Next week, “The Cruiserweight Classic” will finally begin airing after WWE has hyped up the series for many months. After last night, we know the full bracket, so the anticipation is at an apex.
It’s going to be surreal to see spectacular talents like Zack Sabre Jr. and Kota Ibushi wrestle under the WWE umbrella, but it’s also going to be wonderful to see a lot of unknown talent share the same stage.
According to a report from DailyWrestlingNews.com, there is a very strict weight limit on the competitors for the “Cruiserweight Classic.” WWE’s 205 pounds weight limit for the tournament is said to be legitimate.
Apparently, every wrestler who is competing in the first round of the tournament had to make weight, or they were immediately cut from the tournament.
It’s also important for competitors to keep that weight for the entire tournament because anyone who comes back for Round Two will be subject to another round of weigh-ins before the next set of matches.
The first round of match-ups are going to be so fun because it’ll be the introduction of so many wrestling styles clashing firsthand. That’s going to be an intense and extremely entertaining sight to see in the ring from so many different competitors.
Who do you think will make the final four of the tournament?
