00:05:46...
00:05:54This is a dream.
00:06:27This is a dream.
00:07:03This is a dream.
00:07:19This is a dream.
00:07:24This is a dream.
00:07:27This is a dream.
00:07:54This is a dream.
00:08:03This is a dream.
00:08:11This is a dream.

00:08:50This is a dream.
00:08:54This is a dream.
00:09:45This is a dream.
00:09:46This is a dream.
00:10:05This is a dream.
00:10:34This is a dream.
00:10:38This is a dream.
00:10:51This is a dream.
00:10:52This is a dream.
00:10:54This is a dream.
00:11:22This is a dream.
00:11:41This is a dream.
00:11:46This is a dream.
00:12:19This is a dream.
00:12:25This is a dream.
00:12:28This is a dream.
00:12:28This is a dream.
00:12:30This is a dream.
00:12:33This is a dream.
00:12:34This is a dream.
00:12:45This is a dream.
00:12:50This is a dream.
00:13:05This is a dream.
00:13:11This is a dream.
00:13:16This is a dream.
00:13:28This is a dream.
00:13:32This is a dream.
00:13:34This is a dream.
00:13:34This is a dream.
00:13:35This is a dream.
00:13:35This is a dream.
00:13:39It's a dream.
00:13:40That was pure instinct on Just Incredible's part.
00:13:47Great move.
00:14:12I've seen him in other places operate before he came here and got such bad press.
00:14:16I knew he had more to offer.
00:14:18And he's taking advantage of the opening here in Extreme Championship Wrestling.
00:14:22Well, it wouldn't have been the first time ECW showed the know-it-alls better.
00:14:31He's well under 40 years old.
00:14:33Recently celebrated his 24th birthday.
00:14:36He's got a lot of years left in this sport.
00:14:39Jerry Lim down at the corner.
00:14:46Jason now holding a chair in front of Jerry Lim's hit.
00:14:54You can see and hear that that was no cheap chair shot.
00:14:58That thing hit the bullseye.
00:15:02And now the head hits the steel chair as well.
00:15:05That may be.
00:15:06Oh, no!
00:15:08Jerry Lim gets the left shoulder up.
00:15:11As Francine predicted, the entourage didn't get involved.
00:15:16Jason holding a chair to the skull of Jerry Lim.
00:15:22And give John Finnegan credit.
00:15:24He went right to the entourage and put them back in their place.
00:15:31It's a straight right hand.
00:15:38Jerry Lim.
00:15:39Jerry Lim.
00:15:39Jerry Lim.
00:15:39Jerry Lim to the outside.
00:15:40Right into the hands of Nicole Bass.
00:15:42And there's Jason.
00:15:43Tastity running interference with John Finnegan.
00:15:50Jason kicking the ribs in the face.
00:15:52Right in the face.
00:15:58That monster, that whatever she is.
00:16:00It's Nicole Bass and Jason doing the damage to Jerry Lim on the outside.
00:16:05You can call her what you want.
00:16:07I'll tell you what she is.
00:16:08A fat.
00:16:10Jerry Lim fighting back, though.
00:16:15And Jason with another cheap shot.
00:16:17There's a thumb to the eye.
00:16:19That has been the M.O. of Justin.
00:16:21He gets it.
00:16:23He otherwise interferes.
00:16:28All that matters is at the end of the night,
00:16:29you get your hand raised.
00:16:31And Justin Credible has had his hand raised
00:16:33quite a hell of a lot here in ECW.
00:16:40Justin Credible with a fist and a cup full of beer
00:16:43adding insult to injury.
00:16:52And both athletes back in the ring.
00:16:56I love it.
00:16:57Justin Credible does the damage outside.
00:16:59Knows he can't beat Jerry Lim outside.
00:17:01Knows him inside.
00:17:02This is where he'll capitalize.
00:17:10Irish Whip is reversed out of the corner.
00:17:12Upside.
00:17:13All the time.
00:17:14Look, close line is good.
00:17:17Jerry Lim got caught.
00:17:21Just incredible.
00:17:22Now slowly ascending the turnbuckle.
00:17:25Going all the way up top.
00:17:27He's perched.
00:17:28He's waiting for Jerry Lim.
00:17:32And he got caught him over the double X handle
00:17:35and got flapjacked.
00:17:36You see, you stay to your game plan.
00:17:38Justin Credible has not made his mark here
00:17:40by flying around the ring.
00:17:41And he made a mistake by going up top.
00:17:43Jerry Lim's the flyer in these two.
00:17:46There's the sidewalk slam out of nowhere.
00:17:50Instinct and desperation.
00:17:51There's a cover to Knuck.
00:17:55Jerry Lim gets the left shoulder up.
00:18:03And now it's Justin Credible riding Jerry Lim.
00:18:07Very fundamental wrestling hold.
00:18:09Justin Credible basically giving himself a breather.
00:18:13While conversely, Jerry Lim is fighting for each and every breath.
00:18:18That is as fundamental as wrestling is.
00:18:21You're exactly right.
00:18:23Look at the difference on their face.
00:18:25Justin Credible is expending Knicks to no energy.
00:18:28But look at Jerry Lim's face.
00:18:30And says it all.
00:18:32Knicks is turning.
00:18:33What?
00:18:42Fans getting out of the case of Jason
00:18:44and the rest of Justin Credible's entourage.
00:18:48Jerry Lim trying to fight up to his feet.
00:18:51Scalvo.
00:18:52Take it two.
00:18:54Tribeca breaks the hole.
00:18:56Nice sunset.
00:18:57Let's get him over.
00:18:58No.
00:18:58Justin Credible drops down.
00:19:00Jerry Lim hooks the legs.
00:19:01Two.
00:19:01The other way.
00:19:02No.
00:19:03Nice roll through.
00:19:05Bridge by Jerry Lim.
00:19:10Tiger bomb.
00:19:12Justin Credible planted to it.
00:19:13No.
00:19:15That was close.
00:19:18Jerry Lim's impressive tonight.
00:19:19He's reaching down deep inside for that last reserve of energy
00:19:22to give that power bomb.
00:19:26This is a crucial matchup to both athletes live on pay-per-view.
00:19:42Do you see how Jerry Lim had his legs spread?
00:19:45He's only about 220 pounds or so.
00:19:48But by spreading the legs, he makes it seem like 240 pounds, 250 pounds,
00:19:53making it more difficult for Justin Credible to kick out.
00:19:56Fantastic observation.
00:20:01Side slam.
00:20:08Justin Credible planted in the center of the ring.
00:20:10Now it's Jerry Lim going up top.
00:20:13As the champ pointed out, Jerry Lim, a high flyer in this matchup.
00:20:17He was going for a good hand, gone run, and got caught.
00:20:20This baby off.
00:20:21No.
00:20:23Jerry Lim is so resilient.
00:20:27Something worth mentioning here that people can't tell at home.
00:20:29This building is scorching inside.
00:20:31These guys are under the hot television lights.
00:20:33They've got to be getting tired by this point.
00:20:38Absolutely.
00:20:39Justin Credible now with the steel chair.
00:20:44Justin Credible looking to finish off Jerry Lim.
00:20:52Irish whip.
00:20:54No.
00:20:54It's a midsection.
00:20:56No.
