“Honor the past. Look to the future.”

Back in the month of April, during the WrestleMania 33 weekend, Stephanie McMahon, along with then-champions Bayley, Alexa Bliss and Asuka announced that this summer fans could look forward to seeing a 32 women tournament airing on the WWE Network.

Today, the EVP of talent and 14-Time World Champion, Triple H revealed the official name for the groundbreaking tournament – The WWE Mae Young Classic

The tournament is named after the late WWE Hall of Famer, Mae Young. Mae Young brought a lot of intensity (and entertaining moments) whenever she was on WWE television.

The Mae Young Classic takes place over two nights on July 13^th & 14^th at Full Sail University. Tickets for the tournament go on-sale this Friday May 26^th at 10am ET at NXTTickets.com.

As of now, no competitors have been announced.
