NWA Empowerrr will be headlined by the NWA Women's Cup Invitational, which features 10 women vying for a shot at the NWA Women's Title the following night at NWA 73.
While there has been some confusion among fans as to whether the Invitational was a battle royal or a tournament, Mickie James took to social media to clear up the confusion and state the rules.
The Invitational will work similarly to the Royal Rumble with staggered entrances every two minutes. Eliminations occur via pinfall and submission. The order will be determined by Mickie, Madusa, Gail Kim, and Jazz.
Rules of the 1st EVER @nwa #WomensInvitational are simple.
