Highlights of last weeks happenings with World Champion The Franchise Shane Douglas. Shane Douglas says that Ron Simmons can do all the things he did to Vader and Flair to him but wont beat him. Douglas tells Flair its time for him to retire. Douglas says the fire in Flair is gone and its time to stamp it out like a cigarette. Shane says since Flair doesnt have the guts to pick up the phone and call him the wont say his name again. Pffffft Yea right. Douglas says he will mention another WCW wrestler but these guy has the guts to come to ECW and face him man to man and that guy is Ron Simmons. Douglas says that after this Saturday night Simmons is just another notch in his belt of beaten opponents.

Opening video.

911 killed the Young Dragons in under a minute with a double chokeslam. Joey Styles questions if 911 bite off more then he can chew when he goes up against the Pitbulls at Holiday Hell this Saturday.

Ironman Tommy Cairo announces The Virgin Princess Angel as his new manager.

Joey hypes the main event at Holiday Hell between Champion Shane Douglas and Ron Simmons. Simmons says he is going to show Douglas what its like to feel the emotion he used to feel making a game winning tackle. Simmons talks about how good it feels to be champion. Think this might be the same promo they used a few weeks ago.

We go to clips of Sabus injuries over the past few weeks. From there we go to November 19th when Tag Team Champions Public Enemy attacked Sabu and Tazmaniac during their match. Sabu and Tazmaniac repaid the attack during the PEs match with Cactus Jack and Kevin Sullivan.

Johnny Grunge says that no one is more Extreme then PE. Grunge says their beef is with Sabu and Paul E but Tazmaniac got in the way and he is going to suffer. Flyboy Rocco Roc says they are taking about Taz and Sabu. Good promo from Grunge who gets the least mic time out of the two.

Paul E joins Styles. Paul he hypes the 911 Pitbulls match and says all that it takes is him dialing three numbers. Paul says whats really on his mind is PE. Paul E talks about violence in society. He pulls out a wad of cash and says that PE loves cash and to get it they have to go through Taz and Sabu and he doesnt think they can do it. Taz and Sabu are going to bring to much violence.

They briefly go to the mixed tag team match but then cut to the locker room where Cactus Jack and Mikey Whipwreck are. Mikey says sorry to Jack for letting Kevin Sullivan turn on him. Mikey then runs away. Cactus says he is most mad at Sullivan for not telling him that he was going to go after Hulk Hogan because he would have stayed and helped. Woman shows up and tells Jack to watch out what he says about her husband. Sandman attacks from behind with the cane. Joey says Sandman is on his way to the ring for a dueling cane match with Tommy Dreamer but Cairo never got out of the ring from the last match. Nice they just made up a match for TV that was never actually a thing. They show the beat down of Dreamer and Cactus. Joey tells us that added to Holiday Hell is Cactus and Dreamer against Sandman and Cairo. Cactus and Dreamer are in the locker room and Cactus says he has put wrestler out just for fun. But Woman and Sandman have actually given him a reason. Jack talks about Dreamer becoming a man and that Jack doesnt care about losing body parts cause the more he loses the less has to lose.

My thoughts on the show…
I love the week before the big show. It’s basically what would have been the “Preshow” had the show been on PPV. Good promos from everyone tonight. No matches though so if you like straight hype check this one out.

Richards and Pitbull 1 start off. Pitbull powers Richards into a corner and pounds on him. Richards moves out of the way of a charge and goes after the arm. Richards goes for a super kick but gets his leg swept out. Pitbull 2 tags as does Smith. Smith uses his speed to hit a super kick and cross body. Pitbulls however use their size advantage to gain control. They go after the forever injured knee of Smith. They go to the floor and brawl. After what feels like hours Smith with a clothesline and tag. Richards with lots of super kicks. He even turns and accidentally nails Smith. Richards cant believe what he did and Pitbull 2 powerslams him for the win in 11.55. Smith is obviously upset and they argue a bit. Smith nails Richards and the ref calls for a bell.

Steve Richards vs. JT Smith, ref Jim Molineaux
Smith beats on Richards as the fans call for blood. Richards trips up Smith and covers with his feet on the rope for the win in .47.

Young Dragons vs. 911 (w/ Paul E Dangerously), ref Jim Molineaux
911 picks up the win in .41 after a double chokeslam. 911 with a few more after the match to keep the fans happy.

Al Snow vs. Tazmaniac, ref John Pee Wee Moore
Snow in his debut here. He locks on a headlock but Taz throws him off. A few minutes in and Taz knocks Snow to the floor. Jason comes out and begins to give Snow some pointers.

Snow then chases after the Pitbulls with a chair and falls down HA. In the ring Taz gives the ref a belly to belly.

