Can anyone say if this was 100% real or was it a work? Some of the stuff they were coming out with was personal as fuck! 😂 especially New Jack he legit went in on Balls calling his wife a rat repeatedly, bringing up Balls past drug life honestly one of the best shoots I've watched, they both got that worked up they were sweating pints by the end of it, the only part that makes me think it's maybe a work is when New Jack pulls that massive blade out at the begining surely the cop would of had more to say? And also how did New Jack get the pepper spray past the cop aswell? Work or shoot It was brilliant either way in all fairness tho
Years ago, I was at an Indy show right after ECW collapsed. The event has a ton of the ECW guys on it, many of them touring together because it just ended. The main event saw Mahoney and Axl losing in a ladder match. Balls was wrapped in barb wire and put through the table.
After the show, my friend tried taking the table with him as a "souvenir". Security didn't like that, and they grabbed him and roughed him up a little bit. Seeing the opportunity, I grabbed the table and ran. (It was only a share, probably 1/3 of the total table). Some wrestlers were signing autographs, including Balls.
As I ran out of the building with some security following me, I ran passed balls and said "balls balls balls! Sign this quick??" He looked over and laughed hard, quickly signed it, and told me "head for the hills kid!" I went running towards the parking lot, table legs dangling, and quickly through it into the back of the waiting Van. He was the man for enjoying it, and signing it fast enough to aid in my escape.
Obviously not the worlds coolest story, but worth sharing since he just died, RIP to Balls.
Tommy Dreamer and Rhino were tagging, did the Mahoney punches together and got the crowd to chant "Balls." They pointed to the heavens before throwing the last one.
The show closed with AC/DC's "Big Balls," which was Balls' theme song, if you didn't know. Balls headlined a lot of shows in Queens over the years, and tonight was a really nice tribute. Lots of respect to Tommy and everyone who threw the show.