00:20:58Team, team.
00:20:59Justin Credible gets spiked on the steel chair.
00:21:02Can Jerry Lim capitalize?
00:21:03He crawls over.
00:21:04He makes the lateral press.
00:21:06Two.
00:21:06And Chastity drapes the foot of Justin Credible across the fight.
00:21:11This crowd doesn't like it, but it saved Justin Credible off a pin.
00:21:15It was effective.
00:21:17The crowd should shut up and pay attention.
00:21:22Well, we have a slight difference of opinion.
00:21:24I don't know how Justin Credible could hold his head up high if he wins a matchup with the
00:21:28help of his entourage.
00:21:30That body drop.
00:21:32Justin Credible landed on his feet, but found his foot snap down across the top rope.
00:21:39He has no gift.
00:21:45What kind of table?
00:21:47What was he doing?
00:21:53He almost jibbered.
00:21:57Oh my God.
00:22:12Jerry Lim and Justin Credible know this is the last of the series of these great matches.
00:22:17They're pulling out all the stocks and placing their bodies on the line.
00:22:22Jerry Lim sacrificing his own well-being in an attempt to knock Justin Credible out.
00:22:28Those athletes very slow getting up off the concrete floor.
00:22:37Justin Credible thrown back in.
00:22:40Jerry Lim follows.
00:22:42Lateral press.
00:22:46Jason with the steel chair.
00:22:48Chastity running at her beards.
00:22:49Enough is enough.
00:22:50This is...
00:22:52Jerry Lim with the boot to the midsection.
00:22:57Tiger bomb on Jason.
00:22:59You do see Jason's head snap off that mat.
00:23:02That's what he did for getting it bombed.
00:23:04Nicole Bass now, the master of the cheers, cheap shots on Jerry Lim.
00:23:10Fire on his carry.
00:23:12Oh, as I didn't say, fire on it.
00:23:15Jerry Lim wriggles free.
00:23:17What kind of looks?
00:23:19Don't tell me otherwise.
00:23:20I don't care what you are.
00:23:23I don't care what you are.
00:23:24I don't care what you are.
00:23:26It's the old chair across the back.
00:23:28Look, is this little girl kidding me?
00:23:33Oh, look.
00:23:34Look, the Credible is up behind him.
00:23:35Jerry Lim's lost it.
00:23:37Chastity running interference.
00:23:41Did you see that?
00:23:42Chastity just kicked Justin Credible.
00:23:44Right in the clutch.
00:23:46Jerry Lim, late, great timing.
00:23:50There's nobody to make a save now.
00:23:52Chastity is in trouble.
00:23:54Do so.
00:23:56And I don't consume violence against women.
00:23:59But that little pain in the ass has been asking for all summer long.
00:24:03He's been asking for it all summer long.
00:24:05Easy enough, easy enough, easy enough, easy enough, easy enough, easy enough.
00:24:12And Jerry Lim capitalized.
00:24:14Just incredible.
00:24:15Now burst on the top turnbuckle.
00:24:17Jerry Lim going up top.
00:24:18He got caught.
00:24:21What the hell?
00:24:24That's incredible from the top.
00:24:28Here we go.
00:24:29It does.
00:24:30Here we go.
00:24:33Justin Perrable.
00:24:36That move, when your feet are on the mat, is a very dangerous move.
00:24:40Coming off the top rope, he may have stabbed Jerry Lim's neck.
00:24:52Jerry Lim is laid out.
00:24:55As the champion pointed out, we don't know what kind of condition he's in.
00:25:00That was a tombstone file driver from the top turnbuckle.
00:25:04That has to compress all the vertebrae in the spine.
00:25:11Let's set the record straight.
00:25:13With help from his entourage, Justin Perrable gets a victory over Jerry Lim.
00:25:21The key word in that sentence, Joey, is victory.
00:25:24And it goes to Justin Perrable.
00:25:32Man, aren't Jerry Lim.
00:25:38Well, at least Jerry's moving his legs.
00:25:40That's a good sign.
00:25:42And unfortunately, the entourage seems to be okay as well.
00:25:46That's a head sign.
00:25:51Let's see how this matchup between Chris Candido and Lance Storm came about.
00:26:03Chris Candido and Lance Storm were quite possibly the most technically proficient tag team
00:26:11that ECW has ever had the honor of promoting as the world tag team champion.
00:26:19They took on all comers.
00:26:22They backed down from no team.
00:26:26Candido and Storm did everything within their power
00:26:30to elevate the world tag team titles to unheard of heights
00:26:35until they ran up against the suicidal, homicidal, genocidal,
00:26:41deptifying tag team of Sabu and Mr. Monday Night, Rob Van Dam,
00:26:47who beat Candido and Storm for the Belts,
00:26:50sending Storm, a protege of Stu Hart's dungeon,
00:26:54into an inexplicable temper tantrum.
00:26:57Storm smacked Chris Candido on his headgear
00:27:01that was protecting his left ear
00:27:04that was ripped off of his head
00:27:07by Sabu and Van Dam in Boston, Massachusetts.
00:27:10Storm walked out on his tag team partner
00:27:14at the world infamous ECW Arena
00:27:18in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
00:27:21Candido fell victim once again
00:27:23to Sabu and Van Dam.
00:27:26Lance Storm has made a stand.
00:27:28He double-crossed Candido,
00:27:30and tonight he faces the music.
00:27:36Here comes the former prospect
00:27:38of your Triple Threat,
00:27:41a graduate of Stu Hart's dungeon,
00:27:45Lance Storm.
00:27:47He's developed quite a personality, actually.
00:27:50Well, the architect created the Triple Threat for that.
00:27:52Before, he was vanilla.
00:27:54Now he's full of flavor.
00:27:55Jerry's, he heard from Lance Storm,
00:27:57has every reason to thank the Triple Threat
00:27:59by turning his back.
00:28:00I vote for the Candido for Candido.
00:28:02Tonight presents
00:28:04It Belongs to Candido.
00:28:27Are you kidding me?
00:28:30You knew about this.
00:28:32You're getting good.
00:28:32I knew about it.
00:28:34What a cool King.
00:28:35Candido has pulled off.
00:28:37He's got his fiance.
00:28:41Tamara in sick.
00:28:43Hey, coming from somebody who knows,
00:28:46I can tell you,
00:28:47it ain't a bad thing
00:28:48to have a great set of boots
00:28:50and a great ass out there next to you.
00:28:52And hey, let's just face it,
00:28:54just like Francine,
00:28:55she has the ass that she needs
00:28:57to be successful.
00:28:59And also,
00:28:59the most important thing,
00:29:01hey,
00:29:01she's got a great job.
00:29:06What a cool Candido has pulled off,
00:29:09bringing Tammy to Inwave 98.
00:29:13And I just noticed something
00:29:15how far being for me
00:29:16is to stir the cup.
00:29:17But the reason these two
00:29:18weren't getting along
00:29:19to begin with
00:29:20is because Candido
00:29:22thought that
00:29:23Lance Storm had eyes
00:29:25for Tammy
00:29:25and vice versa.
00:29:29More needs to be said, Zoe.
00:29:31She says it all.
00:29:32Sure, they're playing
00:29:33tonsil hockey now,
00:29:34but she's wearing
00:29:35Storm's colors.
