Everyone?
Well almost.
Normally we need to wait for the Championship games to find out who will be promoted, but with 4 WEPL teams biting the bullit at the end of this season, we are welcoming 8 new teams in total.
As well as the Conference Champions, we expect to be losing 1 Alpha and 3 Zeta teams.
So what names should we be getting to know???
In WEAAA#1 the final Four looks like this...

Alpha
(1) Dinas Mawddwy Red Bandits Vs London Minotaurs (2)
Both teams boast a squad containing several Level 35+ players, which while no indicator of build, when combined with their results seems to show they might just survive in WEPL.
London Minotaurs are a well managed outfit, and did well in the WE Tournament this season.
Dinas Mawddwy have looked to be the class act in that league all season.
These two teams meet in Game 1 of this season with Dinas winning easily, but thats a long time ago.
Zeta
(1) Berlin Ballers Vs A Team of Ice and Fire (2)
On paper this is the stronger half of the draw.
Ballers have been on fire for the last few seasons, and they are looking to rise all the way to the top.
But their squad looks to be very short of quality depth, and their lower level players will need near perfect builds to be competitive in WEPL.
Fire and Ice look to have the strength in depth required, but lack the starting calibre, and tactically, Ballers know what they are doing, so I just give them the edge in spite of lower levels.
Its a shame that two of the best teams are not in the final, with Grass Roots Divots and Lyon Dynasty both looking WEPL calibre already, but not able to progress into the Final 4.
Both will be candidates to gain promotion via restructuring, but both will have wanted to do it the traditional way.
