[1997-11-22-ECW-TV] The Sandman returns

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Continuation of last week's angle. When the lights came back on, The Sandman returned. But like an idiot, he turned his back to chug beer and was immediately attacked by Sabu. He makes a comeback quickly and I can't say "The Sandman makes himself look like an idiot" without laughing, so I won't. He ends up somersaulting himself from the top of the ladder through the table on to Sabu. Not a fan of this segment as all, as there were all these huge stunt spots and none of them meant a thing.

Chugging a beer is important! But yes, Sandman is an idiot. It’s like he thought climbing to the top of the ladder would make it more safe from any attacks while he drank.

Sandman looks like a complete dolt here and totally took me out of the moment. Not enjoying the hype to this tag and the impending stairway to hell match.

That somersault looked really dangerous. A good athlet might pull that one off easily, but the Sandman hardly made the rotation and landed almost on his head.

The cannonball through the table was pretty cool, I admit. That it was a lummox like Sandman doing it instead of a natural high-flyer just added to the element of danger. The rest of the segment was pretty whatever to build to what is IIRC a WMOTYC at November 2 Remember.
