For whatever it's worth (tier jump?) Mike Macch seems to be a well liked dude as well

In college he was as well.

When he transitions to full-time coaching, he will be well sought-out.

DT vs Zahid best of three, DT vs PD3, DT vs Hidlay, This is so exciting as a wrestling fan

[Truzzcat]

We could in fact get DT vs Sadulaev... what a time to be alive.

What if Marsteller goes 92 KG?  He gets the 1 seed, right?  He beat Hidlay at OTT, albeit at 86 KG.

If that happens and Mirasola somehow gets slotted above Downey, we could see Downey - Marsteller in the QF.

I think Hidlay was 3rd on the ladder, though?  (Brooks, DT, Hoagie)

Does that count for more than head to head?

Not if the H2H happened a few months ago.  Who did Marsteller lose to that would warrant him being placed below Thicclay?  Dieringer?  He isn't in this bracket.

Marsteller > Thicclay > Dieringer > Marsteller

If you remove Dieringer there is no loop.  It is only Marsteller > Thicclay

Aside for their results at 86 KG, neither have recent results at 92 KG that would matter.  Thicclay wrestled 92 KG at the 2021 WTT, but his matches were all against guys who aren't wrestling anymore.

I decided to quote again rather than 'edit' my last post, but I could completely understand/see if they considered ladder as a priority.
