This week we start breaking down the random wrestler tournament. Big names are all around in unique matchups. This week we have the breakdown of the East and West regions. Let's see who moves on in this contest.

It's tournament time her in the Basement, and we decided to throw a wrench into the action. This year's tournament will be randomly selected wrestlers with no parameters. That means guys from several generations and styles will face off against each other. You might have a tag team specialist from the 80's take on a current roster superstar or an up and coming independent talent take on a world champ from the Golden age of TV. The possibilities are endless. Enjoy this selection episode and come back in the next few episodes to see how the tournament unfolds.
