@@dbxlfan6766 Ummm... you said "he defiantly (sic) isn't a champion". Did he win?? Then he's the CHAMP. It's that simple. Have you wrestled at that level? You might not believe he won, but he outwrestled the other guy.

@WrestlerMichael Ай бұрын

Way more stalling than David Carr, who was shooting and getting takedowns and he got hit 3x and they wanted to hit him a 4th time. It sounds like you would be ok if Drake would have done nothing as well. Just 2 guys standing in front of each other doing nothing. You must not like action; maybe you should watch more curling?

hear me out, stalling needs to be punished more than it is, i just graduated from high school as a 2x state placer and it wasn’t as much of an issue at that level, but the 2nd stall call should be 2 points instead of 1. people let off the gas the last minute or period of a match and get away with it.

force out needs to be worth 1. having your back toward outer bounds is an unfair advantage because if you get into trouble you can scoot out of bounds, but if you attack, you have the whole mat to work with.
