00:00By the end of this TV show, the lives of Sabu, Mr. PPV RVD, Bubba Ray and Devon the Dudley
00:14Boys, Justin Credible, and Lance Storm will all change dramatically.
00:30Xtreme Championship.
00:38We're free.
01:30Hello, everyone, and welcome to Extreme Championship Wrestling.
01:49I'm Joey Styles with a post-event wrap-up from the Bert Flickinger Center in Buffalo,
01:54where we had a sold-out, turn-away crowd, but that's not the big story.
01:58The big story is the State Athletic Commission has confiscated all the footage from all the cameras
02:04of our main event this evening, and that may have some ramifications for Sabu.
02:11We'll explain this later in the hour.
02:13It's unconfirmed.
02:14Unconfirmed.
02:15The State Athletic Commission is trying to decide whether or not to suspend the license to wrestle of Sabu.
02:21If they do, how many other states will that hold up?
02:24All right, we're working on this.
02:25We have to go on with the show.
02:26We're going to try to get you the footage back.
02:28The State Athletic Commission has it right now.
02:30In the meantime, Balls and Axel took on the new and improved FBI earlier tonight.
02:35We do have footage of that matchup.
02:36We'll show that to you.
02:37In the meantime, while we're showing you that matchup,
02:39we're going to try to get some video documentation
02:41in terms of tape or video, digital photos, something,
02:45but we'll go to this matchup now.
02:50A new and improved version of the FBI.
02:53Oh, what an Italian.
02:55Little Guido and Big Sal make their way to the ring here in Rumpalo.
03:01And unlike the previous versions of the FBI,
03:17these two young men are full-blooded Italians.
03:28Doesn't mean they're not a little goofy.
03:29They're just Italians.
03:31Big Sal is eight months.
03:52Guido and Sal have their work put out for those.
03:57And they're important.
03:58They're the blood-letting freaks,
04:04Balls, Mahoney, and Axel Rock.
04:07Some balls-and-axel fans here in Buffalo.
04:28Ho!
04:29belly, and pa-toss,
04:31Froak!
04:32op,
04:33my belly.
04:33He seems so close yet so far to become an ACW World Tag Team champion.
04:51Ladies and gentlemen, our first contest is a tag team attraction.
04:55Scheduled for one fall with a 30 minute time limit.
04:59Your referee is Jim Molyneux.
05:08Introducing first, he hails from Little Chicago and weighs in at 603 pounds,
05:23the Big Salbowski, Sally Graciano!
05:32600 pounds!
05:34His tag team partner this evening,
05:37weighs in at 201 and one quarter pounds,
05:42and hails from the island of Sicily,
05:46the extreme stud, Little Guido!
05:55Together they are known as the FBI!
06:01Their opponents this evening had a combined weight of 635 pounds!
06:13They are the hardcore chair swinging freaks,
06:18Bulls Mahoney and Axl Rotten!
06:24As I was saying, Bulls and Axl still have not been the ECW World Tag Team champion,
06:31although while out of action during the period of internal injuries,
06:35Axl didn't manage Bulls Mahoney and Masako should not be the World Tag Team Championship.
06:41They defeated the Dudley boys who are still, I would say,
06:45the arch nemesis of Bulls and Axl.
06:58I don't think Guido's thinking too many fans are a buckling.
07:10Little Guido obviously is going to have to out quick and out wrestle,
07:14Axl and or Bulls.
07:18Full-blooded Italian!
07:27Fans here in Buffalo, I believe, want to see big South start the match.
07:32Fan!
07:37Fans really getting on the case of the full-blooded Italians.
07:39The Giants!
07:41Giants! Giants!
07:43Giants! Giants!
07:46Giants! Giants!
07:48Giants! Giants!
07:49Despite what the fans wanna see.
07:52Giants! Giants!
07:55Looks like Filippo has his heart set on starting the matchup,
07:58and he will.
08:03Filippo!
08:04Filippo, despite being very young, his mid-20s,
08:08he's gonna have to step up here.
08:10He is older and has more experience than Big Sal.
08:13Guido now the new captain of the full-blooded Italians.
08:27Guido and Axelrod.
08:29Axelrod really rallied the fans.
08:37Could drive Guido crazy.
08:40They finally locked up.
08:41Guido back into the corner.
