Making his third appearance at the Ballpark Brawl, this is Sabu, the homicidal, genocidal, suicidal madman from Bombay, India. The nephew of the original Chic. He's led to the ring by his manager Bill Alfonso, and he's looking to create havoc at the Ballpark [Music] Brawl.

with that Singapore Kane accompanied to the ring by Todd Gordon one of the founding fathers ECW oh and then the Kane right across the for of Sabu we've now introduced a ladder into the proceedings I'll be honest I oh my

Here we go. We're at our main event of Ballpark Brawl 5. We've got Sabu and Sandman, but we've also got hardcore legend Mick Foley joining us for color commentary. Ni, I'm just saying, safe to say you're very familiar with all of these gentlemen in the ring.

air baseball stadium or was just logic out the window right now well I heard it announced as a Singapore Cane and a chair on a pole I guess the logic being sandman's the master of the cane Sabu the master of the chair but I didn't see

Very familiar. Looks like the boys are off to a fast start. I got to tell you, I don't usually plead with the wrestlers, but before the match, I pleaded with S man, "Please give us the quick entrance tonight." And S man said, "No way. They get the 5 minute 20 second entrance because the fans in Buffalo deserve the best."

chair seu whips him in wait a minute oh right into the St chair goes the face of Sandman a drop to hold full force under the farhead of the Sandman and now Sabu laying in some heavy boots oh then Sandman Ming up that

Now, Sabu and Sandman is whose forehead is already busted open from those beer can shots he gave himself. I think it's already into the steel barrier. Guy like Sabu, Sandman needs to be woken up. That type of punishment does not harm him; it just serves to rile him up, fire him up so we can put the best, craziest show on for the crowd.

off from the hardcore Legend Mick Foley himself I believe I instituted that move into ECW although I may be mistaken because I certainly have ripped off a lot of moves myself well how everything comes around hardcore homecoming you

Well, if he was going to wake up, don't you think he maybe should try buttermilk instead of beer before a match? This match has already left the cod fights in the squared circle as we are getting ECW chants here from the crowd.

was propped up in the corner you can see Sandman clutching his right ankle but se's going to give him no Corner oh leg upop with the chair there's only so much pain that a case of beer can anastasiz Sandman really

I think there may have been a feeling that, you know what, that last match that man did did it all inside the ring. Now we're going to see Sandman and Sabu do it all outside the ring. Now Sandman with that Singapore Cane, accompanied to the ring by Todd Gordon, one of the founding fathers of ECW.

all right for the future time [Applause] being no Sidman on that table is now Sabu back into the ring oh my God he just put sand man through that table you've got to be kidding me broken B single the right

Oh, and then the cane right across the forehead of Sabu. We've now introduced a ladder into the proceedings. I'll be honest, I—oh my! The suplex, suplexing the table onto the prone body of Sabu as if the wild man from Bombay had not suffered enough in his career already.

ram just driving Sandman through that table no that's right Mick you've been in hard matches before right it reminds me of a rhyme I used in my book Tales from rescal where it said both picked up young helpless Shane and approve that

Gentlemen, I have to ask you, is there any logic to a ladder in an open-air baseball stadium, or was just logic out the window right now?

right now but no I don't want to get a cheap plug in here because this is a heck of a match I know these guys both take pride in what they do there was a feeling I think once in a while that hey

Well, I heard it announced as a Singapore Cane and a chair on a pole. I guess the logic being Sandman's the master of the cane, Sabu the master of the chair. But I didn't see them scale the ladder to use the weapons. It seems like the weapons were already in play, and it seems as if Sandman knows how to swing a chair as well, and he's pretty good at swinging a chair.

business they're not going to let the fans down they're not going to let them themselves down they're certainly not going to let us down what kind of emotions does this kind of a match evoke for you Mick Foley on the sidelines

Sabu whips him in—wait a minute—oh, right into the steel chair goes the face of Sandman. A drop toe hold, full force under the forehead of the Sandman, and now Sabu laying in some heavy boots. Oh, then Sandman, whipping up that middle rope over the chair right on Sandman. One, two, and I got to say, gentlemen, everything comes around in wrestling. That drop toe shades of your old friend Raven.

