The Pitbulls (often written Pit Bulls) were a tag team in Extreme Championship Wrestling that consisted of "Pitbull #1" Gary Wolfe & "Pitbull #2" Anthony Durante. The pair would often use an aided superbomb to finish of an opponent and were managed by Francine for a short while; she was quickly dubbed "The Beastmaster". In 1996 they were involved in an intense feud with the Eliminators which saw Francine receive Total Elimination two different times. One of the matches was a three on three dog collar match which saw Francine with the Pitbulls and Stevie Richards with the Eliminators. The Pitbulls got the win after Francine pinned Stevie Richards who was knocked out on the mat. Afterwards the Eliminators gave Total Elimination to Pitbull #1, Pitbull # 2, and Francine. The Pitbulls won the ECW titles on September 16, 1995 from Raven and Stevie Richards. One month later they would lose the titles back to Raven and Richards. The Pitbulls would never reclaim ECW Tag Team gold again. The Pitbulls even wrestled in the WWF, losing to The Brain Busters on June 27, 1989." The Pitbulls also had a match losing to The Hart Foundation
