In honor of ECW Week on the WWE Network, we received a submission from one of our readers as they bring us a review of ECW’s inaugural Cyberslam.<\/p>\n
The Skinny on Cyberslam \u201996<\/strong><\/p>\n It was early on in the “Internet” breakout days for Pro Wrestling but those who Match #1: Dredd & Bad Crew vs. The Dirt Bike Kid, Dino Sendoff & Donn E. Thoughts: This match was pointless in my opinion, most of these guys \u2013 YES!!! this match serves a purpose after all. There may be no 911, but the Match #2: “The Greek God” Spiros Greco vs. El Puerto Ricano (Pable Marquez)<\/b> Thoughts: Being in shape doesn\u2019t always make you a star. Greco is HORRIBLE and Match #3: TAZ (w\/Bill Alfonso) vs. Joel Hartgood<\/b> Thoughts: Amazing how Taz\u2019s short matches meant so much and built him up so \u2013 After the bout some jobber faces come out to help Hartgood, Taz <\/b>hits a \u2013 They begin to tape an interview segment with Joey Styles<\/b> to open up the Match #4: Buh Buh Ray Dudley vs. Mr. Hughes<\/b> Thoughts: Well at least it didn\u2019t have time to suck. \u2013 Mustafa<\/b> heads to the ring to announce that New Jack<\/b> is once Match #5: Mustafa vs. The Headhunters<\/b> Thoughts: Not really a match, then again I only watched the Gangstas for New \u2013 Damien Kane talks some more shit and makes an open challenge to anyone in the Match 6: The Headhunters vs. The Bruise Brothers<\/b> Thoughts: At least they\u2019re keeping all the shit short. Horrible crapfest with a \u2013 Joey Styles<\/b> does yet another TV Show opening this time interviewing Match #7: JT Smith vs. Axl Rotten<\/b> Thoughts: Man Axl was jobbing to everyone. Smith was a card, one of the few Match #8: The Eliminators & Stevie Richards vs. The Pitbulls & Francine Thoughts: A lot of the match was simply mindless brawling all over the building Match #9: ECW Television Champ Too Cold Scorpio vs. Sabu<\/b> Thoughts: Definitely an ECW classic, and this was my first time watching it. I Match #10: Shane Douglas vs. Cactus Jack<\/b> Thoughts: Good match, nice to see yet another storyline stolen by the WWF(E) to Match #11: ECW Heavyweight Champion Raven vs. The Sandman<\/b> Thoughts: Match was shorter than the entrances. Kind of out of place on the After the bout the Blue Meanie<\/b> decides to stay in the ring to mock the Overall Thoughts: They fit most of the garbage into the first hour. Add in some Match of the Night: Too Cold Scorpio vs. Sabu: Hands down, this match stole the Recommendation & Final Rating: While the first hour isn\u2019t that great, the second In honor of ECW Week on the Network, we review Cyberslam ’96 with Sabu vs. Scorpio, Cactus Jack vs. Shane Douglas, Brian Pillman, Taz, more<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14820,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,40],"tags":[609,115],"class_list":["post-14819","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-reviews","tag-cyberslam","tag-ecw"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14819","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14819"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14819\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14830,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14819\/revisions\/14830"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14820"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14819"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14819"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14819"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
\nhad already became a part of it were definitely all ECW fans. So much so that
\nPaul Heyman created Cyberslam, an event where it asked all the fans from
\nCyberspace around the US to come together on the one night a year to be a part
\nof what was ECW, live at the ECW Arena. This was the very first annual of it\u2019s
\nkind, and no one was disappointed.<\/p>\n
\nAllen<\/b>
\nWell by the looks of the names in this match alone you\u2019d probably expect to see
\n911 head to ringside shortly, but he has just recently left the promotion so
\nwe\u2019re stuck here watching this enormous hunk of mookie stink. Shame on you Paul
\nE., for booking this match. As the match starts all 6-men are greeted with the
\nloudest and longest bit of jeers I\u2019ve ever heard. In fact the boo\u2019s didn\u2019t stop
\nuntil the matches end. Dredd is a large man and throws the smaller faces around
\nthe ring for a bit, adjusting his jeans in between each move. Dredd lays out
\nDirt Bike Kid with a press slam into a gut buster while one of those greasy Bad
\nCrew guys hits a Tiger Bomb on Donn E. Allen. Bad Crew then hit the HART ATTACK
\nfrom the top rope onto Allen for the almost painless finish.
