Powell’s POV: The tournament starts September 19 and wraps up October 18. It was pushed back due to the pandemic. The lineup is strong and it will be great to see some of the international talent return for the tournament. The G1 is a round robin style tournament, meaning the wrestlers will have one match with everyone in their respective block.
