Great squash
I might have posted this before. it has been a long time. I have this old WWF coffee table book from 1991. There is a pic of Typhoon stepping on one of these Executioner's throat. Might be from this match.
Executioners attack the Disasters like they are the Road Warriors. Typhoon and Quake clean their clocks. I liked when one of the Executioners yells "Hey leave my partner alone!!!!!" only to have Quake take his head off with a clothesline.
Liked seeing one of them try to double clothesline the Disasters.
I actually think this match is what inspired me to create the Psycho Chickens.
Found this one. Razor gave the Executioner a bit of offense. He also did not finish with the Razors Edge. Instead using the super backdrop suplex.

Fancam Follies day 8
8.FBI vs Blue Meanie, Super Nova and Chris Chetti Queens New York
FBI vs Meanie, Nova and Chetti
Uploaded by Moonshame. - More professional, college and classic sports videos.
This is from the same show as Dudleys vs Balls and Awesome. Match started of as Tracy Smothers vs Chris Chetti but the FBi kept interfering. So Chetti goes to the back and brings back Meanie and Nova.
Anybody know what this song is called? I know people will say Intergalactic but I don't think it is. I'm pretty sure it came out in 1999.
The difference between the Queens fans and the typical ECW houseshow fans is the Queens fans know when to shut up. Or I mean not chant show your tits during a good match.
Match starts and the "Where's my pizza?" chant starts. Always wished somebody woul say "Probably at Dominoes."
Guido clubs Nova and Nova hiptoses him over the top rope only for Guido to drop Novas throat across the top rope. Guido tries to whip Nova into the ropes and Nova hits a sitout spinebuster.
Nova tags in Meanie and they do a flippie slam on Guido. Guido retreats to the comfort of Tracy Smothers crotch.Tracy syncs up with the you suck dick chants.What makes this such a trip is both the FBI and Meanie/Nova are on the surface child friendly acts. So sesing Meanie do he dick sucking motion is very strange.
Tracy is in and works over Blue Meanie with punches but Meanie hits a nice looking standing dropkick. Follow up with a body slam then Jim Mollinoux slams Tracy. Guido complains and he gets slammed by Mollinoux. With Meanie hitting a double clothesline to the outside. Nova then does a dive thru the ropes and Meanie rocket launches Chetti onto the FBI.
Looks like Nova missed the 500 pound guy right behind him. Big Sal clobbers Nova and tosses him back in the ring. Now the fans are calling Sal a fat hog. Which seems like a redundant insult.
Anyway Smothers and Guido hit the double elbow, clubber and double STO into the Paisano elbow.
Nova is in the FBI's corner and the Big Don chokes Nova on the middle rope. Tracy whips Nova into the ropes but Nova hits his own STO. Guido cuts him of before he can hit the tag. Guido goes for the backdrop but is hit with some type of diving powerbomb.
Now Tracy breaks up the tag. Really nice tag wrestling from the FBI. If they could of gotten signed by the WWF they would of been so over. I think they are the reason Blue Meanie got signed. Watch WrestlePalooza 98. they made Meanie and Nova look like super stars.
The beat Nova down in the corner and Nova starts firing back til Tracy hits a drop toehold and tags out. With Guido dropping an elbow. Guido clamps on the chinlock and a Nova chant has started.
Say this for Nova he hit as good a flash electric chair drop as anybody. Oh awesome dick move by Rich where Guido tries to tag out and Tommy moves. He has not been in the match once. Chetti is in on the hot tag. This is something Chetti is good at since he has some flashy flying offense to clean house.
Hits some dropkicks and a spinning heel kick on Guido and Tracy then hits Guido with a powerslam. Tracy whip him into the corner and Chetti hits a springboard heel kick. Guido breaks up the pin. Now Chetti hits a springboard clothesline.
Nova and Chetti whip Meanie into Smothers then Meanie into Guido and they double clothesline Tracy from the ring. Chetti hits the double moonault on Guido only to get samoan dropped by Big Sal and the FBI steal one.
After the match Sal squashes Nova and samoan drops Blue Meanie. Nothing neater than seeing a giant fat guy squash a smaller fat guy. This brings out Spike Dudley who kicks Sal in the balls and acid drops him.
Its too bad by the time Sal fit into the FBI Tracy and Rich were gone.

Fancam Follies Day 6 and 7
RVD vs Taz 11898
Uploaded by Moonshame. - Discover the latest sports and extreme videos.
6. Rob Van Dam vs Taz January 18th 1998
Doing something differen today with two matches. Rob Van Dam comes thru the curtain minus Fonzie. So he is trying to whistl with his fingers. RVD tries to attack Taz while the referee is searching his boot. Taz moves and we are off. Taz beats down RVD and hits that flipping German suplex he does.
RVD retreats to the floor as Taz mocks him. Taz follows him and they are in the audience fighting. Watching ECW and there are two things I grew to really appreciate.
1. Someone successfully clotheslining somebody over the top rope/guard rail. Never realized how many guys mess this up. But in ECW it is like 10/90 sucess rate.
2. Brawling thru the crowd. Most guys just grab some hair/scalp and pull each other occasionally doing punches.
Taz here is really good at it. Occasionally dragging but here they are actually fighting their way thru he audience. Punching, slamming into walls. A small thing that is the difference between a bad ECW match and a good one.
RVD and Taz are a perfect fit for each other. Taz likes to throw suplexes and absorb strikes. RVD likes to bump of of suplexes and kick guys in the mush. They end up in the stands. They are fighting on the stairs.
Miss part of the match because Gabe has to run around to get back to ringside. RVD tags Taz climbing over the guardrail and hits a flipping senton off the rails. They land in a pile of chairs which helps make it look more reckless. Another thing the helps brawling around ringside is not seeing a sea of yellow security shirts surrounding the wrestlers.
Back in the ring and a chair has come into play. Taz charges but RBD boots him in the mouth. Taz charges again and RVD flips over him and dropkicks him in the face. RVD tries the running skateboard chair dropkick but Taz moves.
Neat sequence of Taz whipping RVD charging him RVD leap frogging and Taz trying for the Tazmission. RVD fights out of it. One goo ECW thing is you rarely ever see the stupid WWF kick in the groin Tazmision escape. I swear every fucking week.
Taz locks on the second try and this brings out Sabu.
RVD is trying to fight out of it and Sabu just legdrops both of them. RVD and Sabu are beating down Taz. This brings out Bam Bam Bigelow which leads us to.
Sabu vs Bam Bam Bigelow 11898
Uploaded by Moonshame. - Check out more sports and extreme sports videos.
7. Sabu vs Bam Bam Bigelow
Sabu vs Bam Bam Bigelow is one of my ECW holy grails. Always getting small taste like a short World title match, or tag matches or an awesome Triple Threat vs Taz. Which btw I wish WWE would release as a shortie on Classics on Demand. This was actually a really good show. But the main reason I got it was Sabu vs Bam Bam.
So Bam Bam comes in and attacks Sabu and RVD to save Taz. But Taz is not grateful and starts cussing Bam Bam. I liked to think Bam Bam decided to rejoin the Triple Threat at the last minute because Taz is an asshole and Shane was a good friend before Bam Bam betrayed him.
Lockerroom goons pull Taz out of the ring while Sabu and RVD jump Bigelow. Sabi chunks a chair at Bam Bam. Sabu keep kicking and opunching til he locks on a sorta camel clutch. One great thing about Bam Bam is he can sell for guys much smaller yet not have hi credibility hurt.
Sabu goes to whip Bam Bam and gets clotheslines and Bam Bam is back in control. He teases throwing abu into the crowd. But he just press slams him in the ring. We get the basic story of the match. Everytime Bam Bam has abu on the ropes RVD gets involved and he can't fight them both off. It also pushes the story of Bam Bam needing a partner.
Bam Bam starts fighting RVD and Sabu hits his Air Sabu flying press to the floor. Bam Bam fights off Sabu and RVD tags him with a kick. I liked how it looked because it looked out of control. Like RVD is swinging blind. Spaking of out of control Sabu dives off the stage, Bam Bam catches him and smashes him into it. Sabu almost overshot Bam Bam and landed in the ring. That was some distance.
Bam bam kicks RVD for good measure. RVD grabs Bigelow's leg comin in. Sabu hits a dropkick into his knee.
On the floor Bigelow and RVD start brawling and making thei way to the table. Which again I really appreciate. Sabu catches Bam Bam with a baseball slie. Allowing RVD to hold him OVER the taBLE and Sabu hits his "no brakes no brakes!!!"flying leg drop. Wipes out RVD too. Good thing about this is with their relationship its a bonus for abu to hurt RVD.
They do a good job selling the spot with it taking a bit for them to recover while RVD is still out.
Bck in the ring Bam bam misses an avalanche, Sabu attempts Air Sabu in the corner which Bam Bam counters into a German suplex. Followed by Bam Bam hitting a quality splash for two. If you ever see a bad fat guy splash you really appreciate the good ones.
RVD springbord into the ring for the save but Bigelow moves. Bam Bam hits him with Greetings from Asbury Park. Now Sabu gets a taste. But here comes the riple Threat.
Bam Bam wips out Candido and Storm. But Douglas kicks him in the nuts allowing them to hit a double suplex.
Sabu and RVD have recovered and attempt Rolling thunder. They beat up Bam Bam some more and hit it again for three.
They keep beating on him til Taz makes the save. Then Taz attacks Bam Bam. Boy I do not blame Bam Bam for turning on that jerk.