00:29:39Oh, just a coincidence.
00:29:42There's no such thing
00:29:43as a coincidence
00:29:44in this business.
00:29:52Ladies and gentlemen,
00:29:54an introduction
00:29:55from Calgary,
00:29:58Alberta, Canada,
00:30:00weighing tonight
00:30:01at 236 pounds,
00:30:05Lance Storm!
00:30:15And his opponent
00:30:17from Spring Lake.
00:30:24I let Bob Ortiz do his job.
00:30:27You know,
00:30:28I think everybody here,
00:30:29Mr. Ortiz,
00:30:30thinks that I can do this
00:30:31better than you can.
00:30:35From Spring Lake,
00:30:36New Jersey,
00:30:37or anywhere,
00:30:38I'll beat damn well,
00:30:39please,
00:30:40is...
00:30:41weighing 240
00:30:43of the hardest pounds
00:30:45I've ever felt.
00:30:50He is Mr.
00:30:52No-gimmicks,
00:30:53Niggicks,
00:30:54Chris Cannadino!
00:30:59He's been in the shape.
00:31:01He's been looking
00:31:01up hard.
00:31:02He wants Lance Storm's ass.
00:31:06He's got an Achilles heel
00:31:09from the side of his head.
00:31:10It's that ear.
00:31:10That ear was torn off
00:31:12by Savu and Van Damme
00:31:13in Boston, Massachusetts.
00:31:15He's had plastic surgery done.
00:31:17The ear has been reattached.
00:31:20But every time you smack
00:31:21that headgear,
00:31:22it's got an echo
00:31:23in your head.
00:31:24We have got an old-fashioned
00:31:25grudge match
00:31:26between the former
00:31:27ECW World Tag Team Champions.
00:31:32Niggino tied up
00:31:33in the corner.
00:31:36Clean break by Lance Storm.
00:31:38Maybe it's not a grudge match.
00:31:40Who knows?
00:31:41Maybe these two
00:31:41are getting along again.
00:31:43Maybe it's just a match
00:31:44between two great sportsmen.
00:31:47Oh, and I'll go tie up.
00:31:50Lance Storm back into the corner.
00:31:52Will we see a clean break
00:31:53reciprocated?
00:31:54Yes, we will.
00:31:55There's a boot
00:31:56to the midsection.
00:31:57As I said,
00:31:58this is an old-fashioned
00:31:59grudge match.
00:32:00Total block by Lance Storm.
00:32:01Dropped down by Candido.
00:32:03Leap troc.
00:32:04Right hand.
00:32:07Reversal on the Irish win.
00:32:08Dropped down by Candido.
00:32:11Leap troc,
00:32:12but Candido got caught
00:32:13with a spinning heel kick
00:32:14right in the must.
00:32:16Candido's got that
00:32:17dazed look on his face.
00:32:23Nice one.
00:32:25And he's jumped.
00:32:35He just smacking the
00:32:37living heel out of this jump.
00:32:46Candido's turn to the right.
00:32:47Here comes Storm.
00:32:48Closed line.
00:32:48Nowhere for Candido to go.
00:32:51Elbow to the sternum.
00:32:53Drum kick right to the nose.
00:32:59Oh my God.
00:33:01He took off the head gear.
00:33:03It's the left ear of Candido's.
00:33:04It looks fine
00:33:05because he's had
00:33:05plastic surgery done.
00:33:07But that ear was just
00:33:08reattached.
00:33:09Nice leverage move
00:33:10by Candido.
00:33:13I can assure you that
00:33:15that ear is in
00:33:16not in great shape.
00:33:17Chris Candido
00:33:18while we've been
00:33:19sparring getting ready
00:33:19for this match
00:33:20complained about
00:33:21the pain of the ear
00:33:21all week long.
00:33:23Without the protective
00:33:23ear covering
00:33:24he might be in bad shape here.
00:33:26You might see that ear
00:33:27come off live
00:33:28on pay-per-view.
00:33:29Hey Lance Storm
00:33:30went to the ear once before.
00:33:32He'll do it again
00:33:33if he has to.
00:33:35Candido
00:33:36all the way
00:33:37to the floor
00:33:38baby
00:33:38now Lance Storm.
00:33:41Tammy loves it.
00:33:43He's up.
00:33:44He's up.
00:33:45He's up.
00:33:46He's up.
00:33:47He's up.
00:33:48He's up.
00:33:49He's up.
00:33:50Lance Storm
00:33:51gets the steal.
00:33:57Lance Storm
00:33:58coming back in.
00:34:02Andy no follows.
00:34:07Snapman takes Storm
00:34:08over.
00:34:09And O'Quest.
00:34:10One count on.
00:34:15Candido
00:34:16surfboards the arms.
00:34:17Having Tammy around
00:34:18has had Chris
00:34:19in a great
00:34:20confident mood
00:34:21all week long.
00:34:22Having her at ringside
00:34:23has certainly
00:34:24got to be a plus
00:34:24in his game plan.
00:34:26Let's go.
00:34:30Let's go.
00:34:31Let's go.
00:34:31Let's go.
00:34:34Interesting dropkick
00:34:34by Lance Storm.
00:34:36Almost a mule kick.
00:34:38Reversal on the
00:34:38Irish whip.
00:34:40Here's a trip
00:34:41by Tammy.
00:34:44But Lance Storm
00:34:45launches his legs
00:34:46right in the face.
00:34:49Lance Storm
00:34:50has a whole new
00:34:50attitude here
00:34:51at ECW.
00:34:52He's not going to
00:34:52stand for this.
00:34:53He's had enough
00:34:53of Tammy.
00:34:55Long five.
00:34:56Down goes Candido.
00:34:58Oh.
00:34:59Oh.
00:35:01Oh.
00:35:01Oh.
00:35:01Oh.
00:35:03Running Tiger Bomb.
00:35:08Lance Storm
00:35:09planted Candido.
00:35:10Pulls the leg
00:35:10off the ropes.
00:35:11Hooks it in.
00:35:12Two and a half.
00:35:14Did you see
00:35:14the intelligence
00:35:15of what Candido did?
00:35:16He could have
00:35:16pulled the inside leg
00:35:18but instead
00:35:18he pulled the leg
00:35:19closest to the ropes
00:35:20making it more difficult
00:35:21making Lance Storm
00:35:22expend energy
00:35:23to kick out.
00:35:24It's very elementary.
00:35:26Nice and
00:35:27Nice and
00:35:28Nice and
00:35:28Nice and
00:35:29Nice and

00:36:16What she's
00:36:16doing by
00:36:17screaming out
00:36:17there is
00:36:18supporting Lance
00:36:19Storm's attention.
00:36:20He now has
00:36:20to think
00:36:20about two
00:36:21people
00:36:21instead
00:36:21of one.
00:36:23Beautiful
00:36:24thrust kick
00:36:25on the part
00:36:25of the jaw.
00:36:27That was
00:36:27close.
00:36:28It doesn't
00:36:28get much
00:36:29closer than
00:36:29that.
00:36:30Candido got
00:36:30the shoulder
00:36:31up off the
00:36:31canvas
00:36:32just barely.
00:36:34You'll never
00:36:34pin.
