Author's take
Last year, the final night of the WWE Cruiserweight Classic tournament showcased some epic high-flying action and also featured the crowning of the new WWE Cruiserweight Champion.
I hope this year's Mae Young Classic lives up to the hype and entertains the WWE Universe with some incredible women's wrestling!
