Oh he used to have a few, fairly botchy, moves which Joey Styles used to give comical names to. The top rope Heinekenrana, the Rolling Rock senton bomb, the White Russian Leg Sweep...

He looks like he never had any actual wrestling training, and just relied on hardcore matches and weapons and just picked up a few moves and some experience along the way. He clearly isn't very athletic, but his run is pretty entertaining.

I imagine Nash gave Sandman a decent match because they had friends in common. Raven and Nash go back to the early 1990's in WCW, when Raven was working as Scotty Flamingo and Nash was Vinnie Vegas, they where both part of DDP's Diamond Mine stable. Add to the fact that Hall was on rehab, Waltman was working up North, Nash was extremely likely to be hanging out with Raven, Sandman, and Saturn. All those guys where known Partiers at the time, and Saturn as had connection via Hunter(Saturn and Triple H trained together at the same wrestling school and worked the New England Indy scene at the same time)

Chastity was indeed fired for being in porn. The movie was called Live Bait. As soon as WCW's standards and practices found out, that was her gone.

[@ArcherSuh4721]

It's good that you're back, man! The Chastity story was that WCW fired her for doing p*rn which violated the rules in her contract. But there was an issue because she did that before she signed with the company. So they fired her for breaking the rules of a contract that she hadn't even agreed to at the time. To his credit, The Sandman took her side and it was another reason he wanted out of WCW and the feeling was mutual. There was a joke made about it on Saturday Night Live during Weekend Update. They reported the story and said, "WOW! Who knew pro wrestling fans watched porno?"

Firstly... welcome back Marky D!! I truly believe nothing can keep both a good individual and a good KZbin channel down. Sandman is like New Jack and Balls Mahoney in that they are really good workers despite not being good technical wrestlers. I'm 50/50 with the repetitive nature of the matches because it showed the writers knew about the ECW guy's great chemistry, but at the same time they over did the hardcore deathmatch stuff because they didnt understand ECW wasn't always about deathmatches.

@@delv213 I just checked on Cagematch and unfortunately, Goldberg had 34 matches during his first run in WWE. So, unless Marky bends the rules for Goldberg, then that video wouldn't happen. It would've been a good video because Goldberg usually won in his matches but he had those major big losses against Triple H that put a damper on his first WWE run, as well as Goldberg being in longer matches he's used to.
