00:00Sabu, Van Damme, Lola, Sandman, Dreamer, Franchise, McMahon, and my buddy Paul Heyman.
00:12Even though I'm the new ECW World Television Champion and it just might get me fired,
00:19I don't give a damn about any what he is.
00:22Of course, in a little while, I'm going to tell you the truth about Wrestlepalooza 97.
00:30Hello, everyone, and welcome to Extreme Championship Wrestling.
00:34I'm Joey Styles, along with a ravishing recruit, and everybody, and we do mean everybody,

01:39Oh, my God.
02:09Oh, my God.
02:39Oh, my God.
03:09Oh, my God.
03:39Oh, my God.
04:09Look at this.
04:10Yeah.
04:11Mr. Monday Night right here, baby.
04:15Hey, what about an ECW?
04:19Ain't you got anybody tough?
04:20Hey, let me say something to the franchise.
04:24Hey, franchise, how about coming down here and get a little piece of this?
04:29I ain't part of this, brother, go ahead and kick all the asses you want.
04:41I got no part of it.
04:42Yeah.
04:43Yeah.
04:44I don't think the ECW extremely crappy wrestlers got anybody tough.
04:50I don't think anybody wants a war with me.
04:53Look at this.
04:56Look at that.
04:58Wait, wait, wait, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
05:05You piece of crap.
05:07You're the biggest piece of crap.
05:09You piece of crap.
05:10Hey, baby, dreamer.
05:16Look at this.
05:18Hey, Pabby Dreamer!
05:35Look at this!

05:41Kill the crap!
05:44Yes!
05:48Hey, Pauly, where's Pauly?
05:52Look at this!
05:54Look at this right here!
05:57What's the matter?
05:58Is there anybody in the ECW that's got any guts?
06:02Is there anybody that can back up?
06:04Oh, let's go!
06:08Oh, let's go!
06:11We want that!
06:15We want that!
06:20We want that!
06:50We're on fire!
06:53We're on fire!
06:54Monday night!
06:57We're on fire!
06:59We're on fire!
07:01We're on fire!
07:03We're on fire!
07:05We're on fire!
07:07We're on fire!
07:10Come on, everybody!
07:12Slap them!
07:13Monday night!
07:14The King!
07:15Zabu!
07:16Mr. Monday night!
07:18Oh, we're on fire, baby!
07:36Wow!
07:37Beautiful!
07:41Everyone coming out.
07:48Before we go home, we're on fire!
07:59Wow!
08:00Is that all you get?
08:02Hey!
08:04What do they tell you, low-women?
08:18It looks to be like the only man willing to fight him is Sabu.
08:48He has cleared the ring.
09:18This is Xtreme!
09:48This program will continue to document the events of Wrestle Palooza 97.
09:54In this hour, we are scheduled to see the Dudley boys be awarded the ECW World Tag Team title belt.
10:01Of course, last week, Lance Wright updated you that Terry Saturn's left leg almost completely destroyed a torn ACL, a torn meniscus, a fractured tibia, and a fractured kneecap as well.
10:14We'll show you that later in this hour.
10:18Now, at this point, it's a little flustered, I'm sorry, but you saw it last week.
10:22It happened here at Wrestle Palooza 97.
10:24Jerry the King Lawler in the ECW Arena.
10:26Where do you begin with?
10:28I can tell you where you begin, Styles.
10:30You begin with Sabu, and you begin with Van Damme.
10:34We all know Jerry Lawler sucks.
10:36We all know Jerry Lawler's reputation.
10:38But it was Van Damme and Sabu who did the damage to the ECW.
10:43They tried to run it right up the backside.
10:46Now it's time for someone to get even with Van Damme and Sabu.
10:52The one man who you can bet wants a piece of.
10:54Rob Van Damme, Sabu, and Jerry the King Lawler is Tommy Dreamer.
10:58And Rick Rude, your personal cameraman with the Rude Cam, got these comments of Tommy Dreamer.
11:05The highlight of my career.
11:11I finally pinned Raven.
11:15Thank you, Louie.
11:17Thank you, Van Damme.
11:20Thank you, Sabu.
11:22God bless you, Jerry Lawler.
11:25Because not only do I have something to die for,
11:30I have something to live for.
