Zumbi has been replaced by Prince Mustafa Ali.

Heard of half of these guys. Damian Slater is from my hometown, great worker. Do keep an eye out on him.

I got Ibushi as a lock to win this.

And Tajiri looks alot better than when I last saw him in a new Japan six man....he was old man chubby a year or two ago.

I'm lookin' forward to this even though I don't think WWE can correctly book such an event. We should still get some classic encounters regardless.

Not sure what they can "book" for a tournament, making matches isn't booking.

That's why ROH sucks, they can't book for shit, they just have delirious make matches.
