West Coast Stuntin' in the Tournament for Tomorrow

Two of the final three names for the Tournament for Tomorrow have been announced. The third was to be revealed last night, but apparently, that prospective entrant bailed at the last minute. The two who will be in the tournament are "The Product" David Starr and Candice LeRae. Even though I called Starr's entry into the tournament, I don't know much about him except for the name and his proclivity to be booked on Beyond's shows.

LeRae, however, is pretty well-known to anyone who's been following Pro Wrestling Guerrilla for the last four years or so. Right now, she's ensconced in the main PWG feud, teaming with Joey Ryan, Drake Younger, and Kyle O'Reilly to take on the chimera of superkicks, Mount Rushmore (The Young Bucks, Adam Cole, Kevin Steen). She'll get a respite during Tournament for Tomorrow weekend, although she may run into old PWG sparring partner Christina von Eerie during the proceedings.

So now, the public must await with baited breath the 16th and final entrant into the tourney. If I were a betting man now, I would probably take my chips off Nicholas Kaye and maybe put them all in on a somewhat bigger name who still might fit into a tournament for up-and-comers. Drake Younger? Willie Mack? Someone from the Submission Squad? Tim Donst? Freight Train? A BEAR? Either way, whomever Denver Colorado (the man, not the place!) selects will certainly get the benefit of the doubt from yours truly. The lineup is stacked already anyway.
