Match observations:
Notes from Backstage:
Vampiros contract is set for renewal. Some are worried he will not resign. If
he decided to leave King of the Death will be his last program and look for Vic
to really make a play for Christopher Daneils to join his faction. If he does
resign with the company some beleive he will be placed into the heavyweight
title picture, as the USWA wants to promote more international stars for
upcoming tours.
