Dan Williams Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Didn't Takaiwa actually take part in the 16 carat?? I'm sure he did in the year they did that strange thing where there were 4 wrestlers from 4 regions in some kind of blocks. Also last year 2 of the best matches involved non-tournament guys so who knows what we will get this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightningxlock Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Oh yeh, I think he did actually haha. I thought he was in the 4 way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Williams Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Our first of 3 names is NOAH's Ricky Marvin!! pretty cool name be good to see what he can do, possibly against someone like Emil Sitoci (not sure whether wXw have ran this match before).

cobystag Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Excellent name there. Marvin vs Generico or Zack would be an immense first round match. Â Funny how over a year ago the confusion in whether Marvin was in 16 Carat or the up-coming NOAH shows, he finally ends up in a 16 Carat tourny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightningxlock Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 Be even better if wXw booked him with last year in mind. Well, im happy with Marvin as I was last year and thankfully he's actually in it this time! Roll on announcement number 2 lads... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evolution4life Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Tommy End? Bitter disapointment, Im starting to wonder if this years tournament is actually going to have any big "wow" names. Ricky Marvin is certainly a nice addition though but looking at this years line up compared to last years they seem leagues apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Williams Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Tommy is great imo, really pleased to see him in it again this year, him and Dante have had a great year as a tag team and seem to have impressed over in Japan too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Williams Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 So Drake Younger is todays name and have to say I am really dissapointed by this announcement. Never really been into Drake, this tournament really needs 2 really good names for me now. Super Dragon looks in quite good shape again perhaps its time for him to come back.

cobystag Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 With only 5 names left to go this could end up being a disappointing line up  I do like Drake Younger, but he's not an "Announce over the special Xmas period" name. They started off with the best in Marvin at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightningxlock Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 I do agree with you guys and when you factor in that the last 5 guys wont all be 'holy shit' standard names, it's abit worrying. I think the lack of Japanese talent upto now is one of the problems, though Finlay was decent little mark out moment for me. Â That being said, im buzzing about Marvin, im a big fan of Drake and Tommy End is always dependable (just dont think he was the right choice for xmas day). That and the fact that 16 Carat is always good. It may not be star studded upto now but pretty much every guy in the tourney is more than capable with having a quality match with any of the others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightningxlock Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 CZW's Jonathan Gresham added to the alternate 4 way match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobystag Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I do wonder if ROH's Anniversary show being the same weekend as this has thrown a spanner in the works as it pretty much rules out a lot of the big ROH (and even PWG) names. Â They got lucky booking Generico well before the Anniversary show was finalized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightningxlock Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Ohh shit, did not know that! Hmm, guess thats gonna' rule out Steen then  Here's another entrant:  AR Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