5. Justin Credible vs Mikey Whipwreck 11/21/97
This took place at a house show a week before November 2 Remember 97. All around it is probably a better show.
Justin Credible had just joined ECW and he is feuding with Mikey. This match might be one of the best sub ten minute matches I have seen. Watching this and Justin vs Spike Dudley from a December 98 house show. This is more of what the WWF Light heavyweight division should of been. Instead of trying to ape WCW with luchadores and Japanese stars when WCW had almost everyone locked up. Go with guys like Mikey, Justin and Spike. Smaller indy guys who do simpler matches and have more personality with some guys like Taka mixed in. Enough with the editorial here is the match.
Starts off with this criss cross section and Mikey hitting some arm drags and slaps an arm bar on Justin. Justin lays some good looking knees into MIKEY TO break it. Tosses him into the opposite turnbuckle but Mikey reverses and Justin tries to leap over Mikey but nobody is there and Mikey lays some punches into Justin.
Another criss cross section ending with Mikey hitting a tilt a whirl head scissors followed by Mikey clotheslining him over the top rope with Mikey hitting a plancha on Justin. Mikey picks up Justin and whips him into the guardrail but Justin reverses. Justin charges him only to get kicked in the mouth. Mikey bulldogs him off the rail into the concrete.
Mikey is the perfect guy to work with Justin Credible. Because Mikey is small enough you really buy Justin getting heat on him. But Mikey is just big enough he can beat up Justin with it looking credible. Pun not intended.
Back in the ring Justin hits that spinning facebuster ddt he does. Props Mikey up In the shattered dreams position and hits a running dropkick into Mikey's crotch. Followed by that sitting powerbomb out of the corner Justin does. Props Mikey on the top and hits a hurracarana.
Now he puts Mikey into a chinlock. Mikey fights out of it only for this neat sequence where JUStin tries a sleeper but Mikey does this reversal into his own only for Justin to hit a jawbreaker. They get up groggy and Justin hits a enziguri.
Justin charges Mikey in the corner but Mikey ducks and Justin gets crotched on the top rope. Mikey hits a bulldog. They do another criss cross that ends with MIKey hitting the Stunner. I like how Mikey does it with splits.
Mikey goes to the top and misses a flipping senton and Justin hits hat's Incredible for the win.

Sandman vs Konnan (10695)
Uploaded by Moonshame. - Check out more sports and extreme sports videos.
4. Sandman vs Konnan 10-6-95
These two have a more famous match three months later at House Party 96.This match is simular but the dynamic is very different. At House Party the fans were rabidly anti Konan and cheering Sandman. Here its a much more traditional heel/face set up.
Match starts with Konan tieing up Sandman in a pretzal hold. Sandman gets to the ropes and retreats outside the ring.
Sandman goes back in the ring and again he getstied up, this time its an ankle lock. Sandman is getting angry at somebody trying to make him wrestle. Sandman is doing a great job of selling this. Getting really desperate each time he gets put on the mat. Konan is now kicking him in the head over and over. Followed by a big piledriver.
Again Sandman goes outside to regroup he comes back in and is taken down in an armbar. Shifts around into an STF. I'll just say right now based on the Sandman matches, Konan looks really good. Sandman gets to the ropes and unlike most times guuys crawl to the ropes it looks credible.
Sandman crawls out again. Love heel Sandman he is this drunken ring general. Alays knowing where he is and when to run for it. I really really wish they had ran Eddy vs Sandman a few times. Sandman is pissed now and picked up a chair an circling the ring. Waiting for just the right chance to strike.
He tosses a chair in and darts at Konan hitting him with some knees before whipping him into the corner. Dropping knees on him and choking him. Sandman does a criss cros sequence and pays for it, Again trying to wrestle Konan's match. He whips Konan into the corner but Konan avoids the charge and rolls him up.
KOnan hits the rolling clothesline, followed by two more clotheslines. Sandman retreats again.
Sandman is great just pacing around he ring, his eyes never leaving Konan. K Dawg gets distracted by something and Sandman hits a hard looking lariat to the back of his head. There is this moment that is the Sandman version of Flair doing "now its time we go to school!!!!! Nice looking slingshot legdrop. Picks him up for a big bodyslam. Now a slighshot sommersault that crushed Konnan's face.
Starts throwing the punches followed by the sloppy DDT. Konnan starts to fire back and Woman hits him with the cane. Sandman follows thru with a piledriver. Sandman is pretty wiped so he takes a mid match smoke break. Konnan takes his chance to wallop Sandman in the nuts. Then steals andman's ciggerette and Konan seems pretty cool suddenly. He does kinda look like Joe Camel if you squint. Goes over to taunt Woman while some guy plays with her hair in a odd moment. She tries to hit him with the cane and Konann takes it.
Now he starts playing a tune on Sandman's head. While Andman is still selling his balls being hit. You rarely get that in wrestling. Usually guys shake it off in a minute. Instead of the slow building agony.You usually get.
Sandman is back on his feet and before getting hit thumbs Konnan in the eye and Woman tosses in a second cane. Now they are trading cane shots, ref attemots to intervene and they both hit him and the match is declared a no contest.
This does not stop them as they keep fighting. The lockerroom empties to separate them.
This did a great job setting up a rematch and it should of aired on tv in some form.

