IWA.Com:
Get ready wrestling fans because the month of August just got hotter! Because we are inviting 32 of the IWA's best tag teams to compete in a single elimination tournament simply called..... The Open!
A 4 week tournament with a huge opportunity for the winning team as they will earn the right to face the IWA World tag team champions at Violence of the Lambs in October!
(Editors note: First round matches determined once all 32 teams enter via random draw. We will vote on each match to see what teams advance. If for any reason, someone does not vote and there is a tie, both teams will be eliminated)