00:36:35Remember the
00:36:35triple threat
00:36:36without
00:36:36pinning those
00:36:37shoulders.

00:36:49Lance Storm

00:37:31minute.
00:37:35Lance Storm
00:37:35dropped.
00:37:37Ribs first
00:37:38across the
00:37:38top rope.
00:37:39Well,
00:37:40that rope
00:37:40is actually
00:37:41a steel
00:37:41cable.
00:37:46At this
00:37:47point in the
00:37:47match,
00:37:48like I said
00:37:48earlier,
00:37:49it's hot

00:37:49building,
00:37:50you're

00:37:52steel
00:37:52cable,

00:38:43their
00:38:43reason.
00:38:44God
00:38:55Now he's thinking.
00:38:57It'll make your eyes tear up, even I know that.
00:39:05There's a slugfest.
00:39:08Four-arm landed.
00:39:10You need no ducks.
00:39:11Go to Stork.
00:39:13Simultaneous right hands.
00:39:18Oh, nice cover.
00:39:19One press to button.
00:39:21Two and a half.
00:39:25Candido is uncannier the way.
00:39:27He knows where he is in the ring at all times.
00:39:37Candido got caught.
00:39:38He took too much time.
00:39:45Superflex, perhaps.
00:39:51What impact.
00:39:55Landstorm now looking to follow up.
00:39:57Goes up top.
00:40:03Spinning heel kick finds Lamar.
00:40:06That should be all.
00:40:07No.
00:40:12Give Candido credit.
00:40:15He'll get his shoulder above the canvas.
00:40:27The longer Candido stays on his back in this match, looking at the lights on the arena.
00:40:31He's going to find himself pinned soon if he doesn't mount some offense.
00:40:35Like that.
00:40:38Springboard into a power slam.
00:40:40Quick thinking by Candido.
00:40:42Two and a half.
00:40:49Storm tip of the rock.
00:40:51Great spring.
00:40:53Springs backward.
00:40:55Back elbow connects.
00:40:56Takes his kick.
00:40:59Timmy just made that bad bump.
00:41:01Just in the power of Candido.
00:41:04And he takes it right in the arms.
00:41:08Is it fair?
00:41:10Candido just caught referee Jim Molino.
00:41:13Leaping sidekick.
00:41:15Forget about it.
00:41:16That should be all.
00:41:21Timmy now slides.
00:41:22Did I wish he'd find her own damn business?
00:41:26Oh, see that?
00:41:27See that?
00:41:34Axe, what an interesting one.
00:41:36For a split second, Joey, I thought you might have been right.
00:41:39And then I knew.
00:41:41Did you get it?
00:41:42Wait.
00:41:47Candido, schoolboy Molino had his hands up.
00:41:51Timmy.
00:41:57Chris Candido now.
00:42:00And he has scored.
00:42:02Oh, I can take the turn.
00:42:04I can't.
00:42:10That's the 5-5 shot.
00:42:12Get the cover, Chris.
00:42:13He named it after Timmy.
00:42:15He got it.
00:42:17The winner.
00:42:18Your winner is...
00:42:20Chris Candido.
00:42:25Chris Candido gets a victory over Lance Storm using a blind bombshell.
00:42:32The passer he named after Timmy.
00:42:34The winner is...
00:42:41The winner.
00:42:49The winner.
00:42:50Just the winner.
00:42:51The winner.
00:42:53The winner.
00:42:54Chris Candido.
00:42:55Hey.
00:42:55Candido has been saying from day one.
00:42:57And he was the packer, carrying Lance Stone on his shoulders to break the stuff the other way around.
00:43:03Tonight, at Heat Wave 98, Candido, along with Sonny, along with Tammy, has proven it.
00:43:15So Chris Candido, fellow Triple Threat member, gets a victory over Lance Storm, their former...
00:43:23What?
00:43:26Parking.
00:43:30Parking lot?
00:43:31What are they talking about?
00:43:31I don't know.
00:43:34Earlier tonight, we did have an incident in the parking lot, and I guess we're going to show that now.
00:43:37I didn't think we were going to show what happened here on the pay-per-view, but...
00:43:42Well, it's out in the open now.
00:43:45Go ahead.
00:43:46Yo, check it out.
00:43:48We're in Dayton, Ohio, right now.
00:43:50You know what I'm saying?
00:43:51And we can't wait to take this pay-per-view to the extreme.
00:43:54I don't care.
00:43:55We can't wait to come back.
00:43:58You know what I'm saying?
00:43:59I don't care.
00:44:00It's the first time we're going to be in.
00:44:02This joint sold out all credit.
00:44:04And you best believe, son, Jack Victor, you get your ass whooped tonight.
00:44:28Hey, we can get this s**t going now.
00:44:33We can get this s**t going now.
00:44:37We ain't got to wait, we ain't got to wait, we ain't got to wait.
00:44:41We ain't got to wait, we ain't got to wait.
00:44:47We ain't got to wait.
00:44:59We ain't got to wait.
00:45:04We ain't got to wait.
00:45:24We ain't got to wait, we ain't got to wait.
00:45:48Back up, back up.
00:45:49Oh my God.
00:45:51Hey!
00:45:52Jack!
00:45:54Back up!
00:45:56Back up!
00:45:57Come on, give me some help!
00:45:58Give me a doctor!
00:46:00Jesus, give me a doctor out here!
00:46:05That wasn't on my format that we were going to show that incident.
00:46:09In the interest of fairness to our fans, as always, we had to show you the incident to
00:46:13explain to you why the weapons match will not happen here on Heat Wave 98.
00:46:18Obviously, New Jack, the original Gangsta, the victim of a premeditated attack by Jack Victory and the Dudley Boys.
00:46:27And again, I'm sorry.
00:46:29In the interest of fairness to our fans, I'll tell you that the weapons match between New Jack and Jack
00:46:34Victory will not happen here tonight at Heat Wave 98.
00:46:37We now continue with what is on my format.
00:46:40Rob Van Dam, one half of the World Tag Team Champions and the World Television Champion, is standing by in
00:46:46the back.
00:46:50Heat Wave 98, baby!
00:46:53Shizaki, Hayabusa, Kimaki, I don't care what your name is, Japanese superstars, but you're going to be a big, bad
00:47:00loser!
00:47:01Zero!
00:47:02Pay-Per-View!
00:47:03Heat Wave 98!
00:47:04It's Mr. Monday Night!
00:47:06Danny and Sabu, that's the superstars!
00:47:09You've got to face tonight, brother!
00:47:10Come on, Ponzi.
00:47:11I mean, we're here.
00:47:12Relax already.
00:47:13We're here because Mr. Monday Night brought us to the top, right?
00:47:17Like I said I was going to you, Sabu.
00:47:19Already worth the money they spent on tonight's pay-per-view event, it's Rob Van Dam, everybody's favorite.
00:47:24And you too, Sabu.
00:47:25And they all want to see Rob Van Dam and you, my partner, Sabu, defend my World Tag Team belts.
00:47:34Hey, these belts are recognized worldwide, brother.
00:47:36The contenders tonight come all the way from Japan.
00:47:39We've got the two top guys from Japan.
00:47:41I curse you!
00:47:43Bless you!
00:47:43They're going to be losers!
