[oldschool]

hendrickson's freestyle inexperience front & center here unfortunately

Im wrong, good challenge 

[Dark Energy]

Hendrickson.  V Kurbanov.

K gets a leg and H falls to back.  Yuck.  0-4.  Stuck in a precarious position.  Finally bellies down.  On feet.  
 

H gets to a foot but only a step out.  
scramble and 2 for K.  Fair.  H has a foot caught under and across K body. used by K for effect.

 H being out savied here.  Down 1-6 going to Second.   Wyatt gets shot but hoisted way over by K.  Four K.  10-2.  Challenge Wyatt.  Looks bad.

To me, Wyatt showing sub par Freestyle acumen.  Not all that surprising given he is pretty damn inexperienced with it.

Challenge won!!  But just 2 red.  8-2.

K in.  H pulls hard and gets K up for 2.  Hard effort there.  4-8

Dig deep Wyatt!!  Scramble.  Tries head punch but tired and not close and slips off.  K gets behind and 2 turns.  
 

4-14 tech.  Yuck.

What the hell was that head pinch. Between this and Parris at the olympics american HWs have very poor in match decisions and tactics 

[Truzzcat]

I love wyatt but his wrestling IQ stinks why would you go head pinch there kurbnov was not threatening short drag at all he could have just ran behind.

Hendrickson got teched... it could very well be a 1 & dun situation for Wyatt.

Ugh agreed 

[Tripnsweep]

3 out of 4 won by tech fall. Not an awful start. 

[boconnell]

He looked super sloppy the whole match.  He repeatedly went for scores when he should have been defending and scoring a go behind.  He honestly looked exhausted in the first minute.  That's a hugely disappointing match.

Mat D... from China, Buheeerdun.

Cousin to Git Er Dun?
