Card Overview:

In no doubt what will be called a huge upset; "Big Stevie Cool" Stevie Richards has captured the PWW Cruiserweight Title. Not only that but he pinned the current US Champ: Eddie Guerrero in the quarter finals. Not even being put through a table by Sabu in the semi-finals could stop the leader of the "blue World order."

But let's not discount the performance of Brad Armstrong. The former WCW Lightheavyweight Champion proved he still has what it takes to hang with the best of them.

Next week: Beach Blast 7/25/97

A tournament to crown a new PWW Television Champion will begin, as 16 first round matches will take place.

plus :
Stevie Richards will defend the title against Brad Armstrong
For the US Title: Eddie Guerrero vs Raven
World Tag Team Title Match: The Road Warriors vs The Natural Disasters
For the PWW World Heavyweight Title: Bret Hart vs Shawn Michaels
