CreeDo:
If you've been following this historically, this is just another in the long series of "in yo' face" moves by Dragon Promotions against the WPA. Right now -- just as it is the case in other sports -- there is a single world-sanctioning committee that gets to decide what makes an event a "world" event. For pool, that's the WPA.
However, for whatever reason, Dragon Promotions has decided to give the finger (or flick their hand outwards from under their chin) at the WPA, and is calling the 14.1 event a "World" event, even though the winners will never be recognized by the WPA, and will never be recorded in any record books.
Call it what you will, but that's what this is about.

Very true, Sean. In fact, CW has gone as far as to makeup his own Hall of Fame. Discarding all that are actually in the real one. My guess is that at some point he will coerce his "stable" to get him voted into it. It's the only way he would get in one, is to make up his own.
