00:00Oh my God! Oh my God, Sonny, what are you doing? We have a match! Come on, get up. Let's go. Come on.
00:12Why?
00:13What do you mean, why? You're wrestling Carino and Rhino tonight. Let's get up.
00:18I'm not wrestling them. I don't want to wrestle them. Do they have the belt? No, they don't have the belt. I'm not wrestling.
00:24So what?
00:25Look, you know, I do everything for everybody else. I saved Tommy time and time again. But does he thank me? No.
00:36At the pay-per-view, I lose the match to a piece of s*** to Justin Credible because I took the cane shot for you, Francine, and I don't regret doing it. But does anybody thank me for that? No.
00:49Scotty, I thanked you.
00:51Tommy didn't. What about me? What about Raven? You know, without those belts, I feel like my dad was right. I feel like I'm just worthless and that I'm a nothing. A loser.
01:01But he wasn't right. He wasn't right.
01:04Do you think I can't hear you?
01:07Oh, Tommy, just please leave him alone. Please?
01:10Let's go. We've got a match tonight. We've got to go to work. Let's go.
01:14What? He's always got a ride on.
01:16Yeah, look at him. Can you just leave him alone? Let's just go.
01:19Get up. We've got to go wrestle.
01:22I'm not getting up.
01:23Get up, Scotty. We've got to wrestle.
01:26What are you going to do? Hit me, Tommy?
01:27Get up, Scotty. We've got to go.
01:29Please, please, just leave him alone. Just go. Just leave him alone. Please?
01:33Yeah.
01:34Please?
01:35Yeah.
01:36Please?
01:37Sure.
01:38Hello, everyone, and welcome to ECW on TNN.
01:56We are here in the Big Easy New Orleans, Louisiana.
02:19I'm Joey Styles, and well, well, well, it is I, the quintessential stun muffin, Joel.
02:32Cyrus isn't here right now. Cyrus didn't make it. Cyrus is nothing but a wussy.
02:42Because while he's in Winnipeg eating Canadian bacon, I'm in New Orleans eating hot.
02:54Whoa, whoa, whoa, cut, cut. What are you doing shooting at?
02:57You're going to get heaped with the network, kid.
02:59You want to be back on rock and ball shooting lane four?
03:02You do as I tell you. What am I paying you for?
03:05You know, we've got a situation here, ladies and gentlemen, where I've got five wrestlers in the back.
03:10Shut up! I've got five wrestlers in the back who want their releases, and they're going to walk if Joel Gertner remains his color commentator on TNN.
03:18Apparently, no one wants to work with the devil.
03:20Well, I'm sure we've all got better things to do with our time than watch some portly announcer get himself over at the expense of the talent.
03:27There was a tremendous Rob Van Damme, Mike Awesome confrontation. I'm sure we'd all rather watch that, so let's flip to that.
03:34Ron, flip to it!
03:38RV people, RV people, RV people, RV people, RV people, RV people, RV people, RV people!
03:49Listen to what you're saying, big man!
03:51big man, because you're confusing my fans with that nonsense. I'm Rob Van Dam. A whole
04:05snow. Rob Van Dam, I'm looking at you, and I see a puty little
04:33f***ing-ass television title around your waist. I am the heavyweight champ of the world.
04:45In fact, here's my f***ing bill. Why don't you try to come and take it away from me, Rob Van Dam.
04:59The challenge has been issued.
05:03RBD, RBD, RBD, RBD, RBD, RBD, RBD, RBD, RBD.
05:15You know, Mike Awesome, I bet it's about 4.20 right now. I got some time to burn.
05:24Let's do this right now. Challenge accepted. Here we go.
05:34It's Sabu! Sabu is back!
05:47It's Sabu! Sabu is back!
05:513-way dance!
05:583-way dance!
06:013-way dance!
06:043-way dance!
06:093-way dance!
06:12Hey!
06:14F*** you guys and your 3-way dance!
06:19I'm willing to take F*** you and F*** on right F*** now!
06:26Mike Austin has challenged both Rob Van Dam and Sabu!
06:31Either he's out of his mind or he's the most awesome champion the world has ever seen!
06:38Sabu! Sabu! Sabu! Sabu! Sabu! Sabu! Sabu! Sabu!
06:44It looks like Rob Van Dam in Sabu versus Mike Austin right here right now!
06:51No!
06:53Sabu just knocked Van Dam caught!
06:57Austin bomb on the steel chair!