08:43That is just a spin-axle round.
08:46Will we see a cream break?
08:48Yes, we will.
08:49Guido caught the Axelrod.
08:51Gets the hell out of the ring.
08:54Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido, Guido
09:24And it's quick.
09:29Hammerlock, virtual by Guido.
09:31Actually looking for a way out of the hammerlock.
09:38A very scientific move to the groin.
09:44And a fist to the face down goes to the Guido.
09:48Guido is trying to display his extensive amateur background.
09:54Axl really has no interest.
09:58We want balls, we want balls, we want balls, we want balls, we want balls, we want balls, we want balls, we want balls.
10:09And the fans want the native of Rutland, New Jersey, Balls Mahoney.
10:13But I don't think Axl had enough fun with Guido yet.
10:16Inside headlock now.
10:18Guido shot a little.
10:22Shoulder block down, he goes, lateral press to end up.
10:26We're outweighed by about a hundred pounds.
10:29I think the shoulder block.
10:32Arm ringer.
10:34Here's the kick.
10:36In comes Paul Mahoney.
10:38Guido's on the rise.
10:39From Toho.
10:40From Toho.
10:41And a 300 plus
10:44carol running drop on the back ahead of Guido.
10:48It looks like the fish.
10:50Floundering out of water.
10:52A hand coming up.
11:04Ball took too much time, breaking the ice.
11:07And a slam attempted.
11:10Guido with a go behind.
11:15And a well-timed drop kick.
11:17There's the tag to Big Sal.
11:20And Big Sal was against the weight advantage that Balls in or Axl has over his partner,
11:25Lil Guido.
11:26Ring announcer said that Big Sal tipped in tonight at 600 pounds to make him twice as heavy as either Balls or Axl.
11:51Balls shot down the corner.
11:56Guido and Sal talking strategy.
12:18Shoulder block by Balls Mahoney.
12:20It's quite ineffective against the huge Razziazzi.
12:23Use that chair!
12:24Use that chair!
12:25Use that chair!
12:26Use that chair!
12:27Use that chair!
12:28Use that chair!
12:29Use that chair!
12:30Use that chair!
12:31Use that chair!
12:32Paul Mahoney.
12:33Use that chair!
12:34Trying to figure out a way to sell the big man.
12:35Use that chair!
12:36Use that chair!
12:37The boot to the lower back by Lil Guido.
12:40And a sidewalk flip.
12:43No pinball attempt.
12:57Big Sal wants to work over Balls.
12:59Picks him up with ease.
13:00Picks him up with ease.
13:03Planes him.
13:06Big Sal, a very powerful young man.
13:08In comes the member of the FBI, Lil Guido, too.
13:11Oh!
13:12Guido now going for the cross arm breaker.
13:18Pauls Mahoney wisely locking his hand.
13:23Guido cannot hyperextend his right elbow, but Guido's got it now.
13:28Pauls Mahoney quickly gets to the bottom rope.
13:33Believe it or not, Pauls Mahoney himself, an accomplished high school amateur wrestler,
13:38knew exactly how to negate the cross arm breaker.
13:43Pauls center of the ride, hits hard in the corner.
13:45Guido takes a boot right to the munch.
13:47Nice takedown by Guido.
13:52This time trying to hyperextend the left elbow of Pauls Mahoney.
13:57And Fujiwara armbar.
14:00And drop the leg across the shoulder of Mahoney.
14:08And he checks big sound.
14:10Pauls center of the ride wants to make a tag too far away.
14:14One, two, three, three!
14:16Right slammed by the 600-pounder and a cover that may be all to end.
14:21Right shoulder's up.
14:24Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls,
14:27Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls, Pauls.
14:32And it's rally behind Pauls.
14:33And so the Guido is setting the turnbuckle.
14:34On the shoulders of a 6-foot-8-inch partner.
14:36And it's Poitner, drops the leg and misses.
14:41Paul Fahony has got to make the tag, but he cannot.
14:44He has dragged back into the corner of the full blood
14:47Italians by Big Sound.
14:49Little Guido back to his feet, putting the boots to Mahoney.
14:56Drops an elbow across the knee.
14:59The inner thigh of Mahoney.
15:00Now Guido, chin lock.
15:07Making Mahoney fight for oxygen.
