That was pretty much a layup. She is involved in everything. |

So I was watching a review of GBOF with footage and noticed something curious which I am surprised wasn't talked about much on here.
I'm pretty sure Jordynne Grace was in the segment with Braun fleeing the ambulance wreck. Anyone happen to hear anything about her being an entrant or was that probably one of those "come by and play a role so that we may consider you for something later on" things?

Just thought someone might have heard something substantial in the last couple of days. |

I think the fact there is so many talents still to have their medicals and to be confirmed just further cements my point from earlier that this tournament's organisation has been a mess especially for the last few weeks when stuff was coming out from everyone but WWE. It does really seem that for as much time went into the CWC tournament, with this one and the UK one they just threw them together last minute with no real forethought or planning. |

In fairness, we didn't know what the prize for the Cruiserweight Classic was until right before the final match when HHH brought out the belt. Yeah, I'll give them that because we pretty much kind of expected a trophy so I'll recede that. The rumours of another belt are ridiculous, though. I don't know if they're rumors rather than wishes The Women NEED a mid card, or preferably tag titles |

I don't know if they're rumors rather than wishes The Women NEED a mid card, or preferably tag titles First they need a sustainable roster size. There are three divisions and none of them have enough people to compete for one belt, much less multiple. Which makes it completely insane that there are rumors they're doing a women's Rumble next year. |

I mean Smackdown had a Money in the Bank... and it consisted everyone in the division minus teh champion and a woman making her smackdown ring debut.... |

I mean Smackdown had a Money in the Bank... and it consisted everyone in the division minus teh champion and a woman making her smackdown ring debut.... It also had Maria's debut and as the "breadwinner" to Mr. Kanellis-- it really seemed like everybody found their own way to shine in the SDLive Womens division at MITB (which deservedly heightened the Ellsworth Male Denial of Woman's Agency-- feminist term fyi-- to close the ppv) But perfect example of the "wish" was MITB. While Naomi handled a Championship feud, the other 5+ women needed something to do. A historic Women's Ladder match luckily accommodates everyone left outside the title picture on the roster. ... but normally Tamina, Nattie, even Becky would be riding the bench on a ppv Having tag titles gives 4 of those women Superstars guaranteed ppv slots |

Ladder match luckily accommodates everyobe on the roster, but normally Tamina, Nattie, even Becky would be riding the bench on a ppv Having tag titles gives 4 of those women Superstars guaranteed ppc slots But there are no tag teams... and there is not enough people to have a sufficient tag division even if they made one there are 7 wrestlers on Smackdown and 1 valet. take away the champion and her challenger that's 5. a tag match uses 4... so it'd be a division of 2 teams. |

I wouldn't do secondary women's belts or women's tag belts... Just put a few women from this tournament on RAW and SmackDown each, and that would do wonders for match and feud variety. A division of seven women isn't sustainable. Double that, and it's much more so.

Oh I'd definitely imagine the women from the MYTourney would randomly team up to get TV time against the Bayley/Sasha's, or the Becky/Charlotte's, or the Tamina/Lana's, or the Nia/Alexa's, or the Dana/Emma, PEYTON/BILLIE, hell Asuka/Nikki is a good team.
Nikki/Brie is always on the table as the "franchise tag team" if Brie wants to comeback.
The main thing is more women get guaranteed TV time and hyped angles the crowd will care about. Carmella as MITB holder is a taste of this and she is solid gold as a test midcard champ

Layla is still one of my faves. |

Lita & Madusa were on The Ross Report with JR discussing the talent, there is apparently up to 50 names to narrow down.