07:01Alfonso shoved out of the way by Sabu!
07:08Van Dam's there!
07:13Triple jump moonsault! Sabu landed the knee!
07:17Again! Alfonso shoved out of the way!
07:26Arabian face buster!
07:28On the world television chip!
07:30White and Sabu just knocked Alfonso cold!
07:34Judge Jeff Jones setting up Alfonso on the table!
07:43Little Spike Dudley the giant killer attacks Mike Austin!
07:47But Sabu nails him from behind!
07:53Oh my god what an awesome ball!
07:56The judge just slid at a table!
08:06Mike Austin and Sabu working together!
08:12Nearly two years Rob Van Dam has been the world television champion and that has made him the most sportsman in professional wrestling!
08:29And if you're the prey, you don't want Mike Austin to be your predator!

09:26Go!
10:57First and foremost is you, Rob Van Dam.
11:03Hey, let's forget about Rob Van Dam, all right?
11:05Because tonight it's all about you, Spike Dudley.
11:09Hey, you know why I'm the ECW World Heavyweight Champion?
11:12It's because I'm awesome.
11:14And also because I'm focused.
11:17Yeah, I'm focused.
11:18I'm focused on you, Spike Dudley.
11:20I'm focused on kicking your ass.
11:23I'm focused on powerbombing you through a table.
11:25I'm focused on defending this World Heavyweight title against you, Spike Dudley.
11:32And yeah, you sure earned my respect at that pay-per-view.
11:36Yeah, you showed me just how tough you can be.
11:38But I guess I showed you just how tough I can be.
11:43So Spike Dudley, you want to challenge me for my heavyweight title again?
11:47Well, just bring your ass on because I'm going to kick your ass all over this arena tonight.
11:55Everywhere.
11:56I'll kick your ass next time if you come.
11:58I'll kick your ass wherever.
12:00Just bring it on.
12:01I'm going to beat your ass wherever it is, Spike Dudley.
12:05God, you know Spike Dudley.
12:07We're focused on Spike tonight, right?
12:09We're focused on Spike.
12:11Absolutely, we got Spike tonight.
12:13That's all we're worried about.
12:15Rob Van Damme.
12:17Rob Van Damme.
12:19There you have it.
12:20Rob Van Damme, the last thing on his mind.
12:24It better be the title's in Jeopardy tonight.
12:26Guido vs. Tajiri is next.
12:33Welcome back to ECW on TNN.
12:36Guido and Tajiri, collar and elbow tie-up.
12:39That's right, John Peely Moore to officiate this matchup.
12:44And Tajiri's got to be thinking about last week in the Mexican Deathmatch
12:48when he lost to Super Crazy.
12:51I think he's going to try to avenge that tonight against Little Guido.
12:55He made it pretty clear.
12:56He wants to make an example out of Little Guido.
12:58Little Guido doesn't take kindly to that.
13:00Guido doesn't want to be made an example of by anybody,
13:03and he fears no man.
13:04Nice hip toss by Tajiri, who hangs on to the wrist.
13:11Back to the arm ringer.
13:12Guido with the reversal.
13:16These two far and away.
13:18Two of the more technically sound wrestlers in all of ECW.
13:22In all of wrestling.
13:24Sleeper hold applied.
13:26Shoulder throw by Tajiri.
13:27There's that Italian temper.
13:32Minor Guido.
13:34Guido wants a piece of Tajiri.
13:36He's on top.
13:37Gets it to what a fridge.
13:41Welcome back to ECW on TNN.
13:44Tajiri up top, hovering over.
13:48Little Guido screaming in pain.
13:50He tried to splatter Guido's skull on the canvas,
13:57and Guido wisely rolling to the outside.
14:01He tried to split Guido's skull.
14:08Acai moonsault on both full-blooded Italians.
14:12If you want to get away from Tajiri,
14:15get in your car and leave the arena.
14:16Because getting out of the ring just won't get it done.
14:20Sadistic look on the face of the Japanese buzzsaw.
14:28It's Guido now pulling himself up onto the ring apron.
14:32Guido's weak right hand was blocked.
14:38Nice counter by Guido.
14:39Waistlock takes an elbow.
14:42There it is.
14:44The Carrantula.
14:46As usual, coming out of nowhere.
14:48And what a slap in the face it would be
14:51if Tajiri could beat Guido,
14:53a submission specialist,
14:55by submission from the Carrantula.
