much. Actually watched the Sting episode first. I was surprised given how Sting had already been the subject of a video, but these are great too. Your wrestling content is the best on UA-cam, keep up the good work!
Thank you Wrestling Bios. Superb idea. Superb video. Raven was a phenomenal character and should have dominated for much longer. Perfect attitude era World Champion.
Great idea for a new series, homie! ...and a fantastic first entry to this series! Those wrestlers that you mentioned at the end of the video, are all excellent choices for this series to continue.
Probably one of my favorite videos you have ever done!! This is absolutely the kind of character breakdowns I have as hoping for!! Congrats and can’t wait for the full series!!
Jimmy Jacobs bio when🙏🙏🙏🙏his character changes and gimmicks across the indies is something to behold. His work in TNA, ROH and CHIKARA in particular are Emmy-worthy.
Raven makes a great first episode for this. He was the best character ECW ever had.
I don't know. Roadkill was kind of hardcore.
Bro Taz was a midget and got over he was all gimmick
Dudleys.
@@BlueBellsRBlueDudley’s didn’t really have a gimmick or back story in depth like Raven
@@michaelreich4827 CHICKENS
This is wonderful. It baffles me that Raven was left by the wayside in WWF. His character screams attitude era. I would love to see more of these.

They were trying a Rock/Metal gimmick with the Headbangers, but Raven could have "lead" those guys, and had his own faction. He could have called it "The Murder", or something like that. 👍🤘
Two words; Vince McMahon.
If it wasn’t created by Vince then the Vince never gave a gimmick a chance
By the time he finally got to WWE, it was 2000 and society was well past grunge.
@@peterashworth8376 It wasnt over for me!😅🤘 But that said mate, the Outcast Rocker look could easily have fit in, perhaps adjusting to the then current metal climate, be it a Slipknot T-Shirt.

Yes! That was the best thing Raven did, as far as I was concerned. I knew a dozen guys like him growing up in the suburbs and thought they were all eye-roll worthy.
Its extreme Shane-o mac, but with actual skills.. And backstory.. What little Mac shoulda been
Yes exactly! Scott was so clever that he linked every single one of his ostensibly diverse characters with a common thread.
The irony was that Raven’s talked about how much he initially disliked those segments since he thought it betrayed his character. He acknowledges how much fans liked it and were convinced that that was his mom in the skit
I'll stand by this forever: Raven is the most underrated and underused talent of his era. Great mind for the business. He just gets it.
The only other character that was more wasted in WCW was Vampiro. So much potential, so much wasted
This is a great idea! Raven was my favourite wrestler - loved him in the WCW days.
Old people are crazy man
@@deanpeanuts5112 im young and raven is awesome you sir are the crazy 1 young ppl are crazier apparently🤷
I’d love a character retrospective of Doink! I am a huge mark for the original heel Doink played by Matt Bourne. A video about how great that gimmick was (and how they soon wrecked it) would be fantastic.
upvote!
I had the same idea great weird character work
Matt Bourne kinda ruined it himself
love this new idea. raven was a great first choice, kane would be another great character analyzation.
How about Mantaur or Issac Yankem?
@@martynodonnell the problem with both is that they never evolved
@@martynodonnell YET-TAY!
NEEDS MORE KANE
He was made for the Attitude era. Great video, please continue!
This is a great idea for a video series. I hope to see you do more of these.

LOVED the video. Raven is my all-time favorite ECW Wrestler. Shame WWE/F didn't utilize him better.
Because, for as genius as Vince is, he is just as dense.
Gotta agree with John. Dude’s miss column could, and should be smaller if he’d listen to other people at times… that and an HR department.
A huge ball drop in my opinion
Here it is. Here's, Scotty was known to read the comics. He wanted to play The Raven for years. Jim even played his neighbour. Me, personally my favorite is Scott vs Mero in WCW.

i loved Raven especially in ECW & WCW. One of my favourite boys in wrestling ever.
Raven vs Sandman Fued was the best in ECW ! ♥
only reason I got into wrestling in the 90s tbh

Raven had one of the most intriguing character gimmicks I’ve ever gotten to know. My favorite ECW wrestler
He became an all original character. Everybody can connect with rock and roll.....Especially NIRVANA 🤟🎸
been a fan for about 2-3 years and i think this is a 10/10 idea! Go for it Ryan, you have the jam!!!!
Not only is this a phenomenal idea but it's also a phenomenal episode. I think anything accompanied with your commentary is going to be a hit. Keep up the awesome work!

We 100% need more videos like this, just a real treasure trove of opportunities and this video was so well done
Love Raven, be quality to see an analysis of Kurt Angles character evolution also
Speaking of Kurt; Raven crucifying Sandman is the reason Kurt decided not to sign for ECW (didn't have any issues with Taker doing it to Austin though)
Love it, man. I'm sure all of us are thirsty for more of this type of videos
Yup
Raven is my favourite wrestler essentially for the reasons stated but it’s so nice to have a video like this where not only kudos are given but it can contextualise the man’s entire career! Excellent vid
So chuffed one of my favorite wrestlers is the focus of this innaugural episode, so stoked you made this, nice job.
18:18 Believe it or not, I believe Raven could work with a modern day audience,
I love the idea of these being a regular series!!
Excellent video. Well done. Raven was absolutely the best ECW had. Mic skills, crowd heat, music, gimmick and attire. He was a character.
Great choice! He fit in so well with the 90s grunge scene as you mentioned.
Hell yeah dude, great idea for a series. One character I think could get a lot more attention is the Glacier character that debuted in WCW in the late 90's.