00:47:44That's what we're going to call you!
00:47:46From now on, you are losers!
00:47:49Japanese losers!
00:47:50We're the superstars, baby!
00:47:52And that makes me, of course, the winner.
00:47:54After tonight, Rob Van Dam's record is going to be 6-0.
00:47:58Hey, come on, Sabu.
00:47:59Relax.
00:48:00We all know who really won that last match.
00:48:02Hey, it was right down the middle, Daddy!
00:48:05It doesn't make you bad losing to Rob Van Dam.
00:48:07It just makes you like everybody else.
00:48:09Don't worry about it.
00:48:10And tonight...
00:48:11Hakusi!
00:48:12Bless you.
00:48:13And what's the other guy?
00:48:14I don't know, but the Japanese losers!
00:48:16That's their name!
00:48:18Losers!
00:48:18They're going to find out what I'm trying to teach you, Sabu, and what everybody else has
00:48:22I already learned.
00:48:23Rob Van Dam is the whole fucking show!
00:48:27Beep!
00:48:31Beep!
00:48:32Beep!
00:48:34Beep!
00:48:37Beep!

00:48:37Boy, that band name is just so modest!
00:48:40Would you look at this monster!
00:48:44Beep!
00:48:44Beep!
00:48:46Beep!
00:48:46Beep!

00:48:48Beep!
00:48:49Beep!
00:48:56Beep!
00:48:56Monster!
00:48:59And he's made some awesome statements here at ECW!
00:49:03Sometimes he's lasted the matches, but afterwards, like with Masada Tanaka, slamming him over the
00:49:08top rope with a powerbomb down through the table to the concrete floor.
00:49:11Hay!
00:49:12Lose the battle.
00:49:13Win the war!
00:49:16With these two ahead, fight a war!
00:49:21The war between Mike Awesome and his opponent
00:49:25About to make his way to the ring
00:49:27Masato Tanaka
00:49:28Actually began years ago
00:49:30In 1994
00:49:41To be perfectly honest
00:49:43Up until recently
00:49:45Mike Awesome has owned this young man
00:49:49Masato Tanaka
00:49:51Their first ever matchup
00:49:53In singles competition
00:49:55A brand new market hall
00:49:58On August 25, 1995
00:50:00Mike Awesome has destroyed
00:50:03A many years experienced Tanaka
00:50:09For the mark of a great wrestler
00:50:11It's not if you've been destroyed once
00:50:13But if you get back up from that
00:50:14Masato Tanaka has done that
00:50:16And in short time here at ECW
00:50:19Has established a rapport
00:50:20With this tough audience
00:50:22Faster than any star has done
00:50:24In the entire history of ECW
00:50:26Weighing tonight at 295 pounds
00:50:32Mike Awesome
00:50:34And his opponent
00:50:42From Yagawama, Japan
00:50:44Weighing tonight at 236 pounds
00:50:50Masato Tanaka
00:50:56As I was saying earlier
00:50:57Awesome went on to
00:50:59Dominate Tanaka again
00:51:00To unify and win both
00:51:02The Independent World title
00:51:03And the FMW Brax Nuss title
00:51:10But Tanaka did gain a measure of revenge
00:51:12At the Kawasaki Stadium show
00:51:14On September 28th of last year
00:51:16When he beat Mike Awesome
00:51:17And then he has done it again
00:51:19Here at ECW
00:51:20Very recently
00:51:25Great agility by the big man
00:51:27This could be over fast
00:51:28No, two count
00:51:32You can tell he's powerful
00:51:33By looking at him
00:51:34But man, Mike Awesome
00:51:35Just compressed me
00:51:36With that little move
00:51:38Into the midsection
00:51:39At a side headlock
00:51:43Oh, my mother fucker
00:51:50Rocker staying one step ahead
00:51:51Of Mike Awesome
00:51:53Trying to leapfrog
00:51:56Overhead, belly to belly
00:51:58Suplex
00:51:59Awesome is just so powerful
00:52:08Awesome lands on his feet
00:52:11Slingshot shoulder block
00:52:13Tanaka ran right into it
00:52:16Splash by Awesome
00:52:18Two count only
00:52:22One thing about Tanaka
00:52:24That we have seen here
00:52:25In his short stay in ECW
00:52:26Has been that he can absorb
00:52:28An incredible amount
00:52:30Of punishment
00:52:30And come back
00:52:35Clothesline says Tanaka
00:52:36Backwards
00:52:37Into the wall
00:52:37He's crashing
00:52:38Into the timekeeper's table
00:52:43He's seen them
00:52:44He's seen them
00:52:46He's seen them
00:52:48He's seen them
00:52:49He's seen them
00:52:50He's seen them
00:52:50He's seen them
00:52:51He's seen them
00:52:52295 pounds
00:52:53With a toe pain
00:52:55And a suicide dive
00:52:57Tanaka tried to get out of the way
00:52:59Just wasn't nasty
00:53:00Now
00:53:07This humongous
00:53:09Is truly awesome
00:53:14Awesome now
00:53:16Climbing the turnbuckles
00:53:17All the way up top
00:53:18Those animals
00:53:19Decapitates
00:53:20Tanaka
00:53:21Count only
00:53:31Awesome has so many attributes
00:53:33He's huge
00:53:34He's strong
00:53:35He's agile
00:53:36He's quick
00:53:38Oh
00:53:39Tanaka's greatest attribute
00:53:40Is his heart
00:53:44And he's trying to suplex
00:53:45Clock is in
00:53:50Scoop into a power slam
00:53:52Snap the big man over
00:53:56Did you see what I was talking about
00:53:58After that huge
00:53:59Bell-in-the-back suplex
00:54:00Tanaka gets right back up
00:54:03He refuses
00:54:04To be hurt
00:54:05Springboard close line
00:54:15Tanaka gets right back up
00:54:20Turn of attention
00:54:21Turn of attention
00:54:22Elbow in the back
00:54:23What the hell is that
00:54:29Did you see what I was talking about
00:54:36What?
00:54:39What?
00:54:40Mike Lawson went down
00:54:41Like a giant redwood tree
00:54:45Awesome made me out
00:54:48That ramp is 75 feet long
00:54:50And Tanaka used every inch of it
00:54:56Tanaka now perched up top
00:54:59Missile drop kick right to the huge pectoral muscles of Awesome
00:55:03Two and a half
00:55:06Awesome is still with us
00:55:09To cover a guy like Mike Dawson without hooking a leg
00:55:12It sounds so simple but so often overlooked
00:55:15You'll never pin a guy that strong
00:55:17Especially if you're Tanaka's size
00:55:20Tanaka just jumped over the top rope
00:55:24May have been desperation on the part of Mike Dawson
00:55:29Tanaka was lucky to grab hold of that rope
00:55:31Otherwise he'd have smacked himself off that floor
00:55:34And Matt doesn't feel good
00:55:36Notice there's no Matt's out there
00:55:59Down across the kidneys of Mike Dawson with that chair
00:56:11Tanaka back drop up and over the steel guardrail into the first row
00:56:23Is Tanaka just gonna get back in or I'm sorry
00:56:26Is Big Mike Dawson gonna get back in the ring and just take a count
00:56:30I don't think so
00:56:30He doesn't go that way
00:56:32He likes to smash his opponents in a punishment
00:56:57He almost stuck
00:57:00Stuck and stood on the top rope
00:57:04Phenomenal
00:57:05But on the street
00:57:06When he goes like
00:57:07He truly is awesome
00:57:11There's a lot of athletes about 6'7
00:57:136'8
00:57:14300 pounds of this group
00:57:16Who never even leave their feet when they're wrestling
00:57:18I'm not gonna name names
00:57:19But Mike Dawson sails through the air
00:57:21Like a light heavyweight
00:57:23A new breed of wrestler
00:57:25What's up, man?
