Joey Styles introduces the crowd to tonight's show. Suddenly, Terry Funk shows up from the crowd wearing a graduation cap on his head, which he tosses into the audience. Funk then asks Styles if he realizes he is the living legend and the professor of Funk University, and that he can say what he wants to you as he is very knowledgeable in anti-social behavior. He then commands Styles to give him the microphone, and asks Styles if he realizes he was not invited to be here with the fans. He then says "Funk you" to the fans, Paul E. Dangerously and "The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer, the last of whom he calls "a pile of shit." Six years ago, Dreamer crawled to him on his knees and told him his father is a crackhead and his mother is a whore, and needed a mentor. He looked down at Dreamer and agreed, and Dreamer promised that he would call him in a time of need. He has been waiting three weeks for "this puke-faced son of a bitch" to call him so he could do a double flip off the top rope for the fans. Dreamer shows up, and Funk notices him. Dreamer tells him he gave him what he wanted, but Funk calls him "a big ass with a big ego," and says he should slap him like he would anyone in his family. He then tosses the microphone away and leaves.
The Blue World Order (The Blue Meanie and Super Nova) beat "Dastardly" Danny Doring and Roadkill. Terry Funk shows up shortly after the match again, this time with his own cameraman, and tells timekeeper Steven D'Angelis to ring the bell, before shoving him away from the bell and sitting in front of it while speaking to the cameraman. Suddenly, Terry Funk gets on the apron and slaps The Blue Meanie, only for The Blue Meanie to knock him off the apron. Funk then puts himself through the timekeeper's table. After the match, Terry Funk shows up with a piece of the destroyed table and uses it to take out The Meanie and Nova. After ramming Nova head-first into the ring apron, Paul E. Dangerous shows up with security, and Terry Funk tries to fight them off.
Before the next match, Tommy Rich says it is a pleasure for The Full Blooded Italians (Rich, Little Guido, Ulf Herman) to be in New Orleans, Louisiana, especially went LSU cannot beat Tennessee or Georgia, and goes on to say that Mike Ditka and the New Orleans Saints are a bunch of losers just like the crowd. Tommy Rodgers says that nobody in the FBI is not a real Italian, and calls Little Guido "the only flunky of the whole bunch." He then says it is good to be in New Orleans and that it doesn't matter what the Saints' win-loss record is as he is kicking Tracy Smothers' ass.
Tommy Rodgers beats Tracy Smothers despite the interference of Full Blooded Italians (Rich, Little Guido, Ulf Herman), especially Little Guido, who almost hits Smothers with the Italian flag. After the match, Tracy Smothers almost takes his anger out on Little Guido, but Tommy Rich hits Rodgers with the flag. Chris Chetti runs back into the ring, takes outSMothers and Little Guido before taking out Tommy Rich. After the match, Ulf Herman shows up with Mabel, and they both jump Chetti and Rodgers from behind. Before Mabel can splash Chetti through a table, Spike Dudley shows up and becomes a punching bag for both Mabel and Herman, but he rolls off the table before being splashed through it by Mabel. Spike Dudley fights back, hitting Herman with the Acid Drop. He goes for the pinfall, and moves out of the way when Mabel tries to hit a splash on him. Spike then kicks Mabel in the crotch before hitting him with the Acid Drop, then pins both men for a three count.
we see footage of Balls Mahoney, Axl Rotten and Masato Tanaka. Axl Rotten says The Dudley Boyz (Buh Buh Ray and D-Von Dudley) have succeeded and that they stand before them as broken men in the coliseum, not even dressing wtih everyone else, as they are ashamed and embarrassed. Tanaka and Mahoney are not even ready to wrestle, and the Louisiana State Athletic Committee has stated that if the Dudleys even pick up a chair, they are stopping the match. They may not be ready to go, but they have heart, and he and Mahoney have had it since Day 1, and that nothing will keep the three of them down. They will take The Dudleys from pillar to post and beat them like their parents should have, because all they care about now are giving The Dudleys a receipt for what they did to them, and they will beat their asses live on pay-per-view.
Before the next match, Tammy Lynn Sytch shows up, removes her black-and-white striped stockings, and puts on white socks and sneakers for her role as one of the two special guest referees in the next match in front of the crowd.
Lance Storm beats Jerry Lynn. During the match, Tammy Lynn Bytch breaks up a count by special guest referee Tammy Lynn Sytch, who proceeds to take her into the ring and strip her down to her bra and panties. The other special guest referee, Mikey Whipwreck, shoves Sytch and hits Bytch with a Whippersnapper while trying to prevent a catfight. Jerry Lynn eats a Whippersnapper, then Lance Storm hits Mikey with a low blow. After a slow count from Sytch, Storm confronts Sytch, and Lynn is hit with a blow before being hit with a Whippersnapper from Storm. Sytch heats a Whippersnapper from Mikey as Jerry Lynn puts Lance Storm in an inside cradle, then Mikey turns it over so that Storm's shoulders are off the mat, thinking that Tammy Lynn Sytch hit him with the low blow when it was really Storm.
Terry Funk apologizes, saying he did not want to punch Tommy Dreamer in the face, but as he clenched his fist, his fingers shot out in his face, and he doesn't want to put his fingers in anyone's face. He plans to walk out of the arena, and he apologizes to Joey Styles, Paul E. Dangerously and the fans for making a terrible ass out of himself. He then says he is leaving the building now, and is heading home - forever.
