This was WWC, Carlos’s company. It came when they got 12,000 people on an anniversary show where they did something big. So after we finish, we came with Vince, we came back as babyfaces.
We came in for six weeks, we did the big anniversary show. We had six weeks, and then two weeks off, right? We came in as babyfaces, turned to heels. We started working with the Invaders again. We had history from way back, we had at least 15 years history with them. We did a match, a cage match with them.
In the six weeks, in the end, we crucified José. José is Invader 1. We tied him up with barbed wire on the side of the ring, you know the side of the ring like a cross? We tied him up with barbed wire many times, different times for big shows. We tied him up, you know, crucified him on the cage, and left him there bleeding. That was a set up for the big anniversary show.
Come the anniversary show, it was an ambulance match, or something. It was a boot camp match. And all the big shows, they put seats on the lawn. They put 4,000, it depends on how many tickets they’ve sold. But these big shows, when times were good before Brody died, they’d draw between 22 and 24,000.
So they had ringside this time. The match, we did this little thing. Carlos brought us back, and we put the plan together. I had been booking down there before for Carlos. So we put together this whole program, we come back. And on this night, it was supposed to be Invader 3 and Invader 1 against Butch and me. But they brought in Invader 2. I forget his name. He’s Puerto Rican but he lives in New Jersey.
Anyhow, I got the heart punch at the end from Invader 1. The referee went down for the count, Butch threw the flagpole to Invader, and Invader 2 whacked f**king Invader 1 over the back. And the f**king riot.
We showed the video the next day, we showed the video on television in Puerto Rico the next day, which showed us paying Invader 1 off a week beforehand in the gym. We showed the video. And I still remember he didn’t understand why we didn’t show the video before, remember that Butch? The f**king idiot! We wouldn’t have done the angle! That’s how dumb he was.
