Interesting backstory, although one thing I am mixed up on.It was widely speculated that HHH was going to go on to win the King of the Ring Tournament. But however, he was eliminated at the early rounds, due to a “Incident” That no one actually knows about!
Is this Incident going to be explained? It would be pretty stupid not to.

Wrestling News and Views from Around the World! Welcome to the number 1 Pro Wrestling news site on the Internet.
WWF Return News!
It appears that Diesel and Razor Ramon will be appearing on Raw this Monday. A Ad was seen during the King of the Ring PPV advertising them as a team! Also set for a return in the up-coming weeks is the 1-2-3 Kid. Even more return news with Sycho Sid, he is set for a come back around Summerslam as well.
Ultimate Trouble?
The Ultimate Warrior is said to be causing trouble again. He refused to go on The House show tours a few months back upon re-signing and was asked again. He refused, again! It appears the WWF are bored of Warrior’s attitude and antics! (Is this 1992 all over again?)
New King
Steve Austin was crowded King of the Ring last night and it was said that him winning it, over HHH is was a better move. (His post match promo was great!) He is set for a huge push soon. Speaking of HHH, His punishment for his un-known incident was a dark match with Aldo Montoya. HHH is set for another push soon, mind!
Perfect and Piper
Mr. Perfect is done with the WWF. Last night was his last date in his WWF contract, it’s excepted he’ll end up in WCW by the end of the year. Roddy Piper is still under contract to the WWF. Piper who is looking to join WCW is waiting until it runs down (Pretty soon from what I’ve heard)
WCW and WWF looking for new blood!
WCW have already signed Jimmy Snuka to a Contract and it looks more are on their way. Meanwhile the WWF are looking for stars of the future. They have signed Bobby Duncum Jr over the King of the Ring weekend to a development deal. Also Ron Simmion’s is started to be in talks with WWF.
Do forget to check out are review of Raw this Monday!

NW...WHAT?
The Wrestling world changed during the summer of 1996. But what if two of the most influenal men never made that move over to WCW? These men were Kevin Nash (Diesel) and Scott Hall (Razor Ramon)
WCW were in dire need of something to get kick start their engine, and were looking for anyone to sign over to WCW. Hall and Nash’s WWF contracts were basically of a Handshake agreement. But Vince knew these two were interested in a move to the other side, so offered them a contract they couldn’t refuse, with Added bonus! What these added bonuses are you’ll have to find out, but their damn sure interesting.
In light of this, the “Curtain Call” Incident never happened. It was widely speculated that HHH was going to go on to win the King of the Ring Tournament. But however, he was eliminated at the early rounds, due to a “Incident” That no one actually knows about! Meanwhile Best Buddy HBK was really happy he has his buddy’s sticking around him and was king of the Mountain in the WWF, but that was soon to change.
A Young Rebel by the Name of Stone Cold Steve Austin was breaking into the WWF like no mans business. After ditching the Million Dollar Man Ted Dibiase, back in May Steve Austin ripped through the WWF to the Semi Finals of the King of the Ring Tournament. Another man making a impact on the WWF was Mankind. Known around the world as either Cactus Jack or Mick Foley, Mankind was in war with the Undertaker. Yet another new comer was Brian Pillman. Pillman was released from his WCW contract and was involved in a *Minor Car accident, but escaped with a few bruises. After appearances at ECW, Pillman signed with the WWF and is already a key player. Even tho he has yet to actually wrestle.
But I hear you ask, you’ve mentioned all but one key factor in the WWF in 1996! Bret Hart! Well, while finishing shooting his movie series, Bret was looking forward to returning to the ring after his break, and was hoping to return quicker than excepted.
Find out what happens in the WWF in 1996 after the King of the Ring!