Great Sasuke vs Tiger Mask IV 122797
Uploaded by Moonshame. - Discover the latest sports and extreme videos.
3. Tiger Mask IV vs Great Sasuke December 27 1997
Before I start this is the worst fucking audience I have ever seen at a ECW show. Let that soak in.
Great Sasuke after Barely Legal and his WWF run never happened, had another stint in ECW. eE feuded with Justin Credible. Now personally that seemed like a waste. I would of rather seen Sasuke mix it up with Sabu or RVD or TaZ. But in this run he brought Tiger Mask IV with him. They wrestled on a few house shows.That is just how ECW did things. We have these foriegn guys who could really get over. Lets just put em against each other.
So this audience basically shits over everything they do in the first half because they are
1. Foreign.
2. Not on tv.
3. Wear mask.
Fuck these people. It is like bizarro ROH. Where Japanese guy is hated for no reason.
First half of the match is your basic stuff. Sasuke and Mask trading kicks before trying to take eachother down on the mat. Anytime a wrestling hold is tried somebody yells boring.
Sasuke has a camel clutch on Tiger mask IV who slips out an reverses it.
Mask gets him up and they start a sequence of reversals with Mask winning with a spin kick. Mask hits SAsuke with a unique looking shoulderblock. Almost a running moonsault.
But Mask puts him back on the mat with a chinlock into a headscossors. And the apes are still chanting. They sure do spend a lot of time thinking about sucking dick.
Mask pulls Sasuke to the center of the ring. Nice part where Sauke puts Mask in a leglock to and they start slapping eachother. THis actually gets the crowd excited very briefly. Big headbutt by Mask and I enjoy Sasukes painful yelp. Tiger MAsk puts Asuke in a half crab Lion Tamer. Turns it into a full boston crab but Sasuke pulls himself to the ropes. Sasuke fights his way up with kicks.
Irish whip into the corner and Sasuke misses a charge and Mask wins the next kick exchange. Sasuke retreats to the floor and Tiger Mask hits a suicide dive on asuke. which looked painful since the guardrail did not budge. Back in the ring and Mask hits the flying hadbutt for two. Followed by a greatlooking German suplex into a bridge. Followed by a flipping leg submission doodad.
Sasuke makes the ropes and hit a cartwhel flying elbow. Mask hits the floor and gets hit by a big Sasuke dive. Which wips them both out.
This brings out Justin Credible and Jason "The World's Sexiest Man". Justin taunts Sasuke who takes out Jason with a pescado.
Tiger Mask IV is back in the ring and auke hit a standing second rope moonsault on Mask for two. Tiger Mask manages to avoid the powerbomb once but gets caught with a spinning kick and this time the powerbomb finishes him.
Thi was actually a pretty good match once you manage to tune out the shithead audience. They had a match in Queens the same week which im sure is much better.

Tracy Smothers vs Sabu
Uploaded by Moonshame. - More professional, college and classic sports videos.
2.Tracy Smothers vs Sabu: Best of Sabu- Suicidal Maniac
First off if you can pin down an exact date and location let me know. It is either Georgia or Dayton Ohio.
The match starts with Tommy Rich and Tracy Smothers ambushing Sabu. They hit the super rare Big DOn Paisano elbow. He gets Sabu in the corner and works him over. Sabu tries to fight back and is beat down. Love how Smothers throws that backhand forearm. Also how he effectivly cusses the fans while beating on a guy. He whips Sabu into the corner but Sabu catches him with a boot and then a springboard leg lariat.
Sabu does the flipping legdrop on Smothers. Tracy retreats outside and Sabu hits a baseball slide knocking him over the rail. Sabu does the triple jump dive into the crowd. Fonzie stood in front of the ropes with a cool pose. But the camera angle was poor.
Back in the ring and Sabu is in control. He hits a big ddt on Smothers. Sabu and Fonzie get the table set up in record time. Tommy Rich in a dick mood takes it down. Tracy attempts to come off the top but is crotched. Sabu with the top rope hurrcarana.
Smothers gets hit by Air Sabu in the corner. Takes a bump on the top of the chair on the way down. Smothers pops Sabu in the gut to regain control.
In some bad judgment Tracy props the table up in the ring. Avoiding the table with Sabu is like trying to avoid the Hulk Up.
Love Fonz at ringside. He makes sure to put over anybody Sabu or RVD faces. Here he points out Sabu is alone against a state of the art athlete and a former World Champion. While Tracy rakes Sabus face all along the middle rope.
Big sequence of Smothers and Sabu reversing momentum on a Irish whip into the table. It ends with Sabu chunking a chair at Tracy. Then Sabu hits the running sideleg on Tracy thru the table.
Smothers barely kicks out at 2. He is struggling to stay in this. Sabu goes for another Ai Sabu catches himelf when Tracy moves, only to get tagged by Smother leaping side kick.Now he is laying in wait for Sabu. Each time he gets up hitting another kick. The crowd is getting into it chanting Sabu. Smothers DDT's Sabu into a chair.
Okay now Smothers throws a chair at Sabu but Sabu catches it. Im thinking "Oh Tracy you done messed up now." But he hits the Tracy Smothernator on Sabu!!!! And the fucking chair sets itself right up. Now that is cool.
Tracy gets ready to hit Sabu with the chair but Sabu dropkicks his leg out from under his leg and Tracy hits the chair facefirst. Sabu climbs to the top and Fonzie tosses him a chair. But Tommy Rich is on the apron. SO Sabu thROWS the chair at him. Fonzie tosses another chair and Sabu throws the chair at Rich and that is the end of him. Now Arabian facebuster finishes Tracy Smothers.

