--- BRACKET REVEAL ---
Here is the official bracket for our upcoming tournament The 500! We took PWI Pro Wrestling Illustrated's list of the top 500 wrestlers in the world and over the next several months we'll be pitting them head-to-head in a single-elimination tournament we'll simulate using Fire Pro Wrestling (series).
Kenny Omega, Roman Reigns, Bobby Lashley, Drew McIntyre, Kota Ibushi, Jon Moxley, Will Ospreay, Finn Balor, Shingo Takagi, Rich Swann, Cody Rhodes, and Randy Orton all receive first-round byes due to their ranking, but will one of them be the last wrestler standing? Or will we see someone like Big E, Darby Allin, Tetsuya Naito, or Karrion Kross swoop in and take it from them? How will lower-ranked wrestlers like Ryan Nemeth, Dillon McQueen, Athrun Amada, Swoggle, Charles Mason, Antonio Honda, Mr. Iguana, Robert Martyr, Kaia McKenna, and Lulu Pencil fare against the top stars in the industry?
Is Kenny vs. Roman inevitable? The only way to find out is to join us every week at https://www.twitch.tv/prowrestlingsimulated once the tournament begins to see who advances in the biggest competition in (virtual) wrestling history!
