10 Best Rivalries In ECW History

5. Taz vs. Bam Bam Bigelow

Though today Taz is a lovable commentator who sings along to entrance themes, he used to be a monster. Back when he had one Z instead of two, the former Tazmaniac was a force to be reckoned with in ECW, earning the nickname The Human Suplex Machine and choking fools out left right and centre with his patented Tazmission. 

Though he wasn’t big in stature, he exuded hoss energy, which made him the perfect match for another unconventional behemoth, Bam Bam Bigelow. The Beast From the East made a beeline straight for Taz when he first appeared in ECW in 1996, setting up a series of matches that would remain in the memories of fans for years to come. 

Across their many battles, the most memorable spot these two put together came at Living Dangerously 1998. With Taz on his shoulders, Bigelow threw himself down at the floor, sending both men crashing through the canvas in an all-time great visual.
