8 Things We Want To See From The WWE Women's Tournament
8. Storytelling
The UK Championship Tournament was generally received better than the Cruiserweight Classic, and one of the main reasons behind this was the fact that it better incorporated storylines.
The CWC - although not entirely bereft of storylines (Gargano vs. Ciampa; Brian Kendrick's experience and cunning) - saw many matches suffer as a result of sparse background. It was billed as a legitimate sporting contest, whereas the UK Tournament had a decidedly more traditional wrestling feel. It came across as a far more well-rounded product, even if the sheer in-ring action of the CWC scaled greater heights.
I hope I'm not alone in wishing for the women's tournament to lean more towards its UK counterpart. Although women's wrestling on the main roster has thrived as a result of improved match quality, it owes just as match (and arguably more) to the charisma and diversity of wrestlers such as Sasha, Charlotte, and Becky.
