"The arena seats 4000, and there is not a bad seat in the house. The bottom line is that this really looks like it has a chance at selling out -- we have already sold out of the VIP seating, and the $50 seats are really almost all gone as well!  This will be the best attended Submission Wrestling World Championships ever," concludes the spokesman.

add Rhadi Ferguson to that list

what about Eddie, Royler, Baret, and JJM? are they confirmed?

I thought I read that David Avellan got an invite too?

marcos avellan is moving down a spot and david is moving into his place

My perdictions:

Vieira, Garcia, Saulo, Roger, Pe De Pano, Lister.

Does this mean that David Avellan is not in? Also, was Earle been cleared of the charges? If so, good news.

We will be setting up there, please stop by and say hello

Almost every name mentioned DOES have an invite, we will be releasing the official names throughout the next 2 months. Keep in mind, 99% of what we know on here, most people wont know.

Also, Cameron is innocent until proven guilty for this tourney, so he will compete if he can...

No Jacare?????????????

Come on bro, you think we stoopid? Of course Jacare was invited!

I just read somewhere that Dennis "Superman" Hallman received his invitation. That is great news! Congratulations, Dennis.
