russelscout 1,032 Report post Posted July 14 (edited) I'm sorry. I want to support the guy, but every time he opens his mouth or posts something its sooooo cringey. He got a spot this year but should be grateful. I'm sure he worked hard, but people dont hate him because of his wrestling. They hate him because he comes off like a tool Edited July 14 by russelscout 2 OBXWrestler and Perry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ohcomeon 57 Report post Posted July 14 As far as cringey goes, this isn't top 20 for PD3. Still, I can't help but root for the guy. I'd prefer this to another cheesy, cliche comment about how the win wasn't in Gods plan like we'd get from the other world team members. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought the post above was pretty tame by PD3 standards. Would be nice if he could spell, but I don’t have much of a problem with what he says most of the time. 1 jsmalls131313 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leshismore 179 Report post Posted July 14 Sorry. His ignorance is simply painful. I know there is anti intellectualism in the US.... But to constantly showboat your lack of simple knowledge and understanding only works on those who embrace the emotional and are intimidated by factual realities. 3 nhs67, scribe and russelscout reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spladle08 559 Report post Posted July 14 Yeah hes trying to keep his "Brand" up... I'm sure hes not that way around JB/Cox/Ringer/Snyder.... that said... its hard to come at the "haters" when you go 0-2 vs fairly tame competition. The weight is pretty stacked with "tough" guys. Yazdani is the clear cut favorite but theres about 5 or 6 really solid guys here. I cant see a situation where he ends up on the podium unfortunately. But miracles happen!!! Go USA .
