Third Time’s the Charm​

 

[Melbourne Made]

Crowning the Inaugural PPW World Champion​

It was announced that the first ever PPW G1 Climax tournament would be the way that the inaugural PPW World Champion would be crowned.

It would have thirty two participants and be split up into six blocks represented by either A, B, C or D and each of the ten wrestlers in said blocks would face the nine other members of their respective blocks.

Then the final night of the tournament would see the wrestlers with the most points in each group face off in the final. Then the last two men from all four blocks would face each other and the winner of that match will be the PPW World Champion. 2 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and no points if the match ends by way of DQ or Count Out.
