I liked what I saw of the CWC, but I find it weird to have cruiserweights back and have them billed as cruiserweights while you're trying to push Sami Zayn as an upper-card guy. The 205lbs weight limit does exclude some guys like Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler who would have been cruiserweights in the WCW days, but it's all a bit odd to me. We're supposed to buy Rollins fighting Kevin Owens, yet Rollins fighting Cedric Alexander is supposed to be some sort of cross-divisional fight?

The matches will be a lot of fun, and I'm hoping they find a way to differentiate themselves from the rest of the roster somehow -- adding a bit of isolated spice to things -- but it's just weird.

I'd rather have Johnny Gargano & Tommaso Ciampa remain premier tag team in NXT (which looks to still be the plan anyway given their CWC promo) and sign the dudes worth a damn from the tournament. That Cedric Alexander cut weight for this thing is just really weird to me.
