It's just a joke based on them saying the team might change.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

IF someone was changed it's definitely Tien at this point. Dude has been getting hella ignored in Marketing and in universe. It won't happen though.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

They need to stop playing games with my feels. This tourny needs to start soon, or these announcements will kill me before it arrives.

Plot twist: Brolyko is actually Yurin, and will be on the U7 team instead of either Gohan or Piccolo.

They're probably just teasing us but if they do change someone then.... what the fuck? if ya'll make Boo go to sleep again or Gohan with his job I.will.flip! biggest BS they can bring is the mislead of Fem Broly and she actually being part of U7 (as the magazine was being playful with mentioning which universe she's from? 6 or 7)

Gohan getting replaced would destroy the fandom, especially for a bad reason. Even if it isn't a joke, I'm 100% sure it can't be him.

It's impossible at this point. He's been hyped up way too much and he's shown genuine interest in the tournament.

Tien is the only possible person to get replaced. He won't though, we're all reading too deep into this.

If Yurin is Fem Broly the I could see she and Tenshinhan sparring, Tenshinhan gets put out of comission and Goku feels that she is perfect for the U7 team. meaning Tenshinhan is out of the ToP.

Its either Tenshinhan or Buu will might likely be out of the U7 team.

Someone on /a/ is translating the article paragraph by paragraph. Here's that relevant bit Herms was talking about:
"Is Master Roshi strong or not?"
In the previews of the Universe Survival arc, characters that are supposed to be representatives of U7 are drawn. Apart from familiar faces like Goku, Gohan and Vegeta, it has become hot debate amongst fans to see Master Roshi. Master Roshi was once caled the strongest, but is now mostly retired. Although there was a scene where he fought the Freeza Army, there is no real achievement oustide of that.

Nevermind knowing whether or not Master Roshi can keep up with the power scaling or not, he's fighting simple questions like "Can he even fight now?" Sakurada says "Master Roshi is strong, there are techniques and strengths that are unique to him and Krillin, etc. Also, you can enjoy following each of the characters such as Gohan's restoration of his fighting capabilities. It was Toriyama's idea to use these members, but the combination of them is interesting. However, are all the characters drawn in the preview all there is to it... Well.. Look forwards to it!"

Oh it's just Super's usually ambiguity. I'd almost rather they said nothing then continue on like this.

Also, I think it's interesting that the producer points out that krillin and Roshi will do fine despite their power. No comment on Tien. Does this mean he really is stronger than Krillin or that he's going to job like his first name is Steve ?
What if it's both? Lol.

Maybe Roshi is disqualified because he can't fly? It's the only thing I could think of.

As said, if they don't want Trunks/Goten entering the only character they can bring in is Yamcha.

I won't even watch the tournament if they change the team. I simply will not accept such crap for any character.

Roshi being replaced is the only thing I'd accept and not be bothered with. He had his time to shine against Freeza's soldiers, I don't really need to see him more than that.