11:34A piece of your
11:38What you are looking at is a response to Wrestlepalooza 97.
11:46Tommy Dreamer took it upon himself to fly to Memphis, Tennessee,
11:49where he crashed their local wrestling television show,
11:52destroyed their set,
11:54picked a couple of their employees,
11:56and not one wrestler in their locker room did a damn thing about it.
11:59To make matters worse, now ECW is appearing on the WWF's Monday night program.
12:04Quite frankly, I don't think we belong there.
12:06I know we don't want to be there.
12:08And my boss, Paulie Dangerously,
12:10has now created the biggest scandal in the business
12:12by telling the whole world what we in the business already knew,
12:15that Jerry Lawler is Brian Christopher's spot.
12:18How many people, how many promotions are going to be dragged down
12:21by that greedy headline grabber, Rob Van Damme?
12:25And to make matters worse, one of the men who helped start ECW
12:28and put us on the map, Sabu is back up not only Rob Van Damme,
12:34but that other, I'm not going to say his name.
12:37You know, the bottom line is, it's all about ECW.
12:41I came back into wrestling to commentate about the athletes at ECW,
12:47about the Sandman, about Taz.
12:49Yeah, I'll be going so far as saying about Shane Douglas.
12:53I don't want to talk about like Jerry the King Lawler,
12:57because Lawler, if you want to shoot,
12:59we'd talk about maybe the combined age of your last two girlfriends is 24.
13:05I want to talk about the ECW.
13:07I want to talk about action, about real athletes.
13:12Hey, Paulie, let's talk a little bit, okay?
13:16Listen up, because I've got something I need to say.
13:19Not something I want to say, something I need to say.
13:21You want to shoot with me? Huh?
13:24That's what you said, you want to shoot with me?
13:25Well, let's shoot, okay?
13:27Let's tell it like it is.
13:29Let me tell you exactly what I see is happening here.
13:33I want everybody in your whole stinking organization
13:37and all of those sick, degenerate, so-called fans of yours,
13:41to know what the score really is.
13:44Because you see, Paulie, when some of your wrestlers like Rob Van Dam
13:48come and wrestle in the World Wrestling Federation,
13:50some of those sick, perverted fans chant, you sold out.
13:54Well, let me tell you something.
13:56Let me smarten everybody up in the ECW.
13:59You, Paulie, you're the one that's trying to sell out.
14:03And you know what? I can help you do it.
14:06All I got to do is say the word to Vince McMahon
14:10and I really think he'll give you a job.
14:13Because it's obvious to me.
14:15It may not be obvious to those pea-brained morons that work for you.
14:18And it may not be obvious to those brain-damaged imbeciles
14:21that come to your matches.
14:23But it's obvious to me that that's what you want to do.
14:26You see me and you see all of the rest of the superstars
14:29in the World Wrestling Federation that are seen all over the world
14:33by billions, not millions, not thousands, but billions of people.
14:37And that eats at your guts, doesn't it?
14:39You can't stand it, can you, Paulie?
14:41You can't stand the fact that you are just a little, nothing-happening nobody.
14:46Your little organization, ECW, is not a pebble on the ass of the World Wrestling Federation.
14:53And you know that.
14:54And that eats at you, doesn't it, huh?
14:56You can't stand it, can you, Paulie?
14:58We're shooting now, aren't we, huh?
14:59You like this?
15:00Let me tell you something.
15:01I came to ECW.
15:03I saw what it was all about.
15:06I saw, what, a thousand, fifteen hundred degenerates,
15:13bags, homeless perverts that come crawling in off the street.
15:19I saw them there.
15:20You call those your fans?
15:21Oh, that's something to be proud of, Paulie.
15:23Yeah, that's really nice.
15:25You really got a great organization there.
15:27The ECW.
15:28And all your wrestlers.
15:30You're nothing-happening either has-beens like Terry Funk,
15:34who has got to be so old that it was an embarrassment to watch him hobble out to the ring.
15:40They're either has-beens or they're never wases.
15:43Like your Tommy Dreamers.
15:45Tommy Dreamer.
15:46Huh?
15:47Come on, pal.
15:48Anytime, anyplace.
15:49And Sandman, you want to cane somebody?
15:51You ought to be caning somebody at the Betty Ford Clinic.
15:54You dope addict.
