Match observations: 

       Tonight, as VCW came to the San Diego Sports Arena, VCW was home to the 
usual chaos, and then some. Just a little under three weeks away from Survival 
of the Fittest, the continuation of the tournament is just one of many things 
shaping what should be one of the pivotal moments in the direction of the 
future of VCW.
       DeJohnnyration X is all but a non-entity in VCW at this point, as Marty 
Jannetty pretty much sealed the demise of the group by sending Johnny Smiles 
through the plate glass window of a barber shop, in one of the more ironic 
moments in wrestling history. On top of that, Virginia is having problems of 
her own with the Inquisition's Torturer... it looks like DeJohnnyration X might
be a thing of the past after tonight.
       The Annihilators' rivalry with the Immortals reached unheard-of levels 
of craziness when the Immortals attempted to ambush the Annihilators with cream
pies. To make the situation even more absurd, their plan failed, and the 
Immortals ended up hitting their Head Cheerleader, Nicole, with the pies 
instead. This has certainly given their feud a new, interesting twist, as both 
teams continue on their way to a now-confirmed two-out-of-three falls match at 
Survival of the Fittest.
       Jessica Judd made a startling announcement tonight, stating that not 
only would she accept Marylin Silvera's challenge to an Evening Gown Match at 
Survival of the Fittest, but also that she was so confident of winning that she
wouldn't wear any underwear beneath the Evening Gown. Needless to say, many of 
VCW's fans are hoping that her confidence is misplaced.
       Jessica Judd's roadie, Crimson, also made news tonight. When the 
Torturer attacked Virginia during her match with Jessica Judd, Crimson 
retaliated by attacking the Torturer, laying him out with a shot from Jessica 
Judd's guitar. He went on to warn any member of the Inquisition who wanted to 
hurt Jessica (as the Torturer had done months ago) of the fate that awaited 
them if they did, and stormed out of the ring. Jessica Judd didn't seem to 
share Crimson's sentiments, evidently not wanting a conflict to arise between 
Crimson and the Inquisition. At this point, it might be too late for that.
       Neytron DelArmeggio and Jacob Idol advanced past the first round in the 
Survival of the Fittest Tournament, which now looks like this:

Next week's matches will feature Troy Black against the Torturer, and Johnny 
Smiles (if he is able to compete after being attacked by Marty Jannetty) 
against Marylin Silvera. If Johnny Smiles is not fit to compete next week, 
Marylin Silvera may be given a bye to the quarter-finals, or an alternate 
opponent.
       The Ontario Color Show continued to fight their way to the top of the 
VCW tag team scene, earning a victory in the books against Hell's Bikers. In 
reality, this victory was a little hard for them to enjoy, because Paul Canyon 
was laid out by Hell's Bikers' manager/accomplice, Dick Douglas, who entered 
the ring and nailed him with a crowbar to cause a disqualification. Hell's 
Bikers are also lobbying hard for a match against the Wrecking Crew in some 
sort of hardcore situation at Survival of the Fittest... considering the waves 
that they've been making in VCW lately, they may get it.
       For their part, the Wrecking Crew are still standing strong on top of 
the VCW tag team division, defending the VCW World Tag Team Titles against the 
former champions, the team that they won the titles from at Blood and Thunder, 
the Manhunters. Every team in VCW currently has their sights set on winning the
titles away from the Wrecking Crew, but at this point, it's hard to picture 
that happening.
       David Wright Hubbard came to the ring tonight and had some strong 
threats for the Inquisition, after they savagely turned on him two weeks ago. 
Rex Richards, for some completely unknown reason, must have thought that he 
could get away with coming to the ring and telling David Wright Hubbard exactly
what he and the rest of the Inquisition thought of him... and the expected 
results followed shortly. A match broke out between them, and David Wright 
Hubbard manhandled Rex Richards before putting him through a table with a power
bomb to get a quick victory.
       Chris Champlain had some words for everyone in VCW near the beginning of
the show. Revealing himself to be even more twisted and depraved than anybody 
suspected, he went into great detail telling everyone how much he enjoyed 
injuring Rob Solomon, and how much he was looking forward to injuring someone 
else. He ended his speech with an open challenge, which Falcon accepted. The 
resulting, brutal Falls-Count-Anywhere Match finally ended when a failed 
attempt by Chris Champlain to put Falcon through a table ended in a victory for
Falcon... but it certainly wasn't an easy one. With his newly sadistic, 
aggressive approach to his matches, Chris Champlain is definitely a very 
dangerous opponent.
       Early in the show, Rex Richards and "Earl", a member of the VCW ring 
crew, were shown making a phone call under very suspicious circumstances. The 
more observant VCW fans saw what was happening... but everybody knew by the end
of the night just what that phone call was all about. After easily putting away
Rushmore, Gabriel Black revealed to everyone just what the nature of those 
phone calls were, as the Torturer was shown brutalizing Katherine, Richard 
Tobian's girlfriend, on the ViolenTron. While this may cause some VCW wrestlers
to think twice before crossing Gabriel Black, it also definitely ensures that 
Richard Tobian will be out for blood when he wrestles Gabriel Black at Survival
of the Fittest. 
       At next week's show, as the dust settles from the chaos today, it may 
become more clear where everybody stands going into Survival of the Fittest. 
The final matches of the first round of the tournament will take place, and 
many of VCW's top stars will be present, including Lance Errington, Marylin 
Silvera, Moy Lazzario, Devaccio Pola, and many more! Come on back and join us 
next week for VCW Monday Night Wrestling!!