15:11Mahoney up to his feet.
15:16And it's an elbow, making it two.
15:18Third time the charge frees itself,
15:20cuts the clothesline, hoops, frees.
15:22Belly to back suplex.
15:25Goes for the neck of Little Guido,
15:28who has got to make it tag, the big talent.
15:30Paul Fahony makes the tag.
15:31In comes Axelrod, Guido ducks.
15:34Axelrod, take the abendment.
15:40Now goes Little Guido.
15:41Close line.
15:46Big Salad, touch tracker sweet on Little Guido.
15:49Guido wisely walks out of the ring where he cannot be pinned.
15:55Smart thinking by Little Guido, but Paul Fahony goes low on Big Sound.
15:59I don't care how big, all the way.
16:01My God, look at that chair.
16:09A very impressive, decisive victory for the chair swinging freaks.
16:29Balls, Mahoney and Axelrod, who want the ECW World Tag Team Turbo belts.
16:39I got it.
16:41They came in the skull of either Rob Van Dam or Sabu like that.
16:47Who walk out with the belts.
16:48Big Salad, look at that chair.
16:51Big Salad.
16:52Big Salad.
16:53Look at that chair.
16:56Big Salad.
16:58Look at that chair.
17:03Sir, amigo, I, you know, I say things that are a little stupid.
17:06Sir, amigo, I, you know, I say things that are a little stupid.
17:20I didn't mean, you know, you to come out here.
17:24Hey, hey, sir, champ, you know, I would love to wrestle here in this famous arena against
17:45you, and I'm sure I could choke you out in front of all my people.
17:54But you see, this morning, when I was lifting weights, and I had, when I was lifting weights
18:20this morning, and I had 480 pounds on the bench press, I broke my appendix right here.
18:34And you see, I would wrestle you, but as soon as I'm done here, I gotta go to the hospital
18:45and have both of them removed.
18:48So, without further ado, Maestro, hear my man's music.
18:55Here at Cyberslam 99 in the ECW Arena, powerfully Steve Carino has been
19:03confronted by Kaz and is naming a substitute.
19:08Leave it to Carino to weasel his way out of a man's jump after shooting off his big mouth.
19:17Tammy Lynn Sitch and Chris Candida.
19:26I'm sure the music was cute, we thought it was more of Carino's rap, but
19:33it really is Tammy Lynn Sitch and Chris Candida.
19:38.
20:01I think Carino had this plan.
20:08You think Candido and Sitch put him up to this?
20:13This is no accident.
20:16The challenger all over the champion on the outside.
20:20Cash rolled up and over the steel guard.
20:25Candido back in the ring.
20:28Candido climbing the turnbuckles.
20:35Chris Candido launches himself in terror.
20:39In front of us.
20:44Drops the armor, makes the cover.
20:49Two.
20:51He goes on the block, Bob Zell, named after his Beyonce, Sitch at ring top.
20:56Pulling Taz up, Taz is fighting it though.
20:59There's changing shots.
21:01Candido gets crushed.
21:03Taz hooks up.
21:05And there's the head and arm Taz plays from the second turnbuckle.
21:13Candido now given a chain by Tammy Lynn Singh.
21:18He's wrapped around his right fist.
21:21Candido has a chain on his fist.
21:24The referee of Taz never saw him.
21:27Bullseye, down goes Taz.
21:29Four, one, two.
21:37Taz missed it.
21:38One, two, three.
21:40Taz is fighting.
21:41Two years of Sen Bemer.
21:42One, two.
21:43Two years of Sen Bemer.
21:45One, two, three.
21:47Taz, two, four.
21:48Taz!
21:49Taz, two, three.
21:51Taz, two, three.
21:52He is fighting for the first time.
21:58And he dies!
21:59What the hell is he doing?
22:20Why would Taz do this?
22:23Taz stuck with a broken neck.
22:25He knows what it's like.
22:26How could any human being be so completely devoid of compassion?
22:34How could any one man be so good?
22:37He's choking him out.
22:39He's got the cut behind the man Candido.
22:42Why, Taz?
22:43Why?
22:49Chris Candido returned to ECW at Cyberslam 99
22:53with the hopes of becoming the new world heavyweight champion.
22:55Taz had other ideas and tried to end the career of Chris Candido.
