Raven's Flock was a large stable that began as Raven's Nest, with a frequently fluctuating membership in Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) in 1995, consisting of Raven's followers, henchmen, paramours and several hired guns. The Nest chiefly assisted Raven throughout his feuds with Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman. Over the years, Raven's Nest members and allies included: Stevie Richards, Tony Stetson, Johnny Hotbody, The Pitbulls, The Blue Meanie, the Dudley Boyz, Cactus Jack, Beulah McGillicutty, Francine, Kimona Wanalaya, Lupus, Lori and Tyler Fullington (as part of his feud with The Sandman), and Chastity.
The Flock was Raven's faction founded in August 1997 soon after his debut in World Championship Wrestling (WCW). All wrestlers in the faction adopted Raven's grunge gimmick, complete with similar ring attire. The group disbanded after former member Perry Saturn won the rest of the members' freedom from Raven on September 13, 1998 at Fall Brawl. The Flock is best remembered for hanging around in the crowd (usually at ringside) and then pouncing on any given wrestler, usually without provocation. Each member of the Flock was a social outcast for one reason or another and sought acceptance within the Flock.
