Super Crazy was booked to win a tournament in March for the World Television Championship after the title had been vacated by Rob Van Dam due to an injury. He defeated CW Anderson in the quarter-final round on March 4, Little Guido in the semi-final round and Rhino in the final round at the Living Dangerously pay-per-view, despite interference from The Network. Crazy made his first televised title defense against Rhino on the March 31 episode of "ECW on TNN". He dropped the title to Yoshihiro Tajiri in a three-way dance, also involving Little Guido on the April 14 episode of "ECW on TNN". After the title loss, Crazy faced Guido and Kid Kash in a three-way dance at CyberSlam, which Guido won.
