America's Cup

Looks good. Any reason NLWC is not participating at all?

Because:
A) it is Flo
Or
B) they are having their own Event on the 23rd

Take your pick. 😂

most likely A, of course, but its the event and one can look past flo, I would think

The coaches have to quarantine after traveling, they’d rather be there for their student athletes.

Yes

Looking at the list of athletes it is extremely underwhelming. 86kg, 97kg and 125kg are decent with Hall and the Dean's at 86kg and a few Olympic qualifiers at 97kg and 125kg. Other than that the weight classes are bland with not really interesting potential matchups.

not sure why you were expecting so much. i think this was thrown together in less than 2 weeks. i'm just happy we get to see yianni/j'den/marky again before olympic trials

Just put up the team rosters on flow. Does not look very interesting, I'll pass.

Not a great line-up of matches but it’s wrestling so I’ll be watching! I’m hoping we get to see Mark Hall vs Gabe Dean. Super fun match up but Mark will be giving up so much size. Gabe is a fully sized 86 and Marky is still growing into the weight and honestly I’m not sure if he will ever be a decent sized 86. Sucks because talent wise he is as good as anyone in the country especially in freestyle. God I wish 79 was an Olympic weight. Also excited to see Mike Macchiavello vs J’den Cox. Actually J’den vs anyone is must watch for me. I wish he would open up a bit more because he is dynamic when he does but since his defense is other worldly it’s easy to play it a bit safe. The match I want to see the most overall in the world is J’den vs Sadulaev. Get goosebumps just thinking about it. As much as I love DT I think J’den is the best wrestler in the world right now. I love Snyder as well but I’m pretty sure Cox beats him for the Olympic team. Really sucks that 2 out of JB, Dake, DT, J’den, and Snyder won’t be able to compete. Sorry, way off topic. The America’s cup isn’t the best show but there are still some of the best wrestlers in the world competing so I’m going to be watching!

I don’t get people saying they aren’t going to watch! I definitely understand not getting a FLO membership based on this card but if you already have Flo how can you not watch?! Vito, Yianni, Gabe Dean, Mark Hall, J’den Cox, Gwiz are all wrestling. Might not be great matchups but I’ll watch it all day compared to whatever else is on tv