Dudleys vs Mike Awesome and Balls
Uploaded by Moonshame. - Check out more sports and extreme sports videos.
1.Bubba and D-Von Dudley vs Balls Mahoney and Mike Awesome September 16 1998 Quens New York
Im really not sure if this match made tv. I know I saw clips of it in Mike Awesome video packages a year later.
Dudleys do a promo talking about how they wanted to honor the recently departed Sandman. How they had misjudged him. But one day they hoped they could leave ECW for big money too. This gets some big heat from the audience. It is strange going back and watching this stuff. At the time emotions were running high all around. Less than three years later ECW was dead and WCW was a parking lot.
This brings out Balls Mahoney. He cuts a good ernest promo. Not ranting and raving or even cursing. He just plainly says without ECW the Dudleys would be nothing working on the indy scene. He says he admits that about himself. He had hit rock bottom before ECW and he had nowhere else to go. He says this has been a long time coming and to expect the worst headache ever. But Balls turns around and gets his skull split by a chair shot. This looked dangerous but you have to understand back in the 90s nobody knew the dangers of being hit in the head with a piece of metal.
Dudleys start berating Balls but before D-von hits the third commandment Mike Awesome's FMW theme hits and I have to admit it made me cheer. He hits the ring and starts clubbering D-Von. He then powerbombs Bubba which was quite a site. Bubba no sells then power bombs Awesome. Who no sells the power bomb. I hated that spot but I understand the the thinking behind it.
Dudleys gang up on Awesome who hits a big looking double spear. He follows it with the Awesome dive. Fans are going crazy for Mike Awesome. You get why Heyman had been trying to sign him since 1994.
Back in the ring D-Von gets German suplexed. He takes an uncomfortable looking bump off of it. Not for the last time in this match.
Bubba hits Awesome with Sign Guy's sign giving D-Von the chance to attack. Dudleys do the proto Wassup headbutt but it looks a lot more painful here.
Bubba and Awesome have a chop exchange which Bubba wins with a nut shot.
Now the Dudleys are working over Awesome for the next several few minutes. It is not Demolition but it is getting the job done. Balls for his part has been selling the chair shot.
Dudleys are working over Awesome in the corner. Bubba takes the mic and says "You aint so fuckin Awesome now." Mike wesome goes nuts swinging wild. D-Von stops him a nut shot. Dudleys attempt to hit a double suplex but Awesome reverses and D-Von takes a sick bump on his head.
Balls Mahoney is in for the hot tag cleaning house on both Dudleys. Mike Awesome comes back in and they hit a double superplex on Bubba. Awesome hits an odd looking gut wrench power bomb on D-Von. Now Balls is telling him "Mike get the tables!!!!" While Awesome is busy doing that Balls hits a frog splash on D-Von. Before Balls can get the pin Sign Guy inteferes. Balls goes outside and beats up Sign Guy.
Awesome goes to hit the Awesomebomb to the floo on D-Voin but Bubba pulls him down and they hit Awesome with 3D.
Fancam Follies intro
Introduction by Matt D
Fancams are the hidden jewels of pro wrestling. They're matches that shouldn't exist, that shouldn't be available. They weren't meant to be taped. They weren't meant to be kept. They weren't meant to be watched twenty years later. Yes, it's debatable whether or not any match from the 80s or 90s was meant to be watched twenty years later, but most house show matches absolutely weren't. They tell us so much about the wrestlers and their craft, however. With TV matches, there's a specific purpose, time constraints, style constraints, more room for egos and agendas. House Show matches are there to entertain the crowd and the wrestlers in the ring and in the back. They get more time, more freedom and they can tell you a lot about someone. Do the wrestlers go all out for one-hundred and fifty paying customers? Do they stick to a basic formula? Do they just go out there and go through the motions or do they try to have fun?
ECW's fancams are particularly interesting. There's a massive amount of material out there and people have seen so little of it. This is essential, even primal material. This is the bread and butter of what ECW was, the night in, night out shows. People's opinions of certain WWE wrestlers have changed dramatically due to WWE 24/7 and the MSG and other shows released over the last five or six years. There's every reason to believe that there are a number of underwatched ECW fancam matches just waiting to do the same. Vic's fancam project is one big step in rectifying this gap.
Trying to figure out the "best" matches of any single promotion is a difficult task. ECW was a mish-mash of different styles, a nexus of deathmatchs and chain wrestling and brawls, of crazy spots and dueling two-counts and incited crowds. It was full of guys who stayed around for a few months or just a few shows and guys who lasted the brunt of their career there. One thing I appreciate about Vic is that he always looks at the question of "best" in context. Even in a promotion as disparate as ECW, it's downright counter-productive to look at matches between two outsiders or matches that could have existed anywhere when trying to gauge the "best." To do so is to try to figure out what people think to be the best matches that just happened to take place in an ECW ring, not the best ECW matches. It muddies the point, maybe even defeats it. It's also completely unnecessary. ECW matches could be so many things in so many ways that there's no reason to be limiting. Figuring out the best of the best is to embrace the company for what it was.
That's exactly what Vic's trying to do here. He's looking at shows people haven't seen, that they haven't even heard of, shows full of matches that his own specific familiarity and expertise led him to track down and he's unearthing them for everyone to see. Sometimes the matches disappoint. Sometimes they completely exceed expectations. Each and every one of them tells us something about these wrestlers and about ECW. They're all missing pieces of a puzzle, pieces that a lot of us didn't even realize were missing.
Fancams are the hidden jewels of pro wrestling. They're matches that shouldn't exist, that shouldn't be available. They weren't meant to be taped. They weren't meant to be kept. They weren't meant to be watched twenty years later. Yes, it's debatable whether or not any match from the 80s or 90s was meant to be watched twenty years later, but most house show matches absolutely weren't. They tell us so much about the wrestlers and their craft, however. With TV matches, there's a specific purpose, time constraints, style constraints, more room for egos and agendas. House Show matches are there to entertain the crowd and the wrestlers in the ring and in the back. They get more time, more freedom and they can tell you a lot about someone. Do the wrestlers go all out for one-hundred and fifty paying customers? Do they stick to a basic formula? Do they just go out there and go through the motions or do they try to have fun?
ECW's fancams are particularly interesting. There's a massive amount of material out there and people have seen so little of it. This is essential, even primal material. This is the bread and butter of what ECW was, the night in, night out shows. People's opinions of certain WWE wrestlers have changed dramatically due to WWE 24/7 and the MSG and other shows released over the last five or six years. There's every reason to believe that there are a number of underwatched ECW fancam matches just waiting to do the same. Vic's fancam project is one big step in rectifying this gap.

Chairshot A Love Story Day 21
21.
Woke up in the locker room. My neck and jaw are killing me. I think I'm West Coast Heritage champion before I fully woke up and realize what happened. I take my gear off and put on my people clothes. I'm done with this!!!! All that pain is for nothing. NOTHING!!!!!! I'm going to go find Mr.Johansen (the boss) and quit. If this is all being a wrestler is I don't want it.
I look over and see Bingwen is packing Bleached Evil's bags. Ugh I can't deal with his crap now, I gotta get out of here. I see Mr.Johansen's office. I don't care if he is busy, not like I work here anymore.
"STOP!!!!!"
Turn around and I see King Behemoth in people clothes. Makes him look even bigger.
"What do you want? Not like you're my friend or anything."
"Boy you can't quit."
"Why the heck not?"
"Because you're not finished."
"I lost my title match, that's it for me."
"Why do you think I bothered to help you?"
"Because you don't wanna share a locker room with a wimp."
"Boy you are a lot of things but a wimp ain't one of em."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean you are one of the toughest men I ever fought."
"What? that's crazy. I never came close to beating you."
"Being tough is not always about winning a fight. I beat you worse than I ever beat anybody. But no matter what you always wanted to wrestle me again. The only man I battled more than you was Ransom Fortune."
"Ransom Fortune?"
"After one match, most wrestlers refuse to face me again. But you never refused and each time you gave me the fight of your life. Why did you do that?"
"Well um uh I wanted to be a pro wrestler I wanted....:"
"To be a champion, is that it boy?"
"Uh Um yes sir."
"But here you are wanting to quit because you did not win your first title match."
After that King Behemoth walks away. I think about everything that has happened in the last few weeks. My life has changed a lot. I feel different. Even if Ike Simmons took my chance I had Violator pinned and the belt was mine. I'm going to be here everyday until they kill me or I'm fired. I'm a loser not a quitter.

