00:00He broke Mikey Whipbrek's leg in Mikey's hometown of Buffalo, New York.
00:08He beat the greatness out of Japanese legend, the great Sasuke.
00:14He interrupted a sacred 10-bell salute for Tommy Dreamer's late grandfather.
00:21He won the Summer Series at Heat Wave 98 against Jerry Lynn.
00:27And now, he has not only scored a rare victory over the Sandman at the ECW Arena.
00:35He actually came the hardcore icon with the Sandman's own cane in the Sandman's home field, the ECW Arena.
00:46Tonight, Just Incredible is The Hunted, and the Sandman is on his trail as we take New Orleans to the extreme!
00:58Extreme!
01:08Championship!
01:13Murphy!
01:19We are all about to do!
01:24We are all about to do!
01:29We have all about the new jackpard Angels, our thud.
01:32We have all about the new jackpard Angels and win.
01:36We have all about the new jackpard Angels and all over the Landshed Members.
02:13Hello, everyone, and welcome to Extreme Championship Wrestling.
02:25I'm Joey Stiles at the Civic Center on the outskirts of New Orleans, Louisiana, just minutes from the site of November 1st, 1998's pay-per-view, the November to Remember.
02:39It is the sixth annual showcase event for ECW.
02:44Again, this year, it will be live on pay-per-view.
02:48What an exciting hour of television we have for you.
02:52Later on, we will see a confrontation between the two hardcore icons, Just Incredible, self-proclaimed, and the Sandman, which is Earth.
03:02Now, last week here on television, we saw the franchise Shane Douglas, the heavyweight champion of the world, walk off.
03:10An all-too-often occurrence now, but Francine laid down the law.
03:15The head cheerleader made it clear that the franchise was going to get medical clearance for his elbow,
03:21and he would be back in the ring sooner than we all expected.
03:26More on that later in the program.
03:29But right now, what we're going to see is a rematch from a few months ago.
03:35It was on June 27th that Masato Tanaka and Balls Mahoney tore down the ECW arena in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
03:47Highlights now from that great Philadelphia war.
03:50Oh, my God!
04:01Oh, my God!
04:07He's alive!
04:08He's still standing, and he's coming back for more!
04:14Oh, it's over!
04:20He's getting up!
04:22He's standing!
04:24This kid wants to win!
04:37But to win, he's going to have to put down a 300-and-some-odd-pound Balls Mahoney.
04:47He just did cover the ship.
04:50One, two, go!
04:54Mahoney somehow gets the right shoulder up, and Tanaka's going for the Roaring Elbow!
05:03Welcome back to Extreme Championship Wrestling.
05:07You're watching a rematch from June 27th of this year.
05:11Masato, Tanaka, and Balls Mahoney.
05:13Tanaka with the hammerlock drop-toe hold by Balls Mahoney.
05:17Mahoney floats over to a front chancery.
05:19Tanaka sits out, comes up with a hammerlock.
05:23Referee John Peewee Moore makes Tanaka break the hold.
05:26Mahoney had the bottom rope.
05:29Balls Mahoney, believe it or not, has a tremendous amateur background.
05:33Amateur wrestling career was pretty much ruined because he kept punching people in the mouth.
05:37That's a no-no in NCAA rules.
05:42Single-leg takedown.
05:46Into a single-leg Boston Crab.
05:50Referee John Peewee Moore right there.
05:53Tanaka rolls through.
05:54Mahoney now pulling back on that leg.
05:59Look at the hybrid step in the knee.
06:01Tanaka goes to the bottom rope.
06:10And another handshake.
06:12Both of these athletes have tremendous respect for one another.
06:19Side headlock.
06:23Mahoney runs over Tanaka.
06:26Tanaka outweighed by almost 100 pounds here.
06:30Tanaka trying to shake it out.
06:44Collar and elbow tie-up once again.
06:46Side headlock brings Mahoney to his knees.
06:50Tanaka really wrenching in with the side headlock.
06:55Balls back up to a vertical base.
06:57Shoves off Tanaka.
06:58Shoulder block.
07:00Bad idea.
07:03Tanaka manages to stay on his feet.
07:05Ducks the clothesline.