I was sitting in some local Hotel restaurant, thinking to myself, what was going to happen tonight at Wrestlepalooza. I have a rough plan of the out comes, but I really wanted to have feuds going. As I wrote more stuff on a piece of paper I was using, a familiar face stepped though the door.
“Ha, Paul Heyman we’ve got to stop meeting like this!” It was Vince McMahon, he made his way over to my table.
“Congratulations on your new show Paul, I’ve been watching it!”
“Thank You!”
“Paul you must be wondering hwy I’m here tonight?”
“Actually I do know we're going head to head on PPV tonight!”
“Yes, We;l I was on my way to the arena, But I got hungry and what not so I stopped here! I’m not stalking you!”
We both chucked.
“Now Paul, I have something to ask you, or rather I want something you’ve got!”
“What?”
“Paul, One member of your roster is, well… SID! He’s not the usual guy you have on your roster!”
“It’s a short-term thing”
“Well, Do you want to make Bischoff look a fool?”
“What do you have in mind Vince?”
He leaned over the table
“Well, Sid has been buried by you!”
“Wait, Its put of my plans”
“But if Sid loses to say one of your guys on the roster again, he’ll look weak right? So I have it on good authority that Eric Bischoff has signed Sid!”
“Vince, your just stirring the pot now!”
“Has he agreed to a contact from you?”
“Like I said it’s a short term deal!”
“Paul Believe me, He’s signed! Bury him TONIGHT!”
Vince stood up and went to the restroom! I immediately rang Tommy Dreamer
“Tommy, it’s Paul! I’ve got something to tell you”
I explained all this to Tommy and he had this to say
“Damn! I suppose do what Vince says! I mean If Sid wasn’t in ECW would Bischoff care? He Hates ECW! Remember Eddie, Dean, Chris! Hell Sandman wouldn’t get a look in, in WCW if he wasn’t a star in ECW! Damn it Bury the double crossing bastard!”
“But want if Vince is lieing?”
“Vince isn’t all evil! He seems like, but he’s not!”
“I dunno, Tommy! Anyway I’ve got to go!”
Vince was making his way back to the table.
“Paul You’ve got to believe me! But I would like to ask you something?”
“I’ve been tracking a certain worker! A former WCW World Champion, If that means anything!” He said sarcastically
“He goes by the name of Paul Wight!”
“Ah, the Giant I said!”
“Paul, he’s not so ready for us yet! Would you be interested in taking him?”
“Vince, we’re not your development territory! No Vince I would not take him for a month!”
“No not a month! A year even! Please Paul? I’ll even let you choose a worker from my damn Roster to keep!, If it’s reasonable of course!”
It was like he was dangling Meat in front of me! A huge giant for a year, his wages being paid for by someone else! And a worker from his Roster to keep!
“But Vince, how will you persuade him to come?”
“Who Paul or this other worker! I’ve Vince McMahon, They do anything I say!”
“Ok I’ll do it!”
“Great“ Vince stood up and was going to walk off!
“Hey Vince what about this worker!”
“I’ll tell the boys, And I’ll call you soon! Oh here’s Wight’s number, tell him Vince Called!
He left the hotel, I was happy and sad! Again Vince was dictating things to me! Last time we meet, he told me I had to change, now he’s claiming Sid is jumping, Making me that a worker and offering me anyone on his roster! Still I did get a former WCW World Champ, and another new person! But who?

ECW on UPN
The titles fade out with Mr. Modest making his way down to the ring, where Chris Chetti is awaiting his opponent.
Mr. Modest V Chris Chetti
In a short but decent match, Chris Chetti looked set for a victory over the cocky Mr. Modest, but after to much posing for the crowd Chris Chetti turned his back one to many times on Mr. Modest and this allowed Mr. Modest to nail The Reality Check on the un-expecting Chris Chetti for the win.
Winner: Mr. ModestWe go to the back where Sid is in his Dressing room lacing up his boots, but then from out of no where Chris Candido and Lance Strom fly into the room and start beating down The big Sid Vicious. As they run back out of the room, Sid is left down on his Dressing room floor after this hit and run attack by Strom and Candido.
We cut to the interview booth where RVD is standing with his Manager Bill Alfonso
Alfonso: Tajiri, You think your clever, attacking the Whole F’N Show like you did last week. Well Tajiri, RVD will face you this Sunday at Wrestlepalooza for this, ECW television Champion!

