Taz: There are very few men in this industry that can say they've beaten Taz in the ring.

There's a reason I've held onto this title for over 6 months. I've made the ECW TV title everything that it is today. I don't think for a second that someone like Justin Credible should be getting a shot at my title. He doesn't have what it takes to get in the ring with me. But no one likes taking out the trash.

Credible stomps Williams and brings him to his feet, playing to the crowd. Justin Credible sets him up ..

Styles: THAT'S INCREDIBLE!!

Credible makes the cover and gets the three count.

Winner: Justin Credible via pinfall.

After the match, Credible kicks Williams and he's sent out of the ring. Credible pics up a mic...

Justin Credible: And that right there is just a little taste of what's in store for Taz when that ECW Television title goes around my waist. Because that's not just the coolest. That's not just the best. That's JUSTIN ... CREDIBLE.

Credible does a crotch chop and drops the mic as he leaves the ring.

We come back from Commercial and the Dudley Boys are backstage

D-Von Dudley: Buh Buh, how long is it gonna take?! How long will it take for ECW to find some competition suitable for the Dudley Boyz. We are at the top of the ladder, Buh Buh. We've done everything there is to do in ECW. We've held the ECW Tag Team Title 3 times!

Buh Buh: You're god damn right, D-Von. So, here is the big idea. If there is any team in ECW or otherwise who think that they can beat the best f***ing tag team in the business. Come on down to the ECW Arena. Nevermind the smell, and the out of shape pricks. Bring everything you've got.

D-Von: Oh brotha. Tesssstifffffy!

Back to the ring and Shane Douglas makes his way to the ring with Terry Gordy, Francine, his ECW Title and Sandman's cane. The three of them get into the ring and Douglas gets on the mic.

Douglas: *smirking* Oh lord. The hotlines are buzzing The internet is on fire. The Franchise has pulled off the biggest news ECW has seen in years. Who is going to beat Shane Douglas?! He's got Terry f***ing Gordy watching his back. He's bought the best insurance money can buy. And now, the ECW World Title .. no one can take it away from him. NO ONE. I don't care if Jesus Christ himself steps foot in this piece of sh*t, he's gotta get through Terry Gordy first! So come one, come all, I am daring ANYONE with a big enough set to come down here, and try touch The FRANCHISE! *laughter*

Enter Sandman hits and the Sandman makes his way through the crowd. With the help of a few fans he stands on the guardrail and finishes off a beer, smashing it on his forehead when he's finished. Sandman then slides into the ring ..

Styles: There's your answer Shane Douglas!

Douglas and Gordy stomp Sandman as he's getting in the ring. He's able to get to his feet ..

Sandman vs Terry Gordy and Shane Douglas

The bell rings and Sandman is being pummeled by Douglas and Gordy. Sandman fights backs with simultaneous shots to Gordy and Douglas but is once again quickly overpowered. Douglas exits the ring while Gordy lays it in on Sandman. Douglas hands his ECW title to Francine and takes the singapore cane from her. He enters the ring and Sandman is getting a third wind with some hard rights to Gordy but Douglas cracks Sandman in the back of the head with the cane. Another cane shot to the head and Sandman is stumbling. Gordy hits a "HYYYUUUUGGEEE" lariat on the Sandman. They stomp away with Douglas getting a couple more shots in with the cane.

Styles: Oh come on! God god. This is pathetic.

As Douglas continues the beatdown "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains hits the loudspeaker much to the excitement of the fans.

Styles: Tommy Dreamer! It's Tommy Dreamer! But .. I ... to hell with it. Dreamer is here to even the odds.

Dreamers runs into the ring and brawls with Gordy and Douglas while Sandman lays on the mat. Douglas and Gordy quickly gain the upped hand on Dreamer, too and he's backed into the corned. Doulas wraps his arms around Dreamers waist for a belly-to-belly suplex but is caned by the Sandman! Sandman hits him again and then nails Gordy! Dreamer and Sandman now have the advantage and Douglas and Gordy leave the ring.

Winner(s): No contest

Dreamer and Sandman stare down Douglas and Gordy as they walk toward the back.

Static cuts in and the show is over...

(OOC: This spoiler doesn't contain anything that should spoil too much. Just a precaution for your imagination.)

ECW News and Notes

Apparently nothing is set in stone as far as Terry Gordy working in ECW is concerned. He's accepting bookings for independent promotions, but is said to have enjoyed the atmosphere in and outside the ring at this past ECW TV taping.

