I never thought I'd see the term "Head Stash" on this forum. However, I did have to laugh at the quoted post above where the dude said a cart costs $5. They come in 1/2 and 1 g and are like $30-60ish, respectively, in the Chicagoland area.

Rumors (and I really, really, want to stress that they are rumors) are that Jake Paul and Dana White contributed financially, and the Tate brothers offered and may have been politely turned away (probably not the best look for a guy whose business is educating children to take money from sex traffickers).

He said it was a short guy so I'm assuming he's talking about Cole Matthews...

Kyle Connell?

Can Ono hold 133 for a whole season? If he goes 141, I could see him beating Mendez but losing to Hardy.

I remember him well, fast as lightning and could go upper body or attack the legs. I follow IL HS wrestling somewhat, and using the clues of a state and Fargo champ with a career cut short due to injury, Brill was my guess...

Bryce Brill?

Hardy is very, very tough to prepare for in either Folk or Freestyle. Similar style to Seth Gross, who coincidentally he beat earlier in a 30+ point match.

Rules matter. Burroughs' double is borderline unstoppable because it typically results in 2, 4, or a pushout for 1 and is low enough to avoid getting jacked up in underhooks or with a single in the air, which would greatly favor Satiev's skill set. No pushouts and 1 pt takedowns would favor BS, pushout and 2 pt. takedown favors JB.

AWA has 7 satellite locations in Wisconsin Lake Country: Ben/Mateah Roehl Mequon/North Shore: Max/Lauren Louvie Madison: Pat Spray South Shore Mafia: Wade Hodges/Jordan Newman Green Bay: Josh Wagner Central Wisconsin: Weston Wichman Fond Du Lac: Wilder Wichman

It's not that people don't give AWA credit, it's that lots of people outside of Wisconsin assume Ben Askren is all these stars' primary coach. There are several AWA locations throughout the state with great coaches at each site. Obviously Ben is the public face of the business, but Max and many other coaches had a hand in developing these athletes from a young age. Ben would probably be the first to give credit to these men and women.

Let's give credit where credit is due when talking about AWA wrestlers: although they are all friends and "teammates" under the AWA banner, Keegan O'Toole is a product of Ben (40 minutes west of Milwaukee) and Parker was coached by Max (10 minutes north of Milwaukee).

It's the "OPEN" for a reason. There are a bunch of dudes who stay in shape coaching or even training part time with a 9-5 for the event knowing full well that they might be lucky to score points, much less win a match. It's a true open where anyone can enter. Realistically there are only 3-4 guys at each weight who have a chance, though. The WTT is different because there are qualifying criteria, so you don't have 80 man brackets and multiple rounds of 30 second 10-0 matches.

As others have mentioned, Keegan is married and a homeowner in COMO. Kind of a different situation than a lot of recent grads getting into the senior circuit who could probably fit all their belongings in their trunk and move on a moment's notice.