15:55You drunk.
15:56You degenerate.
15:57I'm telling you something, Paulie.
15:59You want to play with me?
16:01I'll play with you, pal.
16:03Get ready.
16:04I'll play with you.
16:05I'll play with you.
16:12Extreme.
16:13Championship.
16:14Murphy.
16:15Extreme.
16:16Championship.
16:17Mercy.
16:18On August 17th, 1997, ECW will return to pay-per-view with our
16:20Hardcore Heaven 97.
16:21Call your local cable company or satellite television producer.
16:25On August 17th, 1997, ECW will return to pay-per-view with Hardcore Heaven 97.
16:47Call your local cable company or satellite television provider right now
16:51and let them know you want the opportunity to be taken to the extreme to see Hardcore Heaven 97.
16:59Now, one match we moved up from the pay-per-view to WrestlePalooza 97
17:03was the grunt rematch of the century, Taz vs. Sabu,
17:08and this rematch every bit as brutal as their first matchup is fairly legal, Rick.
17:12Brutal to say the least. It was kind of an up-and-down day for Taz.
17:16He had some goods, he had some bads.
17:19He lost a battle, but he won a war.
17:22Like I said, it was an up-and-down day for Taz
17:25and an up-and-down night for Francine, if you know what I mean.
17:29I know what you mean. I stay in the hotel room next to you.
17:32Right next?
17:33Yeah, that's me.
17:34I don't get a weight of sleep.
17:36Let's go to the footage now.
17:37The rematch, Taz vs. Sabu.
17:39Oh, my God.
17:41There's the balance.
17:42It's time for the grudge rematch of the century.
17:45This matchup also originally scheduled for a pay-per-view on August 17th.
17:54But these two men couldn't wait.
17:58Both feet in the face of Taz, cover.
18:03And they're going for a cover early on in the matchup.
18:06Sabu is desperate to even the score from fairly legal.
18:10Tip-up.
18:20And Taz counters.
18:26Now it's Taz putting the boots to Sabu.
18:29It doesn't take Taz any time to even up the score, does it?
18:33Taz has got to stay one step ahead of Sabu because his former manager, Phil Alfonso,
18:41who knows many of his training secrets, is now in the corner of Sabu.
18:49And vicious cross-facing going on.
18:51Taz looking to break the nose of Sabu again, as he did at fairly legal.
18:57That was a smart move by Sabu, taking big Taz off his feet.
19:10Well, if the knee bustles, he can't throw those Taz flexors.
19:14Exactly.
19:15With no knee, he has no balance.
19:18With no balance, he has no leverage.
19:20And leverage and balance are the two most important things to a mat wrestler like Taz.
19:33Taz trying to walk it off on the outside.
19:36Takes a baseball slide to the chest.
19:43Acai moves up.
19:45And Taz gets sandwiched into the guardrail.
19:48Sabu is going for the triple jump move, going to backflash.
19:59That's exactly why it's called a high-risk maneuver.
20:06Taz has Sabu cinched up.
20:09Sabu holding on for dear life.
20:13T-bone Taz flexed.
20:16Taz can't even sit.
20:19Taz says this is it.
20:21Sabu trying to fight off the T-bone.
20:24Now Taz fighting off the T-bone.
20:27Waste locked.
20:30No delight Taz flexing the bridge.
20:33And Sabu pushed away the foot of Taz to kick out.
20:37That's what makes Sabu so dangerous.
20:39Not only is he great in the air,
20:41but he knows how to counter-map maneuvers.
20:43But he knows how to counter-map maneuvers.
20:50And this is not where Taz wants to be.
21:00Sabu switches direction in mid-air.
21:02And puts Taz from the table.
21:05And puts Taz from the table.
21:05Both Taz and the table tremble from Sabu's force.
21:10And that may be all for the human two-flex machine.
21:14Sabu may have even this series.
21:17And what a...
21:18No!
21:19It's the count behind Jermaine!
21:21Sabu flips backwards!
21:24Taz's shoulders were down on the mat.
21:26He's got the hold,
21:27but his shoulders were down for a three-count.
21:29Well, the match is over,
21:31but Taz isn't letting go of the count behind Jermaine!
21:35He's got the late great find as well!
21:39It's like Taz lost the battle,
21:40but he's winning the war!
