Match observations: 

       Tonight, less than two weeks away from Survival of the Fittest, things 
are really heating up and getting personal, especially in the main event scene.
All across the face of VCW, wrestlers appear to be beginning new rivalries, 
rekindling old rivalries, or just adding more heat to existing fires, even from
the beginning of the show.
       When the Ontario Color Show set their sights on the VCW World Tag Team 
Titles a few weeks ago, it was expected that one of the teams of VCW would rise
up to get in their way. Tonight, the Manhunters, the former VCW World Tag Team 
Champions, took exception to the Ontario Color Show's intentions. Their 
unofficial spokesman, Rex Richards, stated that as the former champions, the 
Manhunters should get another title shot before the Ontario Color Show. That 
point is debatable, since the Manhunters just lost a rematch to the Wrecking 
Crew last week, but it hasn't stopped the match from being signed; the Ontario 
Color Show will meet the Manhunters at Survival of the Fittest.
       Lance Errington, still in the tournament, plans to settle his long-
standing grudges against Falcon as he wins the tournament, by going through 
Devaccio Pola to get to Falcon. Going through Devaccio Pola is never easy, but 
it may help Lance Errington that the VCW Television Champion seems more intent 
on avenging the injury of his friend, Rob Solomon, at the hands of Chris 
Champlain than winning the Survival of the Fittest tournament. 
       Lance Errington's fellow Golden Society member Dean Sanders, who is out 
of the tournament after losing to Devaccio Pola, also decided to rekindle an 
old challenge by extending an invitation to Tim Bell for a two-out-of-three 
falls match at Survival of the Fittest. Though the Golden Society and the 
Technicians have recently been in bitter competition to prove which is the 
better team, this rivalry goes back even further, when Dean Sanders and Tim 
Bell had a series of very personal matches shortly after Wrestlewar.
       Virginia has more than the Torturer to worry about now... after his 
shocking attack on Johnny Smiles last week, Marty Jannetty seemed dedicated to 
making her life miserable as well tonight. Despite Virginia's impressive 
strength and wrestling skill, Marty's vastly superior ring experience proved to
be the difference maker tonight, when he countered the Spinebuster into a 
Rocker Dropper for the victory.
       Of course, Troy Black and the Torturer have nothing but hatred for each 
other... and it should come as no surprise that they were both delighted to 
beat the hell out of each other for twenty straight minutes. Finally, Troy 
Black was able to somehow overcome his much larger opponent, putting him away 
with the Black Dagger and advancing in the Survival of the Fittest tournament.
       Though Troy Black went through twenty minutes of hell to earn his place 
in the second round of the Survival of the Fittest Tournament, Marylin Silvera 
had a much easier time defeating Haigeikobai, who was randomly chosen to 
replace Johnny Smiles. Due to the results of these last two first round 
matches, the tournament brackets now look like this:

The second round matches, consisting of Lance Errington versus Devaccio Pola, 
Jacob Idol against Neytron DelArmeggio, and Troy Black against Marylin Silvera,
will take place on next week's installment of VCW Monday Night Wrestling.
       "Stone Cold" Moy Lazzario isn't quite the toughest S-O-B in Violent 
Championship Wrestling, but he did give Devaccio Pola a run for his money in a 
Television Title defense tonight. Moy Lazzario is expected to face former 
Inquisition member David Wright Hubbard at Survival of the Fittest, while 
Devaccio Pola will face Chris Champlain in a Hardcore Cage match, in addition 
to a part in the Survival of the Fittest tournament if he defeats Lance 
Errington next week.
       Tonight we saw more of the same from Gabriel Black... he is overflowing 
with confidence in his ability to defeat Richard Tobian, and doesn't mind 
telling everybody. There is definitely a lot of credibility to his claims, as 
he led the Manhunters to a victory over Liberation X tonight in the six man tag
team match main event. But he'd be a fool to look past Richard Tobian, 
considering the borderline insane mental state that Richard Tobian is in right 
now. Gabriel Black may be facing more than threats to his title reign at 
Survival of the Fittest... the way Richard Tobian is talking, he's facing 
threats to his physical health as well.
       Next week's show will determine the final four participants in the 
Survival of the Fittest tournament. Lance Errington will face Devaccio Pola, 
Jacob Idol will take on Neytron DelArmeggio, and Troy Black will wrestle 
Marylin Silvera, for the priviledge of advancing to the semi-finals of the 
Survival of the Fittest tournament. Also, we're expected to hear comments from 
Johnny Smiles, and many of VCW's top stars will be present, as we head in to 
Survival of the Fittest. Don't miss a minute of the great action from Violent 
Championship Wrestling!!
