"chico", using "chico" in nearly all of his sentences, and occasional wandering into Spanish announcing. In this period, the promotion's main stars were homegrown wrestlers, but many former stars of Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) passed through XPW following the fall of that promotion. In 2000, Rob Black purchased six front row tickets for ECW's Heat Wave pay-per-view. The tickets for the show were given to a cadre of XPW talent, as their mission was to make it clear that ECW was on enemy turf. At the beginning of the main event, the XPW contingent (The Messiah, Kid Kaos, Supreme, Kristi Myst, Homeless Jimmy, and Kris Kloss) donned shirts emblazoned with the logo of their home promotion, gaining the attention of security and Tommy Dreamer. Security ejected the XPW group and a brawl in the parking lot broke out between the XPW ring crew and the ECW wrestlers, though the XPW wrestlers were not involved. In the parking lot, several of the ECW wrestlers brutalized the XPW ring crew until several of the ring crew members were left bloodied. It was initially reported that Kristi Myst touched Francine and that prompted the incident, but Francine, herself, has since stated that she was never grabbed or touched by any of the XPW contingent, and other eyewitnesses supported the story that Francine was never touched. Although fans did throw up the XPW arm signature, XPW was not officially acknowledged on the telecast. On-screen, Joey Styles, ECW's color commentator, stated during the incident "apparently The Sandman has shared a few too many beers with the fans at ringside" and "apparently a drunken fan at ringside put his hands on Francine." Shortly after the ECW incident, XPW had their first-anniversary event, Go Funk Yourself, at the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena on July 22, 2000. The main event saw XPW World Heavyweight Champion Sabu defeat Terry Funk. The event was considered by many as a high point for XPW; though it was four more months until XPW put on another event. During the hiatus, an attempt to bring in Atsushi Onita, a pioneer of Japanese deathmatch wrestling, for an exploding ring match failed. One of the main storylines for most of 2001 concerned the heel stable known as the Black Army. The Black Army was headed by Rob Black, assisted by his wife Lizzy Borden and XPW's top star The Messiah, and feuded with Sabu.
