7th through 10th place is based on your match points/method of victory and since Green didn't get a tech or pin in his first match he put himself in a tougher spot to catch up to those who did that right away.

US leads by 19 points, so one American win or one Russian loss and the US clinches the team title.

He got 4 points, so must've finished 9th.

US is up 150 to 120 after Spencer's match. But Haines and Lee both pulled a Russian back in with their wins.

The National Duals final also got slotted in a bad spot where the women's basketball game took forever and pushed it back about 15-20 minutes from it's expected start time IIRC. BTN occasionally has issues with that, can't do a lot about games going into overtime, but have gotten their scheduling worked out just a bit better over the years.

Lugo was number one seed Covid year. Brody Teske was one escape away from all-American his senior year. He did also make R12 as frosh at UNI but his middle two years were R16 and 1-2 and was definitely at his best the end of his senior year both in the B10s and NCAA.

He is wrestling RAF again in two weeks.

Blades injured her ankle in Zagreb last month, even forfeited out of her bronze medal match. She didn't wrestle after that until regionals and this tournament. But not 100 percent yet.

Similar thing happened to DeSanto in Zagreb a few weeks ago when he thought he was winning 12-12 on criteria and actually already had his hand raised. Then they reviewed and changed it to a loss because the opponent had it. He should've been going for a score at the end instead of trying to prevent one, and they didn't put time back on the clock to give him a chance. Everyone knows he got screwed, but It's officiating and weird stuff happens. It's not like Bartlett is off the roster because he lost a controversial match, if anything it probably helps him get a rematch.

Hendrickson-Hillger is RAF07, about half that card is already announced.

Oliver pushed him out twice during the match and for whatever reason the ref didn't give him the points either time. There is no grounding anymore if the guy appears to go to his knees just to try and avoid the push out (it's still a judgement call), UWW changed that back in December so RAF followed suit. The right guy won in the end, just need to find a better way to review it in real time instead of having to wait.

I think Georgio will be giving out $1000.

Bad News certainly never mentioned any incident in his interviews or on his website back before his passing, so not sure where that story would be coming from.

I don't think he could've made it past more than a couple guys tops before getting turned. Still impressive though for his age.

That was Andre the Giant that Bad News supposedly confronted. Bad News and Hulk were always friends, that's why Bad News went to the WWF later. And Hulk and Linda had already been separated for almost a year by the time the tape happened, that's the reason Bubba and his wife set it up to begin with to try and make him feel better. They were already split before they even taped the last season of their reality show, only appearing together enough to film it when she came back from California to Florida.