23:00Candido has been fitting the halo to stabilize his neck
23:04for the future of his wrestling career.
23:07It's not real.
23:08What we do know right now is that we have no footage of our main event
23:12because the State Athletic Commission has confiscated the tapes
23:16from all of the cameras.
23:18So right now we're talking about Pantheon.
23:19In the meantime, we're trying to put a show together
23:23while waiting for the footage.
23:24We now take it back to Cyberslam 99 for highlights of a matchup,
23:28pitting the debuting Papi Chulo
23:30against the returning Haka Michinoku.
23:33Haka Michinoku here tonight makes his Extreme Championship Wrestling debut.
23:43In front of perhaps the most demanding wrestling event anywhere in the world.
23:49And the ECW Arena in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
23:58American wrestling fans are familiar with Papi Chulo.
24:11He is under the microscope here tonight.
24:16And the familiar face returns to ECW,
24:21Taka Michinoku.
24:24Haka, no stranger to ECW at all.
24:52Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the corner to my right,
25:04weighing it tonight at 195 pounds,
25:09from Olusco, Mexico,
25:12introducing Papi Chulo!
25:22And his opponent, weighing it tonight at 185 pounds,
25:28from Moriata, Japan,
25:31introducing Taka Michinoku!
25:41Knife-inch shot by Taka.
25:43Lighting up the chest of Papi Chulo.
25:48God damn it, got it.
25:53I'm gonna try to block the last one.
25:58Rea Bruce in the midsection, now climbing the ropes.
26:01What unbelievable balance takes over Taka Michinoku,
26:05spinning heel kick.
26:07And going to the midsection, the stern and chest.
26:19Lance Michinoku, Papi Chulo would love a win in this ECW game.
26:23You'll hear on television, no less.
26:25No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
26:28This is the 450 square.
26:30And Taka capitalized.
26:37It's crutched.
26:41And Papi Chulo takes him over with the hood and top right.
26:44He said he's going for the Tornado DDT.
26:51He strikes Papi Chulo, says that's off,
26:55another chance with the leg.
26:56No, he can't only.
27:01Kaka, Kaka, Kaka, Kaka, Kaka, Kaka.
27:05Kaka, Kaka, Kaka, Kaka.
27:09Aka Michinoku stomping away and Papi Chulo
27:14grabs a knee into the face, uppercut.
27:18Aka opening up, full-headed speed.
27:24Kaka Michinoku's back drop all the way to the floor.
27:29Keep your eye on Papi Chulo.
27:31No, he takes an elbow and a forearm right in the face.
27:36Very well-timed drop kick.
27:42Aka hooking Papi Chulo, this time gets thrown off.
27:48Papi Chulo is setting the turnbuckles all the way up top.
27:53It's the missile drop kicks and he's tacked it to the outside.
27:57Papi Chulo with the cybersault plunge-up.
28:03Papi Chulo with the cybersault plunge-up.
28:10Papi Chulo with the cybersault plunge-up.
28:15Papi Chulo reversal out of the corner.
28:20Leads a foot in the side of the head of Papi Chulo.
28:24String board missile drop kick to the back of the head of Papi Chulo.
28:31Taka misses the moves hook.
28:35Can Papi Chulo put him away?
28:38So come on!
28:41That's it, he said.
28:42Here comes the power bomb.
28:43Taka lands on his feet.
28:45He counters the Huda and Pan Rana and plants Papi Chulo.
28:52Yeah!
28:53Taka cinching up his opponent.
28:57He put it two clicks.
28:59One, two, three.
29:02One, two, three.
29:07One, two, three.
29:14One, two, three.
29:18Welcome back to Extreme Championship Wrestling, Taka Vichinocu.
29:37These digital photos released by ECWWWrestling.com.
29:42Tommy Dreamer and Francine came to the ring to tell the fans that Shane Douglas had been jumped and assaulted in the locker room by Justin Credible and Lance Storm who then came to the ring themselves to confront Tommy Dreamer.
29:55Dreamer tried to protect Francine and was caned.
29:59And then, even worse, Francine herself was caned by Beulah McGillicuddy.
30:05And this Beulah is a bitch.
30:07B-Y-T-C-H.
30:10Several wrestlers came to the aid of Dreamer, including Bowles Mahoney, Jerry Lynn, Super Crazy, and others.
