WWE announced the following today:
WWE announces 32-competitor Women’s Tournament coming to WWE Network this summer
For the first time in WWE history, 32 of the top female competitors from around the world will participate in a tournament this summer on WWE Network.
The long-rumored tournament was confirmed today as part of “WWE Reimagined,” a presentation held at a business partner summit in Orlando, Fla., during WrestleMania Week.
Competitors from 17 countries are expected to participate in the tournament, underscoring the breadth and international diversity of women’s wrestling.
Raw Women’s Champion Bayley, SmackDown Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss and undefeated NXT Women’s Champion Asuka – all of whom are slated for title defenses this weekend – were on hand to break the big news with Paul "Triple H" Levesque, Executive Vice President, Talent, Live Events & Creative, and Stephanie McMahon, Chief Brand Officer. The tournament marks a new milestone for WWE’s ongoing Women’s Evolution.
"Building on our Women's division, it gives us great pleasure to share in announcing what's next for WWE," said Bayley. "For the first time ever, this summer, WWE will feature a Women's Tournament."
“I speak on behalf of all of us, not just the champions standing before you today, but the entire Women's division. It's truly an honor to be part of another significant movement in WWE history,” Bliss said.
After speaking to the audience in Japanese, Asuka said in English, "I am proud to be part of the Women's Evolution, representing Japan and WWE

If Cheerleader Melissa doesn't get in this and at least get a NXT contract out of it, then I will compose a very stern Tweet voicing my displeasure!!!

Both sets of Four Horsewomen were represented in each front row ramp section to watch this (Ronda Rousey, Marina Shafir, and Jessamyn Duke were supporting Baszler and Bayley, Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch were on the opposite end). Baszler used a choke to win a physical match. She was stepping towards Bayley, Charlotte, and Lynch before leaving. 
Ronda Rousey was seated front row for the first two nights of the tournament.

Shayna Bazler is fucking awesome. No sham. It is HOWEVER a SHAME, that WWE probably wouldn't have even given her a 2nd look if it hadn't been for her friendship with Ronda Rousey. But with or without her, Bazler deserves to be in the WWE.

According to squaredcirclesirens.com, Mae Young Classic finalist and former MMA fighter Shayna Baszler has signed with WWE. She worked some NXT live events prior to the finals and was also backstage at the most recent NXT tapings earlier this month. Well-deserved.

I was not impressed with Bazler at all. Her only good match was against Kairi Sane and that wasn't even Kairi's best match. I don't understand or get the hype for Baszler.