07:07Lands a trifecta of elbows.
07:13That one staggered balls.
07:15But Tanaka went down.
07:17Clothesline!
07:18Down goes the native of Nutley, New Jersey.
07:25Tanaka now mounting an offense.
07:28Chopping away.
07:32Irish whip reversed out of the corner.
07:36Power slam.
07:37Beautifully executed with authority.
07:39Hooks the leg.
07:39No.
07:40Two count only.
07:42Says John Peewee Moore.
07:50Scoop and a slam.
07:51Great power by Balls Mahoney.
07:54Balls now ascending the turnbuckles.
08:02Misses the New Jersey jam.
08:09And now it's Tanaka waiting on Mahoney.
08:11Tanaka going all the way up top.
08:13Missile drop kick caught Mahoney right in the shoulder.
08:19And the Pescara all the way to the floor.
08:28This could be dangerous.
08:31There's no pretty padding on the floor.
08:33Tanaka hits the steel and hard.
08:39Not far from where our next pay-per-view will be broadcast from.
08:48Right here in New Orleans, it's our annual showcase event.
08:53The November to Remember Sunday night, November the 1st.
08:56Not only available on pay-per-view cable television, also on USSB satellite, and in Japan for the first time, on Perfect Choice TV.
09:10The most widely viewed pay-per-view in ECW history will be the November to Remember.
09:18A few more shots like that to the head.
09:23Mahoney won't remember this matchup.
09:25Issa! Issa! Issa! Issa! Issa! Issa!
09:32Tanaka now back on the attack, on the outside.
09:38Ball thrown back in.
09:39Ball thrown in.
09:47Mahoney is staggered.
09:50The roaring elbow.
09:51He missed the roaring elbow.
09:53Bell in a back suplex.
09:55Tanaka told everybody in the building he was going for the roaring elbow.
09:59Mahoney knew it as well.
10:00This shouldn't be altered.
10:01No!
10:03Put across the bottom rope.
10:04Tanaka was folded up like an accordion as a result of that belly-to-back suplex.
10:19Baoni scoots up Tanaka, glances him.
10:26Balls again, climbing the turnbuckles.
10:33Oh my god!
10:35No! Tanaka kicks out of a 350-pound frog splash.
10:43That's the biggest damn frog I've ever seen.
10:50And Balls is going up once again.
10:53But he gets caught.
10:55Right hand to the temple.
10:57Tanaka going up top.
11:00Cinching up Mahoney.
11:03What impact on the superplex!
11:06Can Tanaka capitalize?
11:09Player on press.
11:11Two.
11:12No!
11:13Mahoney gets the left shoulder up.
11:16Tanaka again signaling for the elbow.
11:19This time going up top.
11:24But he gets caught.
11:25Straight right hand to the chin.
11:26Nothing fancy about it.
11:27And now it's Balls climbing the turnbuckles.
11:40Hammering Tanaka behind the ear.
11:42And Balls hits a superplex.
11:46And Balls hits a superplex.
11:47Hooks the leg.
11:51No!
11:52Tanaka manages to kick out again.
11:55Back to the set for the ride.
11:56No reversal.
11:57This is the roaring elbow.
11:58At that time, Eden!
11:59And Balls kicks out!
12:00Tanaka looks stunned.
12:02The roaring elbow has put away so many of his opponents in Japan.
12:09Of course, Mahoney has a jaw of granite.
12:10Tanaka leaps right into a superkick.
12:16And Mahoney, the athletic super heavyweight surprise stunned.
12:45Stunned! Caught Tanaka off guard with that super kick!
12:51Tanaka has a steel chair, and so does Mahoney!
13:01They miss!
13:05He's still on his feet!
13:10Oh my god!
13:14It's in Tanaka's finish!
13:21Are you kidding me?!
13:26How his brains aren't all over that chair is beyond me!
13:30And he kicks out on top of it!
13:37This is insane!
13:39That was inhuman!
13:41Look at that chair!
13:44And Mahoney kicks up!
13:47We see it up!
13:48We see it up!
13:50We see it up!
13:51We see it up!
13:53We see it up!
13:55We see it up!
13:56We see it up!