World Champion The Franchise Shane Douglas vs. Hack Meyers, ref Jim Molineuax
Fans are anti Douglas chanting Pittsburgh sucks Shane gets on the mic and tells Meyers hes a piece of shit. Hack fires away on Shane and clotheslines him over the top rope. Hack all over Shane working the arm and trapping Shane in the corner. Meyers charges but Shane gets the boot up and throws Hack to the floor and hits a plancha.

Ironman Tommy Cairo & Angel vs. Tommy Dreamer & Peaches, ref John Pee Wee Moore
I don’t get why these guys didn’t join forces and decide that they hate Sandman more than they hate each other. Dreamer with a piledriver right out of the gate. The girls go at it and Dreamer pushes Angel and Peaches gets the 3 count in 2.24. Peaches chases Angel back and Sandman shows up. Sandman, Dreamer and Cairo all face off and Cairo and Sandman seem to work together to take out Dreamer. Cactus Jack tries to make the save and goes after Sandman but Cairo saves him. WHAAAAAAAAT!?! Cactus is left a bloody mess by Sandman.

Tag Team Champions Public Enemy vs. Hack Meyers & Mikey Whipwreck, ref Jim Molineaux & John Pee Wee Moore
Hack gets his second title shot in one night. Not very deserving of either of them. Cactus must be unable to compete. Two refs must mean its falls count anywhere. I didn’t hear if that was announced though so its just a guess. A few minutes into the fight Cactus Jack show up and Hack just wanders off. Cactus hits Johnny Grunge with a double arm DDT but Flyboy Rocco Rock breaks up the pin attempt. Cactus nails him with a DDT on a chair. Cactus drops the chair to the face of Rock but Rock just gets the shoulder up right before the 3. They brawl into the crowd. Things are wild and the fans are loving every second of it. Rock goes for a drive by through a table but it doesn’t break. He hits a second one off the table this time and gets a 1,2 3 in 10.10.

PE are in the dressing room with Commissioner Tod Gordon. Grunge is all bloody. They say they are done with Cactus and Mikey because its time to take out Tazmaniac and Sabu.

Cactus Jack and Tommy Dreamer talk about the beating they took from Sandman and Tommy Cairo.

Al Snow tells Tazmaniac that hes coming back after Tazmaniac.

Cactus gives a few autographs to kids after the show.

My thoughts on the show…
Cactus bleed like crazy for a house show. The promos at the end make me wonder if some of this will actually show up on TV which would explain the massive amount of blood from Cactus. All of the matches besides the Tag Title Match were either WAY to long or they lasted seconds. Tag was the only one that felt like it had a good time to it.

My thoughts on the show…

Brawl Game Match: Tag Team Champions Cactus Jack & Mikey Whipwreck vs. Public Enemy, ref Jim Molineuax
In case you dont remember the rules from last timeIf you take someone out for a 10 count your team gets bats to use. Pinfall wins the match. We cut to the start of the action.

PE get bats and begin to beat away on their opponents. They go to the floor and Roc stakes up tables and puts Mikey on them on the stage. Roc climbs to the top of the Eagle;s Nest. Sabu shows up and argues with Roc for stealing his shit. They get into a shoving match and Roc gets pushed through the table! A woman in the crowd shrieks as Roc is falling adding to the whole thing. All four men brawl on the stage now. Cactus up to the Nest. Elbow drop puts Roc through the table from the Nest!!!! In the ring Grunge comes off the top with the baseball bat to the face of Mikey! Grunge covers and gets the win and titles. 9.49 was shown with only the beginning with PE stalling cut. PE celebrates the start of their second reign as champions. Going from the beginning that is on the fan cam to where the match started on TV the total time of the match was 13.39.

Joey Styles tells us that Mikey has been taken out of the rematch on the 19th with a concussion. Cactus says he doesnt want to tag with anyone so he is asking for a singles match. Mikey says he cant let Jack do that because Mikeys mom says he cant come home until PE are out of wrestling. Jack is worried that the partner Mikey picked is going to turn on him. Mikey slaps Jack around and yells at him telling him he has to do it. Jack says he will and that his partner will be Kevin Sullivan! New Tag Team Champions Public Enemy rap and tell Paul E Dangerously they are going after him, Tazmaniac and Sabu. They tell Mikey and Cactus they are going to take them out. This promo seems to go on forever.

Paul E Dangerously is with Joey and he says that Roc has been a thief his whole life. He started by stealing candy and cars and now he is stealing moves. Paul E says if they want them they will be at the Arena on the 19th in the ring wrestling the Malenko brothers. Joey wants to know if Sabu will actually be there to wrestle on the 19th. They show the footage of Sabu breaking his neck at November to Remember. Paul E says Sabu will be there and that Chris Benoit can show up also if he wants a piece of Sabu. Paul E hypes Sabu and Taz and says they will never get hired in WCW or the WWF cause they are to extreme. We see clips of the Taz Dean Malenko match from N2R.