14:58Guido made it clear he was not going to give up.
15:01In fact, he answered so emphatically
15:02that Tajiri broke the hole.
15:04Triangle.
15:05Let us find us.
15:07I love when he does that.
15:16You're an insensitive ass.
15:18Guido may be out.
15:19He is certainly down, face down on the canvas.
15:23I disagree wholeheartedly, by the way.
15:26About Guido's condition?
15:27No, about my insensitive ass.
15:30My ass is very sensitive.
15:31Just last night I was getting...
15:32That's enough!
15:34Tajiri hovering over little Guido.
15:38Says that's all.
15:39He's going for the Brain Buster.
15:42Guido counters with a Fujiwara R-Bar.
15:45And what a slap in the face it would be
15:47if Guido defeated Tajiri
15:48with a Japanese submission hold.
15:53Tajiri with the only escape he could manage
15:55crawling towards the bottom rope.
15:58Guido now working over the right arm of Tajiri.
16:02He's going for the Maritano.
16:04This may be a...
16:05Kick to the Coyotes.
16:08Now that's the battalion.
16:11Full Nelson counters back to the Fujiwara R-Bar.
16:16And Tajiri is in the center of the ring.
16:19Hiwi is right there asking Tajiri in Japanese
16:22if he wants to give it up.
16:25Hiwi is bilingual.
16:27Wow, that means he's got two languages up on you.
16:32Banner of press.
16:34It's a two.
16:37Great presence of mind by Guido
16:39to go for the submission hold
16:40right to the pinfall attempt.
16:45Slap across the chest.
16:47Italian whip.
16:49Handspring elbow.
16:56Tajiri stalking.
16:58Crop kick to the quadriceponese.
17:01Both feet in the face of Guido.
17:04And Tajiri is tearing Guido apart.
17:09He's picking his shots.
17:12His legs, his face.
17:14Guido has got to regroup.
17:16He might want to roll to the outside
17:17and get a confer with Sal or hide behind him.
17:20We can all hide behind Sal.
17:22The New Orleans Saints can hide behind Sal.
17:26Tajiri face first down to the canvas.
17:28Lateral press.
17:30Two and a half.
17:33Guido now to the outside going up top.
17:35That's rare for Guido.
17:38Great leg block.
17:41Hover.
17:43Two and a half.
17:44And it has been confirmed
17:45that starting New Orleans Saints tight end
17:48Josh Wilcox has volunteered
17:50to be Tommy Dreamer's partner
17:52against Rhino and Steve Carino
17:54right here on this very program next.
17:57Josh Wilcox,
17:58whose father, Dave Wilcox,
18:00is a shoe-in
18:01for the Hall of Fame this weekend.
18:04Josh Wilcox is going to be on TNN.
18:06He's the breakout star
18:07for the Saints this season.
18:09He was also a guest
18:10of ECW and TNN
18:12earlier this season
18:13when Rhino dove over the guardrail.
18:16He's got unfinished business.
18:18Guido tied to the trio.
18:23Whoa, no escaping those lethal feet.
18:27If Guido doesn't come up
18:28with something right now,
18:29Tajiri's done some finished business.
18:32And Big Sal knows
18:33that he's up on the ring apron
18:35creating a diversion.
18:37A 600-pound diversion.
18:44Big Sal takes one for the team.
18:46The FBI, that is.
18:48Can Guido capitalize now?
18:51Did he give Guido enough time to recover?
19:01What a slap!
19:03What a kick!
19:08What a brain buster!
19:10What a match!
19:13The winner of the match,
19:17Yoshihiro Tajiri!
19:24What a war that was!
19:27Don't forget, still to come tonight,
19:29little Spike Dudley challenges
19:30for the World Heavyweight title.
19:32He takes on Mike Awesome,
19:33and Rob Van Damme is in the building as well.
19:38But coming up next,
19:40Steve Carino and Rhino,
19:42who are making their way to the ring,
19:44will take on Tommy Dreamer
19:45and the starting tight end
19:47for the New Orleans Saints,
19:49Josh Wilcox.
19:50The monster rhino looks on
19:58as Francine leads Tommy Dreamer
20:00and starting New Orleans Saints tight end
20:03Josh Wilcox to the ring.
20:05But standing by right now with comments
20:07is Rob Van Damme.
20:09How about it, Mr. Monday Night?
20:14How about it, Mr. Pay-Per-View?
