Side note on the Rogers/Nitcher match.. The 3 point NF for Nitcher in the 1st was very close to potentially dangerous! I believe he had a power half with a cross body in..
It was a tough power half from the cross body with a restricted airway, which was easily seen from where I was. Rogers had to pull Nitchers hand off to keep it from covering his mouth.
I wasn't there and I'm curious as to how you can perform a power half AND cover someones mouth at the same time? lol
Chase, problems sleeping this morning also? Ha.
I thought Colt could have got two NF for the tilt. I thought I saw the ref count twice with his arm. It was close. And, I imagine that Colt was giving up some weight since he looked about half the size of Rogers and that Nitcher is wrestling one weight higher at VA. Those factors, plus starting out behind 5-0, it amazing that Colt battled back the way he did. He really showed that BIG HEART of a champion and appeared to have plenty of gas left in his tank (just got caught in that stinking five pointer at the start).
Maybe if they wrestle 10 different times, they would have five different winners. Its a shame somebody has to lose. To me, if was like Nitcher won the first half and then Colt won the second half. But, alas - it is the final score that counts. And, I saw the score board showing 9-6 to Nitcher. Congrats to both gentlemen and I hope you both do great at VA!