\nWinners: Dredd & Bad Crew at 2:01<\/p>\n
\nsuck\u2026BADLY. Which is why the match was so short.
\nRating: They didn\u2019t f*ck up so I won\u2019t minus them anything. Somewhere between
\nDUD and 1\/4*<\/p>\n
\nSandman<\/b> hits the ring and canes the living shit out of everyone in sight to
\nthe crowd\u2019s (and my) delight. NICE! Way to go Sandman.<\/p>\n
\nPablo Marquez is labeled a rookie here, after coming off the Indy scene working
\nas Ubas. Not a damn clue who Spiros Greco is or where he went after this ONE
\nTIME ONLY (and thank God for it) bout. The crowd shits all over Greco who
\ndefinitely doesn\u2019t have an ECW style approach to this bout. Some chain wrestling
\nto start and Greco goes for a running kneelift but realizes he\u2019s on the wrong
\nside of Pablo and tries to spin in mid air to hit it and totally f*cks up. The
\ncrowd shits all over the blown kneelift so Greco decides to continue his 1980\u2019s
\noffense, which is followed by loud boo\u2019s after every move. Greco continues with
\nhis cheap heel spots until finishing Pablo off with a pump handle sidewalk
\nsuplex for the pin.
\nWinner: Spiros Greco at 4:24<\/p>\n
\nthis one time only appearance explains why he was never invited back. His heat
\nwasn\u2019t heel heat but more of “MAN YOU SUCK GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE RING SO WE
\nCAN WATCH THE NEXT DAMN MATCH” kinda heat. Poor Pablo.
\nRating: God Awful Garbage gets a big fat DUD<\/p>\n
\nThe Path of Rage continues\u2026Taz toys with Joel Hartgood for a bit which allows
\nJoel to get a sunset flip for 2. Taz is enraged and unleashes a Head & Arm
\nOverhead Belly to Belly TAZplex! DAMN, He shoulda done that more often. Taz
\nfollows up with a Hardway TAZplex and looks to have broken Hartgood\u2019s neck on
\nthat one. Lastly Taz applies the Kati Hajime TAZmission for the submission win.
\nWinner: Taz at 1:52<\/p>\n
\nhuge. It goes to show you, It\u2019s not how much time you have, but what you do with
\nit.
\nRating: Too short to be much but definitely wasn\u2019t horrible 1\/4*<\/p>\n
\ntrio of German TAZplexes on them for their troubles. This brings out Mikey
\nWhipwreck<\/b> who clobbers Bill Alfonso<\/b> and goes to work on Taz
\nmomentarily until Taz catches him with a Head & Arm TAZplex and the TAZmission.<\/p>\n
\nTV show version of Cyberslam when all of a sudden the lights go out. When the
\nlight come back on we see Brian Pillman<\/b> in the ring!!! Straight from WCW
\nit\u2019s a member of the Four Horsemen!!! The crowd marks out huge. Pillman states
\nhe\u2019s been fired from WCW and talks mad trash on Eric Bischoff. The crowd is
\nbehind Pillman until he says Eric Bischoff represents each and everyone of the
\nsmart marks\u2026pointing to the ECW crowd. All of a sudden we get a dead silence
\nhush from the crowd as they feel like assholes. Pillman gives his definition of
\na mark while dropping the F Bomb repeatedly. Pillman finishes the segment off by
\nsaying he was going to whip his thing out & piss on the ECW ring. Tod Gordon
\n& Paul Heyman<\/b> come in and state “this wasn\u2019t part of the deal”. Shane
\nDouglas<\/b> is part of the group of Anti-Pillman as well. Security attempt to
\nescort Pillman from the arena. A “fan” takes a swing at Pillman, so Brian grabs
\nhim and tosses him in the ring where he beats on him until Shane Douglas runs
\nPillman off. Shane Douglas decides to have a “Sit In” in the ring until security
\nejects Pillman from the Arena, which they finally do. WOW talk about a WILD
\nangle, in the words of Pat Patterson “The crowd was going BANANA for this”.<\/p>\n
\nI believe this is Mr. Hughes last match with the company as he even jobbed to
\nHack Myers some 3 weeks prior. Hughes attacks Dances with Dudley <\/b>before
\nthe bell and then attacks Buh Buh Ray Dudley. This brings in Big Dick Dudley<\/b>
\nwho breaks a crutch over Mr. Hughes back which allows Buh Buh to ascend the top
\nrope and hit a falling splash for the quick win.