13:57This is anybody's matchup!
14:00match-ups. Both athletes have to pretty much be out on their feet. How in the hell do
14:08human beings withstand that much physical punishment? Tanaka gets crutched. Mahoney's
14:22setting up a chair. He can barely stand. He's on spaghetti legs.
14:39Ball's got caught. Tornado DDT. No. Powerbomb on the chairs. And Tanaka kicks out again.
14:51Regardless of who wins this match-up, both athletes' stock has risen as a result of this war.
15:02Tanaka set for the ride. Tornado DDT. Mahoney gets spiked on the steel. Cover. Hook of the legs. And over.
15:15Asato Tanaka keeps his unblemished record here in ECW intact. And
15:34Balls Mahoney just showed the entire wrestling world, the entire free world, why they should all be afraid of him.
15:42And Mahoney is back on his feet. They embrace a mutual display of respect by two world-class athletes who damn near killed each other here in New Orleans.
16:07We won't be far from this building for our next pay-per-view. The first ECW pay-per-view available not only in North America, but in Japan as well.
16:18The biggest pay-per-view in ECW history. The sixth annual November to remember. Live November 1st, 1998.
16:30God, I love ECW.
16:31God, I love ECW.
16:32I want to stop this whole production, Joey Styles. I want to stop just for 60 seconds. I want to take one minute of ECW valuable airtime to catch in a marker that somebody owes Bill Alfonso, Joey Styles.
16:55Somebody owes you a favor?
17:02You got about one minute before I choke your chicken ass out, so we can't talk about what's up.
17:20And I'll catch it in my marker right now, so put your hand in mine right now, and let's make this a done deal, tag.

18:28A new triple quick.
18:29A new triple quick.
18:30I know you want it. I'll tell you what. About four years ago, you threw down another so-called fake belt champ called the end of the weight belt. So I'll tell you what, punk, why don't you throw this belt down right now unless you ain't got the balls.
18:49You're talking about Shane Douglas having no balls. Everybody knows he's got a about this big. And I know Francine Stein for me to have sex with her with his microphone and it's not over.
19:19I know Francine Stein for me to have sex with her. I know Francine Stein for me to have sex with her.
19:49I know Francine Stein for me to have sex with her. I know Francine Stein for me to have sex with her.
20:20You people have pushed him way too far. He is the ECW World Heavyweight Champion. He is the franchise and he is the leader of the only triple threat here in ECW. You have pushed him way too far.
20:35Oh my God! I can't believe it. I mean, can you imagine what that...
20:47You know that fine line between courage and stupidity? That was it! Oh, Justin takes the Singapore game! Jason eats it!
20:57Well, I can tell you this much. At some point, Nicole Best! Nicole Best in the ring! Side Russian leg sweep with the cake! And it's Justin with the Sandman's cake!
21:14This is history! We've seen Sandman take beatings before, but never, never before! And by nobody, and I mean nobody, has ever beaten the Sandman down with his own stick like this!
21:24Just incredible! Just incredible! Just incredible!
21:45Just incredible said he wanted to be a player! He wanted to be a top dog! Well, now he is! Well, now he is! But at what price? What price will just incredible pay for what he had done to the Sandman?
21:59And most importantly, just incredible! Sandman's chastity! Give it to me! Sandman, I beat you in your home, the house that you built at the ECW arena! Sandman, I even beat you in a Singapore caning match!
22:25I don't gotta put up with no cigarette smoking, beer drinking, cake swinging! My man Jason, he's got international contacts all over the world, and especially right here in New Orleans!
22:41So I don't gotta put up with any more of your stupid idiotic crap! No more beer!
22:50Please, shut the f**k up! Hey!
22:54Hey, hey, hey, hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
22:56Brother, who are you having problems with?
22:59The Sandman!
23:01Come on, brother.
23:11Come on, brother. What do you think I'm a f***ing G-Broni?
23:20Come on!
23:22Pay the man. Pay the guy. Pay the man.
23:27From this point on, brother, your problems are solved.
23:33And that camera right there needs to be turned off.
23:38Welcome back!
23:39Shut up! You give no cues to the franchise around here.
23:42We give all the cues, understand?
