I've never seen any of his matches and heard about him only a couple times before. That interview was the first and only time I saw him doing anything and, God damn it, I'm a fan already. Seems like an awesome dude.

So with the Women's Tournament starting in May, I'm assuming the finals will be at Takeover Brooklyn instead of a standalone event like the CWC last year. So what is everyone thinking for the finals given what we know? I'm expecting one of Shirai/Hojo in the finals, but not both. The other spot is trickier given we don't know who exactly will be in the tournament. Maybe Candice?

So where do you guys actually watch all these Japanese indie shows? I know DDT has a streaming service but that's it.

I heard Meltz say a few days ago they're pushing Yoshi Hashi
Like.....why? He's got some lame monkey king gimmick (and this is coming from someone who loves journey to the west), has fine-but-nothing-special matches, doesn't same particularly charismatic and has the words "loose explosion" on his butt (presumably to remind other wrestlers not to go into the toilets at the same time as him without a gas mask).
Is there some great match he had that I missed or something?

Because, while he's never going to be more than a mid-card guy, he's shown steady improvement over the past few years and the crowd have got solidly behind him. But, yeah. Sure. Memes.

I would say Candice LaRae would at least get very far, if not making it to the finals altogether.
I wonder what would be the prize though. The CWC and the UK tournaments resulted in the crowning of a new belt. Would it be an automatic title shot for the NXT Women's Championship?

Billing wrestler's heights as being way taller than they are is so ridiculous. Makes going to shows feel really jarring.

Was there an official announcement for the Women's Tournament?
I remember people talking about it before but I could never find anything on the WWE site
Which is weird because they wouldn't not pat themselves on the back for giving women a chance

Big Cass is exactly seven foot tall! It can't be taught.

vs Naito, Elgin, Omega & Shibata in the G1, vs Omega at Destruction in Hiroshima, plus Goto & Ishii vs Okada & YOSHI from the tag league last year.
There's no way anyone could watch a match of YOSHI's from 2012-2013, then watch any of the matches listed above and not see a marked improvement. You'd have to be wilfully ignorant, the worst kind of ignorant.

They've wanted to do one for a while. It was their first idea after the CWC worked out. It was going to happen January-March, but they moved the U.K. Tournament to that spot instead because of the ITV stuff.
The current plan is to start in mid-May according to Meltzer.
Might just be a trophy like the Dusty Classic.
And yeah, if Candice is in it, there's no possible way she doesn't at least make the final four. And I see no reason why they would keep her out.

So Meltzer talked about the Paige stuff and shifted it to Hogan somehow. He completely ignores the racist stuff as the reason WWE is staying away from Hogan and focused on the sex tape as the main reason.

It's already known you like bad wrestlers. Just look at your love of Okada and Zandig!
Honestly its a messy situation for what should or shouldn't be done.

No he's not. It has nothing to do with the sex part of it.
Meltzer is saying that if WWE is drawing a line in the sand with Paige by punishing her, then they are sending a message that "it doesn't matter if it was a private video because everyone saw it".
They cannot in the same month or so span punish one person for that and then bring Hogan back under the opposite pretense. At least not so publicly as they would have to in this scenario.
