A number of people have come up to talk to me about that lately and I am so glad that so many people have liked it. When I sat down and put the bracket together, I really felt like it would be a great way to build towards Dynamite making that huge move at the end of the year to TBS. I think it has only created more anticipation for the move. I am very excited about the semi-finals.

I think Thunder Rosa is going to have her hands full in the semi-final with Jade. I think she’s clearly the rookie of the year. I think she is definitely one of the favorites to potentially be the TBS Champion.”