23:44We're sick and damn tired of being pushed around by you fools here in ECW, especially you styles.
23:50There's only one triple threat here in ECW, and it ain't Taz, Sabu, and Van Damme.
23:55It's led by me, and now that I've had my back put up against the wall,
23:59I'm going to prove to all of you fools here that I'll be back a hell of a lot sooner than any of you pea brains ever thought.
24:05Yeah, I told you so!
24:09Let's go!
24:27Why do they keep doing that with her?
24:43I swear that's a rib on me.
24:46My God, I'll be up all night.
24:49Well, I recognize the entourage.
24:52Nicole is now burning to my memory.
24:55It's just incredible.
24:57You know, if Jack Victory took the payoff from Jason
25:01and delegated his responsibility to that man,
25:06if that's who I think that is,
25:09then the Sandman could be in for a very long evening.
25:19You know something?
25:20All of you idiots here are spending
25:26the Sandman to come through that curtain
25:30and kick my ass.
25:39But guess what?
25:41I've beaten the Sandman in his home at the ECW arena,
25:50and I even beat him in his own style of match.
25:54So what I went out and did is I got the best help that my money can buy.
26:06And believe you me, I got a hell of a lot of money.
26:09Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce the biggest, baddest, meanest son of a
26:19on the face of the face of the planet,
26:21broken Rod Price.
26:24That's Rod Price.
26:27The last time I saw him, he was the California stud.
26:32He had long blonde hair and pastel tights, and he was making a name for himself
26:38after splitting up with his tag team partner, Stone Cold Steve Austin.
26:43I had heard that Price went down for a short tour of duty in Memphis,
26:48that he's won some powerlifting competitions.
26:51But apparently, he has been hired strictly to kick the Sandman's X.
26:58We are gonna have one hell of a fight tonight.
27:02For the five years that I've been broadcasting for Extreme Championship Wrestling,
27:11I've always heard the rumors that Rod Price was coming in any day now.
27:15For five years, his name has been bandied about in the locker room.
27:19For five years, I figured he would just show up any given night.
27:24But he picked his spot, he waited his turn.
27:27And tonight,
27:29Brung and Rod Price makes his ECW debut against the most popular athlete ever.
27:36In Extreme Championship Wrestling, three-time former ECW Heavyweight Champion,
27:43The Sandman.
27:57Where is the extreme eye cut?
28:06Where is the extreme eye cut?
28:14Where is the extreme eye cut?
28:27The Sandman doesn't seem to be fanged by rugged Rod Price.
28:32He's sticking to his pre-match ritual.
28:37The unfiltered cigarette, and
28:41being inebriated beyond all recognition.
28:50Great shot over the shoulder of the Sandman.
28:53Look at what is waiting for him.
28:57Better have another one, for a four.
29:14The Sandman looking at not only his opponent, rugged Rod Price,
29:18who apparently has been dispatched by Jack Victory, but
29:24also just incredible, who has managed to stay one step ahead of him,
29:30and just his entire entourage as well.
29:34As he put all that beer!
29:37Oh!
29:39Oh!
29:49As he put all that beer!
29:50Oh!
29:51Every fan here in New Orleans on their feet for this matchup.
30:07Of course, when climbing on objects that were not meant to be climbed upon,
30:25it's important to be as drunk as possible.
30:28A little safety tip from your old pal, Joey.
30:37Ever since the night the line was crossed, February 5th, 1994,
30:42the night he threw his surfboard away and began smoking and drinking in public,
30:49but on television, the Sandman has been so unbelievably successful here at ECW.
30:58But it has got to be driving him nuts that the 24-year-old punk from Ozone Park,
31:05New York, Justin Credible, now calls himself the hardcore icon.
31:11Boy, do these people want to see Justin Credible get his ass kicked!
31:30Again, the odds are stacked against the Sandman.
31:34I mean, not only Rugged Rod Price,
31:37but we don't have a whole hell of a lot of information on nothing that's recent.
31:43But Justin Credible and his entire entourage
31:46will no doubt be lingering around ringside.
31:51We stay here for one more.
31:53There are no disqualifications, and it is to an absolute finish.
31:58There must be a winner!