00:57:28Is he hiding his mother?
00:57:30Mrs. Dawson?
00:57:33Awesome
00:57:34No
00:57:38Tanaka kicks out
00:57:39Awesome was negligent there
00:57:40He had him in a pinning combination
00:57:42Had he hooked the thighs and rolled his massive body forward
00:57:44There's no way Tanaka could have kicked out
00:57:50That'll take the wind out of him
00:57:52But did it take the wind out of Tanaka?
00:58:01Big Man again going up top
00:58:02He looked so natural up there
00:58:08Awesome splash
00:58:10Two and a half
00:58:14Tanaka showing that fighting heart
00:58:19And it's endearing him
00:58:20To the fans here at ECW
00:58:22In his very short tenure here
00:58:29Think man's got a chair
00:58:31Think man's got a chair
00:58:33Think man's got a chair
00:58:40Get up
00:58:41Get up
00:58:45Awesome is getting up
00:58:45Awesome is gonna cave in the skull of Masato Tanaka
00:58:48Move to the midsection
00:58:49Awesome slides
00:58:51Ducks the clothesline
00:58:54Look at the chair
00:58:55Forget about it
00:58:56It's over
00:58:57No
00:58:59What hurt
00:59:00What hurt by Tanaka
00:59:02He will not stay down
00:59:03He refuses to stay down
00:59:05What can you do to hurt this man?
00:59:09Mike Mossom damn near destroyed that steel chair on the skull of Masato Tanaka
00:59:15Tanaka refuses to lose
00:59:23There's a running release
00:59:25Awesome bomb
00:59:26Mike Awesome telling everyone here
00:59:29In the Arrow Arena
00:59:31That he's going to awesome bomb Tanaka through the table on the outside again
00:59:35The same way he did it in Queens, New York City
00:59:39He's making a mistake
00:59:41Tanaka is down in the ring
00:59:42Why not try to pin him?
00:59:44The game
00:59:48They're on a live pay per view
00:59:53Mike Awesome
00:59:54Appearance in the States
00:59:57Wants to make a statement
01:00:00The world is watching ECW
01:00:09Pin him! Pin him! This is the first time we've seen Tanaka Earth! Pin him, Austin!
01:00:19He's not going to pin him. He's going to awesome bond him through the table all the way to the
01:00:26concrete.
01:00:28And they kill him out! Tanaka Wriggle's free!
01:00:32Boot to the face! Huge clothesline!
01:00:43Tanaka Wriggle's free again! Saving his own life!
01:00:48A pair of elbows right to the top!
01:00:50A pair of elbows right to the top!
01:00:59A pair of elbows right to the top!
01:01:12A pair of elbows right to the top!
01:01:15I can't believe it. At this stage of the match, both men are tired. He just picked up a 300
01:01:22-pound man and threw him over the table, over the top rope, threw a table on the concrete floor.
01:01:28Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! I think the fans have said it all.
01:01:39Mike Osomis, he landed right on the back of his skull.
01:01:46He's out.
01:01:47That table was no match for gravity.
01:01:54Osomis smacked the concrete with the back of his skull.
01:01:57Got a lateral press, too.
01:02:01Mike Osomis kicks out! Mike Osomis kicks out!
01:02:05How in the world did Mike Osomis kick out?
01:02:08That was sheer instinct. I don't even know if he knows he kicked out.
01:02:12He has no idea where he is.
01:02:17There's an elbow right to the point of the jaw. Osomis still up.
01:02:21Got the boot up.
01:02:23There's the roaring elbow! It fell in the mark!
01:02:26Three, two, one!
01:02:28Mike Osomis kicked out of the roaring elbow!
01:02:34Live on pay-per-view, these men know what a victory here means.
01:02:38They're running. They're running on sheer fumes at this point.
01:02:41This is anybody's game!
01:02:43This is anybody's game!
01:02:50Tornado did it here on the steel chair!
01:02:53Two, three!
01:02:55Here we go!
01:02:56Here we go!
01:02:57Masato Tanaka!
01:03:03Masato Tanaka!
01:03:05With a very hard-caught victory over his arch-nemesis, Mike Osomis!
01:03:12But to get it, he had to power-bomb Osomis threw a table under the concrete, hit him with the
01:03:20roaring elbow, and then use a Tornado DDT on two steel chairs!
01:03:27Tanaka got the victory!
01:03:30But you have got to give a hell of a lot of credit to Mike Osomis!
01:03:35Well, I'll tell you one thing, Tanaka proved to me tonight, he has what it takes to be a great
01:03:40champion!
01:03:41And for that reason, I can't wait for November 1st to get back in the ring and start competing against
01:03:47the great stars here at ECW, like Mike, Mike, Mike, Masato Tanaka!
01:04:00Great match-up by two blue chippers!
01:04:17It was truly a pleasure!
01:04:24Look at the reflap!
01:04:29Springboard clothesline, 295-pound Mike Osomis!
01:04:34Going out after Masato Tanaka over the steel guardrail, into the first row!
01:04:41And here comes Tanaka, 75 feet foot out of steam!
01:04:47Tries to cave in the skull of Mike Osomis!
01:04:53This was just truly, I mean, difficult to watch!
01:04:58Right on the back of his head, the table didn't slow up Osomis at all!
01:05:03He smacked the concrete!
01:05:05Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis!
01:05:19Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis!
01:05:23Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Osomis! Os
01:05:34I'm getting goose bumps just thinking about it, brother.
01:05:37In a short while, you're going to tap to the FTW World Heavyweight Champion.
01:05:43The only champion on pay-per-view that means anything in this business.
01:05:48Not Austin.
01:05:50Not Goldberg.
01:05:51And especially that punk, Mike Tyson.
01:05:54Uh-uh.
01:05:55Three letters.
01:05:56One man named Taz.
01:05:58And Bam Bam, you hold a victory over me.
01:06:02On pay-per-view, you pin me in the middle.
01:06:04No excuses.
01:06:06And I'm taking back that victory tonight, brother.
01:06:08Live on pay-per-view.
01:06:10Heat wave.
01:06:11We're here.
01:06:11And you're going to go down, big boy.
01:06:13And I know you're going to kick my ass in the process.
01:06:16And that's the part I like the best.
01:06:20And then you're going to ask yourself, brother.
01:06:22Can I beat him again?
01:06:24Well, I'm going to answer for you.
01:06:25You can't.
01:06:26You won't.
01:06:28Of course, I am Taz.
01:06:29The FTW World Heavyweight Champion.
01:06:32Beat me if you can, Bigelow.
01:06:36Survive if I let you.
01:06:43Well, the champion let the cat out of the bag.
