Group A
Jack Benevolence
Adrien Specter
Keaton Saint
Smith Young
Diego de la Vega
Jacob Wright
-Torn between Specter & Saint as those qualifying with Benevolence. Wright will be the wildcard in the group.
GROUP B
Kurt Noble
Ja Gi Kyung-Moon
Johnny Knuckles
Scott DiBiase
Jason Rhodes
Seth Black
- Gone with the two guys who have been consistently strong in previous tournaments. DiBiases & Kyung-Moon are two guys who could easily go through as well though. Tough group.
GROUP C
MDK
Leander Apollo
Mark Mania
Alex Black
Jerry McClean
Kill Crazy
Another really tough group. A lot of writers I've seen do their thing in SCW & ET. Black & McClean could upset things, as could Crazy if can shake off the 'ring' rust.
GROUP D
CJ Gates
Michael Callahan
Marko Flins
Jade Wallace
Buck Dempsey
Legacy
- Ah, my own little group of Death. Where the hell did Legacy come from?! I've heard great things about Callahan so I expect he'll be the one to really change things up. I envision me finishing last, heh.
GROUP E
Jason Kash
Maverick Jones
Evan Envi
Dune
WTF
James Stall
- Don't really know too much about the folk in this group. The writer behind Stall I've known for a long time but anyone keeping an eye on CWC will know what he can do.
GROUP F
Insomnia
Dragon Demonico
Arkia Fisk
Legion
Lisa Lorian Lyon
Jimmy Helmsley
- An interesting group, I'm an SCW boy so obviously got a lotta love for 'Som, seeing him write great stuff every week, I'm not sure he has brought that form to the inter-feds in the past so I see that changing.
GROUP G
Doug E. Fresh
Blade
Scott Rage
Demarco Gurdex
Donovan Davenport
Gravedigger
- One half tournament regulars, the other unknowns and we all know there is always an unknown that come in and tear shit up. Could happen in this group. But I'm predicting two of the main stays will continue their tradition of doing awesome.
GROUP H
Johnny Rebel
Terry Marvin
Steve Stryker
Talon Wilkinson
Rotten Bastard
William Draconis
- Another tough group. The APW guys are, I would say, favourites for the group, but Nick is great writer, not seen what the new character is about but he is probably the one that can mix this group up.
GROUP I
Masaru Inoue
Sean Edmunds
Hannah Rickman
Rex Evans
Calvin Ingram
Carlisle Cain
- Another group with three names I know, and three I don't. Could be any of the top three in my opinion, I'm just going off of previous showings in the Experts here. The unknown variable could kick in again here though.
Final Four: Terry Marvin, Leander Apollo, Doug E Fresh, Jack Benevolence
Winner: Doug E Fresh
