What's this?

Those same coaches have a tendency to sit guys out against #1 ranked guys.

Then they give a really bad interview where they are nervous and struggle to explain the cowardly decision they just made because even they weren't 100% comfortable with it.

Then his loyal fan base loses their minds because wrestling fans and media have the nerve to call out their all mighty coach for making that decision.
