ECW Hardcore TV: "Unholy Alliance" Promo: (3.25.00) - This is the same promo that closed out the 3/24 TNN show. ECW Hardcore TV, airing the weekend of 3/24, opened with the devilish man without a name in mid ring, with Francine, Raven, Mike Awesome, and Judge Jeff Jones surrounding him. He said it was his idea to bring together Mike Awesome and Raven. He took credit, also, for the plan to capture the tag team titles. He said you must "give the devil his due." Francine took umbrage with the devilish man. The devilish man told Francine why doesn’t she show us her ... intelligence. Francine said no one knows the devilish man’s name, while everyone knows and loves her. Joel Gertner chimed in that he has known her and loved her. Joey Styles said he hears he’s not alone! Francine reminded people that she has managed world and tag team champions and she even told us she got Tommy Dreamer to a title! She said there is no way she was going to let the devilish man take credit for her actions. She demanded credit for Raven and Awesome’s tag title victory. She asked, "What about me? What about Francine?" The Impact Players, Dawn Marie, and Jason came out at this point.

ECW Wrestling on TNN: Dreamer/Angel Confrontation: (3.24.00) - Dreamer is standing in front of a Coca Cola vending machine, about to get himself a cold drink. Angel, the kingpin of the Baldies comes up to him and informs Dreamer that Raven has issued a bounty, in essense, a hit out on Dreamer and Angel needs the money and recognition that comes from taking Dreamer out, since he's the "King of the Streets." Suddenly, the other Baldies, Vic Grimes and Tony DeVito, show up in the lobby and jump Dreamer, tossing him through not one but TWO soda vending machines.

"Unholy Alliance" Promo: Raven/Awesome & Impact Players Confrontation - As we come back from break, we see Vandenberg (the Sinister Minister) standing in the ring, surrounded by Judge Jeff Jones, the ECW World Heavyweight Champion Mike Awesome, Raven and Francine. The Minister talks about how it was his idea that Raven and Awesome come together as an "Unholy Alliance" and how he led them to the ECW World Tag Team Championship and thus they should give "the Devil" his due. He then introduces the "Whore of Babylon" Francine and asks her to show the audience her ... intelligence. Francine grabs the mic and remarks that she feels insulted that the Minister would take credit for the Awesome/Raven team, especially since no one even knows what his name is in this company. On the other hand, everyone knows and loves her and any man would gladly have her, but there isn't a man in that audience whose man enough to take her. She's managed the World, Tag, and TV Champions and she wants her rightful credit. What about me? What about Francine? At that point, White Zombie hits the P.A. and we have the Impact Players come up to challenge Raven and Awesome, as Raven gets up to confront them as the show goes off the air.

ECW Wrestling on TNN: Raven Promo: (3.19.00) - We see Raven sitting in a boiler room in the bowels of the building. He's sitting down dressed completely in black and wearing a Marvel Comics "Punisher" skull logo t-shirt. Behind Raven, we see someone dressed similar to him with an exposed midriff but it's unclear who it is. Raven says he understands what Tommy is going through, since Raven was in the same situation when Beulah was taken from him by Tommy, just as he took Francine from Dreamer. Raven says life is like a game of cards, the cards are like fine blown glass and as friendships are built and life goes on, more and more cards are turned over, until one day, something catastrophic happens and the cards are blown off the table and shatter into a million pieces and all we want is for those cards to be intact. But wasn't the point just to play cards in the first place? At this point, the camera pans up and we see the figure behind Raven is none other than Francine, who utters "Quote the Raven ... nevermore."

Tommy Dreamer then hit the ring, but he received an Evenflow DDT for his trouble as well. A table is set up in the corner and Awesome crucifix-powerbombs Dreamer through the table like a rag doll, getting a "HOLY SHIT" chant going through the crowd.

ECW Wrestling on TNN: Francine/Dreamer/Raven Confrontation: (3.04.00) - At long last, the "Bound By Hate" angle explodes as Raven turns against Dreamer. For the fans at home who haven't been following the soap opera, here's a quick recap. Raven came back to ECW, saving Tommy Dreamer from Bubbah Ray and D-Von Dudley and in the process, he and Dreamer became the ECW World Tag Team Champions. The problem is, Raven and Dreamer are each other's arch nemesis and spent 2 1/2 years feuding in ECW (1995 to 1997) before Raven left for WCW. Raven, in his attempt to further torture Dreamer, made Dreamer lose all his matches unless the titles were at stake. However, Raven soon began to succumb to Dreamer's face impulses and started to "do the right thing." Eventually, he convinced Dreamer and Francine of this as well. All was well until the return of the Sandman. Dreamer and Sandman were friends, but Raven once stole the Sandman's family and their blood feud resumed. This stirred up Raven's heel impulses and The Impact Players took advantage and ambushed Raven crucifiying him on the Altar of Impact, eventually taking their tag titles after Raven saved Francine from a cane shot. Eventually Dreamer grew tired of Raven's antics (saving Francine and stranding him) and began to doubt his sincerity at being a face, yet Francine learned to trust him. A couple weeks ago, Raven accidentally DDT'ed Fracine, leaving Dreamer to take his anger out on Raven. Last week, the same happened, except this time Dreamer was blinded and he attacked Francine. This brings us to this week, as Francine came out to confront Dreamer, saying she thought his DDT on her was intentional, that she was nothing without him and that he needed her to get over. However, Raven didn't need her, Raven wanted her. She then asks Tommy whether he thinks the fans want to see his ass or her tits. Dreamer says take your fake tits and get the hell out of Cincinnati. At this point, she slaps Dreamer, Dreamer grabs her and is about to piledrive her. Raven, in a Dr. Strange t-shirt, runs in and lays out Tommy, opens the rope for Francine and leaves him for the Impact Players.