32:02He's introducing first, Justin Credible's Hitman,
32:08from Los Angeles, California, weighing 275 pounds,
32:14here is Rugged Rod Price!
32:20And his opponent!
32:27He is from Tampa, Florida,
32:31who is the hardcore icon,
32:36Chris is the Sandman!
32:41ECW! ECW! ECW! ECW!
32:45ECW! ECW!
32:47This won't be pretty!
32:53If you're a fan of Lucha Libre Wrestling,
32:55too bad!
32:57Guys, this ain't it!
32:59This is gonna be an old-fashioned fight!
33:02Fists, boots,
33:05God knows what else!
33:08Rugged Rod Price versus the hardcore icon,
33:12the Sandman,
33:13and Justin Credible
33:15has got to be loving it!
33:19Yet another obstacle!
33:21Keeping the Sandman away from Justin Credible!
33:26The Sandman telling everyone here in New Orleans
33:40that Nicole Bass is a man!
33:42I don't know if she is or she isn't,
33:47but we know the beer hasn't affected his vision all that much!
33:57Referee Jim Molyneux has the unenviable task
33:59of getting that Singapore cane out of the Sandman's hand
34:02before the match starts!
34:06Whether or not it'll stay out of his hand
34:07for the duration of the matchup
34:08is another question altogether!
34:13Just Incredible distracts the Sandman!
34:16Sandman going after Justin Credible!
34:18Rod Price with a clothesline off the apron!
34:21A well-executed plan!
34:25That wasn't an accident!
34:28Oh, my God!
34:31The back of the Sandman's skull,
34:33I mean, right above the neck
34:35and the cervical area
34:37cracks the steel guardrail!
34:40That's how Arn Anderson's wrestling career came to an end!
34:45It's an injury to that region!
34:48Upside down into the steel,
34:51the Sandman's head whacks the floor!
34:55And so far in his ECW debut,
34:59Rugged Rod Price has been most impressive to say the least!
35:04And the Sandman takes the steel chair right between the eyes!
35:11Rod Price is certainly making a statement
35:15in his first ECW contest!
35:18ECW! ECW! ECW! ECW! ECW!
35:21The Sandman thrown back in!
35:24He doesn't look too good!
35:26There's a fist to the ear!
35:32Rod Price just measuring those shots!
35:36Leg drop! Impactful leg drop!
35:40Lateral press! Price says that's all but no!
35:44There's a boot right between the shoulder blades!
35:50And the Sandman thrown to the outside once again!
35:54And now Justin Fettable comes into play!
35:57Straight right hand!
35:59Jason with the roundhouse!
36:03And the Sandman thrown back in!
36:07Rod Price up to the second turnbuckle!
36:13And drives the Sandman down like a railroad spot!
36:19This contest one fall to a positive finish!
36:24It will continue until one man is declared the winner
36:27by pinfall submission two count only!
36:33And the Sandman credit is being very resilient!
36:36He's had to deal with not only this monster rugged Rod Price
36:40but the entourage as well!
36:43He's gotta look up and see Nicole Bass!
36:45That's gotta be dramatic in itself!
36:50Rod Price stomping the fingers of the Sandman!
36:55Price very thorough in his dispatching of pain in this matchup!
37:01Sandman's up for the ride!
37:03Down he goes!
37:05Look at the shoulders on Rod Price!
37:09Look at the shoulders on Rod Price!
37:11Arrogant lateral press!
37:16Sandman up to his feet!
37:19All of Avery Wobbly again thrown to the outside!
37:22Looking for him the steel guardrail broke his fall!
37:26And again it's Justin and Jason on the outside!
37:33Laying into the Sandman!
37:35Jastity ran interference!
37:39This has been a well orchestrated play of The Spark!
37:43Series of elbows to the midsection!
37:47And a knee!
37:49Which may have been a little low!
37:51Floors the hard core I got!
37:56Sandman now being choked on the bottom rope!
37:59Strong Ashter!
38:03Jack and Jason eric win!
38:07Rod Price again, very thorough in this matchup!
38:15Sam and Jason eric in
38:15Stanman's chest and those massive forearms!
38:16amentos of customer faze!
