Choose the Superstar VII

Choose the Superstar VII (often abbreviated to CTS VII) is the seventh game in the Choose the Superstar franchise. This game of CTS was held in 2016 and brought together 12 SCAW hopefuls from various forms of media in an 11 week competition to determine SCAW's next breakout star. The winner would be awarded with a one year contract with the promotion, where in order to stay past the one year, would have to win a championship. The "Special Rounds" of Entrance Week, Moves Week and Story Week would take place once again from Week 9 through to Week 11. This season would be won by Harley Quinn, who would become the first (and so far only) female winner of the game.