30:16Justin Credible spotted his former opponent in last year's Summer Series, Jerry Lynn at ringside, and called him out.
30:23Jerry Lynn was being double teamed by Justin Credible and Lance Storm, but Super Crazy then vaulted into the ring, making an impromptu tag team matchup.
30:31Jerry Lynn rolled up Justin Credible for the one, two, three.
30:36An upset scored by Jerry Lynn and Super Crazy, but then the Dudley boys attacked.
30:43Joel Gertner then told Justin Credible and Lance Storm, we owed you a few bucks, now we're even.
30:49Justin said, no way, we want the world tag team title belts.
30:53We know Van Dam and Sabu in the back.
30:55Bill Alfonso outraged, Justin Credible only made the challenge because Sabu can't wrestle.
31:00He's injured, he's bent.
31:02So it would be Rob Van Dam making his way to the ring to answer the challenge of Lance Storm and Justin Credible,
31:10who want the Dudleys to wrestle and win the belts for them.
31:13Rob Van Dam, ever the fighting champion, wanted to take on both Dudleys by himself.
31:18But referee Jim Molyneux would not allow it.
31:21Therefore Bubba Ray Dudley stepped aside and to take on Devon by herself.
31:26Van Dam answered by front kicking Bubba right above.
31:29So Rob Van Dam was all alone in the ring with Devon Dudley.
31:33When we come back, more on this unbelievable story.
31:37And we're told that the State Athletic Commission is giving us back some of the footage of the main event, at least one camera.
31:44Let's recap what happened because I'm a little confused myself.
31:47Sabu, allegedly unconfirmed, has had his license to wrestle suspended by the State Athletic Commission.
31:56Bill Alfonso had a state-appointed doctor look at Sabu's jaw at the beginning of the evening.
32:01The doctor said he cannot get in the ring.
32:03The jaw is still not healed.
32:04He's got two surgeries to go.
32:06Sabu broke free, was being restrained, got involved in the matchup, got into the ring during the course of the main event.
32:12And now because of that we believe, unconfirmed, the State Athletic Commission has pulled his license to wrestle.
32:18How many other states would recognize that suspension?
32:20The Mike Tyson thing, one state condemns him, you condemn nationally.
32:23That would be a big problem.
32:24When we come back, we'll show you what in the hell happened in the first place.
32:30Devon Dudley, similar rides, foot-legged drop-down by Rob Van Dam.
32:36Now that he's arm dragged.
32:40Spin kick.
32:42First one missed, second one deep knocked down goes Devon.
32:46Devon Dudley finds himself in the familiar role as hired gun or mercenary.
32:56Down he goes again.
32:59Should Devon win this matchup, he and Bubba Ray Dudley would be world tag team champions.
33:05And then according to the deal struck earlier tonight, would turn the belts over to Lance Storm and Justin Predip.
33:13Rob Van Dam working over Devon to the corner.
33:18R-B-D, R-B-D, R-B-D, R-B-D.
33:22Devon with a reversal out of the corner.
33:24Catches the boot, but misses with the right hand.
33:28R-B-D powerbomb at the corner by Devon Dutt.
33:36Last couple of months, Devon Dudley has shed some 35 pounds.
33:43He's down to about 230.
33:45It's hard to tell in the overalls, but he's much quicker.
33:48His endurance is much better.
33:49On the tie-dye fool ya, Devon Dudley is one hell of a wrestler.
33:57A very well-placed elbow.
34:04Devon Dudley now plants a right hand.
34:10As Van Dam by the hair.
34:12Rob Van Dam, check of the ride.
34:15Nice, back elbow.
34:19The floor is Mr. PPV to it.
34:22No.
34:23Right shoulder ups as referee Jim Molino.
34:26See Bubba Ray Dudley lurking on the outside.
34:33This is a singles matchup for the World Tag Team title belts.
34:38Breaking the eyes.
34:41Devon working over Rob Van Dam, who is defending the belts all by himself.
34:46Sabu, of course, benched by Bill Alfonso.
34:51He's got a couple of more surgeries on his draw schedule.
34:55Look at Bubba Ray Dudley in the face of Rob Van Dam.
35:06Right hand, taking two.
35:09Breaking the eyes.
