Your BOLA lineups

[eastbay510]

Now that BOLA has been announced for the end of August who do you guys want to see in the tournament? Any new debuts? And who do you guys think is gonna come out as your winner... this is my lineup

1) Adam Cole
2) Roderick Strong
3) Eddie Edwards
4) Kyle O'Reilly
5) Michael Elgin
6) Rich Swann
7) Drake Younger
8) Johnny Gargano
9) AR Fox
10) Ricochet
11) Brian Cage
12) Kevin Steen
13) Davey Richards
14) Super Dragon (If he's healthy)

As far as debuts:

15) ACH: I think most people know who he is, he has been great in ROH, he will get over really quick in PWG.
16) Shane Hollister: Probally not everyone knows about him, but he is on a tear in AAW in the midwest. Had great matches with Davey, Jimmy Jacobs, Elgin, and just had a great fued with Sami Callihan. He also has a ton of charisma, I think he would also get over quick. In my humble opinion he is the best wrestler on the indys not in DGUSA, ROH, or PWG.

Both line-ups are very cool.

A returning Akira Tozawa would melt my brain :shock:

Armchair booking is always fun. Would love to see some change in the tourney where semi-finals are forced to go directly into the finals. 2 guys are double-dq'ed or ends in a no-contest, with the final 3 forced to do a 3-way match for the final. My personal choices are Roddy Strong, Ricochet and Kyle O'Reilly.

I'm assuming O'Reilly is getting the big push since the built-in storyline of two tag-team partners doing battle (O'Reilly vs. Cole) would be automatic, but I would love to see Roddy get his shot at the belt before the end of the year and win BOLA this year. Strong vs. Cole on the West Coast would be fantastic. I saw their two recent matches in Honor in the Heart of Texas and Best in the World 2013. Both fantastic matches.

I wouldn't mind Strong winning, even if it would be kind of out of nowhere. He hasn't won a PWG tournament in quite some time, and he's been in the BOLA finals twice without winning it.

PURE speculation but I thought it was worth mentioning.

PWG's twitter announced the 3 shows on twitter, Shortly there after Kevin Steen sent several tweets to Jack Evans demanding him to read his DM and reply.

For all we know it could be a video of a chimp sniffing its ass but I'm optimistic. Ricochet vs Jack Evans? HOLY SHIT.

Ricochet is 10 times the wrestler Evans is or ever was... he is one of the best in the world, why waste him on some glorified spot monkey?

ACH is the first official entrant. As someone who's seen him plenty of times in AIW, dude is SUPER talented, and will fit in with PWG perfectly

Because wrestling is fun and you shouldn't take it so serious?

[pwggrodd]

Hoping a few more surprising names turn up besides ACH, but I think this is a pretty likely line-up-
1.Adam Cole
2.Kevin Steen
3.Drake Younger
4.Roderick Strong
5.Eddie Edwards
6.Davey Richards
7.Kyle O'Reilly
8.Brian Cage
9.Michael Elgin
10.Ricochet
11.Rich Swann
12.AR Fox
13.Johnny Gargano
14.Chuck Taylor
15.ACH
16.Willie Mack
That last spot could be Willie, B-Boy, Jay Lethal, Trent Barreta, Paul London, another newcomer...possibilities, man, possibilities.
