What's this?

Yes, but wrestling isnt there, YET

I don’t know if you watched the Bellator even or not, but holy cow. Cael is by far the best thing to happen to wrestling. Sorry Dan Gable. I don’t think anyone should think Bellator just chose to have an a event at Penn State and do nothing, but show wrestling clips, talk about wrestling the whole night, and have Cael as a ringside announcer at one point. I’d say Cael got the college to give Bellator a very good deal on the venue in exchange for such galore.

I think we will see wrestling get more and more publicity going forward. With the development of the RTC’s(another thing that has been huge for the sport) and USA wrestling not looking like it could be dominant for a while especially with our wrestlers being more accustomed to the new rules than the rest of the world I really Love where the sport is going.

On USA wrestling, I may be biased, but I prefer watching folkstyle far more -- IV_Hokie12 11/07/2017 1:24PM
