Is there enough to do this without going into the main roster (not that I would object to it)

It's got my interest so I'm hoping to see some good matches at the very, very least.

Anyone know what's up with Aliyah right now and where Vanessa Borne's been? Could they reunite their team just for this tournament?

Did that new overloard debut yet? Maybe they'll save that for later and not the classic then

The winners of the Women's Dusty Classic should be the #1 Contenders for the Women's Tag Team Titles, since it is supposed to be defended on NXT too. They could challenge for them at the NXT show on Mania weekend.

I am really surprised no one has signed up Solo Darling so would love to see her get a shot in this. I mean, she already has an established team with Willow Nightingale as The Bird and the Bee. Yeah, I doubt that or Team Sea Stars would be happening. They'll likely fill up the remaining spots with people in the warehouse like whatever they are calling Brandi Lauren now.

They should have called it the Sweet Sapphire Classic. Brown Sugar (V1 voice) More like Brown Sauce!

Wasn’t there talk of a Melina return to join the Robert Stone Brand?

Well, here's one team we shouldn't expect to see: (Skyler Story is what they're calling Brandi Lauren now, I guess)

We have brackets for the Women’s Dusty:
Left
The Way (Candice LeRae/Indi Hartwell) Gigi Dolin/Cora Jade (no idea who these two are)
Shotzi Blackheart/Ember Moon Marina Shafir/Zoey Stark (or this one... What’s happened to Duke?)
- - -
Right
Mercedes Martinez/Toni Storm Kacy Catanzaro/Kayden Carter
Aliyah/Jessi Kamea Dakota Kai/Raquel Gonzalez

Dolin and Jade are actually 2018 Mae Classic entrant Priscilla Kelly and former AEW Dark regular Elayna Black, apparently. Zoey Stark is the former Lacey Ryan. All three are properly signed going forward.

You know if you bring in people who've been elsewhere and use those names, people might be more excited about their matches when you use them.

I mean, of course the star power falls off the cliff once you get past all the people who are regularly on TV. We’ve raved about the work of Shirai, Ripley, LeRae, Kai, Gonzalez, Storm, Martinez, Moon, Blackheart and Nox for months... But that’s still only 10 people, and then you take out Shirai, Ripley and Nox who aren’t in it, that’s more than half a tourney you have to pluck from the PC (which I greatly prefer them doing rather than reinforcements from the main roster). And a four-team tournament would barely even be one.

No Duke? That's surprising. Same with no Brandi Lauren.

Hasn’t Duke, like, not improved at all since signing? Doesn’t help that they haven’t really had a chance to use the PC much since the pandemic started.