35:15Rob Van Dam's up to the right.
35:20Reversal, Evon hit.
35:23Bumbling splash, Van Dam put the brakes on.
35:27Hangman's neckbreaker from the second curb buckle.
35:33It's a high five from Bubba Ray.
35:37Alfonso wisely pulling Van Dam towards the ropes to end.
35:41Holy shit, holy shit.
35:42And of course, the boot was underneath the bottom rope.
35:46Bill Alfonso may have just saved the World Tag Team title belts.
35:52If Devon Dudley wants to beat Rob Van Dam and win those belts to turn them over to
36:02Just Incredible and Lance Storm, they're benefactors tonight anyway.
36:07He's gotta take Bill Alfonso out of the equation.
36:10They drop down across the throat.
36:15And made the all.
36:17Evon administering last breaks to Van Dam.
36:22Lateral press to Mel Nadavik.
36:26Whoa, what the heck.
36:31.
36:39Lots of Rob Van Dam fans here in Buffalo, New York.
36:43Everywhere across the globe.
36:45Van Damme fires back with a series of front kicks in a roundhouse.
36:54And there's a leaping front kick right to the head.
36:56Van Damme now opening up the corner.
37:01Setting up Devon Dudley.
37:05Devon comes crashing down, nice kick.
37:15Now Van Damme on the offense, scoop and a slam.
37:21Van Damme full head of steel.
37:25Tumbling senton splash.
37:30Cover to the...
37:35Alfonso is coming into the ring to celebrate.
37:41A little premature.
37:43Devon set for the ring, puts on the brakes.
37:46Reverts him, gets the boot up.
37:48Hooks Van Damme, PDT.
37:51Murder lights through play for the bridge.
37:54One count only.
37:56There's the chair from Alfonso.
38:01Laying down the court, Devon.
38:05Split leg and moves all connects.
38:09Devon Terrier in the chair.
38:12But Van Damme took it way in the rib cage.
38:14RBG, RBG, RBG, RBG, RBG, RBG, RBG, RBG.
38:19Molinaw wanted.
38:20Bubba Ray down the over the ring apron.
38:22Bubba Ray close by Molinaw instead of crashing to the canvas.
38:27Van Damme goes for the cover.
38:29We've got no referee.
38:30Or do we?
38:33Down comes AC Huck.
38:38Checking on Molinaw.
38:41Inverted DDT.
38:45This matchup will continue with AC Huck as the new official to it.
38:52Two and a half.
38:59See Joe Gerner and Side Guy Dudley complaining of a slow count on the outside.
39:04I tend to disagree.
39:08Bubba Ray Dudley shouting instructions to his half-brother.
39:12Devon with Van Damme in the corner.
39:18And this is the ride, Van Damme with the reversal.
39:21Devon certainly hits the turnbuckle.
39:23Here comes Van Damme.
39:24Devon, quick enough to get out of the way.
39:27But Van Damme goes downstairs.
39:30Hits a leaping sidekick.
39:32And down goes Devon.
39:34Van Damme up top in one moment.
39:38Hits the five-star broad splash.
39:42No man being honest.
39:44Cover, one, two, and.
39:47Cover, eight, nothing, until they see Huck out of the ring and knock him down.
39:52Running out a referee.
39:54This is getting a little silly quite frankly.
40:00Here comes referee John Kiwi Roy.
40:05As Devon goes downstairs on Rob Van Damme.
40:11Van Damme gets fucked.
40:14And there's a cover to it.
40:20Van Damme very resilient manages to kick out.
40:24How could anyone expect Rob Van Damme to attain for World Tag Team title belts?
40:29But every time he gets Devon in trouble.
40:31Rob Van Damme,
40:33always a fighting champion, but he scratches the better part of Balor.
40:47Maybe he's gonna back down from this one.
40:49Spin kick connects.
40:51The boot catches Devon right on the point of the jaw.
40:54Hold that, he's down on the canvas.
41:00D-Von, it seems, crawling towards his corner to make a tag out of hat.
41:08And Bubba are the five-time ECW World Tag Team Champions.
41:14That's a record.
41:15Van Damme muscling D-Von, who looks like a rag doll.
41:23There's a kick right to the nose for good measure.
41:27There's Alfonso with the steel chin.
