ECW Hardcore TV (9/9/2003)
With just five days to go until Anarchy Rulz, a loaded edition of Hardcore Television is kicked off by the extreme mastermind Paul Heyman welcoming us to the arena. He makes it official. What happened last week gave him a brilliant idea for this Sunday's main event. "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock will defend the ECW World Heavyweight Championship against the only man on the planet who could conceivably take that dangerous mantle from him, the Japanese Buzzsaw Yoshihiro Tajiri. The crowd erupts at the announcement. Steve Prazak and Joel Gertner check in on commentary and play up tonight's huge tag team main event that will pit those two against each other, along with their respective partners: Rob Van Dam and Masato Tanaka! The ECW World Television Title is on the line in our opening contest as Gedo defends against Amazing Red! Solid high-paced action between the two that sees the youngster come within a half-count of claiming the gold. Eventually, though, the Japanese veteran puts Red away with his trademark flying senton to retain his belt. Rene Dupree and Sylvan Grenier, the hated La Resistance, come to the ring to talk some trash. They've been told they're involved in a three-way dance for a future ECW Tag Team Title shot at Anarchy Rulz. The other two teams haven't been announced yet, but they're confident that not only will they finally prove that they are the best tag team in ECW, but they are the greatest French Canadian tag team in the history of wrestling! As they continue to gloat, they are blindsided by the returning Fabulous Rougeau Brothers! Jacques and Ray put the boots to Grenier and Dupree while the ECW faithful have a nostalgia mark-out moment. Second-generation star Erik Watts is out next for a match against Ikuto Hidaka. The pair of 28-year-olds put on a solid match, but Watts is the star here, picking up the victory. After the match, Satoshi Kojima blindsides Watts and puts the boots to him. Backstage, Steve Corino says that he attacked Taiyo Kea last week because he knows that Kea has been living a lie. Corino is old school. He's the King Of Old School. There's no one in this business today with a greater respect for the history of our sport than Steve Corino. From the WWF to WCW to ECW to the AWA, Memphis, Mid-South, Mexico, Japan... The tradition of this business needs to be respected. So when he sees a Hawaiian, an American, passing himself off as Japanese just because he spent his career in Japan is disrespectful. Kea needs to embrace his gaijin status, just as he (Corino) has. Embrace your past. Embrace the old school. The team of Little Guido and Sonny "Cocky" Siaki are warming up. Alice in Chains' "Man In The Box" begins to play, and the crowd comes unglued! Tommy Dreamer, the Extreme Original, comes to the ring, accompanied by the eccentric Blue Meanie. It's a good old-fashioned extreme tag team war! Just as the bell sounds, Meanie is blindsided by someone from the crowd. Dreamer notices his partner has been felled, only to eat a spinning back kick. The Colossus Of Boggo Road, Nathan Jones, lays waste to Dreamer and Meanie, then gestures for the heels to pick up the pin. Guido and Siaki seem shocked, but they oblige and win the match without any effort. We do get a hardcore tag team match next as the ECW World Tag Team Champions Danny Doring and Roadkill defend the gold against Excellence Inc., made up of Michael Modest and Donovan Morgan. Very exciting action with Doring bumping for the heels before making a hot tag to Roadkill. Eventually, Doring picks up the victory with his top rope Danaconda leg drop. The cameras quickly cut backstage where Jerry Lynn and Low Ki have begun to brawl. They're on a collision course for Anarchy Rulz, but ECW officials have to pull them apart tonight. Christopher Daniels, who is on a mission to remove the Extreme from Extreme Championship Wrestling faces off against Sandman in our next contest. The beer-swilling cane-swinging Sandman tries to interject his hardcore style into the match, but Daniels is too fast, too talented, too technically sound to be denied his victory. He hits his Angel's Wings finisher on Sandman for the clean victory. After the match, Daniels' Anarchy Rulz opponent Sabu lays him out with a chair, then hits a Triple Jump Moonsault. Daniels escapes to the floor and yells at Sabu, who points to the sky. It's almost time for our main event! But first, Mr. ECW Rob Van Dam issues a challenge to one of his opponents tonight, Masato Tanaka, for a one-on-one match at Anarchy Rulz. Tanaka accepts, and it's time for our main event tag match. It's Tanaka and the #1 contender Yoshihiro Tajiri against Van Dam and the ECW World Heavyweight Champion, Ken Shamrock! Not surprisingly, this is our match of the night as the four top stars on the ECW roster do battle. Most of the match is broken down into singles segments previewing Anarchy Rulz. In the end, the match degenerates into a brawl. RVD misses a Five-Star Frogsplash. Tanaka goes for the cover, but is pulled off into an ankle lock by Shamrock, only for Tajiri to blast him with the Buzzsaw Kick. For the second week in a row, Tajiri stands tall over Shamrock. Will he make it three in a row at Anarchy Rulz? Quick Results (Final Rating 1.50)