Chairshot A Love Story Day 20
20.
The dogs start barking and I go thru the curtain. Never wrestled in front of so many people before. Hard to see because different color lights are blinking on and off. I look down and I'm standing on an Overdog spotlight. I knew pay per viewa were big productions but not this big. Royal Flush is not even one of the big shows like Brainbusters Ball, End Game or Valley of the Brawls.
I high five everyone I see. I look and see little kids wearing cheap replicas of the Overdog mask. I circle the ring four times slapping hands. I tripped over the ring steps but I get up fast. Music stops suddenly and I hear the squealing pig. Violator steps thru the curtain and has a new outfit. He is wearing hot pink sneakers and purple bike shorts and a pink singlet. Yellow ribbons are wrapped in his hair and beard. Wearing a sequined ring jacket like The Young Dandy's use to wear. Even creepier than before but at least he is wearing a shirt.
He gets in the ring and I'm starting to get overwhelmed. This is it for me. my one big chance. If I can't beat him, I doubt I will ever get another title match. Violator is struggling to take off his jacket. Hate to disappoint Mr.Plant but I'm gonna do it. I run and dropkick Violator in the back. I roll him up 1...2... he kicks out. I pull the ring jacket over his head and start hitting him in the head. Ref pulls me back and Violator slides under the top rope to the floor. I run and hit him with a baseball slide to the mouth.
While Violator is groggy I take a deep breath and dive over the top on to him. It is scary and I don't have the technique and finesse of Scissor Mask or Masked Hellitosis. I just fling my body over the top on to Violator. I'm having a hard time breathing. If I don't get up it is all for nothing. so I tackle Violator before he can get to his feet and start hitting him and banging his head into the floor.
CLANG!!! He just grabbed me by my tights and tossed me into the steel ring steps. Next I feel a hard foot go into my head. Try to get up and POW!!!! He just punted me in my ribs. I just realized how long we have been outside the ring. But I haven't heard a bell so I guess the ref is cutting us slack. Doesn't matter as Violator tosses me back in the ring.
I hit him in the gut a couple of times but he just gouged my eyes. He picks me up and hits a big side slam. Violator is not that strong but he uses all his weight and I feel like I was squashed. He goes for the pin but I kick out at 1.
He lifts me up and whips me into the corner and tackles me with an avalanche. It knocks the wind out of me. But one thing I have over Violator is there is nothing he can do to me that I have not taken before. I once got hit by the Behemoth Bomb and took the Royal Treatment from King Behemoth in the same match. Two ribs were broken and I was knocked out for five hours.
Violator throws me into the other corner and tries another avalanche but I get my foot up and kick Violator in the mouth. I go to the second rope and hit a second rope clothesline. Go for the pin 1..he kicks out. Then I see blood on my arm. When did I get busted open? Then I realize its not my blood but Violator's.
I roll him up for a quick two count. Dang it to Heck!!! Violator gets up and I try to hit the Overbulldog but he blocks it and drops me crotch first on the top rope. He follows it up with a sloppy clothesline. He is dropping elbow after elbow. But the thing is I can tell each elbow is getting weaker. I realize Violator is blowing up. Before I make my move I feel it. He just slapped on the Cankle lock. He knows he has to end this now. This hurts bad and its hard to concentrate. But I was once in Martin Morris Texas Cloverleaf and years ago (before I was Overdog) Brent Stone's Rock of Ages. So I know I can endure this. I grab the bottom rope, forcing Violator to break the hold.
Try to stand up but my ankle is hurt. Violator takes the chance to punch me in the mouth. I'm in the corner and he is punching a mud pie. I can't lose I can't lose!!! I'm never going to get this chance again. I ignore my ankle and start hitting him over and over. He is reeling back. I run in for the Overkiller but he hit a Ura nage to counter it. I can hear Violator weezing. He is going to parking violate me. Some fans are beeping in anticipation. Beep....Beep.....Beep,... I hold my forearm up and hit him right in the balls. Violator lets out this high pitched scream. This is it. I hit the Overkiller!!! 1....2..... BLAM!!!!!! I just heard a gun shot and I know what that means. Ike Simmons is coming to the ring.
Why did the referee stop counting!?!?! Ike Simmons has a bandage over his eye. He must be after Violator because of what the Embalmer did. just as Violator gets up he eats an Ike Breaker. Now Ike Simmons is stomping Violator. The bell just rang and I know I'm disqualified. I should run but I'm not going to. I tackle Ike Simmons but he just kicked me in the gut and hit the Ike Breaker. I'm hearing the chants
"Ike!!! IKE!!! IKE!!! IKE!!! IKE!!!!!"
Now I'm hearing
"One More Time, One More Time, One More Time!!!"
So he hits the Ike Breaker again.
Last thing I see before I lose consciousness is a kid in an Overdog mask chanting "One More Time".

Chairshot A Love Story Day 19
19.
Ike Simmons walked past me like I did not exist. In the middle of this the Planetary Tag Team title match has started. Need to go check on the Chickens before I finish getting ready. Bantam just got out of the shower. It is always strange seeing him in people clothes. I go up and ask
"What happened to you guys?"
"Well we made it pretty far in the battle royal. At the end it was us Psycho Chickens vs Karmageddon vs Scissor Mask and X-ILE. We are getting beaten on pretty bad. Karmageddon wanted to hurt us bad. Scissor and X-ILE sat by mocking us. They are ready to hit Rooster with the "Reincarnator Number #3" but Rooster reverses it into a DDT of his own. We take the chance to hit Anjo (of Karmageddon) with the "peck and scratch" and eliminate them. Fans are going nuts when Karmageddon took my head off, memory is a bit fuzzy after that. Last thing I remember is seeing X-ILE and Scissor Mask hitting Rooster with a double superkick that The Amazing Tuxedo's use to do.
I came to my senses when I got to the back. Now I gotta go see Rooster at the hospital."
"Oh gee I'm sorry. I hope he is okay."
"Hey WE'RE THE PSYCHO CHICKENS!!!! CocadoodleDOOOM!!!!!!!! Sorry we are gonna miss seeing you win the title. Peck Pugsley in the eye for me."
"Uh sure thing."
Bantam then pecked some invisible birdseed out of my hand. Almost like Bantam is catching the slack for Rooster being gone.
Hit the locker room and I see Bingwen talking to Bleached Evil. Bingwen's hair is messed up and he has clearly not slept in 48 hours. Need to find out what happened to him but Diamond Phil comes in and his eye is already swollen up.
"You vs Violator is next!!!"
Guess DINOWARRIORS made short work of those two. Get ready quickly and I open up the Package I got yesterday from Mrs.Mask: Tailor to the pros. It is my new Overdog mask. Mrs.M does good work, looks way better than the old one.
I hear the most obnoxious laughing and yelling and I can't believe it......
Scissor Mask and X-ILE are the tag team champions. How? How could this happen? X-ILE and Scissor Mask are good wrestlers. X-ILE is great at times. But the DINOWARRIORS are legends. They once pinned Ransom Fortune in a tag team match in Guam. They had to hit him with a chair, table, their shoulderpads and shoot him with a roman candle in the face and hit Total Extinction four times to do it. How could those two beat DinoWar.
Scissor Mask speaks up first.
"Why are you so surprised loser? Just because you beat me the same day I had a 130 degree temperature and my mom died and you pin me on a fluke, does not mean I'm not three times the wrestler you are. Besides I'm a former W*RE Unde..."
X-ILE steps in
Just like I'm a three time Westcoast Heritage champion, tag team champion and I nev..."
Masked Confederate interrupts X-ILE.
"Of causs you neva loss tha belt boy. You just needed a livin le..."
Now Scissor Mask is interrupting Confederate.
"A Living Legend like the Great Masked Confederate who wrestled the WORLD over."
Confederate looks a bif miffed even thru the mask.
"Um yeah well look loosa we goin ta party to celebrate our big win and youse gettin beat by that fat ol Violata."
I swear Confederate slips into a Brooklyn accent at times.
" GOD DAMNIT TO HELL OVERDOG, IF YOU DO NOT GET TO THE RING I'M CANCELING THE GODDAMNMATCH!!!!!"
It's Diamond Phil again. He looks furious. I see Scissor Mask, X-ILE and the Confederate walk away and they seem to be arguing and whispering.
So later found out details of the match from the Screaming Cowboy. DINOWARRIORS were dominating. They were going to hit Total Extinction when Confederate attacked the DINO's valet Alosaur. Carnivore goes to help but eats a double superkick a scissorkick and the X-ILE Song. Still can't believe they won.
"LAST TIME I'M CALLING YOU OVERDOG!!!!"
I better go now.

