I think we all agree lautt is the clear favorite but i don't think this is a fair statement to any of the kids especially lautt. That is why all will show up and wrestle to the best of their abilities on this weekend and a winner will be declared.

It actually makes it even better if a kid can rise up and win. Best wishes to Wyatt. Keep rising up!
