According to PWInsider.com, most of the 32 WWE Cruiserweight Classic participants have arrived in Orlando for the tapings which begin this Thursday night.

Some of the talents are also currently undergoing blood tests and physicals this week, and WWE has reportedly brought in some extra talents in case talents are not cleared to compete due to medial testing issues.

The report adds that the 205 lb. weight limit for the tournament is being enforced and a very sport-like presentation for the tournament is expected.
