It was just announced that TNA will be taping One Night Only: Old School on 12/30 at the Mid-Hudson Civic Center in Poughkeepsie, NY.

Already announced is Tommy Dreamer vs. Bully Ray in a Falls Count Anywhere Street Fight.

The angle was put together as a way to cross promote TNA's 12/30 One Night Only: Old School PPV taping in the same venue. The idea here is that TNA will promote Dreamer's HOH and help raise it's profile by acknowledging it (and giving HOH the aura of being somewhere where "anything can happen") while TNA gets the chance to promote their PPV locally with an outside the box idea.

Dreamer will be working the taping against Bully Ray in a Falls Count Anywhere Street Fight. He has not signed a TNA deal.

I was told the angle is just an example of TNA trying to attempt more unique and creative ways to promote their live events heading into 2014.

The PPV will be promoted as being the first ever TNA PPV in New York State. Tickets for the taping will go on sale this Friday 11/15 at 10 AM.

Dreamer took the mic and said he has an announcement before everyone leaves. He said that they had a great show again thanks to the fans. He said a 69 year old man with a torn abdominal stole the show. Dreamer said that this will be the last time you see them tag and it's been a hell of a run from 1995 on, so thank you very much.

Funk said that Dreamer is a great man and gives him more credit than he deserves. He said that Dreamer was there to stay from day one. Funk said that not many people knew it but he knew that Dreamer had it, because he knew Dreamer loved the profession that Terry's father taught him.

Dreamer said that by the size of this house, they are of this house, they are onto something and that's the next show...and then BULLY RAY hit the ring from the crowd and laid out both Funk and Dreamer. He began whipping them with a chain.

Bully grabbed the ring mic and said, "Do you know who I am?" He kept whipping Dreamer and Funk. He told Dreamer that he was his best friend in the world but Dreamer doesn't invite him to HOH? "That's how you do me?" He attacked Dreamer. He invited Dreamer to come back here on December 30th - One Night Only - TNA presents Old School. He challenged Dreamer to face him in an Old School Street Fight with Falls Counting Anywhere in the business.

Ray said that he wouldn't miss this in the entire world. He said he was going to destroy Terry Funk and no one can do a damn thing about it. Spike Dudley hit the ring and went for the Acid Drop but Bully tossed him and attacked him.

Devon hit the ring. They teased fighting but instead hit Dreamer with 3D. Bully said that he's been waiting for this moment his entire career. He told Devon they were going to piledrive him through the table.

ENTER SANDMAN HITS.

Sandman hit the ring and caned the Dudleys but was overwhelmed. He was caned and left laying. Bubba said this is what happened when you mess with the best tag team in the world. He said tonight was House of Hardcore 3D. He and Devon walked out.

The heroes recovered. Dreamer said that HOH is going to kick the "living sh**" out of TNA.

Dreamer thanked Funk and said the ring is his because he earned it more than anyone in the business. They left Funk in the ring.

Funk said that he hopes everyone has a safe trip home because he loves them all so damn much. He said that he thinks of them all. This is the House of Hardcore, and "by God, it's a resurrection of hardcore....and its going to be here forever....FOREVER.....FOREVER.....FOREVER....AMEN !"

The ending sounds like a classic ECW ending. Nice promotion between the two companies too.

MEH! It'll be hilarious to watch though.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

As a fan of both guys, I'm all for this. I just hope Funk stays away from everything.

TNA should do this with ROH or DragonGate or Triple A, atleast it doesn't make your maineventers look like guys trying to relive their past glory. I could easily watch this on youtube from the original ECW.

TNA should've been cross promoting years ago, kind of a case of too little, too late.

Have no interest in this to be honest.
