Thursday will be six days since the last MYC talent announcement. I know a lot of background information about the MYC. The screening process has been OTT and outside talent has been nth guessed WAY too much but I've still have faith in the tournament field. I am less idealistic than say a month ago. There's people who would be in my realistic 32 who ain't.

RealFoxy posted:I know a couple Joshi who were contacted but either turned it down or couldn't make it too, which is disappointing. There's always room for surprises like the CWC with mediocre or unknowns putting out great matches but I don't think it's going to have the starpower that the CWC did. I genuinely don't anything Asian participant wise besides Hojo. Just expect Shayna Baszler, Nicole Matthews, Deonna Purrazzo, Rachael "Evers" Ellering, Candice LeRae, Mia Yim and Kay Lee Rey.

Gaz-L posted:How is Baszler? I'm surprised they'd be willing to bring someone so relatively new, even with the minor notoriety she has via Ronda. For her level great I guess. Get's major plus points for her attitude in terms of willingness to learn and for being a major positive locker room morale wise. Meltzer reported she was the most recommended NXT tryoutee in recent memory. She's friendly with the Bellas and Nattie. I believe she would be signed if not for her age (36). There was a big storyline pitch late last year for her to work a 3 month feud with Becky Lynch.

DarkstarIV posted:As for the results of the MYC, I've talked about it before, but I would say the two names I could see winning (or rather, should win) are Toni Storm or Kairi Hojo. Maybe Candice LaRae, but I don't know about that too much. Why I think Mia Yim will win. It is always dodgy/cynical to talk in these terms but she ticks the ethnicity box, speaks English, has a human interest story, earned experience on the indies and has TV experience via TNA. I am very high on Yim personally. Can carry a pure rookie while can offer a NXT Takeover match wrestling high level wrestlers. Her biggest weakest is promos.

Ruby Riot overnight posted a picture in Florida with some of the NXT girls and Kay Lee Ray and Candice. In the NXT thread this week those were the next two indie names I expected to be announced next.

Evie/Dakota is a El Generico level babyface. She tried with Billie and Peyton but WWE didn't pick her up. The likes of Ricochet not being signed is rightfully cited as one of NXT's bigger mistakes but Evie being signed then would have greatly helped with the post-Bayley hangover NXT has experienced.

Looks like the MYC will have a title belt: I guess it will ape the UK Championship. A weekly TV show and periodic title defenses on friendly indie promotion's shows.

Bryan Alvarez said on WOL there's 5 slots vacant in the MYC. People are meant to report to Orlando on Monday. In WWE's defence I will say I do know of one major injury to a well known name.

Super No Vacancy posted:nixon tore her acl this tourney is gonna suck rear end lol Nixon's last few matches on the indies were something I had never seen before from a signed talent. Shooting star presses to the floor and stuff. Her shoulder is very bad too. I hope she isn't physically breaking down already.

quote:Another name we can confirm is undergoing medical testing is Deonna Purrazzo. http://squaredcirclesirens.com/possible-mae-young-classic-name-2/ Used to think I was biased toward Deonna and I am likely still am due to stumbling upon her matches at an early stage, following her rapid improvement and getting to know her generally. But then as time went on she has gotten strong notices by fans, promoters and other wrestlers. The amount and scope of Wrestling people who have praised her or follow her on social media is really cool. Her popularity and how good of a wrestler she is probably better within the industry than with fans I hope the MYC changes that. Also stops her being typecast as enhancement talent.

Expect the choice of alternates and the first round losers to be pretty controversial. Doesn't seem to be as well judged as the CWC IMO.

https://twitter.com/MaeYoungClassic/status/885139865125433344 UK wise Kay Lee Ray is almost underrated with all the attention Toni Storm gets these days but she's among the elite Wrestlers in the World.

Nicole Matthews: https://twitter.com/Hustler2754/status/885516475401949185 Have a lot of respect for Nicole. She's kind of like the female Chuck Taylor character wise. Sadly she's more or less exiled up in Vancouver. A very expense plane ticket for US promoters. Hope this raises her profile. rovert fucked around with this message at 16:16 on Jul 13, 2017 |

Wish there was an easy answer re:spoilers but the release schedule is such a farce my modern standards. Bracketology on August 20th. First four episodes on August 28th. Last four episodes on September 4th. Finals live after SD in Vegas on September 12th.

quote:The atmosphere was said to be really good last night at the Mae Young Classic, which comes down to the final two with 14 matches tonight. The talk going in was 5-10 contracts would be offered and you'll probably get a good idea of some of them based on who makes the final four. Unlike the cruiserweight tournament where they had figured everyone they liked would sign and that didn't happen, there is no avenue for the women to make big money in wrestling outside of WWE like there is for men, so it would be a surprise for anyone offered a deal to turn it down. http://www.f4wonline.com/daily-updates/daily-update-mayweather-vs-mcgregor-mae-young-classic-g1-239196
