Backstage Notes:

USWA made a quick decision that they could have Heatwave in Mexico City. Konnan
and Ultimo Guerrero were major players in putting the show together. 

New Jack will make his 4th title defense against Taz at Heatwave. This match has
a lot of those in the wrestling world asking "who will come out on top"? Taz is one
of the best in the business, but New Jack has played the mental game to a tee with 
all of his opponents. 

AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe is being booked as a high impact match for the fans. We
will get a chance to see how good these two really are at Heatwave.

Next weeks Velocity taping from Long Island will have a Main Event of Christopher
Daniels vs Vampiro!
