Gunslinger presents Ring of Victory!

[Gunslinger]

I was thinking the winner of the Pearce/Claudio qualifier would go on to win the whole thing. Claudio has a lot of untapped potential.

[jasonjaconetti]

Good tournament and I am kinda happy that Delirious won it. He is underrated and deserves a tittle shot.

[Gunslinger]

I was satisfied with the tournament once DDP and Steve Corino were eliminated. I would have preferred Claudio or Adam Pearce winning but Delirious was my third choice anyway.

[jasonjaconetti]

Yeah, but it worked well with Hero vs. Claudio. As for Pearce, everytime he seems poised to make a run he falls, so this fits his characater.
