Bubba goes up, but Tommy comes back and superplexes him for two. Format: DVD-R.
– Bigelow stands around yelling at the crowd, until New Jack’s music hits.
He introduces himself “on enemy turf.” We get the opening montage. The Lance Storm/Chris Candido-Hardcore Chair … Snow gets a “rave” style entrance complete with obnoxious camera work. An Al Snow backstage interview. Ballz & Axl were just not playing ball here, no-selling stuff at random. I get it, you’re ECW, you’re the rebels, you got to band together but that ending was trash.
Nothing great, but the crowd was hot, so it’s a successful opener. Meanie doing a Meaniesault onto nothing was awesome. Candido and Axl start, and Candido gets overpowered, but comes back with a hiptoss and armdrag.
Yes, yes he does. Oh, man, where to start?
But it’s cut off by the Sandman’s music, No! More working over Dreamer.
Douglas dropkicks him out again, however. Everyone has come out to watch the match. “Shut the music.” Taz says he’s the uncrowned champion and demands Douglas hand over the title… For some reason. Al Snow takes control and works over…. Bubba gets a backdrop suplex and clothesline, but Sign Guy throws powder at D-Von by mistake. Vince McMahon’s Original Idea For Mia Yim’s WWE Raw Segment Was... Lance Storm Comments On Dominik Mysterio, Roman Reigns & Retribution Angle, Paul Heyman Comments On Roman Reigns, Says He’s A “Roman Reigns Guy”, Paul Heyman Comments On Roman Reigns Partnership, Eight Years In The Making.
Nova hits Smothers with a missile dropkick and dumps Guido onto him, and then nails both of them with a plancha.
Axl and Candido in the ring.
This Tape offers...-Sabu vs. RVD in a 30 Minute TV Title War... unbelievable! Shane gives his usual “Shawn Michaels is an asshole who held me down” and “Ric Flair is an asshole who held me down” speeches and says that tonight may be his last match due to injuries.
Sorry, there was a problem saving your cookie preferences. They’re both also managed by heel Fonzy. All match scores are based on a 5 star scale. Crowd chants “balls whenever he connects with a move. The first ECW Pay-Per-View I ever saw was WrestlePalooza 1998. Incredible stall suplex on Axl. Dear god, I can’t stand juggles. CALL THE PRESS!
Credible then takes a bump over the guardrail onto a child that can’t be more then 8. The Bottom Line: This is generally considered the consensus favorite for “Worst ECW PPV Ever”, due to some truly uninspired booking and style clashes.
Candido/Storm come to the ring together but then Candido goes back…. Catapult into the chair gets two. Storm goes for the pin but Candido hits him with a chair. Heels continue to scuffle post match. Also, fuck Fonzy and his awful whistle gimmick. And it’s a 30:00 draw.
But irony strikes in the worst way, as Sandman gets whipped into it. The reaction Snow and Douglas get is great, but the match wasn’t anything spectacular. Heels bicker and RVD sneaks off with the title. Mikey gets dumped and they do some more brawling, which leads to a table getting set up and Justin getting suplexed through it.
Ѕ*, – ECW TV title: Rob Van Dam v. Sabu. Whippersnapper, but the cast of Rent runs in, does a musical number, and in the chaos Justin hits his piledriver for the pin at 9:52. Tag to Balls.
Post match, Bam Bam throws a trash bin at New Jack. 3.0 out of 5 stars ECW Wrestlepalooza 1998 review.
Meanie goes up and fends off Rich, but misses the Meaniesault. Douglas removes his arm brace. September 30, 2013.
Staff-July 16, 2014.
Total spot-rest-spot stuff here, with each guy getting hit with a killer, devastating move and then popping up to do his own 2 seconds later.
And Storm and Candido are just great. Heels and faces celebrate together in an absolutely fucking stupid ending. Guido wastes time insulting the crowd, so Nova hits him with an inverted electric chair, hot tag Meanie. New Jack had to be carried up the bleachers to jump off the balcony. Rob with the Gory Special, but he bridges too far and Sabu falls out of it. The Dudley’s were tagging in at one point but fuck it, now they’re just both in the ring.
Nova rollup gets two, and he gets an atomic drop and leg lariat. :-)-Al Snow's last Main Event in ECW against Shane Douglas!
Douglas cuts a “Douglas” promo.
Feels more like the beginning of a tv show then a ppv. A Douglas video package… That mentions Al Snow near the end.
