Here is the bracket for the Dusty Classic. Some of the matches will take place on 205 Live.

I’d have to assume MSK are the former Rascalz they’d signed from Impact.

Also I love that it’s a 16 team bracket again. First time since 2016.

That’s a lot of teams I don’t remotely care about. Hope for some NXT level tag-team bangers and a reason to care.

I am amazed they were able to coble together 16 teams at all considering how at deaths door the NXT tag division was just a few months ago.

The right side of the bracket is pretty easy to call with Cole and Strong have a ridiculously easy path to the semi finals likely meeting those grizzled old young men.

The otherside is more open I would have predicted Dain and Maverick to the semis but seems in the 2nd they are gonna face who we presume to be the debuting Rascalz..but to outst either team in the 2nd round seems strange.

I like GYV, but EVERRISE fluking their way to victory after victory would be hilarious and a more fun tournament story.

Yeah the tourament a big channel changer for me. Not enough teams I care about.

Also this is the 10th tourament across wrestling since September, I'm about touramented out.

Ever Rise seem like the second coming of the Rogeau brothers. (I’m probably making that connection due them being French and from Quebec Canada). As annoying as they seem to be they’re starting to grow on me a little.

There’s always a place in wrestling for guys willing to act the fool.

I know he’s loved but Cameron Grimes fits this to a T and that’s why I love him. #tothemoon

I can't wait until McKenzie finally gets fed up and just hits them both with her mic.

That's because McKenzie is a hater! how can she have so much hate in her heart for Canada's MOST Professional Tag Team?!

With the tank getting jealous and keeps trying to run over Lumis all by itself at every opportunity

Opening with Shotzi is always a good decision.
