Two of the best teams to never make it to the top of the WWF are here, right after the death of ECW, to show what tag team wrestling is really all about! Recently, the WWE Vault released this match that has been talked about in shoot interviews for years. The FBI of Little Guido & Tony Mamaluke take on Danny Doring & Roadkill in a dark match before Monday Night Raw in 2001. We talk about the story of this match and what comes after it as well!

This was a fun match honestly and the crowd was into and enjoyed what they did. But I’m guessing Vince saw them do the Hart Attack and blew a gasket

The cartwheel was like a smackdown glitch, holy shit!

I'd rather watch this for 3 hours than any of the shit WWE is currently putting on TV.

Just tell them not to do everyone's shit and sign em all WTF it's a dark match never meant to be seen. Just tell them tone it down a little and don't do these moves specific moves. Cartwheel ref should get fired though. But hire everyone else 24 years ago. The crowd was reacting to everything what's the problem?

I love how we all universally said "this needs to be a watchthis episode" as soon as it was uploaded to the WWE Vault. Also, I was not mentally prepared for the cartwheel Referee 😂

Y’all also need to watch Danny Doring and Roadkill’s one and only televised fed tag match on Velocity against MNM (or really that whole episode of Velocity because there’s a BWO match on it too)

Holy fuck I have seen that ref cartwheel .gif so many times but I never knew where it was from.

LOCK 'EM UPPPP!!! ... and have SEX with 'em too. · July 6, 2025

I wonder if they ever even really had a chance at being signed off of this if they DIDN'T hit the Hart Attack and all the other possible finishers. Feels like as soon as the ECDUB chants started it was curtains for the god squad

D
Deathridersdickrider · July 18, 2025

But they're ecw guys in msg. And getting good reactions. So many missed opportunities cause Vince is a petty piece of shit cunt.

Does anyone else think Billy Kidman and Danny Doring look remarkably alike?

Signing these two teams would've changed tag team wrestling in WWE forever. Also, cartwheel ref totally caught me off guard.

If I ran WWF at the time, Amish Roadkill would get a fucking Hulk Hogan level push. He'd never lose.

D
D.J.O. · July 5, 2025

Vince McMahon clearly didn’t see the vision here. Amish Roadkill coulda been an all-timer boys. I’m disappointed Vinnie Mac…

Adam from Scotland - Johnny why did you shattered dreams my dog now he shits out his mouth and barks out his ass datsnotcool man · July 5, 2025

If they got signed we would live in a timeline with Amish Roadkill v Cartwheel Ref in a My Way promo, jussssttt oneeee

Hank Kronenberg · July 5, 2025

The fact that these four never got a contract is just another example of Vince burying his competition as he would do for the next 20+ years

Hulkios with Sliced Franks · July 5, 2025

Sorry boys but I'm afraid you did too many cool wrestling moves during your try out wrestling match. It's gonna be a no.

If they would a did more Irish whip gut kicks, they would be in the HOF by now.

01 Vince seeing guys doing moves and going "FUCKIN FIRE THEM. HOLY SHIT GET THEM THE FUCK OUT OF HERE. GET ME RAPIST KANE NOW"

*SHAKING MY HEAD* Rather than just taking the most talented/fun guys and booking well. They just made sure guys they kept were less talented/yes men so the undercard would look like an undercard. As if this makes up for booking top guys like shit. DPW WOULD NEVER!

Smarky Mcmark · July 5, 2025

they couldn't air this match because it would've changed the entire tag division overnight

If Roadkill was a few inches taller, he probably legit would have been a world champion

if I see a ref do a carthweel before a three count, they are no longer a ref, they are the fucknig champ
