Bushy. Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 A weekly 1 hour women's wrestling show is gonna feel so weird. What separates them from the rest of the roster like the cruiserweights? They work on the indies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil' Kazu Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 The tournament was originally scheduled for January, but moved back when WWE prioritized a U.K. territory and proposed television show getting off the ground due to ITV airing a wrestling product. Source: Wrestling Observer Newsletter But... but... William Regal was working on the tournament for 6 months, how can this be??? I like that idea more. Was more fun too. The UK tournament was more fun than the Cruiserweight Classic to you? I loved the CWC, still consider it one of the coolest things WWE has ever done, hyped for this tournament for that same reason.

LEGION Posted April 6, 2017 Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Sure, lol. C'mon. You're on this forum and didn't read the reports? The ideas were all pitched alongside the CWC. Aswell as a "Asian", "European" and "Australian" tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E#37 Posted April 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 Whatever it may be that caused it to be moved, if it is in fact moved. I'm glad it actually not happened in January, a lot more talent seems to be available now for this tournament compared to just a few months ago.

Future™ Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Sure, lol. C'mon. You're on this forum and didn't read the reports? The ideas were all pitched alongside the CWC. Aswell as a "Asian", "European" and "Australian" tournaments. Speaking of which, why dont we have an "International" tournaments altogether? hell, even throw in guys like Cesaro, Sheamus, Sami Zayn, Finn Balor, Aleister Black, Rusev, etc to make the whole tournament more appealing to casual fans. One could even suffer a "shocking defeat" to push other lesser known international star. The winner should become Intercontinental Champion, because imo thats what that title should represent, a "main title" for international superstars. they could later vacant the championship for a WWE championship match a la Aries.

I'm glad it actually not happened in January, a lot more talent seems to be available now for this tournament compared to just a few months ago. Also it was a two day tournament and that was easier to film then a 10 to 11 week tournament. So if they are making a women's show will they bring back old Women's Tag belts back from the 80's?

I agree completely. I didn't get into the UK tournament all that much, whereas I was super excited for the CWC, and I think a big part of that was the 1 hour a week setup. It was done incredibly well and I would hope the Womens tournament follows that skeleton (which it looks like it will). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I typed it like that, but I don't mean it that way. For this tournament, I think a 2 day is a better idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Vercetti Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Excuse if already noted "More Details Have Emerged About WWEs Upcoming Womens Tournament Danielle Matheson05.05.17 Via @WWE As reported by PWInsider, new details have apparently been revealed about WWEs much-anticipated womens tournament set for later this year. Though very little has officially been announced, more and more rumours are coming out as the focus is finally free to shift from the UK tournament to this one. Tourney filming will supposedly take place in July at Full Sail, just like the Cruiserweight Classic tapings. Much like the cruiserweights, WWE has promised a heavy international focus, with 17 countries being represented. Stardoms Kairi Hojo has already been scooped up by WWE, and Io Shirai has already had her tryout. Kimber Lee and Ruby Riot (née Heidi Lovelace) have already settled into their NXT contracts with the goal of being featured in the tournament as well. WWE is currently finishing up the background checks for the remaining women not already under contract. Much like the other tournaments WWE has run in the past year, the finale of the womens is planned to be a live special on the Network. PWInsider is saying it will take place on August 29th, though its not known how it will compete with the other Tuesday night programming, like SmackDown Live and 205 Live. While nothing is set in stone, we can safely say every tidbit of news has us staying Mojo Rawley-levels of hype." Source: UPROXX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDAWG Posted May 5, 2017 Report Share Posted May 5, 2017 Ruby Riot in the tournament would be surprising. Why? #DIY and Rich Swann were already on the NXT roster before they entered the CWC. None of them were anywhere near title contention when they entered the CWC. She may be the least likely of the four to walk out of Chicago as NXT Women's Champion, but she's in title contention.

Counting Lights Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 That's completely incorrect, DIY was feuding with Revival into TakeOver Toronto at the time of CWC. The prematch promo even talked about whether they'd be able to get over the CWC match for their title shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