\nWinner: Buh Buh Ray Dudley in 34 seconds<\/p>\n
\nRating: Complete DUD<\/p>\n
\nagain imprisoned, this time somewhere in Atlanta. However, Stafa agrees to meet
\nboth Headhunters<\/b> in a handicapped match. This brings out the HH\u2019s
\nmanager, Damien Kane<\/b> and his hotty Lady Alexander<\/b>. Kane offers
\nStafa a job as a bitch boy, but Stafa says the only job he wants is a handjob.
\nStafa has enough and begins to whale on Kane until the Headhunters hit the ring
\nto start the bout.<\/p>\n
\nThe Headhunters attack Mustafa quickly and nail a superplex and a top rope &
\nsplash respectively. It wasn\u2019t exactly Power & Glory but it got the job done as
\nStafa rolls out of the ring. No pinfall here so I dunno the actual outcome.
\nWinners: The Headhunters in 45 seconds after killing Stafa<\/p>\n
\nJack anyway
\nRating: Not really a match, DUD<\/p>\n
\nback. This brings out the Bruise Brothers<\/b>!!! The Bruises return to ECW!!!<\/p>\n
\nWe got a pair of twin brother tag teams going at it, and this is somehow still
\nmuch better than the Bruise Brothers\/Cole Twins bouts from WCW circa 1993. All 4
\nmen spill into the crowd early on. Shortly after we\u2019re back inside. One of the
\nfat Hunters hits a moonsault on Ron Harris, while Don Harris nails a boot on the
\nother Hunter. Both men cover, but the ref decides to count the Harris\u2019 cover
\ninstead of the Hunters and we have winners.
\nWinners: The Bruise Brothers at 3:54<\/p>\n
\npoor ending. The Hunters were on the way out, the Bruises just came in, they
\nshoulda won the bout without a questionable finish. Why does Damien Kane have a
\njob. I sincerely hope he works for free. Although I\u2019d totally pay his valet.
\nRating: The Garbage Continues, another total DUD<\/p>\n
\nTommy Dreamer <\/b>and his new woman, Beulah McGuillicutty<\/b>. Raven<\/b>
\nhits the ring shortly there after with his flunkies and his new chick, Kimona
\nWana Laya<\/b>. The Bruise Brothers<\/b> hit the ring to back up Dreamer, or so
\nit appears. SWERVE, SWERVE, SWERVE! The Bruises then attack Dreamer instead and
\nram his nuts into the ringpost, as part of the payback for Tommy stealing Beulah
\nfrom Raven and “knocking her up”. Quick segment, kinda rushed, but served it\u2019s
\npurpose.<\/p>\n
\nSmith and Axl were set to team just a few weeks prior but JT Smith turned on Axl
\nRotten before the bout even started. Smith KO\u2019d Axl with the microphone after
\nand viola, insta-feud. Smith is in the early stages of his “Italian Stallion”
\ngimmick, with the FBI waiting in the wings. Axl plows over Smith for a while
\nwith weapons on the outside. Now inside the ring JT takes a wicked ass backdrop
\nand continues to bump like crazy for Axl until Rotten misses an Avalanche. JT
\ncounters with a goofy twisting splash that looks so horrible I\u2019m not sure if he
\nmeant to make it look shitty for heat or not. JT goes out for a chair and grabs
\none before heading to the top rope. JT climbs to the top but falls off like a
\ncluts (he made this his gimmick after actually falling once during a match a few
\nmonths prior). Axl turns to laugh at the crowd but JT is FAKING IT!!! JT gets up
\nbehind Axl\u2019s back and nails him with the chair for the win. After the bout Smith
\nhits a moonsault with a chair onto Axl for good measure. Hack Myers<\/b> comes
\nin for the save with some “SHAH” Punches chasing Smith all the way to the back.