I choose to believe you're not a regular watcher, which makes your comment 100% funnier.
@@hazardtriplezero it's either that or he's being sarcastic
If you do a deep dive on the Glacier character, I'm unsubscribing.
This is great . I love how you explain the career and how he evolved . Please make more of these .
This is such a great idea for a new series! Absolutely love the idea and how you are breaking it down! Cheers from Providence RI!
THIS IS A GREAT IDEA! I’d like to see a ring attire or facepaint history retrospective.
That's a cool idea too
Randy Savage would be a great first episode. I actually watched a documentary about the man who designed his gear. Guy used to make clothes for Jimi Hendrix and such too. It’s an interesting doc.
@@LadyAstarionAncunin Is it on UA-cam..?
Tributes too... like Jay Lethal/Randy Savage or Darby Allin/Sting.
@@taffysaur it’s the a&e wwe macho man biography
Raven was a great worker, kinda funny after meeting Scott.
This is gonna be a great series. You definitely picked the right person to kick it off with. I can't wait to see the triple h one
Please cover Eric Young. The dweeby "salty biscuits" and other guy in team Canada evolving to the maniacal heel he became was incredible character building.
I love EY. He doesn't get enough credit for his character work
YES! Never ever seen such a stark contrast from original to current character, an EY episode would be amazing
That's a good one. From his paranoid time to super Eric and then becoming a well hated heel
Yeah got a feeling he won't cover EY though. Seems to avoid tna like the plague.
I remember the heel turn series having 40 plus comments asking for Roodes beer bottle or Bullys aces n 8s turn and he no sold them 😂 horses for courses hey! Maybe do some coverage of them myself if I ever get the time/develop to anywhere near as good as WB
Raven & the flock was actually a cool gimmick character & storyline in ECW &
WCW
One of the few good things that came out of ecw. Loved his "long haired skirt wearing freak" promo and feud with establishment Larry Z in tna
Absolutely love the video essay format. You could also do videos about the evolution of wrestler archetypes (foreign heel, Cowboy, etc.) Or even match types in general (the early TLC matches vs modern, etc.) Keep up the good work.
i love this concept
RAVEN was awesome. He should've been a WORLD CHAMP in WCW/WWE @ LEAST ONCE
Solid idea so far. Your content is incredible, man!

Yesss, finally some more Raven content in the world!
Raven was the sole individual that got me into wrestling. It was when he attacked DDP on TRL. It peaqued my interest and I was hooked from there. Totally underappreciated worker and his ability to reinvent himself is second only to Jericho imo.
Jericho from inception to present would make for a fascinating character study, though tbf after about 2015-6 he does become rather insufferable and repetitive to watch. His work with Stephanie McMahon is something unusual and noteworthy in terms of wider wrestling history.
You don’t miss man. Great content
Well to be honest I loved it!!!!!😊 It was a very interesting 🤔 and would love to see more character arcs such as how Dustin Rhodes was the natural only to change into goldust in the WWF and onto Black Rain in TNA....
This was great bruv
Could you please cover some TNA talent?? AJ, Daniels, Angle, Sabin, Kaz, Roode and especially Eric Young
Got a lot of love for Scott after watching your latest reliving the war series and the way he stayed with Villano until help arrived despite ignoring kayfabe. Great gimmick and good idea for a new series mate. I like the fact you keep things fresh with new ideas.
Thanks Raven
5:10 We All took Patrick Swayze for granted big time. The man was an American Treasure.
This is quite good. Both as a concept and an episode. I'd vote for a look at The Great Muta!
"Quote the Raven, nevermore." isn't from the poem, just inspired by it. It's "Quoth the Raven, Nevermore." in the poem.
Fantastic series.
"Creating a Wrestler". Fantastic idea, man. I'm all here for it.
You really are my favorite pro wrestling content creator.
I like this idea of exploring a specific gimmick or character instead of a career retrospective. This presentation is okay.

Raven 1 of my favorites
RAVEN was Iconic in ECW, WCW and WWE!
The entrance in WWE when he would carry all the weapons in the trolley down to the ring!
Brilliant!!!
This section of the channel is incredible, a great idea. Raven is one of the greatest character that wrestling has ever had. Another great wrestler character to analize would be 'The Loose Cannon' Brian Pillman.
Great idea bios. I love to hear stories of how well known gimmicks got created. Raven was a good choice for a first episode. For the next one, can you please cover Kane and his impact?
It's a really good video and I think you should do more. My suggestions are The Loose Cannon Brian Pillman, The Hart Foundation (Bret, Owen, Bulldog, Pillman and Niedhart) and Duke The Dumpster Drose!
I'll die on the hill that raven being revealed as a spoiled rich kid was a stroke of genius
Also I'd love to see a deep dive into the undertaker kane and Paul bearer characters
Great job on this. How about the evolution of double J Jeff Jarrett?
Broken Matt Hardy would be a great one 🎉
I liked this video. Then again Raven is my favorite of all time
Serious Q, has there ever been a more stark difference between original to current character than Eric Young?
Mate this is a great idea. There’s plenty retrospective vids on here and having something abit more analytical is a welcome addition.
Imagine if he was the stalker instead of DDP against the undertaker in 2001
That would've been perfect. No explanation would be needed. The banter back and forth would be excellent. Maybe even have the "druids" come down to ringside during a PPV, and when Undertaker is about to win a match against Raven, they get in the ring and attack him. Then have them take the robes off, and it's the start of a new "Flock". I'm an Undertaker fan through and through, but that would've blown my mind. It's the type of thing Raven would do as well. That would've cemented Raven's spot in WWF/E for sure. One can only dream though.
Oddly enough, I found your channel by trying to search for videos exactly like this. I love it

Loads of potential in these ❤
