Lowrance, “With me are the Von Erichs. Gentlemen, you were successful tonight, but there are challenges ahead.”
Kevin, “That’s right, Marc. None of us have titles right now and that’s not right. We are looking at all the possibilities Kerry and I would love to get a shot at Hernandez. He has both singles titles, and he’s not the kind of guy we want to represent Texas, or World Class.”
Lowrance, “That leads me to the World Six Man Titles. The Canadian team beat the Freebirds and there is talk that they are coming to World Class. I know you three would like to win back those titles.”