20:16Tell the people what's on your mind.
20:20I want to tell Sabu what's on my mind.
20:22Good.
20:23Sabu, don't think that I don't appreciate
20:25everything you've done for me,
20:26you know, training me to be a wrestler and all.
20:30I know it bothers you
20:31that the student surpassed the teacher,
20:34and I know that you understand that,
20:36that I'm better than you.
20:38Even though you pretend you don't understand it,
20:40I know, Sabu,
20:41that you understand that I'm better than you.
20:43And what bothers you the most about it?
20:46Is it because you always knew
20:47that I was destined for great things?
20:50What's that word?
20:50Is it destined, Fancy?
20:52That's right, Daddy.
20:53Okay.
20:54Hey, all I needed was someone to let me in.
20:57And look what happened.
20:58And he knew that way back then.
20:59Look, I let you take the credit for training me.
21:03I wouldn't let you carry my bag, Sabu, still today.
21:06I wouldn't let you hold the belt that you can't take for me.
21:10But no, you don't want it that way, do you?
21:13You know that you can't beat me,
21:15so what you do is you team up with this Mike Awesome,
21:19and you attack me,
21:20and you want to hurt me,
21:21and you want to bring me down.
21:22You're not going to bring me down, Sabu.
21:24Now, I know you don't even have Fonz anymore
21:27to explain it to you.
21:29So let me tell you the way it is.
21:30I, Rob Van Dam,
21:33the same guy that beat your ass at the pay-per-view,
21:36will continue to kick your ass
21:38as long as you come around.
21:40Now, Mike Awesome,
21:42you're a big m******,
21:44and don't get me wrong,
21:45I mean,
21:46by me addressing you,
21:47it doesn't mean that I'm not impressed.
21:49I watch you in the ring.
21:51I think you're a hell of a heavyweight champion.
21:53Yeah,
21:54you're the champion for now.
21:56But I've held this belt for almost two years now.
21:59Longest rated champion.
22:00You know why?
22:01There's a reason.
22:03Because I'm the best wrestler in the business.
22:06The best.
22:07That means, Mike,
22:08that you are not as good as Rob Van Dam.
22:12And I know you know that too,
22:13don't you, Mike Awesome?
22:14You know that Rob Van Dam
22:16is a better wrestler than you.
22:18By far.
22:20That's why the fans chant,
22:22Rob Van Dam.
22:24Because I'm the best wrestler.
22:25I don't just think that.
22:27I know it.
22:28And the fans know it.
22:29And they tell me,
22:30Rob Van Dam,
22:32you're the whole f***ing show.
22:34Mike Awesome,
22:35Sabu.
22:37Listen to that.
22:38There's a reason they call me that.
22:40Rob Van Dam,
22:42the whole f***ing show.
22:47Carino down at a three-point stage.
22:50Looks like peewee football.
22:51Got a flag out of the plate.
22:55Jack Victory,
22:56not only a heart to a wrestling legend,
22:59but a great football referee.
23:03Offside.
23:03You sound surprised.
23:07The Saints were offside before starting all season.
23:11That much is true.
23:14Jack Victory and Steve Carino having some fun with Josh Wilcox.
23:18Trying to rattle him.
23:20Not used to being in a wrestling ring.
23:22Sports strategy.
23:23Here's the tag
23:26to the 290-pound monster Rhino.
23:31Wilcox and Rhino nose to nose.
23:34Now this should be interesting.
23:42Dropped down by Wilcox.
23:44Tag streamer.
23:45The innovator of violence now
23:48with right hands on Rhino.
23:53No matter how much of a monster you may be,
23:56every man is vulnerable down there.
23:59Some of us more than others.
24:02Dreamer goes to the outside with Rhino.
24:10Rhino hits the steel guardrail.
24:13Dreamer's not good.
24:15Again, Rhino hits the steel.
24:19Now I wonder what the penalty is
24:21for choking somebody with a penalty flip.
24:23Punishment's about 10.
24:2510 yards?
24:25No, 10 minutes of rock and roll.
24:28And stiff.
24:31Rhino with a reversal out of the corner.
24:34Dreamer gets the boot up.
24:38Rhino doors, Dreamer.
24:41Rhino stopped Tommy.
24:42Dreamer right in his trance lateral crest.
24:45Barely at two counts as referee Jim Molino.
24:48Dreamer has got to make the tag to Josh Wilcox.
24:52Dreamer and Wilcox are at a severe disadvantage.
