Wrestling FinalX PBP

[anon_d29z1jdixxwey]

Zain Train up next! Berger may still be trying to collect heads, but I don't see this one going well for him. Then again, Berger in on a shot and takes and early 2-0 lead. Zain holding center. Berger hopping around the edge. Zain in on a single, drags him back in, and finishes to take a 2-2 lead. 1:30 left. Berger warned for passivity. Zain with heavy handfighting. Berger with a shot, Zain counters with a drag, changes directions, and gets behind for 2. 4-2 Zain. That's how the 1st ends.

2nd period starts with Zain shooting a strong double, finishes for 2. 6-2 Zain. Zain still holding center. Berger with a half a shot, Zain counters with front Headlock, stalemate. 1:45 left. Zain counters a Berger shot with a hard Russian tie, they're on the edge of the mat, but Zain drops to the legs and finishes to go up 8-2. Zain in on a deep single, lifts, and walks Berger OOB to go up 9-2. Zain with a blast double, Berger tries to chest wrap, but Zain is given 4 for the 13-2 tech. Berger's coaches challenge. Challenge won, and it's only 2. 11-2. Berger with a shot off the whistle straight into Zain's face. Busts open Zain's eyebrow. Looked kinda cheap, but I'd imagine Berger will get what's coming to him. Looks like it'll probably need a couple stitches, but they wrap Zain up and he'll finish out the match. Finishes 11-2 after a scrappy restart. Zain's pissed, and match 2 is going to be FUN!

Head but wasn't off the whistle. It was prior to it.

Gable has nothing other than his first name, last name, initials, and country in his singlet. Also sick lol

 

[OzarkLion]

Just a heads up, I won't be able to do PBP for the late session. Have to go to a wedding and watch on delay when I get home.

Is Berger looking for volunteers to take his place in bout 2?

 

[Brian LB-U]

Varner-Kennedy in Taylor’s corner. Cael-Nickal in Brooks’s.

Haven’t seen Cunningham at all today? Am I missing something?

Brooks alluded to some things around the corner coaches in his pre X interview. Evidently it was a bit of “controversy” after the 2021 trials, which they addressed this time.

Can't you watch the wedding on delay?

Where are your priorities?
Thanks for the pbp you’ve done today.

 

[PSUbluTX]

1st round results.

 

[Verolion]

Kyle Snyder is a warrior. He won without scoring. Lol

 

[AndEEss]

Any word on how Cox got injured?

Any word on how Cox got injured?

His alarm clock didn't go off, and he was sprinting to the stadium. Caught a rock.

 

[Agoodnap]

Will they make Snyder wrestle Cox in the future?

 

[hlstone]

Not before worlds

Wouldn't mind missing it altogether! It's one of my old wrestlers... don't know what he's thinking scheduling a wedding during Final X!

Once the ring is given with the question ask, the next responsibility the groom has to be there in time to say "I do" and kiss the bride. He had zero to with deciding when the wedding would occur.

Slipped on his own sweat on the mat.

 

[mcpat]

They clean all the mats. Then people in street shoes walk all over center mat setting up drums for kids in street shoes to play on the mat. I’m sure it’ll be cool but I also hope they clean it again.

Edit: they are

 

[District four]

BTW, Zain won 11-2.

Thanks. I was wondering lol

 

[PSUwrestling]

Ref doing favors for nick Lee in that one but that's how it goes sometimes

Troll

How’s Mizzou looking today?

 

[District four]

Not similar. Lee didn’t challenge. Lee then got a turn. Lots more wrestling then occurred.

Did Lee win?

 

[diggerpup]

Does Iowa even have anyone on Team USA?

Did a single Hawkeye make the Top 3 at any of the 10 weights?

Angry Fish Jr looks like a candidate.

Sort of. One of their girls took 3rd. They're all excited about it over on GIA.

 

[js8793]

That's gotta be one of the most stunning results ever. At least in the 3 match series era.

 

[CropDuster507]

Kudos to Zane. Wow. ****.

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

What an absolutely silly shot. Wrestled two stupid matches and got what he deserved.

 

[js8793]

2021 - Gold
2022 - Silver
2023 - swept at Final X

The results are clear. The farther he gets from Iowa City, the more he regresses....

Can take the wrestler out of Iowa…

Zane Richards and his coaches had a great game plan for Gilman. He went out and got it done. Well executed and a deserving winner.

Been doing it his whole life. He's taken a few years off my life probably.

 

[diggerpup]

With a lead,
Gilman takes an unnecessary diving shot, as if he's diving into a football pile to recover a fumble.
Ends up getting 4'd in the exchange.

Hat tip to Richards for taking advantage of Gilman's mistakes.

 

[js8793]

What's so befuddling about Gilman is that he'll take picture perfect knee pulls and sweep singles and then turn around and dive on his face like a 3rd grader at his first day of practice.

 

[PSUwrestling]

Vito Nashon are worth the price of admission

He seemed unnecessarily desperate to score on a guy whose main scoring opportunities came on Gilman's mistakes. A knee pull or a sweep single keeps you out of danger from a go behind and keeps you off the clock, too.

A sad outcome for a great dude
