A New Era Begins

CyberSlam (2000) was the fifth and final CyberSlam professional wrestling event produced by Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW). The event took place on April 22, 2000 at the ECW Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[2][3]

The scheduled main event of CyberSlam saw ECW mainstay Tommy Dreamer defeat Taz to win his first ECW World Heavyweight Championship. Taz, who had signed with the World Wrestling Federation earlier that year, won the championship from Mike Awesome, who had signed with World Championship Wrestling. As Dreamer celebrated his victory, Justin Credible attacked him before challenging him to an impromptu match. Credible defeated Dreamer after Francine turned on him, ending Dreamer's title reign just a few minutes after it had begun.[4]
