The bullrope match between Dusty and Steve Corino
The bullrope match between Dusty and Steve Corino

The 'American Dream' had an amazing career spanning 40 years with notable runs as NWA Champion, WCW World Champion and US Champion. Towards the end of his full-time wrestling career, Dusty by chance was at the soundstage that WCW filmed on when Paul Heyman was filming an ECW episode. Dusty was asked to appear on ECW TV to which he happily obliged, cutting some promo's on Steve Corino who had started to hate hardcore wrestling and call himself 'The King of Old School'. This eventually led to a couple of PPV matches between the two, including a bullrope match in 2000 at Living Dangerously that Dusty won in a gory spectacle that evidenced just what the promotion was all about.
