BSD: “Mark Hall used a houdini act to avoid giving up the first takedown to Indiana’s Devin Skatkza and then proceeded to tilt the Hoosier like he were an old pinball game”

[I posted the sentence just because I enjoyed the metaphors. But now I notice that young readers probably won’t enjoy them much.]

Not only that, and some of you may have to add to this comment...during the next sequence, when Skatzka had Mark in a Russian Tie, Mark lowered his level, and had the slickest of takedowns...not sure I've seen one quite like it. Haven't seen a replay, though I will.

What's pinball? What's a houdini act?

There’s a replay but you still won’t see him move.

Yeah, I'll bet neither Hall nor Skatkza even know what a Hoosier is.

Modernized redraft:
Mark Hall made like David Blaine, stealing all of Devin Skatkza's extra consonants before tilting the Indiana native into the Upside-Down.
