Wrestling FinalX PBP

Indisputable intentional headbutt by Berger. Didn't realize he was a dirty wrestler like that. Hope it was a momentary lapse of judgment and not his character.

Does freestyle have no option for penalizing such a dirty move?
Zain literally matched head position for head position on that shot

Looked to me like there’s gonna be stitches before 6:00. Nasty cut.

Let's see if Jason has continued to close the gap! Bo and Varner coaching Jason. Dake with heavy hands as the two feel each other out. Nolf warned for passivity. Dake holding center, Nolf attempts a shot, but nothing doing. Halfway through the first and not much going on. Nolf goes on the clock. Some snaps, but no real attempts to score, 1-0 Dake. Dake with an underhook, but doesn't use it. Restart with 0:35. Dake in deep on a double and they go out of bounds. Nolf does a fantastic job to start in quad pod, so it's only 1. 2-0 at the break.

2nd period starts and Dake is still holding center. Dake looks incredibly sound with his defense and Nolf can't break through. 1:30 left. Dake warned for passivity. Nolf holding center, in on a deep single, and otherworldly defense by Dake. Head pinch to chest wrap, Dake with the takedown to trap arm and a turn, 6-0 Dake. That's how it ends. Dake takes match 1.

I thought the 2 & 2 early in the match was more of a gift to Nick than the caution + 1, but I’ll take it.
 
Zain likes wrestling tough until people wrestle tough back then he tantrums. Miss Pico big brothering him tbh

That whole first period, Nolf wrestled close to OOB. I feel like Dake always does that to him. No one else can.
 
JB/Chance up next. Chance took 1 from JB last year. Chance is a freakin' tank! Sort of some chippy handfighting from both guys to start. Chance in on a deep low single, gets the corner, JB is trying to fight it off, but Chance takes a 2-0 lead. Blood time for Chance. JB warned for passivity. Burroughs trying to work the arm drag to low single, but nothing doing. 0:30 left. Chance warned for passivity and he goes back on blood time. JB looks like he is going to try to use his speed advantage to open Chance up, but he can't get through and the 1st ends 2-0 Marsteller.

2nd period starts with hard handfighting and JB is warned for a forearm to the side of Chance's head. JB on blood time for a cut on the bridge of his nose. Chance ties JB up to slow him down and JB can't get through. Lots of blood in this match as it stops again, this time for Chance. 2:00 left. Burroughs trying to work from space, Chance tries tying him back up, JB lowers and blast double for 2! 2-2 JB. Chance in deep on a single, JB hits the splits, they go OOB, and Chamce regains the lead, 3-2. 0:30 left. JB drags, gets to a leg, Chance counters, and JB can't get through. Ends 3-2 for Marsteller.

JB wants a brick thrown, maybe for a singlet grab? Slay sees something on the screen that makes him think it should be 1. And it is!! 3-3 JB on a singlet pull. Wow! Now Humphries and Chance are questioning if the brick was thrown in time. They raise JB's hand and he takes the first match.

Anyone else think that OOB situation where Dake went straight back out on knees was basically the same as the Yianni/Lee situation

Nolf was lifting and pushing while Yanni went out on his own. I didn't like the call in that match though.

hey Crop - I was assuming the Nick got it due to Yianni trying to score on the edge - he tried a duck while on his knees. I see Nolf lifting Dake up and pushing out... guess that is it...
 
If I’m not mistaken, it was a C1 for Lee. I agree that the difference in situation would be that Yianni (allegedly) took himself OOB, where Nolf pushed Dake.

I love me some cortisone shots. Doctors should set up mobile cortisone shot mobiles at ski resorts - they’d make a killing.

Anyway, this is on script for Cox giving his unusual history the last 5 or so years. Serious drama.
So, it's true he is going to Iowa as an assistant coach?