01:06:46ECW returns to pay-per-view with the November to remember 1998 Sunday night, November 1st, from New Orleans, Louisiana.

01:07:11-854-5831.
01:07:17We had to sit and endure that.
01:07:19The FTW World Heavyweight Champion.
01:07:22This is the real World Heavyweight title, Taz.
01:07:25Take a look at it and weep.
01:07:27You got a bigger problem in front of you tonight.
01:07:30And his name is Bam Bam Bigelow.
01:07:34Notwithstanding, it is now my extreme displeasure.
01:07:38I don't want to hear from these guys.
01:07:40I don't want...
01:07:40The Dunleys are backstage.
01:07:42They've got something to say.
01:07:43I don't want to hear it.
01:07:43Fans at home can watch it.
01:07:45Personally, I can't stand it.
01:07:49Well, well, well.
01:07:51Tonight, at Heat Wave 98, everybody seems to be thinking that this is the end for the Dudley Boys.
01:07:59However, if that's what they feel, then nobody seems to be thinking.
01:08:04Because the way I see it, the odds are stacked in the favor of the Dudley Boys.
01:08:10After all, New Jack, I guess he's got a prior engagement.
01:08:15I don't think he'll be here.
01:08:17And Beulah, I don't think she's going to be walking around anywhere near the Dudley Boys.
01:08:23The way I see it, once the Dudleyville street fight begins,
01:08:28there's nobody left to save the Sandman, Spike Dudley, and poor, pathetic Tommy Dreamer.
01:08:36Tommy Dreamer!
01:08:39The savior of the wrestling industry!
01:08:44Crucified!
01:08:45For the sins of Beulah McGillicuddy!
01:08:50Dreamer, you can give your soul to Jesus!
01:08:55But your ass belongs to the Dudley's!
01:09:00That ring is our church!
01:09:06These are our colors!
01:09:113-D is our cross!
01:09:15And tonight, Tommy Dreamer, it's your cross!
01:09:21This is my cross!
01:09:22Come back!
01:09:23Act activate!
01:09:36They truly make me nauseous!
01:09:42Here come the challengers
01:09:44The ECW
01:09:46World Tag Team title belts
01:09:48Leading the way
01:09:51Jinzei Shinzaki
01:09:52Known to your wrestling fans as Hakushi
01:09:55There's his partner
01:09:57Hayabusa
01:10:05What is notable
01:10:07About this team
01:10:08Is that they mirror almost identically
01:10:10The World Tag Team Champions
01:10:12Rob Van Dam and Sabu
01:10:18Without question
01:10:19Hayabusa and Jinzei
01:10:21Can match Van Dam
01:10:23And Sabu
01:10:24In every way
01:10:26Especially
01:10:28With aerial offense
01:10:30If Van Dam and Sabu
01:10:32Come into this Tag Team title match likely
01:10:34They will find themselves
01:10:36As the challengers
01:10:38For those Tag Team title belts
01:10:39In a rematch in Japan
01:10:41And you know what
01:10:42I wouldn't be shocked
01:10:43If these two win the belts
01:10:44Hey neither would I
01:10:46One thing you've got to say
01:10:47Give kudos to Van Dam
01:10:48And Sabu
01:10:49They're not taking those Tag Team titles lightly
01:10:52They're fighting and wrestling
01:10:54The best the world of wrestling
01:10:55Has to offer
01:10:57Our fans are familiar with
01:10:59Mr. Monday Night Rob Van Dam
01:11:01And Sabu
01:11:01A lot of background on
01:11:02Hayabusa and Shinzaki
01:11:03Hayabusa is only 29 years old
01:11:067 years of pro
01:11:07Shinzaki 32 years old
01:11:095 years of pro
01:11:10They have been both opponents
01:11:12And partners
01:11:14They were the FMW
01:11:16Brass Knuckles Tag Team Champions
01:11:18They competed in the
01:11:19Old Japan Tag Team Tournament
01:11:21Together
01:11:21In 1997
01:11:23And by the way
01:11:24Hayabusa is no stranger
01:11:27To Sabu
01:11:27World Tag Team Championship
01:11:33Hayabusa and Sabu
01:11:35Have had one and only
01:11:37One singles matchup
01:11:38And Hayabusa won it
01:11:40You can bet that Sabu
01:11:41Has not forgotten
01:11:43I bet he hasn't
01:11:47By the way
01:11:48I'd like to thank
01:11:49Tim Whitehead
01:11:50Mike Johnson
01:11:51And especially
01:11:52Zach Arnold

01:15:06Rob Van Den
01:15:18The world tag team champions
01:15:21Have a huge advantage here
01:15:23Keep in mind
01:15:24That the Japanese contingent
01:15:26Hayabusa
01:15:27And Shinseki
01:15:28Have been in the pair
01:15:29For over 20 hours
01:15:31They've got to be jet lagged
01:15:32Right about now
01:15:34It's a very important point
01:15:37Again, this is a matchup
01:15:38That hardcore fans
01:15:42Have been looking forward to
01:15:53Waiting to find out
01:15:54Who will

01:15:57For each team
01:16:06This is just the calm
01:16:08Before the storm
01:16:17Small quarrel here
01:16:19So let's see
01:16:19Who's going to start
01:16:20The match
01:16:21For the chance
01:16:49The champs just
01:16:51Failed to get off
01:16:55While Albonzo's full-time job
01:16:57Is keeping them
01:16:58From tearing
01:16:59To their heads up
01:17:01Will be
01:17:02Van Dam
01:17:02And Hayabusa
01:17:03That way
01:17:06You're Verfügung
01:17:10At the top
01:17:12To their heads
01:17:12Unfortunately
01:17:15pag
01:17:16Child
01:17:16Of
01:17:16To their hearts
01:17:20The
01:17:20둘
01:17:21Of
01:17:22The
01:17:31And
01:17:32Total
01:17:32Three
01:17:33S
01:17:34Rob Van Dam is the biggest glory hog I have ever seen in professional wrestling and that covers a lot
01:17:41of good.
01:17:41He's done!
01:17:43He's done!
01:17:45He's done!
01:17:46He's done!
01:17:46He's done!
01:17:52He's done!
01:17:53Come on!
01:17:57Hayabusa, single leg take down by Rob Van Dam.
01:18:02Nice roll through by Hayabusa.
01:18:06Van Dam steps through.
01:18:09Single leg off to Crab. Nice roll by Hayabusa.
01:18:13Hey, come on!
01:18:14Hey!
01:18:14Predicament!
01:18:16Van Dam's shoulders were down only for a split second.
01:18:19All right!
01:18:23Van Dam threw the fake with the right hand but landed the boot right between the eyes.
01:18:40I wish Alfonso would sprawl that damned whistle.
01:18:45Throw an elbow tie up into a side headlock by Hayabusa.
01:18:48Hayabusa.
01:18:50Van Dam looking for a way out.
01:18:55Hayabusa's up to the right.
01:18:56Locked out goes Rob Van Dam.
01:18:58Nice kick up.
01:19:02Hayabusa waited a split second.
01:19:04Van Dam saw him coming.
01:19:06You want him?
01:19:08You want him?
01:19:09Hayabusa and Rob Van Dam definitely trying to stay one step ahead of one another.
01:19:16I see the World Heavyweight Champion diligently taking notes on this matchup.
