Watch out for Alexy II of Moscow! He is classed in the bottom eight but he’s a tough, doughty fighter who is sure to advance in this series. Look for the Dalai Lama to make a quick exit after the second round, no matter who he ends up fighting.

The Final Four will meet in a neutral, non-religious place (I’m thinking Massachusetts or wherever the ECUSA is meeting) to battle for ownership of six billion souls!
