Just when you thought it was safe, the overachiever from Red Hook, Brooklyn is back.
"The Human Suplex Machine" Taz, a former Grand Slam champion shocked the wrestling world when he made his return to Extreme Championship Wrestling, choking out Mike Awesome and regaining the ECW World Heavyweight championship he had lost several months ago.
An intense combatant, Taz meshes his strict martial arts and grappling background with his rough childhood growing up on the streets of Red Hook, allowing him to outwrestle and outbrawl anyone, often in a matter of minutes. A former Grand Slam champion in ECW, Taz is a lethal competitor, utilizing a judo choke that was banned in competition, the Tazmission, to choke out everyone in his path of rage.
Taz's wars in ECW with the likes of Sabu and Shane Douglas are the stuff of legend, and now, he is back where the legend began...at the top of Extreme Championship Wrestling.
The World Heavyweight champion is back, as miserable and as dangerous as ever. God help anyone who stands in his way.