01:19:23Did you say something to him?
01:19:26I see him taking notes on the matchup.
01:19:27I understand that at any one point, any one of these four athletes can be a challenger for your World
01:19:33Heavyweight title.
01:19:34Of course.
01:19:35I'm not sitting up here just taking this thing lightly.
01:19:36I'm not a lazy guy up here.
01:19:38I'm making sure I scope out the future opponent.
01:19:40Right to put.
01:19:43It's a forearm to the face.
01:19:46Hayabusa's up to the right hand.
01:19:47Japanese arm drag.
01:19:49And Van Dam is just so proud of what he said.
01:19:59Side kick.
01:20:02The quadriceps of Rob Van Dam.
01:20:04Kick to the face.
01:20:06Great thinking by Hayabusa.
01:20:08There's a cheap shot on Sabu.
01:20:09Sabu wants a part of Hayabusa.
01:20:13Great thinking on the part of Hayabusa to kick Rob Van Dam from the quads.
01:20:17Almost all of Rob Van Dam's offense is kicking and leaping.
01:20:21And if you can take his wheels out of him, you've eliminated 90% of his offense.
01:20:28Two count.
01:20:31Tip up into a splash.
01:20:37Van Dam's up to the right.
01:20:40Shitsaki steps ahead too soon and got caught.
01:20:44Took the roundhouse but took the second kick right in the munch.
01:20:55Shitsaki in the corner counting his teeth.
01:21:01Your arm to the face.
01:21:04Irish whip reversed.
01:21:06Back on the way.
01:21:07In Zafiri lane.
01:21:09Down goes Rob Van Dam.
01:21:11In home.
01:21:13Come on.
01:21:15Come on.
01:21:18Come on.
01:21:21Definitely looking for a tag.
01:21:23He knows his partner's in trouble.
01:21:26I'm with him.
01:21:27Hey!
01:21:30Hey!
01:21:31Hey!
01:21:32Hey!
01:21:33Hey!
01:21:39Hey!
01:21:40Hey!
01:21:40Hey!
01:21:40Hey!
01:21:40Shitsaki doing the playing rope rock.
01:21:43What balance!
01:21:46Oh!
01:21:47Oh!
01:21:47Oh!
01:21:47Oh!
01:21:48Oh!
01:21:48Oh!
01:21:49Oh!
01:21:53Oh!
01:21:53Oh!
01:21:54Oh!
01:21:56Oh!
01:21:57I'm at south!
01:21:58The fans are On their feet for Jinze Shinzaki.
01:22:02And Dam next to close-line.
01:22:05Kick the midsection.
01:22:06Double underhook.
01:22:09Shinzaki scoops to leg.
01:22:12The knee but misses !
01:22:18Crucial mistake...
01:22:45That might be a choke.
01:22:49Chomp down, of course, for Trapezius.
01:22:51Kicks to the lower back.
01:22:55Sabu just putting apart Shinzaki.
01:22:58Shinzaki's up the right.
01:23:00O'slock, that was stiff.
01:23:03Enter press, two in.
01:23:05Two count only says referee John Pee-Wee Moore.
01:23:12He's coming in with a ground attack.
01:23:18Franchise jumping in, taking a break from writing what looks to be a book.
01:23:22I mean, literally a scouting report on all four athletes in the ring.
01:23:30Shinzaki has got to make the call to Ayabusa.
01:23:32Ayabusa.
01:23:37Rubbing right hands to the back of Sabu's head.
01:23:44There we go, Ayabusa and Sabu.
01:23:49Sabu immediately drop kicks the knee of Ayabusa.
01:23:54Sabu is now going to be a press.
01:23:56Two count only.
01:24:04Sabu at the side headlock.
01:24:06That's more the style we'd expect to see from Sabu.
01:24:11Shoulder block.
01:24:13Nice kickball.
01:24:16Backflip drop kick.
01:24:24Sabu wisely going to the floor, but I doubt that he is safe there.
01:24:38Ayabusa and Shinzaki pose a serious threat to the tight team title run of Sabu.
01:24:45I think we're going to see new champions here.
01:24:48That's what I just wrote down here.
01:24:50The World Tag Team Champions are in trouble.
01:24:52This team from Japan certainly has Sabu and Fandang scouted very well.
01:24:59Sabu going straight right hands.
01:25:02Ayabusa responds.
01:25:04A slap trying to box the ears of Sabu.
01:25:06I'm going to drop kick to the knee.
01:25:07Cover right now.
01:25:08Go!
01:25:08Go!
01:25:09Go!
01:25:11Go!
01:25:12Go!
01:25:12Go!
01:25:12Go!
01:25:13Go!
01:25:13Go!
01:25:14Go!
01:25:15Sabu now pulling forward on the left shin of Ayabusa.
01:25:24Trying to cut off a supply of blood for that foot.
01:25:27It's like bending a garden hose.
01:25:29The water can't get through.
01:25:30What a great, intelligent move by Sabu.
01:25:33He knows that Ayabusa is dangerous off the ropes and in the air.
01:25:37So keep him on the mat.
01:25:38Keep him locked down.
01:25:40Don't let him slide.
01:25:41Get up!
01:25:42Get up!
01:25:42Break it!
01:25:43Go!
01:25:43Ayabusa can hurt you in so many ways with aerial offense.
01:25:50Some of his weapons include the Stardust Press, the Shooting Star Press, the Phoenix Splash.
01:25:56Sabu doesn't want to see any of them.
01:25:58Oh, no, no, no.
01:25:58Two count.
01:26:03Anytime Ayabusa climbs the turnbuckle, the World Tag Team Champions on throw.
01:26:10And that's why Sabu's keeping him away from the ropes and turnbuckle.
01:26:14Sabir takeover.
01:26:16Sabu keeps going up.
01:26:18Come on, come on.
01:26:18Come on, come on.
01:26:19Come on, come on.
01:26:19Come on, come on.
01:26:19Come on, come on.
01:26:19There's a version of the Camel Crunch.
01:26:23Come on, come on.
01:26:24Come on, come on.
01:26:38And it's Van Damme showing up Hayabusa.
01:26:44And Shinzaki took exception to it.
01:26:47Screenboard missile drop kick to the back of the noggin.
01:26:52Up and over goes Shinzaki.
01:26:55Roundhouse by Hayabusa.
01:26:56Catches the ribs of Sabu.
01:26:57Another one right in the ribcage of Sabu.
01:27:04Baseball slide.
01:27:05Sabu in the middle of the inning.
01:27:06And it's the steal.
01:27:11Hayabusa.
01:27:32Shizaki and Hayabusa are exposing weaknesses I have not yet seen in Van Damme and Sabu.
01:28:03We've got Rester slowly spilling back into the ring.
01:28:19We've got the ring crew trying to fix the ramp.
01:28:22As you saw, the franchise, Shane Douglas in a fit of rage picked up a monitor, threw it
01:28:27down into the bleachers, smashed his headset.
01:28:34I'd be happy to get the hell out of this.
01:28:36All right, we've got a pay-per-view coming.
01:28:37We return to pay-per-view on Sunday night, November 1st, with the November 2nd, 1998.
01:28:43From New Orleans, Louisiana, tickets go on sale September 7th.