Chairshot A Love Story Day 18
18.
I'm backstage at the pay per view. It's being held in Las Vegas. Well i guess that is obvious being called Royal flush. Been in Vegas for three days. Did some interviews with some small TV stations and newspapers to promote the show.
The Chickens and Bingwen took me out to the casino. Before we left they got me a gift. I open it and see a brand new ring jacket. Its orange, black and white. Back has an airbrushed pic of my logo. I'm touched, I have great friends.
At the casino Bingwen won 5,000 dollars in an hour playing blackjack. Then he got accused of counting cards. Turned into a bad scene when a bouncer got the purple mist. I had to stop Bingwen from kicking his head off. Cops showed up but technically poison mist is not legally defined as a weapon. It helped they recognized us from TV.
BingWen has been acting oddly the last two weeks. I have not teamed with him as much lately. The other day I saw he rode to the show with Hemisphere champion Bleached Evil. That guy is almost as weird as the Embalmer. He has this white fried hair and wears various bizarre outfits. This one time me and the chickens wrestled him and his followers Free Fall (Johnny Cocaine and Ron Dynabull) after we lost they gave me a bleach bath. Eyes burned for a week. Ruined my other mask.
Speaking of Freefall they were suppose to wrestle DinoWar for the W*RE Planetary tag belts. But Ron Dynabull pulled a muscle in his back. So the owner said there would be a tag team battle royal on Sunday Night Torn. The Psycho Chickens are really excited. Rooster is crowing and pecking at the walls. Bantam tells me I inspired them. All of a sudden the Masked Confederate interrupted us.
"Look if it ain tha loosa. Hope ya enjoy working on a pay pa view. after Violata gets done with you they is gon scrape you off a tha mat."
"Uh sir is there anything you want I was talking to..."
"Anotha loosa like you. Don be gettin too excited about winnin no battle roya little chick. See the Confederate done put himself a team togetha."
I wonder who would work with the Masked Confederate?
Bantam pulls Rooster off the table and goes to the ring. All the team are out there and I wonder where Confederate's team is. Then I hear it "Snip snip Snip X-ILE!!!!!" Confederate is leading X-Ile and Scissor Mask to the ring. The Chickens actually eliminate Skull-1 and Death-Rock. Skull-1 had tried to double clothesline them but they ducked and hit a double crusher then hit the double peck to knock him out of the ring.
I'm excited for them. Wanna watch the rest of the match but Diamond Phil needs to talk.
"Okay you and Violator are wrestling in the second match. Referee will be Milton Lafred. Milton is a little lenient on fighting outside the ring BUT DO NOT PUSH YOUR LUCK."
Geez he did not need to bite my head off like that. It's not like I'm Murder-Ranger or Ahab the Carver.
Get to the curtain and Bantam has blood all over him and Rooster is on a stretcher. Look in the ring and Scissor Mask and X-IlE are celebrating with the Confederate. Before I can get any details i hear this loud commotion. Run over and Ike Simmons is on the ground being treated by EMT's. I try to find out what happened when I hear a weezing sound.
"SNORT, yeah my buddy Embalmer took it to Icky Simmons. Walloped him with a chair then tossed embalming fluid in his eyes. The W*RE belt is in the bag. Because that's where Embalmer put it after beating Simmons up." After that Violator shoved me into the wall. Was about to hit him when Diamond Phil said "Don't even think about it. We have enough problems right now." Ike Simmons got up and punched Diamond Phil and threw Ricky Hicks into the wall.

At the casino Bingwen won 5,000 dollars in an hour playing blackjack. Then he got accused of counting cards. Turned into a bad scene when a bouncer got the purple mist. I had to stop Bingwen from kicking his head off. Cops showed up but technically poison mist is not legally defined as a weapon. It helped they recognized us from TV.
BingWen has been acting oddly the last two weeks. I have not teamed with him as much lately. The other day I saw he rode to the show with Hemisphere champion Bleached Evil. That guy is almost as weird as the Embalmer. He has this white fried hair and wears various bizarre outfits. This one time me and the chickens wrestled him and his followers Free Fall (Johnny Cocaine and Ron Dynabull) after we lost they gave me a bleach bath. Eyes burned for a week. Ruined my other mask.
Speaking of Freefall they were suppose to wrestle DinoWar for the W*RE Planetary tag belts. But Ron Dynabull pulled a muscle in his back. So the owner said there would be a tag team battle royal on Sunday Night Torn. The Psycho Chickens are really excited. Rooster is crowing and pecking at the walls. Bantam tells me I inspired them. All of a sudden the Masked Confederate interrupted us.
"Look if it ain tha loosa. Hope ya enjoy working on a pay pa view. after Violata gets done with you they is gon scrape you off a tha mat."
"Uh sir is there anything you want I was talking to..."
"Anotha loosa like you. Don be gettin too excited about winnin no battle roya little chick. See the Confederate done put himself a team togetha."
I wonder who would work with the Masked Confederate?
Bantam pulls Rooster off the table and goes to the ring. All the team are out there and I wonder where Confederate's team is. Then I hear it "Snip snip Snip X-ILE!!!!!" Confederate is leading X-Ile and Scissor Mask to the ring. The Chickens actually eliminate Skull-1 and Death-Rock. Skull-1 had tried to double clothesline them but they ducked and hit a double crusher then hit the double peck to knock him out of the ring.
I'm excited for them. Wanna watch the rest of the match but Diamond Phil needs to talk.
"Okay you and Violator are wrestling in the second match. Referee will be Milton Lafred. Milton is a little lenient on fighting outside the ring BUT DO NOT PUSH YOUR LUCK."
Geez he did not need to bite my head off like that. It's not like I'm Murder-Ranger or Ahab the Carver.
Get to the curtain and Bantam has blood all over him and Rooster is on a stretcher. Look in the ring and Scissor Mask and X-IlE are celebrating with the Confederate. Before I can get any details i hear this loud commotion. Run over and Ike Simmons is on the ground being treated by EMT's. I try to find out what happened when I hear a weezing sound.
"SNORT, yeah my buddy Embalmer took it to Icky Simmons. Walloped him with a chair then tossed embalming fluid in his eyes. The W*RE belt is in the bag. Because that's where Embalmer put it after beating Simmons up." After that Violator shoved me into the wall. Was about to hit him when Diamond Phil said "Don't even think about it. We have enough problems right now." Ike Simmons got up and punched Diamond Phil and threw Ricky Hicks into the wall.

Chairshot A Love Story Day 17

"Excuse me Overdog?"
"I'm not the Overdog."
"Is your name Greg Richards?"
"Uh yes it is sir."
"According to my sources you're the Overdog."
"Who are you?
"My name is Albert Bills. I'm..."
"A reporter for Pro Wrestling Eye."
I have been reading Pro wrestling Eye since I was 7 years old. First time I saw a wrestling magazine I was with my mom at Food Store. I look and saw a magazine cover with Sergent Sargent stabbing Ransom Fortune with part of a bayonet. The shock of seeing all that blood thrilled me. I accidentally stole it. i was reading it and Mom said time to go. I just read it out the door. I was halfway home when I realized I took it.
I should of recognized Mr.Bills faster. Really distinct looking guy. He looks like Sam the Eagle from the Muppet Show. I see him backstage at the shows all the time and at ringside. Guess I did not expect to be recognized. Also why would he want to talk to me?
PWEYE: OverDog I'm interested in writing an article about your blood feud with Violator.
Overdog:Blood feud?
PWEYE:Did you get cut open by Violator on national TV?
Overdog:Well yeah.
PWEYE:Did you give Violator a concussion that same night.
Overdog:Well yeah but...
PWEYEThat That is what we at PWEYE call a blood feud.
Overdog:I guess you got me there.
PWEYE:Overdog you are becoming quite the sensation. You have been burning up the chatrooms on AOL and Compuserve. Lot of people are really interested in seeing you win the WCH title.
Overdog:Wow Compuserve?
PWEYE:How do you think you'll fare at Royal flush?
Overdog:Well sir I think I'm going to win. As a wrestler I have to have full faith in my skill and technique."
PWEYE:If you win the West Coast Heritage Championship is that just the beginning for you?
Overdog:What do you mean?
PWEYE:Would you use the West Coast belt to attempt to get a shot at Bleached Evil's Western Hemisphere belt?
Overdog:Well sure I would like that.
PWEYE:The Western Hemisphere Champion is the default number one contender to the W*Re Planetary champion Ike Simmons.
Overdog:Yeah?
PWEYE:So you would like to be the Heavyweight Champion of the Planet?
Overdog:Well of course I would but I have to focus on beating Violator. Winning another belt is a long time from now.
PWEYE:Overdog it has been a pleasure talking to you.
That was a lot of fun. Mr.Bills was a real gentlemen.
Head by Drug Rite to grab a case of Sprite. Janet walks over and gives me a hug and kisses my cheek. She tells me how much she misses me and that she wants us to get back together. Was not expecting that. i was just hoping my coupon for the Reece Cup would be honored.I head back To the apartment and I'm on top of the world.
Few days later as I'm packing my stuff. I get my copy of PWEYE weekly. The cover has me standing in front of a bloody Ike Simmons. The Headline reads
"Cry of the Overdog. first the West Coast next the Planet."
Still can't believe I'm the talk of Compuserve.

