šļø On This Day - 1998
Bam Bam & Taz Go Through the Ring at ECW Living Dangerously
27 years ago today, ECW Living Dangerously took place at the Asbury Park Convention Center in New Jersey, featuring one of the most iconic moments in ECW history.
In the highlight of the night, hometown hero Bam Bam Bigelow defeated Taz to win the ECW Television Championship. The match is best remembered for its jaw-dropping moment when Bigelow drove Taz through the ring, creating an unforgettable visual that would be replayed in ECW highlight reels for years to come.
(Video starts right before they go through the ring)
Elsewhere on the show, another legendary ECW moment occurred after the main event, where Al Snow defeated Chris Candido. Following the match, the ECW faithful flooded the ring with hundreds of styrofoam heads in tribute to Snowās signature gimmick, creating a surreal and electric scene.

What does everybody want?
āļø Winter Madness š
Welcome to Winter Madness, where weāre on a mission to crown the most popular WWE star across Morning Dirt Sheet! Every day, two legends step into the spotlight, but only one can advance.
Yesterday (7) Batista had an easy win over (10) The Big Show!
Today we have the final match-up for Round 1 of The Ruthless Aggression/PG Era as (2) Brock Lesnar takes on a Morning Dirt Sheet fan favorite (15) John Morrison! Tomorrow we will begin Round 1 of The Modern Era where stars like Roman Regins, Cody Rhodes, and Seth Rollins have dominated!
Side note: Since 2010, Iāve tried to convince my friends every year that John Morrison was finally going to win the Royal Rumble and get the push he deserves. Itās now been 15 years, and Iām still waiting... but I havenāt given up hope. So go ahead and vote for Lesnar if you want, but just knowāyou might be missing your chance to cast a vote for the 2026 Royal Rumble Winner, Johnny Morrison!