We go back to the ring where Rhino and Jerry Lynn are going at it!
Rhino V Jerry LynnIn quite a brutal match, Rhino gave Jerry Lynn some punishment with many weapons, Jerry Lynn however combated this with his speed and technical ability. The finish came when the cocky Mr. Modest strolled down to ringside to pose for the fans, this distracted Lynn long enough to allow Rhino to Re-group and hit the Gore!
Winner: Rhino
We fade into another Commercial break with Mr. Modest walking up the ramp with a cocky smile on his face.
We return with Simon Diamond and Christopher Daniels in the ring
Diamond: Do you people want to see The chair swinging freak Balls Mahoney? (Loud Pop) Well, I pretty much made him look more of a fool last week when I cracked his jaw with this very mic!
Christopher, do you want to see Balls?
Daniels: Well, Not really!
Then the sound of Balls Mahoney’s music plays as he and Axl Rotten make there way to the ring!
Diamond & Daniels V The Chair Swinger FreaksThis Match was hardly contest in the ring, Diamond and Daniels took some punishment from the steel chairs from Balls and Axl. While Daniels and Axl were brawling in the crowd, Diamond retreated to the ring, Balls seeing this as a chance for revenge, rolls into the ring after the Arrogant Simon Diamond. But unbeknown to Balls or the crowd, Diamond was holding that Mic again, BAM! 1-2-3 Diamond picks up a cheap win over Balls Mahoney!
Winner: Diamond & DanielsWe go to the back where Guido is with the all The FBI members!

New Jack: Oh!
Then Tracey Smothers makes a facial Express of pure dumbness, as he turns back New Jack nails him with a baking tray! And one shot to Johnny Swinger, Little Guido gets Little Mama out of harms way and legs it down the corridor!

Spike nails Buh Buh, with a boot to the gut, but D-Von makes the save stopping Spike hitting the Dudley dog. The Dudley’s lay into the Team of Dreamer and Spike, As Dreamer And Spike lay on the mat The Dudley’s pick up the belts and walk off!

Funk: You pieces of chicken Shit! (Loud Pop) Wrestlepalooza, Your going to go to Funk Uni!!!!
We see a ad for Wrestlepalooza! As we return Justin Credible is in the ring ready for the Main Event!
The sound of Taz’s Music hits as the crowd go wild!
Taz V Justin Credible (With Francine)After feeling each other out, Taz is distracted by Francine this gives Credible the advantage!

TAZMISSION~ Credible has not choice but to tap!

UPN were really behind us, they were almost begging me to put on a PPV per month like WCW And WWF do. They even offered to fund the company as far as advertising. This was my dream! ECW was going to have a PPV a month starting in 2 weeks! (Well Except in June, but I’ll explain that in a minute) UPN also worked out a deal for ECW on UPN to air in the UK, the Bravo Channel. ECW was going global!
I decided to fax over the dates for the PPV’s to Joey Styles. I also made him say the price, I made them cheaper than WWF’s and WCW’s for two reason’s! Competition, and are fans can enjoy it for less then what they pay for every two months.

ECW PPV news.
For those wondering if Masato Tanaka was really hurt, he suffered a bad back injury and faces up to 6 months on the sidelines. It was excepted that both him and Mike Awesome were to sign permanent deals if they had a good showing. However it looks in doubt, Masato Tanaka will or will not sign, but Mike Awesome will most probably sign.
Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten were scheduled to face Danny Doring and Roadkill live on the PPV, but for rest unknown the match never took place.
Also with the news confirming ECW going primetime on UPN, more details have been give to us minutes ago. 2 hours will be the regular amount of Time ECW will get, the only problem will be ECW might have to tone down there behaviour!
Also except to see even more new faces in ECW in the upcoming weeks. This week’s ECW Hardcore TV! Will be a re-cap show of what happened at Guilty As Charged.

Hey, personally I wasn't real able to check out much of ECW during this time period so any feedback I'm leaving is based purely on the booking and presentation. As far as the former is concerned I was pleasantly surprised. Forgive me if I'm showing my ignorance but Sid in ECW could be a nice touch and bringing in Regal could be a smart move if he's able to put on some technical displays with Douglas and possibly Taz? I liked Tazz being given the title as it sets up a nice feud with either Douglas or Tazz, either of which would go down well. I'm slightly concerned by RVD squashing Credible though. As far as I can tell, Heyman was high on Credible and even had him go over the Great Sasuke to legitimate his reign as champion. It's an interesting choice which sets up a face turn which I could deal with.
Biggest problem I have is with Misawa coming in. I'm not against it in principal but would have ECW have been able to throw out 300 grand on a single match. I like that you used it to put Storm over though. Push Lance Storm. They guy is a serious talent and could really do well I think.
Yeah, overall I've been enjoying reading this, although as I say, my knowledge of the time is pretty sketchy. I hope you continue with it because I think you've got some good idea
-
Any feedback guys?