38:18That's really nice!
38:19What Device is indeed!
38:20And there's just incredible talking trash.
38:27And Jason with yet another cheap shot.
38:31This time Nicole Bass ran interference.
38:41Sandman still fighting back.
38:45Throws Rod Price to the outside.
38:50And the Sandman's going outside after Price.
39:06Scooping a slam on the outside.
39:16Oh my God, table suplex.
39:19That caught Rod Price in the head.
39:29And now the Sandman in control of this matchup.
39:33At least for the moment.
39:41Southpaw fires back.
39:44Flooring rugged Rod Price.
39:46Down goes Price again.
39:55Sandman picking his shots.
39:59Well-placed punches.
40:06Now smacking the chest of rugged Rod Price.
40:10Nicole Bass shouting encouragement to Price.
40:25My God, she's a freak even for Bourbon Street.
40:31Oh my God, she's a freak even for Bourbon Street.
40:33Oh my God, a headbutt to the groin and Rod Price smacks the floor.
40:48Rod Price went hurtling to the floor and smacked hard with a sickening thud.
40:55People shouldn't make that sickening.
40:57People shouldn't make that sickening.
40:58People shouldn't make that sickening.
41:03They dropped.
41:09And the Sandman put away rugged Rod Price.
41:13He has absorbed so much punishment.
41:15DDT coming up perhaps.
41:17Jason signaling chastity.
41:19She distracts Molotov.
41:22Jason misses with the cane.
41:24DDT on Jason.
41:27Price misses with the cane.
41:30Side brush and leg sweep.
41:32The cane across the throat of Rod Price.
41:39And the Sandman nails Price.
41:43Nails Jason.
41:45The Sandman's gonna finish off rugged Rod Price.
41:48And win this matchup.
41:52Here it comes.
41:54No, Justin Credible gets in the ring.
41:57He wants the Sandman now.
41:59Suddenly, there's Jack Victory.
42:03That's Justin Credible's mercenary.
42:05Jack Victory attacks the Sandman.
42:10Jack Victory, Justin Credible's head mercenary is in the ring.
42:15The Sandman's set up.
42:18And Justin Credible is destroying the Singapore cane.
42:26It's Tommy Dreamer.
42:35The innovator of violence saves the Sandman.
42:39Tommy Dreamer and the Sandman fighting off Justin Credible.
42:50And it's fucked.
42:54Wait a minute.
42:54Someone just came through the entranceway.
42:58It's the one man gang.
43:03It's the one man gang.
43:05The one man gang has been paid off by Jack Victory as well.
43:09Jack Victory spending the money wisely has brought the one man gang to ECW to take out the Sandman.
43:23Oh, my God.
43:27Oh, my God.
43:29The gang may have collapsed Dreamer's ribcage.
43:32The Sandman suffers the same fate.
43:45Jack Victory.
43:47Oh, my God.
43:48Oh, my God.
43:49Oh, my God.
43:50Oh, my God.
43:50Oh, my God.
43:50Oh, my God.
43:51Oh, my God.
43:51Oh, my God.
43:52Oh, my God.
43:53Here comes the cavalry led by little Spike Dudley.
44:01But the one man gang is a monster.
44:06A monster of the mercenary.
44:20I mean, I love Spike as much as an X-Fan, but...
44:24I mean, discretion is the better part of valor.
44:30And the one man gang is just hammering little Spike Dudley.
44:37I mean, how much weight can you give up?
44:41Not just weight, but experience.
44:44The one man gang is no rookie.
44:48He's a monster who's been around the loop a few times.
44:52Now strangling Spike Dudley with a chain.
44:55Look at Jason's a mess.
44:56The locker room has rallied behind Spike.
45:02What a good...
45:03Oh, that was low.
45:09Acid drop.
45:10Acid drop.
45:12Acid drop.
45:13He got him.
45:16You can talk about your badasses.
45:18You can talk about your killers.
45:20But at barely 5'5 and 150 pounds, Spike Dudley has better be at the top of that list.
45:29Because he is professional wrestling's true giant killer.
45:38Welcome to ECW.
45:43I'm the franchise.
45:45I'm the ECW World Heavyweight Champion.