Before the next match, Buh Buh Ray Dudley tells the world that they are looking at are the four-time ECW World Tag Team Champions, the most skilled, scientific wrestlers in the world and the three toughest sons-of-bitches to ever step foot in an ECW ring. He knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is not one person in the back or in the arena man enough to take the tag team titles from them. When Axl Rotten shows up with Balls Mahoney and Masato Tanaka, Axl Rotten tells referee Jim Molineaux to get out of the way, as ECW has wrestling that WCW and WWF cannot touch and that they do not listen to doctors or state athletic commissions. He then says that when he looks at The Dudley Boyz (Buh Buh Ray, D-Von and Big Dick Dudley), he sees "three punk ass bitches" and "three big, fat sweaty pussies." He says to screw the state athletic commission, as he knows New Orleans is all about getting drunk on Bourbon Street and getting into a fight. He then asks if the fans want to see a brawl, then says to ring the bell and make chairs legal.
Balls Mahoney and Masato Tanaka beat The Dudley Boyz (Buh Buh Ray and D-Von Dudley) to win the ECW World Tag Team Championships! During the match, referee Jim Molineaux is inadvertently knocked out with an elbow from Tanaka, allowing Sign Guy Dudley, Big Dick Dudley and "The Quintessential Studmuffin" Joel Gertner to all get involved. This leads to a chair war between both teams, as well as Jim Jones to make a pinfall only to fake a rotator cuff injury before he can make it to three - and a chair shot to the end in response. Tanaka then kicks out of the Dudley Death Drop, causing a quarrel between the Dudley Boyz that nearly costs them the match while Axl Rotten handcuffs Big Dick Dudley to a ring post. The Dudleys then bring out a pair of tables - one of them the timekeeper's - but Rob Van Dam and Sabu show up and put both Dudleys through them, allowing Tanaka and Balls Mahoney the win.
"The Franchise" Shane Douglas says a lot can be said about him and The Triple Threat (Douglas, Bam Bam Bigelow, Chris Candido), and while the fans don't have to like him and they can hate them all they want, he is not a liar. He as the best commentator in the business when Bigelow and Candido were in the ring, and has told everybody there is a reason why they will prevail tonight. Rob Van Dam, Sabu and Taz will fail because Taz is out for himself, Sabu is pissed because he's not a tag champion and because RVD is a second-place player. They stand united because they have been friends before ECW existed, and they will be friends long after while their opponents will turn on each other when they get the chance.
We see a video package of The Triple Threat ("The Franchise" Shane Douglas, Chris Candido, Bam Bam Bigelow) and the team of Sabu, Rob Van Dam and Taz.
"The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer's tag team partner is none other than Jake "The Snake" Roberts.
"The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer and Jake "The Snake" Roberts beat Justin Credible and Jack Victory. During the match, The One Man Gang and Rod Price show up and attack Dreamer and Roberts, then New Jack - who is supposed to be incarcerated after his attack on Jack Victory from earlier - shows up with Kronus and a ton of weapons, and takes out Price, The One Man Gang, Jack Victory, Jason and Justin Credible. After the beatdown, Lance Wright and Chastity get involved, but Chastity is put in a piledriver by Dreamer and Wright is alid out. Nicole Bass gets hit with a low blow and a DDT from Roberts when she yells at Dramer, then Dramer tosses Justin Credible into a ladder before Roberts hits Justin with a DDT on the ladder for the win. After the match, Terry Funk - who is supposedly out of the building after he said he left - shows up and congratulates Dreamer, then chews him out for picking Roberts for a partner, saying he is "a piece of crap" compared to him. Funk says Dreamer has used him one too many times, even as Dreamer tells Funk he told him he didn't want to do it, and this leads to Funk repeatedly calling Dreamer an asshole. Dreamer finally loses his cool after Funk repeatedly smacks, saying he'll turn his back on him but he will never hit him. Funk hits Dreamer as soon as he turns his back and repeatedly hits him with the microphone before tossing Dreamer in and out of the ring and ramming his head into the entrance ramp.
Rob Van Dam says the people has tuned in to kick The Triple Threat's ("The Franchise" Shane Douglas, Chris Candido, Bam Bam Bigelow) asses, and also to see Sabu and Taz. We then see footage of Taz, who says that he finds it hard to admit, but says Douglas is correct as he could care less about his tag team partners tonight and is using them to get to him. With his hands, he will choke him out with the Katahajime. In a few short moments, he will hook the Katahajime on Douglas.
Before the next match, "The Franchise" Shane Douglas says he only fears an organization who takes a punk with a fake belt and calls him a champion after he built the company. He then says Taz is no world champion, and calls him a bitch, a pussy and a punk. He calls Rob Van Dam "a Franchise wanna-be" who holds a trinket he threw down and did not want anymore. He says Sabu "ain't shit," and doesn't have a belt thanks to him, Bam Bam Bigelow and Chris Candido. The three of them are tired of hearing there is "another Triple Threat," and that they are the only Triple Threat and only one World champ. He tells the fans to sit down and to watch their heroes get smacked around in the ring. When Sabu and Rob Van Dam show up, they are attacked from behind by The Dudley Boyz (Buh Buh Ray and D-Von Dudley) until Taz shows up and makes quick work of them.
Sabu, Tazz and Rob Van Dam beat The Triple Threat ("The Franchise" Shane Douglas, Chris Candido, Bam Bam Bigelow) after Taz gets Douglas in the Tazmission only for Sabu to hit an Arabian Facebuster on Taz to get the pinfall and the win. Taz and Sabu have a confrontation over this after the match, and it almost gets physical. Bill Alfonso has to keep both men from tearing each other apart, but Taz eventually snaps and almost goes at it with Sabu before leaving.