Thanks, MLW. (Very nice name by the way.)

Anyone else have any opinions? I'm going to continue it regardless, but I would like to hear some constructive criticism. Or just a general opinion.

3rd TV show will be up soon as well as some other goodies.

ECW Hardcore TV

12-9-1997

Static cuts in and out and we see Guido backstage talking with tag team partner Tracey Smothers.

Tracy Smothers: Yeah, but Guido. It don't gotta be like THIS. I mean .. there's gotta be somethin' we could do.

Guido: Y'know what? Yerright. It don't gotta be like this!

Smothers: Ya, see Guido! Wawawawawait ... what are you plannin'?

Smothers: Sal Bellomo?

Guido: Nonono I aint goin' down like that, Tracy.

We come back from the commercial break and ...

Simon Diamond: Simon has a problem! I am absolutely sick and tired of Philadelphia. I'm sick of the Phillies *cheers gets a smug look*. I'm sick of the 76ers and the Flyers. *cheers gets an eyeroll*. And I'm especially sick of losers like the Phi..

"Loser" hits the P.A. sysem as Mikey Whipwreck makes his way out to the ring.

Mikey Whipwreck vs Simon Diamond

Lockup. Hammerlock by Diamond gets reversed by Whipwreck. Diamond pushes Whipwreck into the turnbuckle. Hip-toss by Diamond. Hammerlock is back on Whipwreck. Diamond slaps Whipwreck around and Whipwreck responds with a few well placed elbows. Bulldog by Whipwreck gets a 2 count. Irish whip by Whipwreck, and another hip toss. Kick to the gut by Mikey. Northern Lights Suplex with a bridge sends Diamond down hard. 1. 2. Another kickout. Whipwreck gets up and is tripped by Diamond. Diamond hits a low blow on Mikey. Firemans carry into a seated rear chin lock by Diamond. Diamond drives his knee into Whipwrecks back. Diamond let's go and picks Mikey up. Bodyslam is reversed and Whipwreck pushes Diamond into the ropes Diamond goes backward and falls into the roll-up! 1 .. 2 ... 3!

Winner: Mikey Whipwreck via pinfall

After the match Simon Diamond is complaining to the referee, accusing Mikey of having his tights. The referee ignores Simon. Such disrespect is apparently warrant for a beating as Simon slaps the referee around before leaving.

We come back from a commercial and ..Bruce Prichard is in the ring?

Joey Styles: Hey! Is that who I think ... is that Brother Love?

*already in progress*

Bruce Prichard: ...well, let's keep in consideation most of the people watching this show, and most of the people here are a bunch of internet nerds. You all know who I am and where I come from. But, unlike some other "superstars", I'm not here to whine about my experiences in the BIG LEAGUES. I'm here to bring my clients, the greatest possible success. *booos .. im assuming because he used to be Brother Love?* But enough about myself, I would like to bring out the man I BROUGHT to ECW. A man who now needs no introduction ... Rhiiiino!

Bruce Prichard stands toward the entrance waiting for Rhino's music to come on. But instead we heard AC/DC! Spike Dudley is making his way to the ring holding his ribs. He climbs into the ring and takes the microphone from. After a few seconds he doesn't say anything ...

(yeah.)

Spike drops the mic and kicks Prichard in the gut. He sets him up and hits the Acid Drop! Rhino is running down to the ring! Spike rolls out and jumps the barrier into the crowd! Rhino is left with his manager in the ring as Spike waves, walking away into the crowd.

Back from another commercial and newcomer Michael Modest is in the ring. "Walk" by Pantera plays in the ECW Arena and Rob Van Dam makes his way to the ring with Bill Alfonso ...

Joey Styles: Oh wonderful. If Van Dam weren't enough, Bill Alfonso has to come along, too ...blowing that damn whistle.

Rob Van Dam vs Michael Modest

RVD starts off quick with an irish whip and a leapfrog. RVD hits the ground and uses his feet to send Modest flying over the top of him. Leg drop by RVD. *thumbs* RVD runs against the ropes and attempts the Rolling Thunder, but Modest has rolled to the outside as RVD catches himself mid-move. Modest is gaining his composure as RVD flies through the air, to the outside with a suicide dive. Modest and RVD both crash into the guardrail, sending it back a foot or two and causing the crowd to erupt in a "EC-DUB" chant" RVD is on his feet first and grabs a steel chair from ringside. Just as Modest is getting to his feet he's doubled over by a chair to the gut. RVD hands the chair to Fonzie, who holds the chair in front of Modest's face. RVD jumps to the ring apron and hits the Van Daminator off of the ring apron! Modest has a small cut on his forehead. He is rolled back into the ring by RVD, who then climbs the turnbuckles, *thumbs* 5 STAR FROG SPLASH! Fonzie goes crazy with the whistle and the ref counts to 3.

