Low Blow Booking Podcast Episode 23 - Title Tournament Edition

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the Low Blow Booking  Podcast! Join Derek Cornett, Dave Hall, and Patrick Fenton as they take  on a very special tournament edition of the Low Blow Booking Podcast.  The three put together 4 tournaments, only using matches that happened  in real life, and using the individuals who won to move the tournament  forward. Let's run down the rules...

TAG TEAM TOURNAMENT  
- This was a 16 team tournament in which every tag team match  happened in real life and the next round match had to have happened.

INTERCONTINENTAL, WCW, AND WWE CHAMPIONSHIP
- For these three tournaments, the matches had to have been for the  title and the next round matches had to have happened and been title  matches.

This is without a doubt one of the most  creative and innovate ideas that the Low Blow Booking Podcast has put  together. Let us know what you think as you sit back and enjoy the Low  Blow Booking Podcast; Tournament Edition!
