Whats your Snyder Feeling?

[Hammerlock3]

Anyone else feel like he's hit a ceiling and its gonna take something really special to get him through it? He wrestles hard, looks pretty stiff in many positions (I would blame NLWC for this if I was treating them like people treat Iowa), seems like he's been pretty well figured out. The good news for him is that weight is empty (friendly reminder he wrestled Isaac Trumble to make the olympic team), but is Snyder gonna win worlds again?

You can never rule out him winning another world title, but I doubt we'll see Kyle win any more golds at Worlds or the Olympics.

He will only win if the big dawgs are banned from competing imo.

He is too one dimensional with his attacks from neutral. 

He has a weak par tarre game. He has no gut wrench or lace series. 

He really only focused on freestyle in his entire career.  Having very little variations and improvements in his game after winning the Olympics and then 2 straight world titles.

He is an all time US great who I thought would surpass Burroughs.

Brooks will most likely beat him for the 97 kg spot. 

Sad to see really.

I don’t know what to think about SnyderMan, I think he has to really change things up. Start bringing in some top talent around the world.

He competes a lot.

I don't hold losses against wrestlers unless it's an important tournament. 

Worlds last year proved that 86 isn't " super deep" like all its defenders insisted. Yazdani and Taylor are not meta humans who could tech everyone in the world but themselves.

I don't think thats his issue, its not like he's inexperienced. Its more like his style has become a limiting factor, he can't surprise anyone anymore.

who are you quoting, this feels like a straw man....

Maybe he could use a change of scenery... switch RTCs or go train with international clubs to add to his repertoire and evolve his style.

I also won't discount that Synder is happy where he's at and the results he's getting. While winning gold medals is the ultimate goal, he's still out there competing and making the world team, he's got sponsors, and he's got family and his bible bros supporting him. Snyder's been having fun and making a living doing what he loves, which isn't the case for a whole lotta people. We had this same discussion about JB not so long ago.