24:56They've never seen him before.
24:58Wilcox...
24:59Well, he's not a wrestler.
25:00He's not.
25:01He's barely a football player.
25:04What a fair statement.
25:05Maybe the Saints barely being a football team, but 3-13, not exactly their best effort.
25:10I think Ditka was here looking for work earlier tonight.
25:15Oh, the testicular claw!
25:20I think Carl Gunn's made that famous.
25:27Spine Buster on Dreamer!
25:29Cover!
25:29And Tommy Dreamer, wrestling with two herniated discs in his back, manages to escape the Spine Buster!
25:38Dreamer has got to make the tag to Josh Wilcox.
25:44Wilcox wants a piece of Rhino if the Rhino embarrassed him last time here in the Big Easy.
25:51But he dove over the steel doorway and went at Wilcox, who is a guest of ECW and TNN!
25:57Rhino for his Dreamer, this time in the corner.
26:01The Dreamer needs to be the captain.
26:04Dreamer needs to be the anchor.
26:06What a tough spot to be in.
26:08Yeah, underneath Rhino, two count only.
26:11Well, also to have to make a tag to your partner, who's not a full-time wrestler.
26:18Steve Carino now, as courageous as he is, seeing that Dreamer is down, unable to defend himself, tags in.
26:25Rhino softens Dreamer up just a little bit.
26:29Shot to the stomach!
26:31Take to Rhino!
26:32Rhino's about...
26:33Just did good!
26:34Oh, he hit me in the stomach!
26:35Rhino working over Dreamer!
26:38Dreamer's up to the ride!
26:40Gets caught the midsection, heavy right hand by Rhino!
26:46Suplex takes Dreamer over, lateral breath!
26:49Two count again for the Monster Rhino!
26:52In between two or three interruptions of me, Joey.
26:55Did you happen to hear Jack McBree crazy Steve Carino?
27:00Get up, well done!
27:01Yeah, real suck-ass!

27:58Mr. Old school Steve Carino and Rhino!
28:07There's the pail!
28:09What an incredibly well-thought-out plan!
28:14Francine is incensed!
28:20Hey, forget about all this football talk!
28:23Look at that tight end!
28:25Rhyno carrying the Queen of Extreme to the back!
28:29Josh!
28:32You did very well for yourself right there, my man!
28:36Ho, ho, ho!
28:37And the old school heroes!
28:39We don't shake hands!
28:41We're a real man!
28:42We hug!
28:44Oh, that's the biggest honor right there!
28:48Look at Wilcox is getting a hug from Carino!
28:50For two years, you guys booed!
28:54You guys said we suck!
28:56The Saints don't suck!
28:58You suck!
28:59I beg to differ, Josh!
29:01I take pride in my job!
29:04Are you unemployed, Masterson, at home drinking beer?
29:10I got one thing to say!
29:12You man can kiss my ass!
29:15Listen to the honesty!
29:17Maybe the Saints don't know that bad!
29:19No!
29:22Like I told them before,
29:25New Orleans, you all know
29:27that me, Steve Carino,
29:30being the savior of ECW,
29:33you all think Ricky Williams
29:35is the savior of the New Orleans Saints!
29:37Right here is the savior of the New Orleans Saints!
29:46Now let's get down to business!
29:49Dusty Rhodes,
29:51I know you're in the building!
29:56It's the dream!
29:58I'm not an idiot!
30:00Twice,
30:01you came through the crown!
30:04This time,
30:06we're ready for ya!
30:09You think so, do ya?
30:17Here's the boot!
30:19And a paraphytic elbow!
30:23Down goes Carino!
30:25And we're about to see an example
30:27of what the rest of the NFL
30:29did to the Saints
30:31all this season.
30:34What a bionic elbow!
30:45What's gonna happen next week
30:47right here on TNN
30:49when Rhyno gets his hand
30:51on the American dream?
30:53Right now on ECWWrestling.com,
30:55a very personal interview
30:57with Lance Storm,
30:58Just Incredible,
30:59and Dawn Marie,
31:00and very explicit photos
31:02of the woman now known
31:04as Lay Me Out.
31:05Hero, TNN!
31:106'6",
31:11296,
31:12the most awesome world heavyweight champion
31:16in professional wrestling.
31:18Mike Awesome makes his way
31:20into the ring
31:21here in New Orleans.
31:25You heard the judge
31:27and the champ earlier on.
