An Extreme rebooking that I'll do in parallel with my current WWF/E rebooking. Starting with 1993 and covering the supercards and PPVs. I plan on going beyond 2001, as if ECW avoided bankruptcy (we'll get to that part when we'll reach the bridge) so let's get started!

ECW Battle of the Belts

Date: January 23rd, 1993

Location: ECW Arena, Philadelphia, PA


Contrarily to the original story, ECW already sets itself apart from the National Wrestling Alliance, claiming their independence early in 1993 with Shane Douglas being the inaugural ECW World Heavyweight Champion. In the main event of this first ECW big card, The Franchise defends against Tri-State stalwart Sabu!

Card & Results

1. Opening Match:

"The Philadelphia Phenom" Johnny Hotbody vs. The Sandman




A brutal brawl with multiple chair shots and hardcore spots.

The Sandman wins after a Singapore Cane-assisted DDT.

2. Tag Team Match:

The Eliminators (Jason & Perry Saturn) vs. The Bad Crew (Don E. Allen & Tony Stetson)




Fast-paced with high-flying maneuvers.

Eliminators secure the victory with a Total Elimination on Allen.

3. Mid-Card Match:

Eddie Gilbert vs. Tommy Dreamer




A heated rivalry match filled with brawling and interference.

Gilbert wins after interference from Kevin Sullivan.

4. Special Attraction:

Super Destroyer (with Kevin Sullivan) vs. Cactus Jack




A hardcore spectacle with chairs, tables, and barbed wire.

Cactus Jack pulls off a thunderous Double-Arm DDT on Super Destroyer for the win.

5. Main Event:

ECW World Heavyweight Championship

Shane Douglas (c) vs. Sabu




An explosive match featuring high-risk spots and weaponry.

Sabu nearly pins Douglas with a triple jump moonsault, but Douglas retains after interference from the Triple Threat (Kevin Sullivan & The Tazmaniac).

Post-match, Douglas and Sullivan attack Sabu, cementing their alliance.