We go to the ring where Joey Styles and Cyrus standing in the ring.
Joey Styles: Welcome to ECW Guilty As Charged LIVE ON PPV! (Huge pop) Tonight for the first time, the ECW World Heavyweight title will be on the live in a Double Jeopardy match. Taz, Sabu, Steven Regal and ECW World Heavyweight champion Shane Douglas will all compete against one and other. Also…

The ECW Title’s fade in!
As they fade out, we return with Tajiri in the ring smiling with Cyrus, then the sound of Supercrazy’s music plays! We have a match!
Supercrazy V Tajiri
Tajiri goes straight off his famous kicks on Supercrazy, But crazy dodges every single one of them, except one that lands right on the side of his head. Tajiri picks up Crazy and places him in the corner. More martial arts kicks to Crazy! Tajiri locks in a weird looking arm hold on Crazy, Crazy soon spins Tajiri out of this and out of the ring. Crazy sees Tajiri re-grouping, so goes off a suicide plancha and hits it! The crowd are going wild!

Crazy rolls back into the ring, still showing the effects of going though the table! Tajiri stomps Supercrazy, he whips him into the ropes, but Crazy gets a rush of adrenaline, Springboard moonsault onto Tajiri! Crazy is having one last Adrenaline rush, kicks to the gut of Tajiri, He sets him up in the corner, Crazy plays to the crowd who are on there feet, he runs towards the corner! But Tajiri moves yet again, Tarantella! Tajiri releases the hold, Supercrazy is left on his knee’s, two stiff kicks to the head, Tajiri runs over to the rope! Seated dropkick! 1-2, Crazy puts his leg on the bottom rope! 3! The ref didn’t see, Tajiri quickly pushes the leg of Supercrazy’s off the bottom rope!
Winner: Tajiri.
The camera quickly turns to Joey Styles and Cyrus in the announce booth.
Styles: Up next is what some people are calling a international wrestling Dream match! Lance Strom V Mitsuhara Misawa!
Cyrus: Now Joey, here is a interesting fact. American Fans are dreaming of a match between a Canadian and a Japanese guy! Where’s the patriotism?
Styles gives Cyrus a dirty look!
Lance Strom comes out without Dawn Marie who was involved in that Catfight during the pre-show with Francine. Then the sound of some generic Japanese music plays as Mitsuahra Misawa gets a humongous pop! Fans begin to throw streamers into the ring.
Lance Storm V Mitsuhara Misawa
Ring Announcer: This match is schueled for one fall and has a 60 minute time limit! Introducing first, from The Wrestling capital of Canada, Calgary, Alberta Canada this is LANCE STORM!!! And his opponent from Japan, All Japan wrestling Legend; MITSUHARA MISAWA!!!

I arrived at the arena were we were holding the PPV tonight Guilty As Charged. It was still completely empty. I mean the ring crew hadn’t finished putting up the ring, all the chairs wasn’t put out! The show was going to start in about 5 hours! Almost 50% of the crowd are already outside! Now the pre-PPV nervous really kicked in!
Although we had a great card, I was scared that the network executives wouldn’t enjoy it! If they did how ever, then hopefully we will get the 2 hour Primetime slot they have up for grabs.
The heard a loud roar from outside, as I rushed to a window I could see over the crowd’s of people that it was Taz making his way into the arena. When he came in the first thing he said to me was;
“What the fuck” He looked towards the ring,
“Where’s the fucking ring Paul?”
“Well, Taz those House of Hardcore kids your training, aren’t doing a very good job!”
“Fuck that, watch this!”
I’ve never seen Taz move so fast, he knew where they was and about 5 minutes later all 15 of them came out to the ring like they had just been told off my a headmaster.