31:29They are focused on
31:30little Spike Dudley,
31:31but you know,
31:31I didn't quite believe Awesome
31:32when he said
31:33that he's not thinking
31:34about Rob Van Damme.
31:35Little Spike Dudley
31:39didn't even wait
31:40for the bell!
31:43Little Spike Dudley
31:45with a punch-up!
31:46Mike Awesome
31:47better not be thinking
31:48too hard about Rob Van Damme,
31:49or else he's gonna overlook
31:51Spike Dudley,
31:52who came within
31:53an eyelash
31:54of beating him
31:55for the world title
31:56at guilty as charged.
31:58Yeah,
31:59Mike Awesome
31:59might wind up
32:00challenging Van Damme
32:01for the world television title
32:02instead of Van Damme
32:03challenging him
32:04for the world heavyweight title.
32:05Spike might take
32:06that belt home tonight!
32:11Mike Awesome
32:12now on the outside
32:13with the 5'5",
32:14155-pound challenger.
32:22Spike wildly tosses it.
32:24He's like a rabbit animal!
32:26He's foaming at the mouth!
32:29This is a very personal issue
32:32between little Spike Dudley
32:33and the world heavyweight champion
32:35Mike Awesome!
32:37Mike knocked Spike's girlfriend's
32:39teeth down her throat!
32:41And that brought out
32:42a side of Spike Dudley
32:44that we've never seen before!
32:49The side that Mike Awesome
32:50didn't want to see!
32:53God!
32:54Did you see Spike
32:56bounce off the steel?
32:58He looked like a handball!
33:02Just like that,
33:06Mike Awesome
33:06stops little Spike Dudley
33:08in his tracks
33:09and drops some sternum first
33:12on the steel guardrail!
33:17And the champ
33:18showing no signs
33:20of relenting,
33:21pulls little Spike Dudley
33:22back over the guardrail
33:24and throws him
33:26into the ring!
33:26The fans rallying behind
33:34little Spike Dudley
33:35who has already
33:38taken an unbelievable beating
33:40in the opening minutes
33:42of this matchup!
33:50Spike goes low on Mike Awesome
33:52and now he's going up top!
33:58Cover!
34:00One count,
34:01one count only!
34:02I don't really think
34:03it was even a two!
34:07What a close line!
34:12Spike needs to get back
34:13in this match!
34:14He's in there
34:15with the World Heavyweight Champion
34:17Mike Awesome!
34:18And the World Heavyweight title
34:20is on the line here!
34:22It's ECW on TNN
34:24from New Orleans, Louisiana!
34:28Clubbing right hand
34:29by the World Heavyweight Champion
34:31Waistlock!
34:33German suplex!
34:35No breach!
34:36A release!
34:37And Spike's head
34:38bounced off the canvas!
34:40Cover!
34:40Cover!
34:40Cover!
34:40Cover!
34:41Cover!

34:41Cover!
34:42Cover!
34:42Cover!
34:43Cover!
34:46Spike managed
34:47to get caught up
34:47in the ropes!
34:49Mike Keener
34:50showing the keen eye
34:51he broke up
34:51the three count!
34:54Awesome ball!
34:56You know,
34:57as an analyst,
34:58I think Spike Austin
34:59is going to go
34:59for the awesome ball
35:00right here!
35:01Thanks, Joel!
35:03Ooh,
35:03then,
35:03Conrad,
35:04a nice counter!
35:08But Spike
35:09gets planted!
35:12Cover!
35:13Nonchalant cover on the part of the world heavyweight champion,
35:19Spike kicks out,
35:20and Awesome is shot!
35:23So am I!
35:25Judge Jeff Jones and Mike Awesome now setting up a table on the outside!
35:31And as we have seen so many times in the recent past,
35:35that does not bone well for the giant killer little Spike Goodlin!
35:39And just look at how far away that table is from the ring apron!
35:43With three feet!
35:47Oh no!
35:48No, he's gonna break Spike in half!
35:51Spike wriggles free!
35:53He wriggles free!
35:54Spike now climbing all over the world heavyweight champion!
35:57Bulldog through the table!
36:04ữal siguian!
36:04tecteriam!
36:06tecteriam!
36:06tecteriam!
36:08tecteriam!
36:08tecteriam!
36:08tecteriam!
36:09tecteriam!
36:09tecteriam!
36:09tecteriam!
36:10Mike Awesome driven through the table and face first into the floor.