\nWinner: JT Smith at 6:07<\/p>\n
\ncomedy acts I really enjoyed, yet could always work when he needed to as well.
\nRatings: Both men have had better matches but JT\u2019s overselling helped. *1\/4<\/p>\n
\n(Triple Dog Collar Match)<\/b>
\nThe Eliminators are currently in a feud with the PitBulls while Stevie Richards
\nis semi feuding with Francine because she is his “ex-girlfriend”. The bell
\nsounds as Franny spits on Stevie. Richards retorts but Superkicking her right of
\nthe bat. YEAH show that bitch who\u2019s boss Stevie! And the Eliminators now hit the
\nPower & Glory Superplex\/Splash combo on Pitbull 1 for a 2 count. We get alot of
\nbrawling and choking with chains early on. The PitBulls amount a comeback on the
\nEliminators but Richards nails them with several superkicks from behind and
\nwe\u2019re back to brawling on the floor. A few chairshots later and we\u2019re in the
\ncrowd. The Eliminators head up onto Joey Styles commentary platform and Kronus
\nuses his hands to propel Saturn with a moonsault onto PitBull #2 on the floor.
\nShortly after PitBull #1 suplexes Kronus through a table. All 4 men head back to
\nringside where Stevie Richards is standing with a frying pan. PB1 clocks
\nRichards to make the save before Stevie could nail Francine. PB1 then hits a top
\nrope frankensteiner on Kronus for 2. The Elims hit stereo powerbombs on the
\nPitBulls and go after Francine. Eliminators try Total Elimination on Franny but
\nPB1 makes the save. The PB\u2019s then take control and hit both Saturn & Kronus with
\nthe SUPERBOMB! The PB\u2019s then grab Richards and hit a Superbomb\/Neckbreaker combo
\nthat is just totally wicked. Francine finally crawls over and covers Richards
\nfor the win. Following the bout the Eliminators get their heat back by hitting
\nTOTAL ELIMINATION on both PitBulls and Francine.
\nWinners: Francine & The PitBulls at 14:00<\/p>\n
\nwith spots thrown in at the beginning, middle & end. Okay match, woulda been
\nbetter without Stevie & Francine IMO. That was just overkill.
\nRating: **1\/4 considering the type of match it was<\/p>\n
\nSabu gets a title shot for no apparent reason other than he is an ECW legend and
\nthis is definitely an Extreme Dream Match if you will. The duo start right off
\nexchanging blows until Sabu bring in a chair for AIR SABU and then dropkicks Too
\nCold Scorpio off the ring apron into the railing. Sabu hits a wicked looking
\nsomersault dive over the top rope and into the crowd. Back inside an Arabian
\nlegdrop gets two which allows TCS to gather his thoughts and nail Sabu with a
\nvicious powerbomb. Scorp now with a top rope legdrop and then brings in a chair
\nof his own. TCS bulldogs Sabu into the chair, and tries for a second one but
\nSabu reverses it. Sabu leaps off the chair and nails a Cactus Clothesline
\nsending both men over the top to the floor. Sabu with another somersault dive
\nfrom the apron this time onto Too Cold. Back inside Scorpio regains control
\nafter use of a chair and nails a STINGER SPLASH. Scorp tries a Rock Bottom but
\nSabu counters out of it, the duo continue to fight, TCS then tries an Ocean
\nCyclone Suplex to which Sabu again reverses with a victory roll for 2. Sabu
\napplies the camel clutch to slow things down, TCS fights his way out but Sabu
\ngets right back on top with a chinlock of sorts. Scorp breaks out again this
\ntime using the old kick to the nuts. Too Cold slaps on the Mexican Surfboard but
\nSabu will not quit. Scorpio releases the hold which allows Sabu to retort with a
\nslingshot somersault legdrop for a close fall. Scorpio\u2019s having none of Sabu and
\ntakes control again and attempts his Picture Perfect Moonsault but Sabu gets his
