A few pre-Final OGA (Old Guy Awards) nominations:

Best Beatdown: Yonger majoring and pummeling AJ
Best Comeback from awaiting stretcher: Bryce Hepner
Most Grudging Respect: Gabe Arnold’s AA run at 197
Most Open Disrespect: Rob-a-Duke crowing about winning a Semi he absolutely lost
Most Exciting Flurry: Last 20 seconds of Shayne’s SV win over Swiderski
Best Buzzer Beater: See above
Most Consequential Quick Whistle: Ref stopping PJ in the middle of his cradle/TD sequence
Most Egregious Independent Review: Overriding ref’s call of PJ’s TD over Rob-a-Duke
Most Heartwarming: Stanich and Hardy, exhausted and seated at center of mat after 3rd place bout, tapping heads and conversing, as if over a coffee or beer
Most Heartbreaking: PJ losing Finals slot to human error and/or bias and/or reviewer cataracts

Who is the last guy to have 100% bonus over a full season? What Barr has done this season is incredible. I think I still lean Mesenbrink for the hodge because 165 is a tougher weight this year than 197 but Barr deserves more praise for the season he’s had

I made a homerish guess of 42.5 back in January and I am thrilled my guess wasn't too outlandish!

I throw out Mitchs regular decision. I mean the Hodge is for most dominant wrestler. You ride a kid for 4 or 5 minutes that's pretty damn dominate. Lol

I have said it before but I think Josh is more dominant than Mitch. I guess it will be a toss up between Josh or Mendez

Don’t get too anxious everyone. The show in Cleveland starts at 6:30 PM but there’s still a bunch of pre finals hoopla including the national anthem. The wrestling won’t start until 7 PM because that’s what ESPN shows on their schedule.

Nah, national anthem was about 20 minutes ago. Getting ready to go momentarily. Though it looks like someone is going to yell or something first.
