DEADLOCK Podcast #310 (Video)

Justin Credible vacated the ECW Tag Team Championships with Lance Storm after he became ECW World Champion. Thus, on the September 1st, 2000 episode of ECW on TNN they held a ECW Tag Team Title tournament. Emanating from the historic Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, this episode would feature 4 tournament matches. Rhino and Justin Credible vs. Sandman and Chilly Willy, Simon Diamond and Johnny Swinger vs. Roadkill and Danny Doring, and Tommy Dreamer and Jerry Lynn vs. Rhino and Justin Credible. The main event would see Tommy Dreamer and Jerry Lynn vs. Simon and Swinger vs. Tajiri and Mikey Whipwreck with the winner becoming new ECW Tag Team Champions. Also, Billy Corgan would accompany Steve Corino to the ring, playing New York, New York on his guitar. All this and more as ECW is on the road to Anarchy Rulz 2000 Plus, the DEADLOCK $5 Patreon Q&A returns. You ask the questions and we give you the answers!

Anybody looking for an easy "in" to DPW should watch a Tag Festival or Carolina Classic show. Those one night tournaments are a great way to get caught up to speed: you'll see a lineup of company mainstays, some awesome guest stars, a couple of balls out non-tournament matches, and a finale that sets up a big match and/or a new status quo. Never been let down by a DPW show, but those two always deliver on a higher level.

Speaking as someone who grew up 35 miles from Sioux City, no lies detected. I totally admit wondering how those house shows went when I watched the episode. Then Tony becomes INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER and I laughed. My regionally-biased favorite part of this week's pod.

Before he bought the NWA, Corgan tried to buy TNA. And before that had an indy fed in Chicago called Revolution Pro Wrestling. He could have possibly bought ECW if he really wanted to at this time, which is crazy to think about.