3 days after taping Hardcore TV, I felt a little down. WWF and WCW were having some great storylines going, Vince McMahon won the Royal Rumble, who saw that coming? I wanted to run some great storylines like I Did back in 1995 and 1996. Many of my major players had gone though. Raven, Sandman, Funk, Cactus and Whipwreak were all either in WCW or the WWF. The only guy available was Terry Funk but he was a 55 year man who couldn’t still go like he did 4 years ago.
My mind was at a all time low on idea’s I usually have the whole card of are PPV mapped out weeks in advance, now 1 week away I only have a rough idea of 3 matches! For Guilty As Charged to be successful I needed to make it feel like a big time Wrestling PPV. I had network executives from UPN coming down to watch us, I need ECW to stand out from the rest.
I got out my little black book of contact’s, I rang someone I hadn’t spoken to in a long time, Bobby Eaton.
“Hey Bobby, it’s me Paul Heyman”
“Well I’m be, I haven’t heard from you in years”
“Same here Bobby, how things going?”
“Not too bad Paul, I just finishes a tour of Japan and I’m looking for work”
From his tone of voice, I realised he was waiting for me to offer him a job, Bobby Eaton at one point of a fantastic worker, but not no more. I wanted to be loyal to him but I didn’t really have nothing for him. Although he did offer something else!
“Japan, you say?”
“Yup, the land of the rising sun!”
“Well, I’ve got a PPV coming up in a week was wondering if you knew anyone interested in coming down for it?”
“Well, Umm… There is a few guys I suspose!”
“Bobby, got you give me a number to ring?”
“Sure Paul”
He gave me a number of a load of Japanese guys representative. He didn’t have to do this, but Bobby Was Bobby. Too good for his own good, I wanted to re-pay him.
“Look Bobby, I’ve been in contact with a few networks about a Prime Time show, I need some experience so if we do get it, would you like too come down and do a few dates? “
“Paul, That would be awesome thanks so much!”
We finished off the conversation talking about old times, he was still such a nice man.
I rang the number he gave me, I knew it would cost a arm and a leg but if it helped buy-rates!
“Hello, who is this?”
“Paul Heyman from ECW”
“Oh, Mr Heyman, from ECW! What can we do for you?”
“I’ve got a PPV net week and was wondering if you had any available talent to come and work the date?”
“Ok, let me look?”
After a good 25 minutes he returns
“Mr Heyman we have one worker available and willing to work this date!”
“Who?”
“His name is Mitsuhara Misawa , would you like to confirm this?”
This guy was puro legend!
“Sure, how much?”
“300 thousand of your American Dollars!”
Damn, that was a bit high!
“Hmm, Ok then!”
I had just confirmed a Puro Legend for the PPV! Misawa V who? After a little while I knew what match I wanted to see, Misawa V Lance Strom! I faxed the details over to Joey Styles for ECW.com.
ECW.comWe at ECW are pleased to announce that Puro Legend Mitsuhara Misawa will be apart of Guilty as Charged. Misawa will face Lance Storm in a special Attraction match. This match is sure to be incredible.
Speaking of incredible, Justin Credible will get a chance at ECW gold when he faces My Pay-Per-View Rob Van Dam in for the Television Title.

ECW Hardcore TV!
The screen fades in after the opening title, with Shane Douglas with Francine in the ring.
Shane Douglas: Double Jeopardy! Double Jeopardy! What the fuck does that mean. All Week, I have been thinking to myself what Double Jeopardy means? Francine do you know what it means? (Francine shakes her head) So what did the franchise do, he got his monkey’s to research the term Double Jeopardy. (He pulls out a load of papers that are all together)
Double Jeopardy, also called "autrefois acquit" meaning "already acquitted") is a procedural defense (and, in many countries such as the United States, Canada, and India, a constitutional right) that forbids a defendant from being tried a second time for the same crime. At common law a defendant can plead autrefois acquit or autrefois convict; meaning the defendant has been acquitted or convicted of the same offence previously.
What the fuck did I just read?
The music of Taz hit’s!
Taz: Douglas, shut the fuck up you bitch (Loud Pop) You know nothing! I did “My” Research and found this:
4 men in the ring at the same time, they would be paired up as to who they had to pin to advance. Then the person pinned would return to the back, until it’s 1 on 1 and then the winner is the unified Champion.
So don’t come out here and try to be funny, cause it ain’t working! Now at Gulity As Charged I promise I’ll make you, and Sabu Tap! And if some other guys wants to get in my way? I’ll make him tap too! (He throws down the mic and leaves!)
Commercial break
We return with Sabu and Lance Strom tiein’ up!
Sabu V Lance Storm
Not much to write home about here, wasn’t really given enough time to get going. No real big spots from Sabu in this match. Almost a squash match. Sabu hit’s the Arabian Face buster for the win.
Winner: Sabu
After the match Taz comes running out of the back and from behind, chokes out Sabu! Taz stands over Sabu with a smile on his face!
The Camera goes to the locker room where Justin Credible is there
Justin Credible: You see this Singapore cane! This is a symbol of when I ran The Sandman out of ECW! Pretty much since then I’ve been over looked here in ECW, guys like Nova, Chris Chetti get more air time then me? Well I’m sick of being left on the sidelines! I’m going to make a impact, I’m going to get gold around my waste one way or another! Now that’s Just - In - Credible!