Chairshot A Love Story Day 16
16.
After the show in Guntersville I had a few days off. I still needed to work out and start getting some better technique. I usually work out at home with the weight set I got when I was 12. But for this kind of training I'm going to need a ring. I decide I need to hit the Power House. The wrestling school I trained at when I was 17. Pro Wrestling is a hard sport to break into, regardless of your talent or size. It is difficult to even find a school. I tried for over a year to get trained. I would go to indy shows but the guys always pretended like they were not trained.
One day I was reading an issue of Wrestling Stars magazine and saw this tiny ad underneath an ad for apartment wrestling tapes. Watched one of those tapes with Bantam once. They seemed like nice girls but they had terrible technique. Anyway this ad read
"Fame, Fortune, the thrill of competition, the satisfaction of sportsmanship!!! Join the Power House and learn the art of pro wrestling from two former stars."
Well I called right away and heard there was a 1,000 dollar fee. I had to sale all my copies of New Mutants #87 and X-Force number #1. That got me twenty five bucks so I had to sell my copy of Uncanny X-Men #14. First appearance of the Juggernaut. Broke my heart to sell it but between that and my savings bond from Grammy Richards I was going to wrestling school.
My teachers were
Paul "Power" Plant: He was a strong man who wrestled in the 1960s. 6ft2 300 pounds of muscle. He once wrestled in MSG against Leonardo Bernardi. He has all sorts of clippings up around the gym. He put a real sense of fair play in me. Even if I could not put a lot of his technique to use.
Tom "Tiny" Woods: He was a midget wrestler. Hope I'm not insensitive that was the term back then. Anyway he was former Rhode Island Midget champion. His most famous match was wrestling Chief Little Giant in the semi main event at the only World Series of midget wrestling. He tried to teach the virtues of occasionally fighting dirty. Though the stuff he taught me was not much use to either.
The gym looks about the same as I remember from the outside. When I go inside, I can't believe my eyes. There are posters of me/the Overdog everywhere. Posters and promo pics that I thought were never released. Each one with signs saying "Honored alumni." I'm in shock when a group of young guys in gym uniforms run over to me.
"Oh wow its the Overdog!!!"
"See Curtis I told you the Overdog would visit!!!"
"Is it true you're the third Overdog and the original is ftozen and the second is cremated??!!??"
"Are you stupid that's an internet rumor. Now he is gonna think we're dumb."
"Don't call me dumb fatass!!!"
"Don't call me fatass you pirate!!!"
"What do you mean pirate????"
"Well you do have a sunken chest!!!"
"SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP ALLA YOUSE!!!!!"
Well I know that voice. Its Mr.Woods himself. I don't see him til he slowly walks around the ring pushing a tiny walker.
"Mr.Woods its me Greg."
"Oh I know you Greg. Our greatest accomplishment. How onederful to see yuu. Yuu really gave it to that creep Violata. I was so proud of you."
"Well I wasn't coughcough..."
I see Paul "Power" Plant leaving his office. He does not look like the poster on the wall. Actually doesn't look like I remember him from two years ago. He's dragging a tank of oxygen.
"Mr.Plant I'm sorry. But...."
"Oh don't coughcoughcough... Apologize son. You got a good heart. Just the King Beantaco. He is a bad cough cough cough... Influence.
Tiny Woods stands up for me.
"Whats he suppose to do Paul. Let that fatso sit all on him. You gotta fight dirty to get by!!!! He can'na just do five forearms and pose!!!"
"Oh and I suppose he could just bite him on the keister and he'll go away."
"Again with that. Its as psychilogical as it is painful. You know that."
"Yeah i got the teeth marks to prove it hahahacoughcoughhahaspit!!!"
They get along as well as I remember. Never seen a pair of friends who were closer. I speak up
"Um sirs, I have a title match coming up at Royal Flush."
Tiny speaks
"We know we're proud of you kid,"
"Well I'm scared and maybe you could teach me some new techniques like a a four fifty splash or a shooting star press or maybe a Texas Cloverleaf?"
Paul jumps in
"What do you need junk like thata for? I taught you the clubbing forearm, the bearhug coughcoughcough and the a overheada backbreaker."
Tiny says
"Yeah i taught ys the row boat, the airplane spin and biting on the keister when he hides in the ropes. What else do ya need?"
"Well that's okay I guess. Could I possibly use your ring to run some drills. the floor in my apartment is killing me."
Tiny speaks
"Sure sure sure kid. Use our students. all they ever ask about is how to meet the Overdog."
I ask
"Say how did you know I was the Overdog. I haven't told anybody."
Paul speaks
"Look in this business you're our baby. A momma always gonna coughcoughcough gonna know their bambino."
I stayed at the gym for a few hours practicing with the students. They seem nice enough, maybe I was like that when I started. I bought a few different books. One on tae kwon do, one on Jujitsu and one on judo. They have these diagrams but I don't think I'm doing it right. Though I did make this one heavyset kid cry when I put him in a cross arm breaker and broke the sunken chest kid's nose with an attempted thrust kick. Then accidentally dislocated another kid's shoulder on a judo throw. I'm gonna keep practicing but for now I'm leaving the advanced stuff to Combo Clay.
Mr.Plant and Mr.Woods made them do 2,000 hindu squats. They said I didn't have to but I insisted. If anything it proved I was in better condition than I thought. After that I did suplex drills. I suplexed each kid once. Those two heavy set kids were hard to get over. But good practice for suplexing Violator.
There was this big guy in the back. Great build, tall and fairly fast. Apparently he is a discovery of Mr.Plant. He did not seem impressed with me and challenged me to a match. Not that I'm impressive or anything. Mr.Woods and Mr.Plant chewed him out but I accepted. If I can't beat some scrub how can I ever win the West Coast belt.
Match was not much. I took him down a couple of times. Not being trained he had no idea how to defend against me. He attempted this sloppy clothesline, but I ducked and hit the Overkiller for three. The kids were really impressed. Guess he had been bullying them.
I signed autographs and took pictures before leaving. I'm about to get on the bus when this odd looking bald guy approached me.

