I mean how can you have a tournament to crown a champion and not include Wyatt in there and for that matter Taker given the whole event is being billed as his 25th anniversary?
I for one wouldn't mind seeing Taker (or Sting) lifting the belt come the end of the night. Sure it would make no fucking sense given the beating he just took from Lesnar but didn't Austin win the belt off The Rock after a beating from Triple H at the previous PPV?
I think the whole event should be tournament matches and the obligatory WWE title match.
I for one would tune into that from start to finish with intrigue as opposed to just playing it in the background and tuning in as and when my main match is on.

Your average Network Special has 7-8 matches.
So that would mean an 8 person tournament if it was only tournament matches. They did a 14 person tourny back in 98, but that was in the era of 4 minute matches. Don't see that today.
My guess is WWE will start with 8 guys on RAW, but have the Final 4 on the Network Special. That allows them to have other matches like a tag title match, a Divas title match, and whatever they had planned for the Wyatts to make it a more compete show. I guess they could always make it a 4 hour show. But don't know if that's possible with such short notice.
