Here's to hoping we get a Tajiri vs. Super Crazy reunion match. Sounds unlikely, but neither of them are tied down to long-term deals and are free lancing. Both are in shape, and can still go and were my favorite part about the Cruiserweights, during it's heyday.

Should be flushed with European talent. Hell, Ospreay would've won if he didn't sign with NJPW.

The winner won't be a freelancer most likely.

What about Gargano? He's not really a freelancer or signed, just somewhere in-between.

I think this tournament will be used to launch La Sombra/Manny Andrade/whatever he's called to be honest.

Think they'll let the winner skip NXT if they aren't already on it?

No. This tournament will be a network exclusive so I don't see it having any major impact on the main roster product. It's a way for Triple H and WWE to get hardcore fans to sign up for the network. And a smart one

The prize hasn't really been specified yet, could've talked it out with Vince for a spot on the main roster. It's highly unlikely, but it'd be a nice incentive.

What would make it a whole lot more appealing is if the entire tourney consisted of outsourced talents, and that the winner get a contract. We know that the WWE would've already picked the guy going in, it'd be cool to see play out though.

Apparently Cedric had a tryout for it already, yikes. Talk about underwhelming.

All the info I have managed to gather is that it will be a sort of in ring Tough Enough (for the freelance talent) as well as a Network subscription bumper. There's no real talk about what is going to happen to the winner on the main roster but I guess it is going to be a yearly tournament ala king of the ring. Might be a cruiserweight title on the line, might be a trophy. Who knows?

Love the idea

It's all part of a plan to bring Hornswoggle back.

In all seriousness, I like this idea. More tournaments are fine by me.

The qualifiers are being held at EVOLVE.

Progress is holding qualifiers at their Chapter 29 show.
