From the same taping as the last Eddy/Dean match. Bill Alfonso is the guest. They set up the 9-1-1 chokeslam that's coming by Alfonso getting in Heyman's face. Alfonso announces that Todd Gordon has been reinstated in Pennsylvania and Florida as the ECW promoter, which was out of his control. Then Alfonso then bans the chokeslam, saying anyone who chokeslams anyone in the arena will be permanently banned from ECW and the fans are FURIOUS. This guy is HATED. So Heyman says if he can't be chokeslammed, he's going to bash his face in with his phone. In a brief moment when Paul E. turns his back, Alfonso knocks him unconscious and Todd Gordon jumps him. Alfonso ends up hitting him with the phone and then starts begging for 9-1-1 to come out. Ridiculous heat for all of this.

 

Finally, 9-1-1's music starts and he grabs Alfonso by the neck, but stops short of chokeslamming him. Stevie Richards and the Dudleys end up involved. By the time all this happens, Paul E. is back up and hits him with the telephone.

 

Alfonso responds in a later-taped promo by banning him from ECW. This is the best thing ECW ever did.

Paul E. puts over the ECW product and Eddy and Dean, and the trained seals respond. Paul E. actually encourages fans to throw objects at Bill Alfonso, which is pretty crazy. Alfonso YANKS the mic from Paul E.'s hand mid-rant and puts Dangerously in his place! I love it! Alfonso drops the horrifying news that the Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission has reinstated Tod Gordon, against Alfonso's wishes. Alfonso takes credit for the Sunshine Network axing ECW in a great play off real life. Meanwhile, Paul E. introduces Tod Gordon and condemns Alfonso to eat a chokeslam from 911. Alfonso no-sells this threat--because he's banned the choke slam! A choke slam on ANYONE will result in a permanent ban for 911. So awesome to see a guy completely shut Paul E. down--Alfonso's ranting is pretty nonsensical but delivered with such passion that it's awesome anyway. Paul E. turns his back, having threatened to take Alfonso down himself with his phone--and ALFONSO CLOBBERS HIM WITH A PHONE OF HIS OWN. Holy SHIT. Tod Gordon in for the save! Alfonso gets the upper-hand and takes Gordon down with the phone. Fans chant "9-1-1," but it's all in vain.

 

Wait, there's "Frankenstein." 911 is out and has Alfonso by the throat, but the Dudleys confront him and the threat peters out.

 

Later, Paul E. comes back to clobber Alfonso with the phone as Alfonso tries to officiate the next match.

 

Angle of the fucking YEAR. In fact this is one of my favorite angles on any Yearbook. Alfonso is so utterly awesome--he's absolutely lapping the field for Best Heel of the Year honors.

 

Alfonso has words for Paul E. afterward--Dangerously is banned from ECW.

Referee Bill Alfonso is the best gimmick ever. His shoot tirade in the middle going off on how hard it is stand to and shout into microphone, getting onto a plane at 5am with his ticket not paid for and then saying he is blowed up, ready to relinquish the mic only to start shoving and screaming at Heyman is great. Fonzie rules!