Chairshot A Love Story Day 15
Violator just ran to the ring dragging the West Coast belt behind him. X-ILE goes for a spin kick but Violator ducks and hits X-ILE with a flurry of punches. He tosses X-ILE in the corner and starts kicking him in the gut. Almost like Ike Simmons punching a mud pie. Violator Irish Whips X-ILE into the opposite corner and hits a running avalanche. He whips him into the opposite corner.
That's when I notice it. Violator is blowing up. In wrestling getting blown up means you are out of breath and Violator is not in the best shape to start with. He charges X-ILE, only for X-ILE to hit him with a flipping clotheline. Now X-ILE is stomping him. He does five rapid elbow drops. He starts punching Violator in the back of the head. X-ILE gets up and makes the X with his fingers while thrusting his crotch out.
He pulls up Violator but Violator hits a beautiful looking arm drag. Something I would never expect to see out of Violator. He follows it with another one. But he is still out of breath and X-ILE kicks him in the face. I guess it goes without saying but between bouts of van ownership, X-ILE became an accomplished martial artist. He can land any type of kick from any type of angle.
X-ILE has held the West Coast Heritage championship three times. His last title reign lasted for over a year. At some point he got into a disagreement with management. By disagreement I mean he beat up the owner's son with nunchucks. He was fined $10,000 dollars for beating up former champ Combo Clay with the nunchucks during a title defense. They stripped him of the title. Well he went crazy and beat up various refs and finally the owner's son with the nun chucks. He also kicked a steel chair into his face.
They had a match at Battlecraze 7 for the vacant belt. Which was won by the Owner's son when he maced X-ILE. After that the title disappeared before Violator started defending it.
Oh geez I need to pay attention to the match. X-ILE has been really putting the boots to Violator. Hitting some nasty looking DDT's and suplexes. Violator is trying to fight back but he is struggling to breathe let alone fight. I'm preparing to wrestle X-ILE when all of a sudden Violator blocks a kick and wraps X-ILE up in a heel hook. That's crazy, I have never seen Violator do a move like that. But I don't even know much about the guy. Wasn't til a month or so ago he wrestled full time. Before that he was Embalmer's mascot.
Oh man X-ILE submitted. The ref is helping Violator up. His shorts are still sagging. He slowly backs up and Parking Violate's X-ILE.
King Behemoth was right. This is only the beginning.

Undertaker vs Vince Mcmahon Survivor Series 2003
Vince Mcmahon vs The Undertaker: Survivor Series 2003
Uploaded by Wrestlesomnia. - Check out more sports and extreme sports videos.
This was on the Undertaker dvd I bought.
I really enjoyed the build up for this because in 2003 Vince kept ramping up and ramping up on his evil/crazy. To eventually beating his daughter with a pipe. He goes from picking a fight with Hulk Hogan to mucking around in Brock and Jurt Angle's affairs to finally picking a fight with the Undertaker.
Now not many people have been buried alive and lived to tell the tale. Very few people have been buried alive twice and told about it.
So somehow Vince accepted a challenge for a Buried Alive match. Now obviously like Yokozuna, Mankind and Shawn Micheals before him. Vince had a plan to make sure he was not buried alive.
What Vince did not count on was that those guys were wrestlers and could hold their own with Taker.
This match is one of the most one sided asskickings in WWEF history. Vince blades off of Taker's first punch and hits a gusher. He is bleeding everywhere. The blood is pouring out of him like a fountain.
Vince only gets three moves. He throws dirt in Taker's eye, headbutts him in the buts then hits him with a shovel. Then Taker shakes it off and throws Vince in the grave. Then Kane shows up and buries his brother alive.

14.
King Behemoth's words are ringing in my head. I still have my title match at Royal Flush and I haven't beaten Violator. I need to prepare for him. He's wrestling X-ILE next. Right after Murder Ranger defends the DeathCORE belt against "The Screaming Cowboy" Johnny.J. Daniel.
I feel something dripping on my chest. Its blood, I forgot that Scissor Mask busted my nose in the match. I go see the doctor and thankfully its not broken.
I go back to the curtain and I see Johnny.J.Daniel come thru covered in cuts and welts. He's screaming like a baby. That's why he's called "The Screaming Cowboy". Originally he came in as "the Singing Cowboy" J.J Daniel. Fans really hated him. One night he had a match with Burnward. Burnward beat him so bad J.J was practically crying. The Masked Confederate dubbed him "The Screaming Cowboy" and that has been his name ever since. He droped the JJ and started going by Johnny J to sound tougher.
I think of going to check on him. That's before Murder Ranger burst thru the curtain swinging a barbwire golf club. He is doing these spin kicks in the air and yelling "Hee YAA!!!" WHA CHA!!!!" The story with Murder Ranger is he use to be on this kids action show. It got canceled and he went crazy. Then a wrestling promoter found him. I know I don't wanna get near him.
While they are cleaning the ring Violator walks over His red hair is up in pig tails. Just when I thought he couldn't look any creepier. So I ask
"Hey what the deal with your hair?"
"Embalmer gave me money to get my hair done so I can feel pretty."
"Oh well uh...."
"Snort hey congrats on your "big" win. Hope you don't develop a taste for it. Like I said I worked a long time to earn this belt."
"You didn't earn it. The owner's son gave it to you."
"Oh believe me I worked hard for it. I'm finally a big shot and some career loser is not gonna take it. I'm not gonna let that straw haired has been take it from me either.snort"
"Oh hey X-ILE."
X-ILE was standing behind Violator the whole time. Now X-ILE is always in a bad mood. He is actually the same age as me. He just started wrestling when he was ten years old. He lived in a van for five years. Believe me he'll tell you. just ask him for a ride. I'm expecting him to go off on Violator. Instead he slaps Violator.
"X-ILE, X-ILE!!!!"
X-ILE's music is playing. He gets a big grin on his face
"See you in the ring dough boy. Remember my belt."
With that he starts strutting thru the curtain. I look over and Violator is on the ground and his belt has come off. He's struggling to stand up. His cut offs are sagging and I see his butt crack. I actually feel a little sorry for him. But when he turns around he looks angry and charges thru the curtain.
14.
King Behemoth's words are ringing in my head. I still have my title match at Royal Flush and I haven't beaten Violator. I need to prepare for him. He's wrestling X-ILE next. Right after Murder Ranger defends the DeathCORE belt against "The Screaming Cowboy" Johnny.J. Daniel.
I feel something dripping on my chest. Its blood, I forgot that Scissor Mask busted my nose in the match. I go see the doctor and thankfully its not broken.
I go back to the curtain and I see Johnny.J.Daniel come thru covered in cuts and welts. He's screaming like a baby. That's why he's called "The Screaming Cowboy". Originally he came in as "the Singing Cowboy" J.J Daniel. Fans really hated him. One night he had a match with Burnward. Burnward beat him so bad J.J was practically crying. The Masked Confederate dubbed him "The Screaming Cowboy" and that has been his name ever since. He droped the JJ and started going by Johnny J to sound tougher.
I think of going to check on him. That's before Murder Ranger burst thru the curtain swinging a barbwire golf club. He is doing these spin kicks in the air and yelling "Hee YAA!!!" WHA CHA!!!!" The story with Murder Ranger is he use to be on this kids action show. It got canceled and he went crazy. Then a wrestling promoter found him. I know I don't wanna get near him.
While they are cleaning the ring Violator walks over His red hair is up in pig tails. Just when I thought he couldn't look any creepier. So I ask
"Hey what the deal with your hair?"
"Embalmer gave me money to get my hair done so I can feel pretty."
"Oh well uh...."
"Snort hey congrats on your "big" win. Hope you don't develop a taste for it. Like I said I worked a long time to earn this belt."
"You didn't earn it. The owner's son gave it to you."
"Oh believe me I worked hard for it. I'm finally a big shot and some career loser is not gonna take it. I'm not gonna let that straw haired has been take it from me either.snort"
"Oh hey X-ILE."
