[1998-06-17-ECW-TV] Taz and the Triple Threat

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Hard to follow what's going on, but Taz and Bigelow are brawling, and Sabu and RVD are somehow involved too, putting Candido through a table.

This stream of consciousness with the editing and trying to bring everyone on the roster together doesn't work for me. I watched this segment 6 hours again and can't remember a thing about it.

This is confusing because we miss the beginning, which is RVD and Sabu v. Douglas and Candido, before it breaks down.

 

More context - the month before, Candido and Storm had a dream partner tag match, with Candido picking Sabu and Storm picking RVD. RVD and Sabu ended up attacking both before the end of it, which is where Candido's issue with them comes from.

And IIRC from the Observer Storm was supposed to be in this match but visa issues cropped up, temporarily preventing him from coming back into the U.S. So we get the absurd sight of Shane Douglas wrestling AGAIN even though his real-life injuries combined with the work by his opponents should mean that his elbow should have snapped clean off by now. The finish with RVD and Sabu both putting Candido through a table does look pretty, I'll give them that.

I think this was Douglas' last match until around the time he drops the title to Taz.
