It would be awesome if he could pull off the upset tonight. I hope he sticks around after this weekend.

Heck of a lineup tonight. Kyven/Snyder will close it out.

Does anyone know if the finals will be televised? They've got non-standard ordered lineup (Gadson v. Snyder is last) as if it might be telecast.

Doubt it will be anywhere but Flo. Could be wrong, I suppose.

 

[matclone]

Ah, yes, the might or might-not work network. We'll give it a try.

Finals are loaded.

It's a bummer that someone will have to win that Gilman-Ramos match. Not a fan of either.

Neither am I, but I wanted it to happen.

So many matches I would love to see but can't bring myself to take a chance on flo based on the negative reviews I've read. Kyven and Snyder alone might be worth the 20 but I would be beyond pissed if I paid and didn't get to see it.

 

[buf87]

I just keep the flo subscription. To many good event through the year

 

[enisthemenace]

Snyder is a freak.

 

[matclone]

Snyder too much for Kyven in their first best-of-three match. 10-0.

 

[buf87]

Great matches so far

It is impressive how Kyven dominated and rolled through everyone else. As he said in that interview Snyder is currently the best in the world. Kyven has made a lot of progress and is indisputably the second best in the US, I believe, which I don't believe he was considered (indisputably) before the last two tournaments. So hopefully he can build on that.

Below I've linked the article in the Omaha World-Herald (the tournament was in Lincoln), the article from USA Wrestling, and the results from Flo. There is a lot going on in the other weights, like David Taylor and Kyle Dake still fighting for spots.

Note that fellow CWC alum, Dom Bradley, like Kyven, also finished 2nd, at heavyweight.

Former Iowa State NCAA champ Kyven Gadson (97 kgs/214 pounds) represented a fourth area representative in the finals. He was swept 10-0, 13-2 by 21-year-old Kyle Snyder, who won a 2015 World title and 2016 Olympic gold medal. ...

I'm surprised that I didn't see Bradley mentioned in the Cyclone Wrestling Twitter feed. I think I received about 100 notifications over the weekend and don't recall any with Dom (except from "iawrestle".

 

[matclone]

KJ was in the corner for both Bradley and Gadson. I could hear him.

 

[buf87]

Dom has stated that he is looking for a home & since him & Kyven were working out at Ames High, I think CRTC doesn't have the money to keep Dom & Kyven. Think I would rather have Earl and/or Mike Moreno in room anyway