Winners: Corino and Rhino
After a few ad’s for ECW products, we return with the FBI in the ring.
Guido: Hey, You people listen to me! I’m about to introduce you too the newest FBI member’s: This is Johnny Swinger ( does a hellish smile) and this is the Lovely Little Mama Lionel! ( She does a sexy ring rope pose for the crowd) (A show your tit’s chant goes around the arena)
Tracey Smothers: Now…
Then, the sound of New Jack’s music hit’s as he comes down to the ring with a trash can full of shit!
He takes out Little Guido with a iron, Down goes Tracy smothers with the ironing board! Johnny Swinger runs in and gets a high back body drop! New Jack pulls out the guitar! BAM! Only New Jack and Little Mama Lionel are left together! As she goes to run off, she slips! New Jack goes right behind her! As she gets up, New Jack makes the motion as though he is, for the better term “Dogging” Little Mama Lionel! She turns and slaps New Jack!
As New Jack rubs his face, he quickly bends down, grabs a staple Gun and staple’s Little Mama Lionel’s Head! That was Sick! As she rushes to the back New Jack stands in the ring is glory!
Final Commercial break.
We return with RVD half way though his entrance with the fans. After a good 5 more minutes he stands and wait’s in the ring.
Ring Announcer: This match is for the right to fight, in the Double Jeopardy match at Guilty As Charged. To my left with the Manager of Champions Bill Alfonso, The ECW Television Champion, This is ROB VAN DAM! And his Opponent?
After a little while the sound of some generic music plays and Steven Regal steps out he curtain to a big pop! He obviously doesn’t react to the fans and completely ignores them!
Steven Regal V Rob Van Dam for the right to fight!
The fans start a Welcome Regal chant, as Regal Grabs the mic!
Regal: Now, Shut up you dirty animals see what a true respectful gentlemen like myself can do!
Now with this only being a 1 hour time show, 7 minutes where left in the show, a few bits were cut but the important bits where still there. Regal took control of the match, but as RVD was getting ready to mount a comeback, Justin Credible comes flying out and smashes the cane on RVD’s Back! Regal hook’s in the Regal Slam, and applies the regal stretch for the win!
Winner: Steven Regal
ECW goes off the air with Justin Credible smiling at RVD.

After the TV taping, I got the tape from the production truck and sent it straight off to America One. I was really pleased at how the show went.
2 days later…
I just got off the phone with two of my new signings. April Hunter and Johnny Swinger. I plan on using the both of them in the FBI. Also I decide that UPN would be the network I’ll try my luck with.
Now I had a little problem. At Guilty As Charged I had the Double Jeopardy match. A Double Jeopardy match worked like this:
4 men in the ring at the same time, they would be paired up as to who they had to pin to advance. Then the person pinned would return to the back, until it’s 1 on 1 and then the winner is the unified Champion. Now Taz/Sabu/ Shane Douglas was in the match. But I wanted a big surprise!
I knew who I wanted, So I announced this over on ECW.com
Next Week on America one, Rob Van Dam will take on a mystery opponent for the right to be in the Double Jeopardy match.Already in the Double Jeopardy match is Shane Douglas, Sabu and Taz.

