RINGSIDE WRESTLING : JANUARY 1997

ECW tag mayhem!

GORDY & DREAMER VS ELIMINATORS

By George Napolitano 

[The ECW tag team of Terry Gordy and Tommy Dreamer was in the mood for a little EXTREME violence. Well, they had come to the ring place and they had signed to fight the right opponents (The Eliminators)!]

Tommy Dreamer has had quite a few problems since joining ECW, but most of his troubles had stemmed from the fact that he was a longer and had no one to help him in time of need. Sure he’s managed to spend time with both Beulah and Kimona Wanalaya, but when it was time to fight his battles inside the ring Tommy had no one to watch his back. Now however, Tommy shouldn’t have a fear in the world as he has two of the roughest, toughest, meanest men in the sport in his corner: “Dr. Death” Steve Williams and former Freebird, Terry “Bam Bam” Gordy. With Williams and Gordy around, the Eliminators, Brian Lee and everyone else in ECW better be very careful. 

[Power-bomb–Gordy-style!]

[Gordy uses his brute strength to topple his foe.]

[Naturally, there were chair shots outside the ring.]

“I’ve only been in ECW for a while but I see that there are quite a few men around here who think that they are really tough,” said Williams. “Well, where I come from you have to make your reputation inside the ring. You can talk big and bad, but you better be able to back it up in the ring. Right now, me and Bam Bam are here to help Tommy Dreamer in his battles with the Eliminators and Brian Lee. Once we straighten that out we are going after Raven and his crew. I’ve been watching this Raven ever since I got here and he really thinks he is something else. Well, he better not cross paths with me or Bam Bam or he’s going to have to pay a huge price.”

[Dreamer has that gagging feeling.]

“Tell him about Shane Douglas, too,” added Terry Gordy. 

“He’s another one who’s really stuck on himself.” said Steve Williams. “He struts around like he’s God’s gift or something and I’ve heard that he’s even said a few thing about us. Well he’s going to kiss that belt of his good-bye if he ever gets in our way!” 

For the past several years Williams and Gordy have not been seen in the States as they have concentrated all of their time and energy to wrestling in Japan. There they are two of the top stars in the Orient and they are constantly in demand. Now that the two stars are back in the States and wrestling in ECW, the knowledgeable East Coast fans are in for quite a treat.

“I’ve had a few different partners in my day, but none of them were ever quite as tough or possessed as much wrestling knowledge as Steve Williams and Terry Gordy.” said Tommy Dreamer. “They are simply phenomenal. I’ve learned more just being around them the last few weeks than I’ve ever learned in all the years I’ve been wrestling. Having Gordy and Williams around all I have to do now is concentrate on my opponent as I know that they will be there to watch my back if anyone tries to interfere.”

[Beulah McGillicuddy kept a close eye on Dreamer throughout the match.]

[Gordy uses his size and strength to his advantage.]

[Dreamer gets a face full o’ guard rail.]

It’s going to be interesting to see what happens in ECW now that Terry Gordy and Steve Williams have joined the ranks. Both are proven champions and , with them in the fold, the balance of power could very well change in the coming months. 

[Gordy goes for the pin, but Eliminator teamwork breaks it up.]

“broken builds” this. “use the orb” that. you fools. the true best strategy to beat honour mode is to encourage safer and smarter decisions throughout your adventure by roleplaying as none other than faerun’s central authority on occupational safety and workplace accident prevention legislation

What truly got Johnny killed is his relentless flirting with Wade's Angel Baby

the silliest fandom problem to have is curating my online space so carefully and so vigilantly that when mentions of a truly delusional post break containment and intrigue me, i have to use quantum physics and enter the fifth dimension just to find that post because i want to have a vicious little popcorn moment

i’m really sorry (kunai + dead ringers you)

pretending Deadpool and Wolverine aren’t textually a couple by the end of the movie is insane. just because it’s not explicitly stated and they don’t kiss doesn’t mean we have to play dumb.

“oh but it was all played for jokes” shut the fuck up and apply two grams of your brain. the Honda odyssey scene aside, Deadpool has been obsessed with Wolverine for over a decade now. he finally meets him and he’s a colossal fucking loser. but he’s all Wade has left to save his family. and Wade is the only person left who believes in Logan. they’re reliant on each other. they save the universe by holding hands.

and then there’s the Honda Odyssey scene.

sometimes films do this thing where they employ Visual Metaphors to convey ideas that are not explicitly stated. the Honda Odyssey scene is four minutes of two costumed men repeatedly stabbing each other in a car until they’re covered in one another’s internal fluids and so exhausted they fall asleep.

like come on.

that’s not subtext that’s just text.

don’t be stupid.

“it’s queerbaiting if they don’t explicitly say it” my dear idiot the lego batman movie is right there.

i think they were with raven around cyberslam 1996, but not in any "official" capacity. raven was buying everyone out at the time lmao

Y'know what that does ring a bell now that you say that, thank you!

I kinda blacked out Cyberslam '96 from my memory because Cactus Jack's match from it was so deeply upsetting (in part because I thought it was his last ECW match) that I stopped watching ECW for a week. I've already been bracing myself for the rewatch as I'm cataloging lol

"The thing that always carries it through is that you love these two guys, but most importantly, that you love them as brothers. It’s almost like they’re each their own person, but they’re stronger when they’re together, when it’s about these two brothers." — Eric Kripke

Wade forgot how to flirt properly as the beautiful woman's charms stunned him
