@wrestlingnomad@jaredsportsriff I think at the very start of the season you can say returning champ, runner up, etc. After that it’s a new season. If Vega and Hardy wrestled the first match of the season the season I’d be fine with returning champ vs an AA. After that part doesn’t reflect on this season.
@wrestlingnomad@jaredsportsriff What I meant by it matters this year was because Jax beat the returning runner up this year. That win shouldn’t matter next year.
@wrestlingnomad@jaredsportsriff For this year it does, but not for next year. Like I said I’m an OSU homer, but Mitchell earned it this year. Best wrestler and most dominant this year.
@wrestlingnomad@jaredsportsriff You're saying that if you can't beat a generational talent as a true freshman/red shirt freshman, you should be penalized for it three tears down the road?
@wrestlingnomad@jaredsportsriff What about a dude that is sitting behind MM or Jax right now? By that logic they couldn't win when they get a shot in a few years.
@wrestlingnomad@jaredsportsriff True, but let’s say kid comes in not highly ranked. He red shirts, then is in and out of the line up for a year or two. By his ST season he’s a hammer goes undefeated with bonus rate of 97%. Under the current thought he wouldn’t win
