Looking forward to SVN and the Bouz

Dake is Dake. Pretty much the best in the world. I hope Joseph can tire him out just a little. That said if Jason shows any magic at all I will be jumping off my couch.

Pretty jazzed for Bo, Snyder, Zain and Yanni

For all the rest I am just going to sit back and enjoy.

Curious if Robbie will be giving Bouzakis some pointers from his meeting last year with Nardone.

Keep DT away from the college guys if his caution is due to Covid.

Perhaps DT is helping give special tours to some of the Junior competitors?

 

[dmm53]

Looks like it is about to begin.

Byers on the call with Sally Roberts. Byers isn't exactly an expert on freestyle.

 

[CropDuster507]

Ya'll ever been to a Pizza Hut? This P'Zone is kinda fire.

 

[dmm53]

They announced US guys to Metteo Pellicone freestyle tournament in early March, but I don't recall seeing anyone from NLWC, which is sort of surprising.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

This Mullen kid just knocked off the #1 heavy. wow.

Garrett and Yianni pulled out. Perhaps the latter because of the former (if his opponent withdrew). Not sure.

 

[Kale_yeah]

Pay for view won't work if guys don't wrestle. If covid is the reason ,than ok.

 

[CropDuster507]

Mortimer RIPPED it.

 

[Sportfan2017]

I am getting a "Stream has ended" Error code 230001. Anybody else?

 

[dmm53]

From DT - "I was looking forward to wrestling both Chris Foca and Max Dean tonight. I am sorry the matches won’t happen, I am looking forward to mixing it up with them in the future! However- we have some awesome matches tonight, make sure you guys tune in! "

 

[dmm53]

I am getting a "Stream has ended" Error code 230001. Anybody else?

Nope. Trying reloading. Works with Google Chrome. You might want to try a different browser from what you are using.

 

[wrestlinPSU]

Some real nice interesting camera angles.

 

[CropDuster507]

Also, this is a petty thing, but I'm reallllllllly struggling with some of these match-ups or events where we have awesome graphics, lights, cameras, etc., and then the two competitors are wearing similar singlets. It drives me insane.
High seed (or better credential) gets you choice. Opponent must wear a singlet at least 70% a contrasting color.
Home gets choice. Opponent must wear a singlet at least 70% a contrasting color.

It's such a simple fix. It's obnoxious to have all this awesomeness of sport and production, and then the two competitors are wearing 90% black. Make it simple for the outsiders. Make it obvious.

Best thing FS ever did was move to the standardized markings and sponsor placements on the singlets.

 

[STAND with PRIDE]

This Mullen kid just knocked off the #1 heavy. wow.

Caught him in Sads move on Snyder

 

[dmm53]

It seems they have given weights for the junior matches, but I don't recall ever seeing weights for senior matches (either tonight or in past iterations of this event). Curious about what weight Dake and Nolf will be contested, along with other matches.

 

[dmm53]

2,235 people watching already. But no one is having parking problems or for that matter buying popcorn or waiting in a bathroom line.

 

[PSUcup1]

That was a great bought

 

[OldPAwrestler]

These kids are on fire!!!

 

[bowandarrow]

Love that we can see how many people are watching always been very curious what actual viewership is on these types of events.

Edit: And can see the "tips" amount too!

Anyone know how this # compares to other NLWC or similar events?

 

[CropDuster507]

Dalton Perry is good af

 

[bowandarrow]

Need the @El-Jefe review on Dalton Perry.

 

[dmm53]

I see Gwiz and Matt McCutcheon are both watching (based on remarks they've made in the comments section of Rokfin). Also RBY.

 

[Sportfan2017]

I have watched them all....don't ever remember them displaying that info. Cool though

 

[El-Jefe]

Need the @El-Jefe review on Dalton Perry.

I don't follow JR High much. Only what I see in headlines.

The headline I'm aware of: Perry pinned PA AAA 106 champ Vinny Kilkeary at this fall's PA Power Wrestling event.

 

[PSUcup1]

Is Perry in 8th grade?

 

[dunkej01]

 

[dmm53]

Looks like Bouzakis is still uncommitted. Flo has him ranked #5 in Pound for Pound.

 

[LHavenlion]

Is Perry in 8th grade?

Yep

 

[Mcnulty7310]

Bouzakis is like a man amongst boys. Just dominant over a solid wrestler in Nardone.

 

[dunkej01]

 

[El-Jefe]

Looks like Bouzakis is still uncommitted. Flo has him ranked #5 in Pound for Pound.

I'm half-afraid to ask who they have ranked higher ... Van Ness, FIgueroa, Facundo ... who else?

Bouzakis is the consensus #1 guy in the 2022 class and was last year. And the 2022 class is loaded.

 

[mcruny42]

SVN is smooth