so far to call Sandman my friend but I there's a guy who works hard I look at it and I say what the heck was I ever doing in that match but these guys are going to put their

Well, well, I think Raven may have ripped it off from the hardcore legend Mick Foley himself. I believe I instituted that move into ECW, although I may be mistaken because I certainly have ripped off a lot of moves myself.

is he in ring shape that's what I want to know the amazing thing is I saw Sabo several months ago looked like he'd never wrestle again and now arguably he's back and better than ever s and man now rolling

Well, how everything comes around. Hardcore homecoming, you were there, and it was Raven, Sabu, and Sandman in the triple threat match. It was—I thought it was Funk, Sh Douglas, and Sabu in a triple threat. Oh my goodness, where you—Sandman upside down into that ladder that was propped up in the corner. You can see Sandman clutching his right ankle, but Sabu's going to give him no corner.

there the authority in this match now man takes that steel ladder props it up in the corner fires away the Southpaw those left hands now Samu fighting back those right heads taking sand man off his feet I have a feeling we're going to see

Oh, leg up top with the chair. There's only so much pain that a case of beer can anesthetize. Sandman really feeling it. I have a feeling the boys want to use the furniture. We're having the table taken right from under us. It's B Faro. Will he be all right here? I think you guys are going to go out of the table. I'm going to be all right for the future time. [Applause]

color man here I'm sorry that the hardcore Legends hogging the microphone well in your case I'll cut you some slack Mick a little bit of slack we we had three microphones to start with now we're down to two and I'm sure as hell

Being no Sandman on that table is now Sabu back into the ring. Oh my God, he just put Sandman through that table. You've got to be kidding me. Broken B single, the right field Bender.

indeed we were wearing them to promoter Chris Hill for putting on this tremendous show oh his Eagles already swollen don't do that Nick and now say boo to the top oh Sandman catches him before he can inflict any more damage onto the Sandman

Trust me, as a guy who's been on the receiving end of that type of damage, there's nothing like seeing the sight of Sabu's B hurdling towards you, knowing he'll stop at nothing to put you through that table, using his body as a battering ram, just driving Sandman through that table.

but no denying that's a tremendous atic feet in the ring for crying out loud guarded coming to help the sand man Shan to the ECW Arena take him out Todd you got a five count to get out of

No, that's right, Mick. You've been in hard matches before, right? It reminds me of a rhyme I used in my book Tales from Rescal where it said both picked up young helpless Shane and approved that they were able. Both the Dudley boys slammed—I messed up my own rhyme, but it had something to do with Abel and table. They picked up young helpless Shane, slammed him through the table, and that book is on sale in fine bookstores right now.

Gordon he's not going anywhere oh and he kicks him right in another region oh that a CL oh my goodness an Ask kicking was not to be had Gordon choosing to kick at another part of the Anatomy s man I say it's time we give

But no, I don't want to get a cheap plug in here because this is a heck of a match. I know these guys both take pride in what they do. There was a feeling, I think, once in a while that, hey, are this is there going to be a letdown? Are they going to bother to try to top the last match? Sandman prides himself on being a hardcore icon. Sabu prides himself on being the wildest man in the business.

the face of an un Crunch at one point I believe a maneuver used in an automobile but this time using informational skills Todd Gordon and the Sam man have crunched Nick did Dominic d she ever teach you any of this in wrestling

They're not going to let the fans down. They're not going to let themselves down. They're certainly not going to let us down. What kind of emotions does this kind of a match evoke for you, Mick Foley, on the sidelines being used to being in these types of matches, being crowned the king of the death match, and now you're watching two of your friends involved in a match here at Ballpark Brawl?

middle of the Ring the Arabian face Buster had the right idea there Furniture stwn throughout the ring body thrown throughout the ring it's a car wreck out there Mick oh miss is with a cane sabo's got the cane

I, I don't know if I go so far to call Sandman my friend, but I—there's a guy who works hard. I look at it and I say, what the heck was I ever doing in that match? But these guys are going to put their bodies on the line.

oh oh my God yeah ho [Applause] [ __ ] hey hey you know you know I was just a little bit hung over when I got off the plane here earlier today I was up all night I you know it's