Winner: Rob Van Dam

Fonzie gets on the mic ..

Bill Alfonso: Yeah, baby! R V D *thumbs*. We'll take anyone baby! Taz, you're next daddy! *whistles*

Last commercial ...

Back in the ring Shane Douglas is standing with the World Title around his waist and Francine at his side, rubbing the title. He has the mic in his hands (hmmm?)

Shane Douglas:*boos in the background* Oh, I'm sorry. Don't you all understand yet? You can't be me, you can't have her and you'll never, ever have this belt. *laughs* But I came out here for a reason. I've been getting bored, sitting back there in the locker room watching a bunch of no talent punks take up TV time. So I've decided I was going to come out and issue a challenge. Not just anyone. I want someone who's "extreme". Someone who will give me a challenge. Someone tough as nails. Someone the fans would love to see me go toe to toe with. *crowd cheering* Yeah, that's right. Get out here. C'mon.

Francine looks worried and is trying to stop Douglas.

Douglas: CHRIS CHETTI. GET OUT HERE RIGHT NOW! *Douglas and Francine both laughing and the crowd booing* C'mon! I said I wanted a challenge. I said I wanted tough! Get out he ..

"Enter Sandman" is blaring! The Sandman makes his way through the crowd with a beer (or six), a cigarette and his trusy cane. By the time he gets to the ring he's got a little blood trickling from the forehead. He steps into the ring toe to toe with Shane Douglas who is backing away from him. The Sandman puts his cigarette out in the ring and raises his cane in the air. But Douglas is seen laughing a little when all of a sudden Terry "Bam Bam" Gordy attacks Sandman from behind! Sandman drops his cane and Douglas picks it up. Gordy is going to town on the Sandman with rights and lefts while Douglas holds Sandman's cane, laughing. Gordy takes a few steps back while Douglas canes the Sandman! Terry Gordy lifts Sandman up and sends him back down with a "HYYYUUUGGGGEEE" Spinebuster.

Douglas: It's an insurance policy, you asshole! And let this be a lesson to ANYONE who wants a part of the Franchise. You're gonna have to see "BAM BAM" FIRST. *laughter*

Static cuts in and the show is over...

ECW HARDCORE TV!

12-2-1997

Static fills the screen and quickly clears revealing Shane Douglas with the ECW World Title around his waist, along with Francine ...

Douglas: "Look at me, Francine. I'm living the dream. I'm the World Champion. I have the hottest woman in the business. And .. I ... know something ... THEY don't know." *laughter* "I've got one up on all the insiders, the locker room, the fans, and everyone here at ECW."

*placing the title on his shoulder*

"You see, this title comes with a price. A big one. When you're the best wrestler in the whole damn industry you've got a target right on your back. So, I've used some of my "World Champ" perks to make sure that my belt stays right where it belongs." *laughter*

We come back from the break and the action has already started in the ring...

Danny Doring vs Skull Von Crush

Doring with a knee to the gut. Doring hits a hard snap suplex onto the canvas. Goes for the cover. 1 .. kickout. Doring puts Crush into a headlock. Crush pushes Doring into the ropes. Clothesline ducked by Doring. Doring connects with a clothesline of his own. Some kicks to the chest of the lying Crush, and Doring hits the ropes. Fistdrop by Doring. Danny Doring picks up Von Crush but gets hit with a right hand to the stomach. Fallaway slam by Von Crush. The pin only gets a 2 count. Crush complains to the ref as he picks up Doring. Doring goes over the head of Von Crush on his suplex. Wham Bam Thank You Ma'am! 1.2.3

Winner: Danny Doring via pinfall

After the commercial Spike Dudley is making his way around the ring to AC/DC, slapping the hands of fans. He enters the ring ..

Spike Dudley vs Rhino

Spike comes at Rhino hard with rights and lefts to the gut, hardly phasing him. A left from Rhino sends Spike flying. He quickly gets back to his feet and charges at Rhino. A clothesline barely budges Rhino. Spike gets more leverage bouncing off the ropes this time and meets a powerslam by Rhino! Rhino covers Spike but only gets two as he picks up Spike by his hair.

Styles: Oh come on. He's just toying with him now ..