36:15And by the way, the floor here at the Alerio Arena, just some very thin carpeting over concrete.
36:22There is no give out there.
36:25Chair to the skull.
36:27What Spike was able to do is find a way to use Mike Awesome's momentum against him.
36:33You come at Spike's size and he will neutralize.
36:40Spike may be trying to knock Mike Awesome out cold.
36:44Which would be a good idea.
36:46If he's out cold, it doesn't matter how big he is.
36:50But if he's out cold on the outside, can Spike get his 300-pound body back?
36:55It's a moot point because Awesome is getting up.
36:58He's getting up.
37:03I hope you didn't expect anything fast.
37:07Neither did Spike.
37:09Chair in hand.
37:10Whacked the world heavyweight champion yet again.
37:16Asset drop coming up.
37:19Awesome throws him off.
37:20Closed line ducked.
37:24Good night.
37:28That was close.
37:29Two and ahead.
37:30Spike Dudley is definitely going for the knockout here tonight.
37:39Literally.
37:40And he might get it with this chair.
37:47He goes for the cover again.
37:49He's on top.
37:49What else can Spike Dudley do?
37:55Steal chair after steel chair to the skull of Mike Awesome.
38:01Folded his legs over his head.
38:03Sat down with all 155 pounds.
38:06And the champion still kicked out.
38:12That's like running into a wall.
38:14It's like running into a chair that's got Mike Awesome's foot behind it.
38:21The world heavyweight champion stops the challenger.
38:27What he never did in his tracks.
38:30And he capitalized.
38:31Spike getting up very slowly.
38:34What a clothesline.
38:36Clothesline like that.
38:37It'll separate your skull.
38:46Spike Dudley is dead weight.
38:48Oh, my God.
38:54What an awesome ball.
38:57And now the champion is looking to finish off the challenger.
39:01Here comes the awesome Splint.
39:06300 pounds off the top.
39:08No.
39:08Splint kicks out.
39:09The right shoulder's up.
39:11The right shoulder came up.
39:13Mike Awesome can't believe it.
39:15Look at his expression.
39:17He's dumbfounded.
39:18The fans behind Spike.
39:21I don't know what was more impressive, though.
39:24Mike Awesome, 300 pounds.
39:25He's able to stand.
39:27Balance himself on the ropes.
39:28Or how high he got.
39:31And that Spike Dudley escaped.
39:33And somehow, miraculously, he's still in this matchup.
39:39Spike hanging on to the bottom rope,
39:41just trying to protect himself.
39:42How much punishment can a human being take?
39:56Oh, my God, no.
39:57Oh, my God, no.
40:01He just broke little Spike Dudley in hand.
40:03Awesome's got referee Mike Keeter.
40:20Awesome's got referee Mike Keeter.
40:24Awesome is out of control.
40:36Mike Keeter's left to get a thank you card in the mail.
40:39What?
40:39For whoever gets his organs donated to him.
40:42The world heavyweight champion has made a statement here in New Orleans, Louisiana.
40:53The expensive little Spike Dudley.
40:56Who still has not moved.
41:00Hey, Rob Van Damme.
41:05If you're not laid up in a hospital somewhere,
41:09and if you've got the balls,
41:13why don't you bring your ass down here,
41:16and I'll show you just how awesome I can be.
41:21Mike Awesome in no uncertain terms invited the world television champion Rob Van Damme
41:33to come down to the ring.
41:37And as you can tell by the reaction of the fans here at the Sold Out Alario,
41:43the longest reigning champion in professional wrestling
41:47is going to take Awesome up on the invitation.
41:51You know, if the Saints had Van Damme in the backfield with Ricky Williams,
41:55they would have been 13 and three.
41:59Sabu, Sabu from behind.
42:01It was a trap.
42:03It was a trap.
42:04Alphonso shoved down.
42:07Mike Awesome and Sabu have suckered in Rob Van Damme
42:11for a second week in a row.
42:13And here comes Awesome.
42:16But Van Damme turned the tables.
42:18But Van Damme saw Awesome coming.
42:21He sidestepped.
42:23Awesome nearly killed Sabu and himself.
42:27He took the concrete on his head.
42:31Rob Van Damme is waging war.
42:34He took the concrete on his head.
42:34He took the concrete on his head.
42:35He took the concrete on his head.
42:35He took the concrete on his head.
42:36He took the concrete on his head.
42:37He took the concrete on his head.