21:43He refuses to let go!
21:46I don't think he knows the match is over!
21:48I don't think he cares!
21:49He's choking out the referee!
22:02Taz has snapped!
22:05That was his first loss
22:07since September 16th, 95,
22:10when he came back to Orley for a broken...
22:13Neck!
22:14Take it easy.
22:16You've already stretched everybody to the ring.
22:18Your job is done for the night.
22:20Take a walk and let the next
22:21match get in there.
22:26Get in there.
22:28And let the next match...
22:29I'm sitting up here enjoying myself.
22:31I've seen enough of your ass.
22:32Get the out.
22:37If you would like me
22:38to leave my ring,
22:41why don't you come
22:43and make me leave?
22:49Brother, as much as I would like
22:52to come down there
22:53and teach you how to throw
22:55a suplex proper,
22:56what the f*** do I get out of it
22:59if I come down there and sweat?
23:00I've already shown all these
23:01f*** what a great athlete I am
23:03by taking a very competent rookie
23:05and stretching his ass.
23:06I get nothing by coming down there
23:08and showing you
23:09what wrestling is all about.
23:10So, you want to play
23:20Let's Make a Deal.
23:22That sounds cool.
23:23I got a deal for you, Shane.
23:25If you come in this ring
23:28and face me face-to-face,
23:33I guarantee you,
23:35I guarantee you,
23:37I can make you tap out
23:39within five minutes.
23:45Five minutes, brother.
23:47Brother, you've got
23:48f***ing confidence
23:49the size of this building
23:50because you ain't got it in you, brother.
23:52I tell you what,
23:53I'll be willing to put
23:54the belt on the line.
23:59But, but,
24:02five minutes,
24:04I don't tap out.
24:05You walk out the f***ing door
24:07and I don't go to look
24:08at your greasy ass
24:09for 60 days.
24:10I won't make you tap
24:11in five minutes.
24:13Being that you're so fond
24:14of this number,
24:15I won't make you tap
24:17in three minutes, Shane.
24:19Brother, strap him up tight.
24:21You've got yourself
24:22my f***ing teeth.
24:25Go get him, Shane.
24:27Go get him.
24:27Go.
24:28Was a questionable move
24:30by Taz,
24:31but downright stupid
24:32on the part of Douglas.
24:34Douglas has nothing
24:35to gain here.
24:37And everything to lose.
24:42And Taz
24:43has already wrestled
24:44a match against
24:45Savu, of all people.
24:49Needless to say,
24:50Taz has been worn down,
24:51but this is stupid
24:53on the part
24:53of Shane Douglas.
24:54He should stick and move.
24:56Stay away from Taz
24:57and let the clock run out.
25:00Well, this ego
25:01may be getting
25:01the best of him.
25:03Maybe he's trying
25:04to prove to Francine.
25:06After all,
25:06he is a man.
25:0730 seconds down.
25:12Swinging neckbreaker.
25:14The franchise knows
25:15that Taz has had
25:16a broken neck
25:17and nobody breaks
25:18necks like the franchise.
25:23Nobody's got a neck
25:24like Taz either.
25:25TDT.
25:33We are now
25:34a full minute.
25:35Oh my God.
25:36Excellent move
25:37by Shane Douglas.
25:39An inverted rolling
25:40next step.
25:42And we've got
25:43less than two minutes.
25:44Oh, not a kick.
25:46We have got
25:47less than two minutes
25:48to go
25:48in this special challenge.
25:52He's focused
25:53on the neck of Taz.
25:57We are halfway through.
25:59We are a minute 30
26:00into this three-minute challenge.
26:01Full Nelson
26:02now by the franchise.
26:04Taz goes for the
26:05countdown today.
26:06The franchise
26:07blocks the right arm
26:08and goes downstairs.
26:09It was a gutsy challenge
26:11by Taz
26:12who maybe was trying
26:13to spin a web
26:14and catch a fly.
26:15Whether or not
26:16he has the gas
26:17left in him
26:17remains to be seen.
26:19Reversal.
26:21There it is.
26:22There's the
26:23cut to Hodgemei.
26:24He's running
26:25left on.
26:28The Taz mission
26:29but cut to Hodgemei
26:31is left on
26:32the World's
26:32Towers and Champion.