Sandman and Woman hype this Saturdays match with Tommy Dreamer with Ironman Tommy Cairo as the special guest referee and Peaches in the corner of Dreamer. We go into a music video to hype the match some more.

Joey runs down the story and brings us clips of what happened at November to Remember that lead to World Champion The Franchise Shane Douglas tagging with Stunning Steve Austin to take on 2 Cold Scorpio and Ron Simmons. Simmons and Scorpio talk about how they are bringing Douglas and Austin to the streets and they are going to show them what its like to grow up in a place youre not supposed to drive through. Simmons talks about how he has slapped multiple woman in his life and that he will slap more. Simmons says he is going to literally eat them for breakfast. He has LITERALLY taken punks in his hand and put them in his mouth. Simmons is so incredibly angry during this promo its LITERALLY awesome.

Some dude plays the extreme version of the national anthem. 911 comes out with Paul E and chokeslams the guy.

Joey hypes this weekends shows. Shane Douglas hypes this weekends match. Austin is the only man in WCW he would consider a competitor almost has good as he is. Sherri is coming back now that shes done with Flair who Douglas calls an old piece of crap. Douglas says he and Austin are the tag team of the decade and they are only going to have 1 match.

My thoughts on the show…
Tag title match was fun and both promos hyping the main event for Saturday were good and each had like 4 minutes to work with.

We go to last week and all the craziness that was the main event. They show everything from the pinfall on.

Back to the PE and they smash a car and stuff.

TV Champion 2 Cold Scorpio vs. Dean Malenko (w/ Jason), Ref John “Pee Wee” Moore (1994-11-04)
Before the match we get highlights from last week when Scorpio won the title from Jason. Scorpio pushes Malenko to the mat. Malenko rolls back nips-up and then gets rocked with a super kick from Scorpio. This was a pretty sweet looking sequences. They go to commercial. Nice test of strength spot that ends with Malenko hitting a body scissor as they get a nice hand from the crowd. Scorpio gets the arm of Malenko. Malenko fights out and goes after the leg and then locks in a STF. Scorp gets out and goes back to the arm. Scorpio comes off the top with a splash but Malenko kicks out.

Malenko with an awesome looking swinging neck breaker he covers for the 3 and the tittle!! 13.05 of the match was shown. So Scorpio was Champion for 1 week TV and probably like an hour real time.

Joey Styles tells us that Chad Austin is heading to the ring. Chad Austin says he was snubbed by his manager, partner and the fans so he is now going to the greatest promotion in the world SMW. He says the wrestlers and fans are better there. Shane Douglas comes out and Austin says even the athletes there are better. Douglas says Austin is a punk. Austin says SMW wants him to give Douglas something. Austin nails Douglas! Why would he do that?!?

World Champion “The Franchise” Shane Douglas vs. Chad Austin, ref John “Pee Wee” Moore (1994-11-04)
Shane with a belly to back and hanging vertical suplex. Douglas all over Austin. Douglas drives his forearm into the face of Austin and the ref gets the mic. Douglas tells Austin to say ECW is number 1. Bully. Austin says it and the ref calls for the bel in 2.15l. Wait what were the rules to this match? Douglas tells Austin to go tell all the rednecks the best wrestling is in ECW.

Joey talks about the feud between PE and Sabu. We go back to November to Remember where Sabu pushed “Flyboy” Rocco Roc through a table and we go through what has happened up to last week.

Tag Team Champion Public Enemy vs. Cactus Jack & Kevin Sullivan, ref Jim Molineaux (1994-11-19)
JIP and clipped. They fight all over the place and use many different weapons. It’s an all out brawl. Oars, chairs, cookie sheet, shovel and a crutch. Sullivan nails Johnny Grunge with the title belt. Jack with a double arm DDT on “Flyboy” Rocco Roc. Jack with a second. Cactus spits on the ECW title and Sullivan attacks him with the belt. The ref calls for the bell. Mikey Whipwreck comes out to help Cactus. Mikey goes right after Sullivan! Sullivan and PE beat on them and Mikey gets killed with a chair by Sullivan. Grunge with a reverse DDT and then they set Jack up on a table. Roc goes up top but Tazmaniac and Sabu hit the ring and go after PE. Sabu puts Grunge on a table and comes off the top with an arabian face buster. 2.58 of the match was shown.

My thoughts on the show…
Week after week ECW continues to entertain me. Very good opening match and a fun albeit short brawl to end it. Fans went crazy at the end when Taz and Sabu come out.
