Kenny McBride Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 WCW folded in 2001. I don't know about that particular match, but I'd guess it was either after WCW folded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopper Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I don't remember that specifically, but I'd guess Bigelow was just one of the many guys brought in to be victims of the Path Of Rage~. Around that time, the money he'd have wanted to go full-time might have been prohibitive for ECW or maybe he had other offers and didn't want to hang around or any number of other things. I certainly don't remember him as an ECW regular through most of 1997.Bam Bam's only other 1996 appearance in ECW I can remember is the match with Terry Gordy - Bam Bam vs Bam Bam.I don't think he started full-time until summer 1997, immediately joining the Triple Threat.

Paid Members martyngnr Posted August 12, 2008 Paid Members Share Posted August 12, 2008 Question:Did AJPW have some sort of arrangement with WCW back in the early 00's? I'm asking because I recently watched a Triple Crown match involving Keiji Mutoh and Scott Hall, who was decked out in his Wolfpac Kliq attire. If so, to what extent was this arrangement, and did any other notable matches happen because of it?I think their match happened after Hall had been fired by WCW. Either way Hall has a habit of wearing his old gear. When he had a match with John Tenta for Tenta's promotion he wore the Wolfpac gear but the Razor elbow pads! Random eh?

Kenny McBride Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I thought the Spike series was '98 as well. The '97 version of the Triple Threat was Candido, Douglas and Brian Lee. I have a great pic of them and me flashing the sign at the Cyberslam convention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of pictures and Hall was looking super-rough at the time - unsurprisingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a great pic of them and me flashing the sign at the Cyberslam convention. But didn't Brian Lee leave the Triple Threat (and ECW) by being the fake Rick Rude at Barely Legal?He went full time as Chainz in the WWF that summer.Bam Bam had already been in the Triple Threat before his match with Douglas at November To Remember 1997.