26:34We have got
26:35one minute to go.
26:37Can the franchise
26:38hold on?
26:39He's trying desperately
26:40to reach the ropes
26:41but Taz
26:42has the hope
26:43since done.
26:44Douglas'
26:45legs are not long
26:46enough.
26:47He cannot reach the ropes.
26:49Less than one minute
26:50to go.
26:51Can the franchise
26:52hang on?
26:53Can he put it
26:54off the cuff
26:54to Hodgemei?
26:56Shane Douglas
26:57has to feel
26:58that title belt
26:58slipping from his grasp
27:00as every second
27:01kicks off the clock.
27:0330 seconds left
27:05from the franchise.
27:09Taz keeps trying
27:10to hook that leg
27:10and the franchise
27:11keeps kicking it away.
27:13He's back up
27:13to his feet.
27:15He's going to try
27:15to kick backwards
27:16like Zabu.
27:17He's locked the legs.
27:20He's had the franchise
27:21and the franchise
27:22is my first
27:25try to do it.
27:27He's poison
27:27and the franchise
27:29is I'm going to be
27:29a tough one.
27:30He's coming for you
27:31to be shipped
27:31for two seconds.
27:32Taz
27:32is going to be
27:33up to the franchise

33:20take it to the ring where the eliminators are scheduled to
33:39turn over those world tag team title belts to commissioner todd gordon who will then award them
33:46to our new world tag team champions the dudley's as most of you already know perry saturn has a very
33:54severe leg injury
33:58he has a torn acl a broken tibia
34:06and he has surgery scheduled for tuesday
34:09the prognosis is he will be out for one year
34:19unfortunately at this time it is not my pleasure to ask the eliminators to please come out and
34:26surrender the tag team belt
34:27we knew this was going to happen
34:37but it still hurts to hear it come out of commissioner todd gordon's mouth
34:43and the world tag team champions will make their way to the rink
34:47well cronus looks like he's ready to go
34:56unfortunately perry saturn will not be able to go physically
35:04for most likely one year you know that's got to be ripping at their guts i know the feeling
35:11the champion never wants to surrender the title they want to lose it in battle
35:16if they have to lose it well for you fans watching at home when we come back
35:22we will have to watch the painful sight of the eliminators turning over the tag team belts to
35:27commissioner todd gordon i can't believe it
35:30we will be able to do it
35:40saturn can barely make it up on the apron
36:00gentlemen if you'll turn over the belts please
36:06one of the saddest moments in ecw history
36:13shut up fat boy before i bust one of these questions across your head
36:22listen todd we came here tonight knowing we were going to lose them belts
36:26no disrespect intended to you or ecw nothing means more to cronus me to be an ecw world tag team
36:36champions
36:44todd you being the founder of ecw you should understand ecw tradition okay we got to lose the belts
36:51but let us lose them in a fight they want them let them beat us yeah there you go
36:58the doctor you know you can't wrestle i'm gonna wrestle he's gonna wrestle
37:04by himself he can't wrestle by himself this cronus is an egg without a yoke
37:19with all due respect bring the belt start the match oh this is a mistake todd gordon got
37:27dotted into making this a match by being after being verbally abused by bubble ray deadly there
37:33should be no match one man even an egg without a yoke if you said cannot wrestle two men especially not
37:40the former world tag team champions if cronus is indeed an egg without a yoke he's about to get
37:45scrambled those are two former world tag team champions he's a man by himself and he's already
37:51down right yeah well he may be down but he's in the hunt joy and like i said at the beginning
37:59if they have to lose those belts they want to lose them in battle cronus and saturn aren't going to hand
38:04them over to anybody
38:05i guess there's something to be said for dignity i mean sean michaels once turned over a belt to
38:13jane douglas not to fight him because he was injured john michaels twice turned over a belt didn't he
38:20yes he did but then again he didn't wind up getting injured even worse that he wants to begin with
38:25well cronus ain't giving in to nobody he bought himself a few seconds from the double close line
38:34but perry saturn's out for a year if cronus gets hurt now why should both men not be able to wrestle
38:39i mean cronus can wrestle as a single these guys are a team they live together they die together
38:46a couple of roundhouses on bubba ray and devon and the death board has just been signed
38:57choke slam that is one big dip
39:04bubba ray will now cover cronus
39:10he's not going to beat him that way
39:11cronus did manage to kick out i don't care how beat down cronus is you're going to have to hook
