if you didn't see it, they basically showed an 8-man tournament for the 55 kilo weight class (the first round was just a recap, then they showed the semi-finals). i guess that they'll do this for all the weight classes, then have the finals at the end of the season.
i liked the rule changes alot. it's mostly freestyle (which i like), with a couple of twists.
whether or not there's any future for it - who knows? it's hard for me to imagine how this will translate into mainstream programming, but maybe there's a place for it (i've got to think that people would watch wrestling over darts or pool).
........oh, and put a singlet on for chrissakes!
