[1995-10-31-ECW-TV] The Sandman vs Mikey Whipwreck (Ladder)

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

We get a little Austin/Sandman brawl before the match gets started. In the middle of all of this, Sandman and Konnan end up in a really bad looking chopfest. It alternates between a Sandman/Austin and Sandman/Konnan brawl. This is a clusterfuck, but it's a fun clusterfuck, and I like the Mikey underdog stuff.

Austin almost takes out the front row trying to get the ladder in the ring. Then Sandman tries to bruise his brain with some of the bumps he takes with the ladder.

This was a really fun segment leading into the match, and the match clips were enjoyable as well. They took some nasty looking bumps in this match and I don't know how Mikey didn't break any ribs with some of those shots with the guard rail.

Fun action, though it's probably for the best that this was in highlight form. Unbelievable bumps and moves by both guys, and Mikey getting knocked to the floor but using the rope as a lever to smack Sandman with the ladder is one of the spots of the year. Probably would have been a bigger clusterfuck in full. Sandman destroys the referee after the match, not appreciating Mikey taking him to the limit.