39:19a leg you're going to have to pin him they will they're going to take their sweet time but they will
39:30evon and bubba ray just kicking their shots in the corner
39:34get up you goofy cronus making a futile effort to fight back
39:42but devon has primed the turnbuckles cronus gets planted
39:49and a perfectly placed diving headbutt from the top maybe all for cronus
39:57it doesn't look too good for him that's for sure
39:59you are watching a matchup coming to you from wrestlepalooza 97
40:07the gunley boys devon and bubba ray on route to becoming two-time ecw world tag team champions
40:15are challenging the sole eliminator john cronus who is defending the belt by himself
40:22because todd gordon was going into deeming this a sanctioned matchup the eliminator should have
40:32just turned over the punch to the back of big dick he goes head to head with devon
40:39and perry saturn had better get out of that ring before he winds up crippled for life it's about time
40:45someone got rid of that big dick
40:49saturn took the clothesline
40:51bubba cutter he's got more balance on one leg than i've got on two but he better stay out of that ring
40:59cronus goes for the cover
41:02bubba gets the shoulder up and it doesn't get any closer to a three-tap than that may have been a lucky
41:08blow dealt by the eliminator but it is still cronus in there on his own saturn's on the outside on the
41:16floor retching in pain
41:21saturn came in one last attempt to save his partner to save the belts
41:27maybe did more damage to himself than good for the team
41:31now cronus down in pain joy maybe it's time cronus cash in the chips
41:39i don't think he's got a say in the matter
41:45bubba ray now caught in with cronus in the corner
41:50reversal nevon gets cut
41:56hurricane cronus
41:57from a cutter and that's it
42:05now cronus manages to kick out
42:09that's got to be the last of the fight he's got left in him
42:12you're not going to get any closer to a three count than that
42:16now the next count we're going to see is the three count
42:19and the crowning for the second time of the dunleys as the ecw world tag team champion
42:28yeah they may be finished joey but they gave a hell of a fight
42:31perry saturn comes in on one leg to save the day
42:36here's a sidekick underneath the chin of bummer ray hudley
42:40big dick and devon coming the hard way
42:43referee jim malano is sandwiched in the corner he's down
42:47big dick set for the right it's still three against one
42:57evon now set for the right reverse spin kick on devon
43:03there's a roundhouse in the back of the neck above the way you can hear joe gutner screaming like a little girl or a
43:10a castrated rooster on the outside
43:19saturn's directing traffic out there
43:21you are watching the most valued effort in the history of this promotion
43:31i dare say all wrestling promotions but the hell with them all
43:35pattern and cronics are going to go out but they're going to go out with extreme style
43:44450 splat he hit the move
43:46but he cannot capitalize he can't make the cover and even if he did there's no referee hook the legs
43:59the february dunley drops the elbow
44:04and dunleys have all the cards
44:07stacked in their favor
44:10yeah but we know the eliminators had a beat
44:13devon was dubbed for well over a three count
44:19no matter how much longer the match goes
44:21we'll leave this building with the knowledge that the eliminators
44:25were the best tag team in the world
44:29and what is perry saturn doing he's up on the ring apron and now big dick is really gonna hurt
44:35maybe not i think this saturn's just as crazy as cronus is now what the hell is he doing on
44:46the top turn but oh my god i can't believe it he just dropped an elbow he's got one leg and he's
44:54hurt broke the leg they got him time of the match seven minutes 31 seconds your winner and still
45:07ecw world tag team champions saturn coronis the eliminator that's impossible i can't believe it
45:19now that's a case where two men just refused to lose
45:24you've got a doctor out there along with paramedics
45:42and the emt's that better they've got to take saturn to the hospital
45:46do you realize what we've just witnessed here joey these two men perry saturn in particular
45:54put his whole career on the line just to hold on to those belts for one more day
46:00because you know as well as i do sooner or later the odds will catch up with them
46:07let's go
46:21do
46:23What you have just witnessed is one extreme hardcore athlete who was willing to give it
46:47all up so that he and his partner and best friend could remain the ECW World Tag Team Champions
46:54and the best tag team in the world today.
