Extreme Nation - ECW on TNN recap for April 14, 2000

Joey Styles and "The Quintessential Studmuffin" Joel Gertner welcome everyone to tonight's show.

It is announced by Paul Heyman that last night at the Morratt Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, Tazz - who is currently in the World Wrestling Federation - shocked the wrestling world during the show, and that the footage of what he did will be shown later tonight.

Rhino beats Kid Kash in the final seconds of a match after the announcement by Paul Heyman.

We hear from Jazz, who says she wants to kill Dawn Marie and that she is not going to jail over her. She opens a door and meets with The Sinister Minister and Mikey Whipwreck - the latter of whom is setting playing cards on fire with a lighter - and tells The Sinister Minster to do something to Dawn Marie that is completely bleeped out. The Sinister Minister says she couldn't turn down a request from someone like her, but it will cost her. He offers his services in exchange for a few beers and some sex, but Jazz is not interested in quid pro quo and tells The Sinister Minister to get himself to church. Mikey asks the Minister if Jazz is always a wench or if it's just on Friday, and the Minister says that Jazz just doesn't like to drink beer. He and Mikey laugh, and the camera pans out to reveal that most of the deck of cards is on fire on the locker room floor.

The show is interrupted by Paul Heyman again, who says that Tazz shocked the entire wrestling world last night at the Morratt Center in Indianapolis, Indiana and that footage will be shown later tonight.

The Impact Players (Justin Credible and Lance Storm) retain the ECW World Tag Team Championships against Nova and Chris Chetti. Before the match, it is announced that Nova and Chris Chetti wiped "The Sexiest Man Alive" Jason this weekend at a house show to explain Jason's absence from ringside. During the match, Dawn Marie breaks up a pinfall, but is immediately attacked from behind by Jazz. Jazz is then hit with a piledriver by Lance Storm. Chris Chetti has Lance Storm where he wants him, but Justin Credible hits Chetti in the head with one of the tag team titles to allow The Impact Players to retain.

We see footage from last night at the Morratt Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, where Mike Awesome - still the ECW World Heavyweight Champion - shows up announced. All of a sudden, Tazz - who is currently in the World Wrestling Federation - shows up unannounced to his WWF entrance theme to face Mike Awesome in an impromptu wrestling match for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. In an impromptu match that sees a WWF talent face a WCW talent for an ECW title in an ECW ring, Tazz beats Mike Awesome with the Katahajime to win the ECW World Heavyweight Championship despite being signed to the WWF after "The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer shows up after referee Jim Molineaux is knocked down after Tazz is whipped into him by Mike Awesome. Molineaux is able to get back up and call for the bell. After the match, "Judge" Jeff Jones and Mike Awesome leave through the crowd. After the match, Dreamer raises Tazz's hand in victory.

Tajiri beats Little Guido and Super Crazy in a three-way dance . Little Guido is eliminated following a splash through a table by Tajiri that is meant for Super Crazy, and Super Crazy is eliminated after referee Mike Kehner is taken out due to Tajiri's mist - which was meant for Super Crazy - and Rhino decimates Super Crazy before piledriving him through a table. Referee Jim Molineaux has to run into the ring to make the count for Tajiri. After the match, Cyrus shows up and celebrates Tajiri's title victory, saying that Tajiri will hand the TV title over to the network at Cyberslam before claiming that he is bigger than TNN, life and God and that he is drunk on power. Suddenly, The Sandman shows up through the crowd.

After the commercial break, The Sandman is in the ring with Rhino, striking him with a Singapore cane. Cyrus shows up and flashes his TNN ID card, and Steve Corino tries to take the Singapore cane away from Sandman. Sandman turns around and stops him from doing it, but Tajiri spits red mist into Sandman's eyes and Rhino Gores Sandman and an official through two tables. Suddenly, Rob Van Dam returns on the shoulders of Scotty Anton with Bill Alfonso in tow. Cyrus threatens to do something if RVD that if he steps through the ropes, but Rhino stops him and says that if he steps through the ropes, he will "kick [his] fuckin' ass." RVD and Scotty Anton both get in the ring, and RVD takes out Jack Victory and Tajiri before standing toe-to-toe with Rhino to end the show.