After a brief struggle Rhino goes for a "HYUUUUUGGGEEE" atomic drop, but Spike reverses, running up the turnbuckles for the Acid Drop!

Styles: Huh? ...no. Really?!

1...2...Rhino kicks out after two. Spike is on his feet, half in shock as Rhino comes to his feet. Spike composes himself and goes for a second Acid Drop but is thrown halfway across the ring by Rhino! Rhino is waiting in the corner, lurking as Spike slowly makes his way to his feet. Rhino charges and spears Spike to the mat! Rhino places his hands on Spike's chest as the ref makes the 3 count.

Winner: Rhino via ... death? (pinfall)

Styles: I think .... I think he just broke Spike in two. Yeah, Spike isn't even moving ... someone help.

Backstage Taz is in the locker room with his ECW TV title next to him and a towel over his head. Justin Credible enters the picture...

Justin Credible: That's a nice little chunk of gold you got there. What's it gonna take to get that off your hands?

*lifting his head*

Taz: A helluva lot more than you can spare.

*Credible looks Taz up and down and walks out of view, half smiling*

We come back from commercial while Chris Candido and Lance Storm are making their way to the ring. The F.B.I.'s music hits, and they make their way out to the ring.

Joey Styles: Yeah, Nashville, Italy. IS SMOTHERS EVEN ITALIAN?! God .. and what the hell is with that god damn dance?!

ECW Tag Team Titles

Guido & Tracey Smothers © vs Chris Candido & Lance Storm

Guido and Candido start things up with a lockup. Guido is irish-whipped into the ropes. Leapfrog by Guido. Candido bends over for the backdrop but eats Guido's boot instead. Guido slams Candido and wisely holds onto Chris' arm as he tags in Smothers. Smothers and Guido puts the boots to Candido, which draws Lance Storm from his corner. While the referee tries to stop Storm, Smothers chokes out Candido. The ref turns back to Candido and Smothers, giving Storm the chance to attack Smothers with a boot to the side of the head. Storm backs off to his corner, having given Candido his opportunity to recover. Both men return to their feet and Candido whips Smothers into the turnbuckles. Candido props Smothers on the top turnbuckle, but Tracey Smothers retaliates with a few right hands to send Candido back a few feet. Smothers comes back down and Candido ducks a clothesline. Candido suplexes Smothers. Candido tags in Storm and they get their chance to put the boots to Smothers. Guido gets in the way, only to trade blows with Candido. Guido is sent to the outside by Candido. Storm and Smothers are locked up when Storm lets go. Smothers is grabbed from behind by Candido and Lance Storm connects with Tracey Smothers mouth on a brutal superkick. Chris Candido keeps Guido from coming back to the ring and Lance Storm makes the pin. 1 .. 2 .. 3.

Winners (and new ECW Tag Team Champions): Chris Candido and Lance Storm via pinfall

Candido and Storm celebrate in the ring as the static cuts in, ending the show.

[out of character .. or whatever.]

Well, I guess that could have been better, but it's what I got for now. Matches are harder to write than I thought. I hate sounding repetitive when I write, but in this situation I guess it's sort of out of my hands.

Enjoy, nonetheless.

Now, before I begin I would like to make a few things clear.

Number 1, I am doing this for your entertainment (and to cure my boredom as of late). If you don't like the diary, I can certainly accept your opinion. I'm 100% open to some constructive criticism and will use it to make this diary better. However, flaming and other "B.S" replies will simply be ignored. And While I can obviously do nothing about them, I can assure you, you're just going to look like an asshole.

Numero 2, This diary is not 100% historically accurate as it pertains to ECW in this time period. I don't find this too big of a burden, but some will. So please, bear with me. I'm not sure when my scenario is based, but I'm going to take over in the story as of Dec 1st, 1997. The champions are accurate for the time period. (Although other than Shane Douglas beat Bam Bam for the title, we're kind of going to ignore November 2 Remember 97).

So basically if you're interested in keeping an open mind and just enjoying a different course for ECW through the late 1990's, keep reading. I have a pretty extensive knowledge of ECW from it's infancy to it's prime, so we're not running blind here.

This diary doesn't have much of a back story. We're going to be looking at ECW through the eyes of a fan. The shows will be written almost like a script. There will be dirt sheet reports and interesting news bits throughout. And you'll see I've made a few altercations to the roster.

ECW Hardcore TV

Saturday Nights @ 11:30 PM

Only on America One!

