What the competition double elimination?
I can't remember. The announcer should've reminded me some more
sharePlease, everyone! Try to wrap your heads around this very important plot device. This is a DOUBLE elimination competition: if you lose TWICE, you're out! That means in the event that the main character loses, he will then be able to return for the final bout! That is, unless you've not suffered a loss by the last match... then it goes back to being a single elimination competition.
shareI remember double elimination out of town tournaments when I played sports as a kid.
So that's a thing, it's not just for the movies.