\nknees up. Sabu pops up and hits the Arabian Facebuster for a 2 count. Sabu with
\nsome more suicidal stuff and injures himself in the process. Scorpio sees an
\nopening and blasts Sabu with a chair. TCS toys with Sabu for a few minutes and
\ngoes up top but misses the inside out splash. Sabu somehow now positions Scorp
\nfor a victory roll off the top rope for another near fall. TCS is up and charges
\nat Sabu but is backdropped to the floor. Sabu follows up with a suicide dive and
\ntries for a Mike Awesome\/JT Smith #2 on the landing. Back inside the guys are
\ndrained but are still going at it. Scorpio tries some kinda Samoan Drop but Sabu
\ncounters and both men fall over the top rope. Sabu hits an Asai on Scorpio (more
\nlike the guardrail but whatever). Sabby lays TCS on a table in the crowd. Sabu
\ntakes a running start and leaps off a chair into the crowd but Scorp moves and
\nSabu goes THROUGH THE TABLE!!! Somehow both guys make it back inside the ring,
\nScorp tries a Doctor Bomb but Sabu counters with huracan rana. Sabu again with
\nan Asai in the ring for a 2 count. Sabu tries a moonsault but TCS gets out of
\nthe way. Scorp hits a powerbomb and goes up top for the moonsault legdrop which
\nhe calls “DA BOMB” but it somehow only gets a two!!! At that point I\u2019d be
\nchanting bullshit but hey it\u2019s Sabu in ECW so I guess it\u2019d believe able. TCAS
\nplaces a chair on Sabu\u2019s face and lands a legdrop from the top onto Sabby for
\nthe ONE, TWO. NOOOO. WTF?!?!?!?, all right this is getting ridiculous. Scorp
\ntakes too long for his next move and Sabu pops up and nails a huracan rana off
\nthe top rope butonly gets a two. Both men are dead tired but Scorpio somehow
\nstill pulls out the 450 Splash but fails to go for a cover. TCS goes back up and
\ntries with a diving chairshot but misses. Sabu returns the receipt and ledrops
\nthe chair onto Scorp\u2019s face with 30 seconds left in the time limit. Sabu nails
\nthe slingshot somersault legdrop for a two count as the time expires.
\nResult: 30 Minute Time Limit Draw<\/p>\n
\nwas very impressed with the match, one of Sabu\u2019s better nights for sure.
\nCouldn\u2019t believe some of Sabu\u2019s kickouts but then I remembered, it was 1996 ECW
\nso I let it go.
\nRating: Not quite a 5 star battle but it does deserve at least ****<\/p>\n
\nThis match is just weeks prior to the in ring debut of “Mankind” in the WWF.
\nCactus Jack is in full Anti-Harcore mode here and Shane Douglas wants a piece of
\nhim to make him change his mind. Your referee is Mark Curtis\u2026err Brian
\nHildebrand. Cactus enters the ring in a suit and Shane attacks CJ using the tie
\nas a weapon. The suit finally comes off and Cactus gets a little revenge on
\nDouglas before Shane cuts him off and low blows Cactus with a crutch. Shane
\nfollows up with a double axe handle to the floor and several shots with a
\ncrutch. Douglas suplexes Cactus onto the gaurdrail and then hits a dive into the
\ncrowd. YES that\u2019s right Douglas did some form of a dive into the crowd. Shane
\nwraps Cactus\u2019 leg in a chair and tries to Pillmanize it. Jack finally gets up
\nand and hits a few chauirshots on Douglas and drops a couple Dick Murdoch elbows
\nonto Shane\u2019s throat on the ring apron. Cactus places a table on top of Shane and
\nnails a Cactus elbow, very different that\u2019s for sure. Jack hits a drop toehold
\non Shane into a chair for two. Cactus now with a stuff piledriver for another
\nnear fall. Cactus starts whaling away on Shane in the corner and as referee
\nHildebrand pushes Cactus back he also hands off some handcuffs to Shane Douglas.
