Well got to see some of the quarter finals today. With what appears to be relatively new points (3 pt take down), quicker pins, revised stalling rules and changed riding time, a lot more action on the mat. Course i may have just realized these changes this year.
 
The championships matches were outstanding. The upset of Gable Steveson was historic. Congratulations to Lt. Hendrickson on his win.

several finals where the will to win won. Especially the hwywgt final. While am not understanding all the new rules yet, think they are for the better. Can still remember when they outlawed the double chicken wing when was wrestling.
 
I thought a lot of the finals were pretty boring with not much action until the end. The semifinals are usually the most interesting and action-packed anyway. The 285 lbs. was great. You never know what is going to happen in the sport of wrestling because things can change in an instant. BUT, those two announcers were especially annoying and seemed intent on who could outtalk the other. Overall, it was a great 3 days for us wrestling fans. Well done grapplers!
