Gable is the best p4p wrestler in the country at all levels. He’s doing this because it’s free money. He’s not the oldest wrestler competing in college this year. Some clown said something about him not having any significance in NCAA wrestling…he’s the only two time hodge winning hwt ever. I can’t wait to see him embarrass all your favorite heavys

I can’t figure who’s dumber between you and hammerlock. Imagine thinking the NCAA considers the WWE a professional sport…

Man you just have some really bad opinions. Again, the event sells out any arena in the country. We do not need to hold it in a wrestling hotbed to show that it’s popular so they can raise prices. It’s not a big money maker for them. They could raise ticket prices $50 and it wouldn’t make a difference to them. It’s a drop in the bucket for them. That’s such a short sighted argument. Great…The NCAA makes more short term money, but loses every program west of Nebraska. The sport is dying at the NCAA level. Again, holding the event in the only area the sport is popular is a great way to kill off the sport everywhere else. As for Minnesota/MSP not being a great location…what?!? Let’s compare it to your “great” suggestion of Cincy…. It has way more hotel rooms, more nationally recognized restaurants and bars, the #1 ranked airport in North America(easier and cheaper to fly to than Cincy for the vast majority of the country), better shopping than Cincy, more museums/theaters/music venues than Cincy and actually has multiple venues that could host…which are all in downtown areas that are easy to get to. It has everything a good host city does with potential weather being the only real negative. The northeast is just as likely to have bad weather at that time of year though so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Cincy?!? A city that isn’t central, has an even smaller airport than KC, and isn’t a great tourist destination…lol what a terrible suggestion. What venue would you suggest in Cincinnati? Indianapolis is in the same area and a much better host. Your ideas are all great if your goal is to kill the sport. The event sells out no matter what. Why would the cities mentioned having the “hottest”(highest resale prices) tickets be good for anyone other than resellers? If we want the sport to stick around long term, we need exposure in new places. Holding it in the NE every year would make it even more niche and shorten its lifespan.

Oh look another one

Idk any other fan base that has supported pedophiles like PSUs has.

Using participation numbers at the highest level tournaments in the world is not a good metric for how “popular” a sport is worldwide. How many are attempting to qualify? How many kids participate? How was the fan attendance for Greco vs freestyle at the Olympics? Its anecdotal, but I was encouraged to wrestle Greco at Fargo despite not being interested simply because it was “easier to qualify”.

Another trash bigot revealing themselves on the board. Thanks

I agree, but then when someone posts expectations based on reality they get ripped on for not giving the US enough credit or whatever. the only USMFS wrestler that really underperformed was Mason. The others just aren’t as good as people wanted to believe.

lololol ask Dake or Spencer if they’d rather have one gold (2016) vs a silver and bronze(2024) lmao at factoring in non medalists, but not the Russians that weren’t here. Knock down Dake and Snyder a spot for sure plus maybe Spencer. People were hyping up the US preemptively asking if the US should have an asterisk next to their team title this year and this is the performance they put up??? this team shit the bed compared to expectations

Ok, “arguably” the worst in 50+ years. That better? I’d take a gold with a full field over a bunch of (shared) bronze without Russia

Absolute delusion.

He doesn’t best people off strength. He’s quicker, slicker, has beautiful timing and knows how to use leverage. Zain could barely even get his hands on him. That’s not strength.

Why would only half the team medaling with 0 golds not be disappointing? Especially without Russia. It’s the worst performance in 50+ years! You really have that low of expectations for USA Wrestling? This isn’t Greco. its also the way they lost. Brooks lost because of bad decisions. Parris had the worst possible gameplan for his opponent. Both are likely better wrestlers than guys they lost to. Dake came in as the favorite and lost. In what world is that all not disappointing?

lol but I’m right. I’m not saying he’s lying about getting a concussion, I’m saying he would wrestle with it if he could make weight.
