- Thread starter El-Jefe
- Start date
In your best Johnny Cash, at the top of your lungs, wake up the dog, scare your wife and kids...
I hear that train a rollin', rollin' 'round the bend.
Here we go. Zain in blue.
Nothing but handfighting through 1:00. No shots. Zain tapping head. Skri gets passivity warning.
Hard snaps from Zain. Skri on the shot clock now.
Zain gets warned for hard handfighting.
1-0 Zain for passivity.
Zain heavy on head, but gets warned again. Blood time for Zain. Same cut from last match opened back up. 0:37 to go in first.
Back under way.
Zain moving him around pretty good. And, TWWWOOOOO for Zain!!! 3-0.
Break.
Relax, Zain. Three minutes to go.
Skri pushing into him now. Zain going to get warned for passivity, I'll bet. Reshot off of Skri leads to another TWWWWOO!!!! for Zain, and two more for exposure!!!! 7-0 with 1:39 to go. I can't take this.
Skri slow to center. Shot by Skri. Zain says here are my hips.
1:00 to go.
Skri has got nothing for him. Nothing but tired forward movement. If he shoots now, Zain will no doubt spin behind.
And, Zain Retherford is GOING TO THE OLYMPICS!!!!!!

Come on Zain! Let's do it!!!
I can’t recall wanting someone to win this much in a long time, Zain epitomizes class
Zain needs a wrestling helmet
Me hitting refresh….
3-0 Zain at the break. Passivity and a TD. Close to exposure too. Sweet TD, almost a pick out of a scramble.
Another TD for Zain!!! 5-0. Exposure 7-0!!!
This dude is tired and beat up. Zain inflicting pain.
Zain is heading to the Olympics! What a ****in run this guy went on on the backside.
Gauntlet ran. Olympian.
Zain Retherford, Olympian.
U.S qualifies all men’s freestyle weights.

Some ghost in my house cutting onions. No one else home. That's my only explanation.
Tell me again that Zain can’t compete with the best wrestlers in the world.
Saw a funny tweet earlier that said Zain should wear a head wrap when trading stocks on Wall Street.
Happy for this! Congrats to him qualifying Team USA at this weight!
Wow how big do you think his weight cut was?
We should pitch in and buy him a USA biking helmet.
I felt the same way - he’s my favorite wrestler. Extremely thankful we will get to see him close out his amazing career in Paris. 🙏 🥇
he's always had the 'tough' losses in international competition - like the one yesterday. This is great!
Well, since he was already the 2023 World Champion, I don't think that was ever in doubt.