41:32Tom Rob Van Damme coming up.
41:35Yes.
41:39That may be all for D-Von.
41:42Rob Van Damme has got to make the cover.
41:45Van Damme can cover D-Von.
41:47He will attend the World Tag Team Championship.
41:50Good.
41:52And now Bubba drops an elbow on Peewee.
41:56The ground referee.
41:58Bubba Ray Dudley in now.
42:03Plays both boots in the back with Rob Van Damme recklessly the shoulder blades.
42:09And Van Damme is fighting an uphill battle.
42:16Now having to defend himself against both Bubba Ray and D-Von Dunn.
42:21Sabu, Sabu, Sabu, Sabu.
42:24Here's a Bubba slam.
42:26Sabu being restrained in the back, having to watch this on the monitor.
42:31Here's a splash.
42:32Two.
42:33And Van Damme gets the right shoulder up.
42:36The Dudleys have no idea how to finish off Rob Van Damme.
42:45It's not a position anyone wants to be in.
42:50Diving head cut to the Tether Regis.
43:03That should be all for Van Damme.
43:07Van Damme reaching out for the ropes.
43:09And manager Bill Alfonso gets chased away by Bubba Ray.
43:13Van Damme is limp.
43:20Belly to back Suplex with a hanged neck breaker.
43:24We're about to see new World Tag Team Champions as well.
43:28Van Damme gets the right shoulder up again.
43:31They're gonna have to knock Rob Rian Damme out and
43:38cover his unconscious body if they wanna win the World Tag Team title.
43:42And then hand them over to Just Incredible and Nate Storm.
43:47The fans again chanting for Rob Van Damme's partner, Sabu,
44:00who is being restrained in the back.
44:02Green D coming up, no.
44:05Van Damme plants the knee and counters.
44:08There's a chair.
44:09Van Damme on Bubba Ray Dudley.
44:13Bubba Ray Dudley taken out of the equation.
44:16Van Damme has to cover Devon Dudley.
44:20Van Damme has a very slim chance of sneaking out of Buffalo.
44:27Still one half of the World Tag Team Champions.
44:31It's Lance Storm.
44:32It's Lance Storm.
44:33Lance Storm is just incredible now down to the ring.
44:35Lance Storm watches Rob Van Damme.
44:38Viva now up top with Van Damme.
44:48Three did he.
44:50Dudley, death row from the top.
44:52Here comes Sabu to make the save.
44:54He gets King.
44:55He gets King.
44:56We've got new champions.
44:57We've got new champions.
44:58We've got new champions.
44:59We have got new World Tag Team Champions.
45:02And for the sixth time, New World Tag Team Champions.
45:09The women and the women, the women.
45:16The tie-dye mercenaries did what they set out to do.
45:20What they were paid to do by Lance Storm is just incredible.
45:24And they will now, they will now forfeit those title belts to the new champions,
45:32just incredible and Lance Storm.
45:35What an unbelievable turn of events here in Buffalo.
45:47And now look at Lance Storm just kicking his shots,
45:50he's dropping the elbows on Rob Van Damme, who was taken out by it.
45:563D the Dudley Death Drop from the top turnbuckle.
46:02And the Dudley Boys with the World Tag Team title straps.
46:06Tending to be a familiar scene here at ECW.
46:10But their sixth title ring will be the shortest.
46:12Next, Sabu now back to his feet.
46:14Sabu Boy after everybody.
46:16Nailing Lance Storm.
46:17He nailed the Dudley Boys.
46:19Sabu has seen enough.
46:20Sabu wants a piece of everybody.
46:22Sabu takes the king right across the back of the head.
46:27Bill Alfonso takes it between the eyes.
46:29Let's take another look at the Dudley Death Drop from the top turnbuckle.
46:38Rob Van Damme is going up top to finish off T-Bar.
46:41Lance Storm has watched Mr. PTV.
46:44The Dudley Boys very quick to capitalize.
46:48Always the opportunists.
46:50Setting up Van Damme who endured so much punishment during the course of the match.
46:54Look at that.
46:563D from the top.
46:58Sabu runs down to save his partner.
47:01Against Kane and now the handing over of...
47:05They're keeping the belt.
47:07The Dudleys have double-crossed Just Incredible and Lance Storm.
47:12.
