Taz vs Sabu 10-31=97

I uploaded this a long time ago and am reuploading it because it rules.

The match starts off with some good brawling thru the crowd. They get back to the ring and Sabu starts working over Taz's knee. Taz in return goes after Sabu's arm. Really good back and forth mat wrestling.

They do a section of spot stuff with tables to satisffy the fans and their is an act of god where the table collapses. But they recover quickly and Sabu puts Taz thru the table. Later Taz puts Sabu thru a table. After that they are back in the ring with sabu still trying to take out Taz's leg.

The match shifts to them brawling around the arena again. What i love about this is it all happens organically. They are actually brawling thru he crowd rather than Taz pulling Sabu by the hair.

By the end of it they are doing this thing where Sabu continues going after Taz's leg, because anytime he tries to fight him directly Taz fucks him up with a suplex. abu comes up with a couple of ways out of the Tazmission. Only once doing the shitty ball shot that every WWF Taz match ended with.

Sabu even locks on a nice figure four at one point. By the end they are on their knees trading blows as the bell rings.

No idea why ECW did not put this on their tv show. People would still be talking about it today.

Bill Alfonzo is a super underrated manager. Gets his guys over without making himself the center of attention and is a big help in smoothly tossing Sabu and RVD weapons.

RVD was doing his Sabu doppelganger bit which always rules.



Bruise Brothers vs Eliminators Hardcore Heaven 96

Its suppose to be the Gangstas last title shot but the Gangstas are mugged by the Samoan Gangsta Party and mauled by the Bruise Brothers. The Eliminators take offense and tell them to take the Gangsta's ass kicking. What results is a cool brawl with Saturn unloading a stiff hrust kick into a Harris twins jaw. Saturn and Kronus get chunked into a table. The Gangstas return and a big fight ensues.
