this get Nigel into the second round of the tournament, but this is a great 
demonstration of why Nigel is one of the top contenders to the singles titles
in the USWA.

[Konnan interferes against Doug Williams]

Konnan warned Williams to watch his back, and tonight Konnan gets involved
and costs Williams a chance at the 2nd round of the European Cup.
Konnan came out and tripped up Williams. A fight broke out ringside when
Williams went after him. The ref tried to get Williams back in the ring, 
but Dougs temper got the best of him when he shoved the ref to the ground and
was DQed. Scorpio moves on to the 2nd round.

Too Cold took his game to a new level making McGuinness submit and give up
the European Cup! Scorpio wins the tournament and will get his chance at any
title in the USWA! The question now is what title will he try to win?


Card rating: *** 1/2


Match observations: 

Backstage Notes:

2 Cold gets the victory over Nigel in what many are calling an upset. Everyone
in the company believes 2 Cold is going to use this victory to get another shot
at the X-Division title currently held by Jerry Lynn. 

We got a chance to hear from Chris Harris for the first time and we now know
what was on his mind when he ended the relationship with James Storm. Harris
will meet James Storm in a match where the loser leaves the USWA!

Nigels big win over the Global champion Christopher Daniels really turned some
heads tonight. If Nigel is going to go for the title in London, tonight was a
wakeup call to Daniels that he might be one of the more competitive opponents
that he has ever faced!
