Default No international wrestling for me

Ok, I'll admit it.

I find it very difficult to get excited about international freestyle and greco wrestling.

It's like watching arena football instead of the NFL.

It will do in a dry spell, but it ain't the same.

I enjoy watching the trials for freestyle, because I know a lot of the wrestlers. Many of them were former college standouts that I enjoyed watching during their collegiate careers and a few were the straight outta high school types like Henry Cejudo and Harry Lester.

I don't enjoy watching against other countries as much because it's hard to get information on the other wrestlers from other countries. I mean you know someone is good if they're beating Lincoln McLravy, but on the same hand, it'd be fun to know a little information on them and such.

I suppose I'm weird as well. I can fall asleep watching a basketball game but I'm almost always alert for a wrestling match.