Outside the ring, New Jack takes two chair shots to the head and juices. Now we’re repeating spots. Throughout the match, Fonzy shows subtle support for one guy over the other.
Candido breaks it up and pins Ballz himself at 12:02.
Faces win. It’s very non feud specific.
That’s usually a bad sign. A little more storytelling would have been nice as the spots were hot and heavy. Sabu chucking chairs at RVD every chance he gets. Crowd does some stupid chant about Chastity. Axl DDTs both guys, hot tag Ballz.
Kick out. They do a bit o’ brawling out there and head back in, where Sabu grabs an armbar. – Bam Bam Bigelow v. New Jack. Then a slingshot into a chair on the corner turnbuckle into a school boy. We cut back to the FBI midway into their entrance. Candido gets the pin. To everyone’s shock, Rob won the title, thus making the title match RVD v. Sabu. Axl with a sling shot Senton to the outside.
Why would either guy want him there if he could potentially double cross them? It’s around this point the entire ECW roster surrounds the ring. They brawl on the floor and Douglas gets dropped on the railing and crotched on the post. He’s being objective, you see. Pinfalls INC. Tumblr (Wrestling screencaps), Shoot Recap: Roddy Piper & Ric Flair Highspots Round Table.
I guess the whoosh of air was so strong that it knocked Bigelow over. Shane gives him an atomic drop, and Snow fails to take a big bump on the intricately staged chairs, succeeding only in knocking a couple down awkwardly. Fairly poor match but it had some fun moments and the crowd was hot for it.
That leads into a general ECW video package. There were a few botches but considering the match went a half hour, it’s forgivable. They both “behave badly” but have crowd pleasing offense. Back in, Sabu blocks a suplex from the apron and comes back with a moonsault, then suddenly ignores all the previous damage he took and goes on offense.
Sabu makes another random comeback and hits a triple-jump legdrop, for two. Taz is restrained by officials and out comes Bam Bam Bigelow. Sabu makes yet another miraculous comeback, but then falls dead on the table in perfect position again and Rob frog-splashes him. Whipwreck eats a sit out power bomb onto the chair.
Snow Plow gets two. Error: Twitter did not respond. Douglas and Snow lock up. I’m assuming it’s to give the feeling of “oh man, Snow is going to do it….” Even though Douglas is positioned as the underdog due to his injury and getting attacked by Taz earlier. This a long match with a lot of spots but on 6 or 7 occasions, Sabu just throws a chair in RVD’s face. *, – ECW Tag team title: Lance Storm & Chris Candido v. Axl Rotten & Ballz Mahoney.
Axl with a sunset flip for two, but he goes up and gets caught with a rana.
More brawling as both men make it back into the ring. The Dudleyz get put on the railing and have to stand there for like 30 seconds while Sandman sets up and legdrops them. FBI = Little Guido and Tracy Smothers w/ manager “the Don” Tommy Rich.
At one point, Whipwreck no sells the beating he’s taken to throw a chair at Credible…. Crowd hits Credible with an “Aldo” chant.
Nothing fancy as Whipwreck has his face smashed into a chair. He has a (shoot?) Rob suplexes him on the railing and guillotines him, but Sabu returns the favor. His eyes are glassy and vacant. He is an American entertainment producer, writer, performer, marketer, promoter, professional wrestling manager, and commentator. Sabu dives onto him in the crowd, instead. Welcome to the first (and hopefully not only) of my retro reviews. Dudley Boyz v Sandman & Tommy Dreamer (**): This match is an absolute mess.
They start to get introduced “Lance Storm and Chr…” but then Candido has a world with the ring announcer. But four years later, I think I’m finally ready to sit down and rant on it. Justin Credible v Mikey Whipwreck (****): What a brutal match.
It’s still Snow vs. Douglas as Snow’s insane rise in popularity continues. Sabu abruptly turns on Van Dam, however, and slugs away. Heels take control. Back in the ring, Candido tags himself in and chucks Storm to the outside. Mikey Whipwreck vs Justin Credible video package. The ending was horribly anticlimactic, with Candido breaking up the pin only to get it himself. The event took place on May 3, 1998 in the Cobb County Civic Center in Marietta, Georgia. Snow heads out with a quebrada onto Bigelow and Candido to get rid of them, so we relocate to the floor again. Rob Van Dam (C) v Sabu (*****): There’s psychology, spots, and a great crowd reaction. FBI v Blue Meania & Supernova (**): A solid comedy match at first, but then tries to be more serious.
