Three Way Dance
 

I was reading Hardcore History, and it mentioned a Three-Way Dance between Terry Funk, Sabu, and Shane Douglas in 1994. However, I can't find this match on OWW. Ummmm, help, please?

on Rise and Fall they mentioned that this match in Jan 94 I believe went a full 60 minute draw, I believe it had to be a great match as well as it got a standing ovation.

Smith b Mike Awesome, Terry Funk vs Sabu vs Shane Douglas in a "Triangle" match ended in a 60 minute time limit draw (Terry Funk retains his ECW World Heavyweight title)..

Not sure if that is what your looking for, or if you are looking for something more IN-DEPTH, but that is what I could find.

On that note, the match was freaking insane considering it occured in 1994. I know you could download the entire event over at pwtorrents.net a while ago. It was well worth it too.

So what's the difference between a Triangle Match, Three Way Dance and Triple Threat?

Triangle match is three wrestlers, with 2 in the ring at a time and third on the outside and waiting to be tagged in by either guy. One fall to a finish.

Triple threat is all 3 wrestlers in the ring at the same time. One fall to a finish.

3 Way Dance is all 3 in the ring at the same time and is elimination style.

At least that's how I was brought up to believe.

That's pretty good, except I've seen "Three Way Dance" Matches that have been one fall. I believe there were both "Elimination Style" and one fall "Three Way Dance" bouts in ECW and other organizations, while "Triple Threat" was the WWF(/E)'s term.

redoneja was on the money. Some promotions are too stupid to remember the rules to matches (WWE included) so they give a match a certain name when it is infact...not...

Also, Douglas/Funk/Sabu should be a MUST SEE for anyone who considers themselves a wrestling history buff. It is the match that kind of set in motion the new "90's Style" of storytelling.

I'd love to see three way dances return. Especially for the sake of video games.
