After providing color commentating on SmackDown alongside Michael Cole, Tazz returned home to ECW where he spices up the booth, first with Joey Styles, now with Mike Adamle.

Known as "The Human Suplex Machine," Tazz was among the most feared and respected athletes to ever step into an ECW ring. Perhaps no one was a more dominant ECW Champion than this tough-as-nails native of the Red Hook section of Brooklyn, New York. His kata hajime hold, known as the Tazzmission, was among the most dangerous submission maneuvers ever displayed in the ring.

Tazz first came to prominence in 1993 when he joined ECW. In almost seven years in ECW, Tazz became an icon in Philadelphia and beyond. Using his football and judo backgrounds to his advantage, Tazz won every championship the promotion had to offer. He held the ECW Tag Team Championship three times and the ECW Television Championship twice, even creating his own FTW Championship at one point.

After a lengthy rivalry with Sabu that is regarded as one of ECW's most bitter, Tazz reached his zenith in ECW in 1999 when he won the ECW Championship, which he held for nearly a year.

Tazz made his WWE debut when he defeated Kurt Angle at the 2000 Royal Rumble in New York's Madison Square Garden.