ECW Hardcore TV (9/16/2003)
The show opens with Paul Heyman in his office backstage. "Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. And two nights ago, Extreme Championship Wrestling proved that we are still the true innovators of pay-per-view with our Anarchy Rulz event. In six weeks, on October 26 we will return to pay-per-view with a show called Ultimate Jeopardy. On that show, the brand-new ECW World Heavyweight Champion, the Japanese buzzsaw Yoshihiro Tajiri will defend his title against the man who defeated Masato Tanaka two nights ago, Mister Pay-Per-View, Rob Van Dam! Thank you, and enjoy the show." Steve Prazak and Joel Gertner welcome us to the show from inside the arena. They talk about tonight's huge Sabu/Tajiri main event as Erik Watts is making his entrance. Joe E. Legend is already in the ring waiting for him when suddenly, he's laid out by a steel chair by Ken Shamrock! Shamrock then blasts Watts with the chair as well! The former World Champion is on a rampage. He pummels both downed competitors, then clamps Legend in an ankle lock. Shamrock has, dare I say it, snapped and become a bad-ass submission machine! "All-American Boys" hits as the referees clear the ring and Danny Davis the other ECW agents somehow get Shamrock over the barricade. The unlikely tandem of Little Guido and Nathan Jones are the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers' opponents tonight, but their lack of chemistry is overpowered by decades of partnership and the Quebec Press, and the Rougeaus pick up the victory. Back from break ECW Television Champion Gedo is set to defend his championship against Jerry Lynn, who tore the house down against Low Ki at Anarchy Rulz. Lynn spends a good chunk of the match selling the beatdown from Ki, but he does eventually catch Gedo in a mistake and hits a cradle piledriver for the win! After the match, Lynn celebrates with the championship. Christopher Daniels cuts a promo and is an unhappy bastard. He picked up a clean victory over Sabu two nights ago, but he's still looking around at a company that celebrates anarchy and wondering how it still functions. This place needs order, and the Fallen Angel is the one to bring it. Cue Metallica. "Enter Sandman" hits and the crowd goes ballistic. Daniels continues to deride the Extreme side of ECW while its poster child smashes a beer can against his forehead. It looks like we've got an impromptu match on our hands! Sandman takes a swing at Daniels with his Singapore cane, but Daniels dodges to the floor to avoid it. Finally, Daniels disarms Sandman and begins working him over with actual wrestling maneuvers. Sandman does some brawling and manages one of his corner sentons, but eventually Daniels' superior speed and skill is too much, and he picks up the win with Angel's Wings. Two nights ago, La Resistance won a threeway dance to become #1 contenders for the Tag Team Titles. Tonight, they cash in that title opportunity against Danny Doring and Roadkill! We've already had one title change tonight (and two in the last 48 hours), will we see a third tonight? It's a good match that sees a bunch of near-falls both ways. Doring heads to the top rope for his Danaconda legdrop, but he's shoved off by Cyrus The Virus! Rene Dupree takes advantage and covers Doring for the win. After the match, Cyrus helps Dupree and Grenier issue a bit of a beating to the former champs. Cyrus grabs a microphone. He introduces Dupree and Grenier as his clients. He then motions to the back, and they're joined by Sonny Siaki, Little Guido, and Nathan Jones. Cyrus says that the six of them are The Infection. The Tag Team Titles were just the first step. Soon, this team will have infected all of Extreme Championship Wrestling! Siaki remains in the ring after a commercial break. 2 Cold Scorpio makes his entrance, only to be blindsided by Ken Shamrock! Shamrock hits a massive belly-to-belly suplex on the stage, then sprints to the ring. He tackles Siaki, then begins raining elbows down on his face. ECW officials once again somehow manage to run him off, but the damage is done. Backstage, Bill Alfonso is hyping up Rob Van Dam and Sabu. They hype Van Dam's title match with Tajiri in six weeks, but they also talk about Sabu's main event tonight against Tajiri. The roles are reversed from years ago when it was Van Dam softening up Bam Bam Bigelow for Sabu's TV Title match, and the irony or whatever it is (they're not real clear on what irony actually is) is not lost on them. Our main event is everything you'd expect from Sabu and Yoshihiro Tajiri. Lots of super-stiff kicks and strikes, plus some high spots that don't QUITE work out like Sabu had planned. Lots of chairs, some tables, and one big Kick Of Death that ends the match. Tajiri stands over Sabu with the title as we go off the air. Quick Results (Final Rating 1.45)