\nWHAT AN EVIL ASS REFEREE!!! Shane then lasts Cactus with them and cuffs Jack\u2019s
\nhands behind his back. Uh Oh, you know what\u2019s coming now\u2026Long before the Rock,
\nCactus is cuffed with nowhere to go and Douglas begins blasting Foley with
\nseveral chairshots. Shane tries to get Cactus to say I QUIT but Jack refuses and
\ncalls out for Mikey Whipwreck, his former tag team partner before beating the
\nliving crap out of him. Shane then slaps on a Figure Four leglock, but wait it\u2019s
\nMIKEY WHIPWRECK<\/b>!!! Whipwreck comes in with a chair and stalls a second
\nthen BLASTS Cactus in the head with it. Holy Shit I bet that hurt. The ref goes
\ndown and makes the count to give Douglas the win.
\nWinner: Shane Douglas at 15:42<\/p>\n
\nan extent. Shane ends his mini-feus with Jack and Mikey sets up his match
\nagainst Cactus which was Jack\u2019s ECW farewell match.
\nRating: An Average ECW-esque bout for Main Eventers but very enjoyable. ***<\/p>\n
\nRaven has just recently defeated Sandman for the strap and this is Sand\u2019s return
\nbout. For some reason we are treated to Sandman\u2019s entire entrance, thank
\ngoodness I can fast fwd. Raven\u2019s out with Stevie Richards, The Meanie and
\nKimona Wana Laya<\/b>, while Sandman has Missy Hyatt<\/b> in his corner. The
\ntwo start off with an outside brawl, oh goody! Back inside Sandman hits a very
\nlong delayed suplex and a somersault splash. Raven falls to the floor and
\nSandman hits some form of a drunken dive. Back inside Sandman has the advantage
\nbut is distracted by the Blue Meanie<\/b>. This allows Raven to blast Sander
\nwith a chair and nail a DDT. As Raven covers however, Missy Hyatt distracts the
\nreferee. This enrages Raven who then goes after Missy, only to allow Sandman to
\nthen attack Raven from behind and hit a DDT of his own, but it\u2019s broken up by
\nKimona Wana Laya. This brings in Missy and we got a CAT FIGHT!!! With all of
\nthis going on Stevie Richards<\/b> hits a superkick on Sandman allowing Raven
\nto get a two count as the ladies are sent to the back. Sandman tries to slam
\nRaven but they collide into the ref. Sandman then hits a very horrible looking
\ndrunken legdrop from the top rope for two. The referee is then sandwiched in the
\ncorner and goes down again. Meanie tries to attack but gets caned for his
\ntroubles. The Bruise Brothers<\/b> hit the ring but are also caned. Raven
\nnails the Sandman and he runs right into a Bruise Brothers double chokeslam.
\nRaven covers but the groggy ref can only make a two count. Both men ascend to
\nthe top rope and duke it out. Raven shoves Sandman off face first into a set up
\nchair in the middle of the ring\u2026OWWW! Raven then hits a DDT on the chair for
\nthe win.
\nWinner: Raven at 8:15<\/p>\n
\ncard, should have came before the Foley and Sabu matches. Quick, and the run
\nin\u2019s and catfight make it a lot less painless to watch. Sandman was definitely
\nin one of his drunker stages this night though. He was very off, more so than
\nusual. Not their best.
\nRating: Very rushed, but Sander seemed pretty wasted. Not much to give it more
\nthan *<\/p>\n
\nSandman with the Singapore cane and a beer. But Meanie spills beer all over
\nSandman\u2019s face, and just like Popeye to his Spinach, the Sandman is revived
\nby Budweiser!!!<\/b> Meanie lays in a few cane shots but Sandman takes over and
\ncanes the shit out of the Meanie. Sandman calls for “Mommy” and out comes Missy,
\nummmmm okay. And that my friends, is that.<\/p>\n
\nTaz for violence, some JT Smith for comedy and it\u2019s bearable. The Pillman segment generated plenty of heat. The Shane\/Foley and Sabu\/Scorpio matches are exceptionally good, although the main event was very lack luster.<\/p>\n
\nshow<\/p>\n
\nhour makes up for it with two classics, followed by a quick drunken brawl to
\nclose the show. The overall show gets **3\/4<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
