Its really hard not to see these 8 being the guys on the podium, regardless of the order they fall in.
All of your wrestlers are goin to make AA or round of 12, huh?
Not all, just most of them.
No love for Trice, LoSt?

You have Thorn, Schlatter, and Glasser too low...and Ben Berthow too high, lol.