The first Hardcore TV should be in soon

1. A People's History of the United States - Howard Zinn

2. The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde

3. The Family - Mario Puzo

4. American Psycho - Brett Easton Ellis

5. All Quiet on the Western Front - Erich Marie Remarque (I probably butchered his name)

6. 1984 - George Orwell

7. The Iron Heel - Jack London

8. Fool's Die - Mario Puzo

9. Failed States - Noam Chomsky

10. Catch-22 - Joseph Heller

Yeah, twoPuzo works and I've not even read the Godfather. Hell, I've never seen the movies, either.

How about this for numbers ...

Domestic Total as of Nov. 9, 2006: $38,841,865

Worldwide: $59,710,409

Sure doesn't seem all that spectacular. Pretty damn good for most movies, but insane when you consider it only opened in 837 American theatres.

I think this is one of the most impressive:

TOP WEEKEND THEATER AVERAGES

1982-Present

$31,607

3rd Ahead of all Harry Potter releases, X-Men movies, and all Star Wars after 82. Out of the top 25 listed only Farenheit 9/11 opened in less than 1,000 theatres nation-wide. I'm sure no one had any idea Borat would sell this well.

But anyway, I thought the movie was amazing. Probably one of the funniest I have ever seen and surely the "ballsiest". I would reccomend it to anyone.

Pepper - No Shame

Sadly, I hadn't heard of these three guys until this album came out. But, better late than never. A very nice mix of styles.

Check it out if you're into: Sublime, Slightly Stoopid, 311, No Doubt

Top Tracks: "No Control", "Green Hell", "Lost in America", "Nice Time"

I agree, too. Graves was my favorite Misfits singer. I saw him live once in 2002. Very good. I was supposed to see him last December but I went to jail and missed the show. If you're a fan you'll be pumped just for the experience.

The Code

Bouncing Souls

The Ratchets (might be hard to find. but a search on myspace will work. you dont need an account)

Michale Graves (has a new album. sounds like some of his misfits stuff. "Punk Rock is Dead")

The Dead Milkmen

World Inferno/Friendship Society

Blanks 77

Almost anything else worth listening to has been mentioned. If you like a little emo you should check out Bayside. They're awesome. For a little more traditional hardcore check out Label the Traitor.

Big D and the Kids Table are worth checking out no matter what type of music you like. Just do it.

I haven't seen the UK versions. But I'd probably be a little biased to the Scranton version.

Is it a paper company they work for in Slough?

The Office is amazing. I guess it's moving to Thursday now. I actually live in the Scranton where the Office is based in. :-D

As much as I love the Office I think My Name is Earl is better.

The Rose Bowl Game Presented by Citi

USC (12-0)

Penn States D will dominate Florida. Michael Robinson running the option will come bring around 70 yards on the ground just for him. I really don't see Florida State doing much of anything with the ball. The only problem I see if that we're playing in Florida so it's almost like a home game for FSU. But PSU should handle themselves very nicely.

And I think USC v. Texas will just a straight-up shootout. But it's gonna come down to defense. Whoever can stop the other team from scoring that one touchdown is gonna come away with the National Championship. I think USC is better on defense than Texas. But Texas has been putting up points like no other team has this season. USC will step it up and take it, though.

Those are really the only two games I'm interested in, honestly. I can not stand the whole BCS and their computers. And I think having so many bowl games make some of the bigger ones look bad. But oh well. It probably won't change.

I remember seeing an episode with this crazy Chinese (I'm assuming) kid. He was gonna kill himself or his father. Something. Anyway, he tried to get out of the house and they tazered him. He flipped out and then calmed down a bit. As soon as he gets calm he flips out again. It was really funny.

Yeah. Dillinger Escape Plan are fucking insane. Definately the best hardcore band I've ever seen.

God you're lucky. I'd kill to see Catch 22. They wouldn't dare come here though. Streetlight came around and I think the whole valley almost came toppling down. So fucking many kids showed up. I'm sure there'd be nothing left if Catch came to town.

Mmmm. The Hokies put a hurtin' on Boston College. 8-0. Looks like they'll be the team getting screwed by the BCS this year. Would be nice to see a team other than USC in the title game. Not gonna happen, though.

Thanks for the picture. That is awesome. And the concert sounded unreal.

Mmmm. Joe Pa get's 350 wins. And we score 63 points. Really weird considering Paterno is known for not liking to run up the score.

Curtis Enos. Penn State runningback. Got drafted by the Bears. I don't think he even got to play a game but he was great in college. That one just really sticks with me.