ECW Hardcore TV!
The screen fades in with Paul Heyman standing in front of a banner with ECW on it.
Heyman: Ladies and gentlemen, You may have heard of a incident involving myself and Shane Douglas. Well I can confirm their was a incident, But that is put behind the both of us. Also reports of Shane Douglas leaving ECW are… NOT true. Tonight Shane Douglas will appear on the broadcast, Thank you and enjoy the show.
The Titles play
As the titles fade out, we go straight to the ring at the ECW arena where 6 men are waiting.
Ring Announcer: This match is a 6 man tag. Introducing first, from Japan, Yoshihiro Tajiri! And his partners making their ECW debut Michael Modest and Christopher Daniels!!! And their opponents From Mexico city, Mexico SUPERCRAZY! And his partners, Nova and Chris Chetti.
Tajiri/Modest/Daniels V Supercrazy/Nova/Chetti
All 6 men are known to fly and they did. As soon as the bell rang Tajiri went for his rival Supercrazy. They exchanged some amazing flying moves, until a botched move from Crazy allowed Tajiri to get the advantage. He tagged in the newcomer Michael Modest and we finally get to see what he offers. He wraps up Crazy in many holds working over his lower back. Daniels was next to get the tag and he performed a crazy senton on Supercrazy off the top rope. Daniels however let Supercrazy out of his sight to taunt the fans, this allowed Crazy to get the tag to Nova. Nova does the usual clearing house routine, as Chetti runs in to help his partner. They do a Rocker’s style double dropkick on both Daniels and Modest knocking them out the ring. Supercrazy then did his usual suicide plancha onto the outside on both Daniels and Modest. Tajiri enters the ring and pushes out Chris Chetti and hits his triple kicks on Nova. 1-2-3!
Winner: Tajiri/Modest/Daniels
As All competitors leave to the back, Chris Chetti is hot. He pushes Nova and asks what happened? But before Nova can say anything, The sound of Skull Von Crush’s music plays as he comes down to the ring. Chris Chetti bails out as Skull Von Crush attacks Nova, A ref is in the ring. Pump Handle Slam! 1-2-3 Chris Chetti is still outside just looking at Nova.
Winner: Skull Von Crush
We fade into a commercial break with Skull Von Crush celebrating.
We return with Taz standing inside a empty basketball court in New York.
Taz: Back when I made the FTW title, I designed it so Only I could have the belt. When you beat me on the 18th of December I felt, I felt so Pissed off! Now seeing you with your name taped over mine it pisses me off even more! So Sabu, at Guilty As Charged I want my belt back some way or another.
He stares into the camera, looking pretty mean!
We return with The Dudleys taking on Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten in a non-title match
In a short match, The Dudleys dominated the whole match. The finish came with the 3D on Axl Rotten for the 1-2-3.
After the match however from the back came Tommy Dreamer, all taped up from Last week’s encounter with The Dudley’s. With him is a trusty Steel Chair. He goes for both Dudley’s as they roll out the ring. They both back up to the entrance way were waiting for them is little brother Spike. He taps them both on the shoulder and does his patient Wave! As they back up to the ring, Dremaer nails D-Von with a chair, and then Buh Buh Ray. Him and Spike get in the ring.
Dreamer: D-Von, Buh Buh Ray. At Guilty As Charged, you put those Tag Belts on the line against US!
Buh Buh is screaming back saying they murder them or something along those lines.
We fade into the final commercial break.
When we return we see something we never though we would see again. ECW World Heavyweight Champion Shane Douglas walking to the ring with a clipboard. Also with him was Francine.
Shane Douglas: First of all you people still suck! (Loads of boo’s) (Then a Fuck you Douglas chants gets going) When I became the ECW World Champion I knew life was going to be different, well it has been eventful. Now I can’t deny what happened two weeks ago in Chicago. I was angry with Management over a disclosed reason!
Screw Paul Heyman!
You see this contract in my hand it’s a 3 year, 600 thousand dollars a year from WCW! (Loud Boo’s) (He gets out a pen, and signs it) There Mr Bischoff I hope your happy! (Francine is looking in disbelief)
After showing it to the fans he goes to leave the ring.
Arr.. Fuck it! (He rips up the contract) Screw WCW!
I’m ECW For LIFE!!! Now at Gulity As Charged I know a lot of people want me to defend this title will guess what? Taz, Sabu! Me V You two in a Triple Threat match for the ECW World Heavyweight title! But Also the FTW Title! In a Unifaction match!
This leads to the sound of Paul Heyman’s Music.
Heyman: Screw Heyman?, (He Chuckles) Anyway As for Gulity As Charged!
(Long Pause) DOUBLE JEOPARDY!!! (He then leaves the ring as Shane Douglas is looking bewildered)
ECW goes off the air!
