Between The Sheets

Kris & David are back with another episode of BTS and we are joined this week by first-time guest Kaia McKenna (@KaiaMcK) to discuss the week that was May 11-16, 1999.We start off with ECW, with the main discussion being their Hardcore Heaven pay-per-view, but there were a lot of other things going on, as they were having some major problems with talent leaving over being owed money and much more. We also talk about Shane Douglas, one of the talent who was leaving, cutting a “shoot promo” about ECW at the Break the Barrier show at the ECW Arena the day before the PPV and how that was received by the company.In the WWF, we talk about the No Mercy UK PPV, featuring the last appearance of Sable in her original run, as well as how the PPV was basically a glorified house show, plus all the other news from our week.In Japan, the landscape is changing, as newly-minted AJPW President Mitsuharu Misawa had a meeting with New Japan's top stars about putting together a possible working relationship down the line.
