In the next several weeks, eight men will fight it out in a single elimination tournament to determine the first champion. You already know the first match, tonight newcomer Al Perez will take on veteran from Toucula, Mexico Tito Santana. That will get us off to a fast start, but who are the other six men? Here is the list, the Bossman, Vladimir Koloff, Bobby Duncum Jr., the Ultimate Warrior, and Dustin Rhodes. Any of these men would make a worthy champion, winter is heating up in the WWA.”
