174 is no-man's land because of Sta(l)rocci as well, gents.

149 or 141?

Austin Gomez a go, then?

65 KG is also interesting and deep AF. Mind you, I am human and might have messed up a bit here. I am okay with that. I already hear the "Kolodzik just beat DeSanto" crap. A ) DeSanto had already wrestled two badass matches that day and Kolodzik hadn't wrestled at all. B ) They're within one tier, so that is perfectly explainable. I just don't see anyone on McKenna's level right now. I only think Alirez, DeSanto, or Pantaleo will even (potentially) give him a match. Pantaleo is also an unknown. I am putting him there on faith and faith alone. Eierman could also end up being Tier 3, but he just hasn't looked like he has since his injuries started piling up - much like Kemereerererrerr. Tier 3 is jacked. I could see any of them taking second... or DNP. Seeding will play a huge part in this. McKenna likely gets the #1 seed, right? He could see Alirez, DeSanto and Pantaleo all before the finals. That would be wild and greatly reduce his chances at winning the tournament.

These would be my tiers - my own. They hold no weight insofar as seeding purposes. If they are using that jacked up PIN format, Lee might not even get the 1st seed again.

57 KG is interesting to me in the sense that it appears to be much less exciting with the current entries. You gents know and understand how I like to do my tiers... I wouldn't be surprised to see someone lose to someone one tier below them or defeat someone one tier above them. What makes 57 KG interesting is that because of there being seemingly nobody in Tier 3, that it essentially makes it a Three Horse Race, even if I see Lee as a tier above. What is also neat/interesting is that I don't see anybody from the next tier (Tier 4 because Tier 3 is empty) losing to anyone else currently entered nor do I see them challenging the Tier 2 gents. So aside from a deck, injury, or someone's fiance cheating on one of them... 57 KG is pretty boring.

I am not sure he beats Heller, but he at least tries and competes with him. The Heller twins(?) are really turning it on right now. They both look great.

Really wondering if Gonzalez down at 125 would be their best option. I think Kilkeary is going to be the guy next year. He looks quite good right now.

McCrone looks just small for 125. Heinselman, just not quite as good, skill-wise. Bouzakis is good. We doubted but he is a frosh. He will take lumps being a physical 133lber at the D1 level. Mendez... this wasn't Mendez wrestling down, it was Matthews wrestling to his actual ability. D'Emilio had me worried. I don't think 149 is a problem size-wise, I do think he is having some issue(s) adjusting to the weight still. I think he could really surge end-of-year. Paddy looks damn good. Real good. Wilcox shouldn't be our answer. I am hoping Hepner is good (enough) to go soon. I am wondering, long-term if Paddy at 165 and maybe Herman at 157 is a better option than Wilcox at 165? Just a thought. Or even give Chase a chance at 165? Or Paddy up at Brown at 157? Not sure, but I don't think it was more of Heller going out and winning as it was Wilcox also losing it. Guy is a go-getter typically and we didn't see that here. Kharch being hurt is a concern. Is it too early to medical and let Welsh go? I think Welsh could make some fun noise still. Either way I think tOSU pulls A at 174 at this point. Hoffman. Damn. What. The. Phuck. Not sure what is going on here. It is like he went back to the Hoffman that was at 184 and forgot about how much he has grown and learned. Another case like WIlcox against a Heller twin. Heller didn't go out and just win... Hoffman decided to let him get his ass kicked well and proper. Geog is small. He needs another year to get up to size, I think. He has the moxy to succeed and when it all comes together I think he will be fine. Pitzer was going to beat whoever (not named Feldman) that tOSU put out, so the dual was gone either way. At this point, let Hoffman go 285 and put Shumate in at 184. We knew that at least seven of those matches were going to be batshit tough. I was wrong on 149 not being tough, unless you ignore the first four (4) minutes. 157 and 285 were not close, which was expected. Pitt just came to dance.

He is on my heel team.

Izzy legitimately tried to take Amine's eye several times.

Yes they did. They were close.

Oh wow, really? I thought he weighed in right under 213...

Leave this here as a reminder when theys officially died in the Moral Fiber department...

I think Hamiti is the current best wrestler and they are trying to win duals that they shouldn't be worries about losing but are worried about losing. I don't know what his weight is, but presuming he makes it up to 174lbs, he has a little under four weeks to make it back to 165lbs. Meaning it would take just under four werks to descend appropriately. Soooo... I say if we see him against Ruth in February than he might be staying up. Long story short: I have no clue.

165 top 6 seeds go 1 2 3 5 4 6.

Also, sorry I couldn't get the basis of it before.

I don't particularly care how I am acting on this specific subject, regardless of which social media outlet it is. It is pathetic and weak-minded to still be on Pyle's gonads about it. He legitimately showed he had a pair by defending himself, his co-worker(s?), and his product and the first thing every single idiot wants to do is suck on them extensively (the gonads). It would be pathetic it it was a private conversation via text. It would be pathetic if it was in a a book or magazine. It would be pathetic if it were scribed in to ancient stone tablets. That is what makes it absolutely phucking hilarious. He isn't winning, he's won.

Bith Maylor and Hamiti were up a weight again against Rider.

He is a polarizing personality in an industry (journalism and/or wrestling) where it pays to be polarizing - both figuratively and fiscally. The amount of heads he is going to live in rent-free is only going to increase.

I don't read good enough to understand that, sorry. I did try, though.

On Twatter? So again, mud gets thrown at you and you turn the other cheek and wipe it off...? That isn't how social media works today, bud.

Yeah. Typing comprehension nore reading comprehension is @Paul158's strong suit, apparently. Also, I would challenge you (Paul) to watch Focus's matches thus far. I don't care what the scores are/were... they were not challenging for him. Sake for Sealey. I have not watched all of Locket's (yet).

This was inaccurate. The Top 6 will place Top 6.

5 - 3 over Novak after coming off injury needs no explanation. He gets that tank and he is contending. His length will gice Brooks and Hidlay fits, methinks.
