Ummm Keuter is in play supposedly. Take that with a mountain range of salt.

Hoffman's travels across weights have certainly been something. I hope he can successfuly hold 184 without going on a Barry Davis bender in February.

Which non-participant receives more air time: Ben Keuter or Moriah Marinelli?

Spencer was absolutely getting flashbacks to 'Nam when Mega stepped over the half

Looks like our worst fears from a month ago were confirmed last night and Hendrickson's U23 title came at a very significant cost. He will most likely end his career as a 2x AA with no titles. Barring a Steveson comeback, Kerk will be untouched this year. If he is going to pursue a serious WCAP career then he needs to get out of his own way and pursue surgery + recovery. This sucks so much. He has been one of, if not the, best technician in all of college wrestling with a flair for sticking everyone and a red-hot prospect making an immediate impact on the senior circuit. Where were you when he nearly broke the world bronze medalist's ribs on a gut ride from hell?

Cousins walk leads to munchies

Vak we are on the same side. Let’s just use an emoji and call it a day. Esteemed VakAttack Random idiot on a forum Or better articulated: Spencer Lee fans who say “F (orget) the haters

Was Mark Hall in the Mocco category coming out of high school?

Correct. There is a way, but it will cut out multiple times and interrupt the end of matches with terrible unrelated ads that play on repeat.

That usually goes away pretty quick after the first match. Can we say the same about Lee? Only time will tell. Like I said, I'm rooting for him to clear his high bar and come home from Paris with a shiny gold medal but I'm not wearing rose-colored glasses.

Put Lee on the world stage and tell me it won’t happen. He can’t hang with Cronin Ramos et al but I’m supposed to believe he can go a full 6 with the world’s best? Okayyy. He can hammer the piss out of them in a way that would make JO jealous but he still can’t figure out the second period. It is what it is until he proves otherwise.

I think Spencer Lee medals and depending on his draw could blitz the same way Musukaev just did, or gut it out by blitzing firsts/surviving second periods. Is it such a ridiculous comparison to say “hey, here is this world talent that can’t keep it together for 6 minutes against the (very few) domestic competition who can hang with him after the first period? Can only imagine what happens against the world…” I say no. His track record says no, for and against. And thus my “gee he should have gone to the best wrestling cardio RTC in the country” thought. Or are you saying that Lee can’t hold Musukaev’s jockstrap? Because I think he is every bit as exciting and full of BOOMBOOMBOOM don’t blink or you’ll miss it explosions. Just want to ensure we are on the same wavelength.

That’s really fkn rude. And how am I playing all sides? I just compared him to the reigning world champ at an Olympic weight that also has considerable gas tank issues and said, for the umpteenth time over the years, that he is my pick for the 2024 Olympic team and would have been for 2020 as well if he didn’t blow out his knees. And @Wrestleknownothing he didn’t resolve the cardio at worlds. Still the same wrestler he has always been, but he finally put it all together to outlast his weaknesses as all the best ones do. We will have to agree to disagree on this one. He’s still the most exciting wrestler in the world.

He should pick up the nickname Moose. As in Spencer “Call me Musukaev. Hold my beer and watch the most exciting 3 minutes of wrestling while I hang on for a 6 minute match” Lee And he is still my OTT pick. Even though he should have joined NLWC to become his best self. I hate myself for saying that but it’s true.

Zain vs Dake... yikes. I bet the public match would be close by ritual of habit but that first match was probably a bloodbath. And that's why we likely see Zain pull a Greezy. Stupid IOC. dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.

I'm not saying I would forgo three grand to not make weight, but maybe an ILRTC benefactor sends an extra venmo activity that month lol. Of course Dr. Mikey Carr could also do a workup and determine he has a certified medical reason.

Can the incumbent (Richards and Lee) decline the challenge and let the challenger have the Pan Am spot by default? Do I really want to make weight for the right to make weight before I have to make weight considering I just made weight? I'm thinking Richards much more so than Lee fwiw

You didn't notice the upside-down pineapple icon next to those matches?

Last year's Mekhi vs Starrocci was literally a rematch of the NCAA finals

I am also cautiously excited to see what Warner does at a better weight. He's still going to be as boring as ever, but hopefully his gas tank is much improved without the brutal cut he had in folk.

Lee vs. Lilledahl send tweet

A rather big difference is Jakob Casper can do a standing backflip and Steveson can only get it done with a 25 ft running roundoff launchpad. He's a beyond-elite level of athleticism but he might just not be the type of athlete that WWE is looking for because Vince McMahon doesn't care about your quicktwitch ability to snap down and go behind during a scripted play.

What if I told you Cox medaled a year before Gilman who medaled another year before Dake or Taylor got their first medal
