Unless something's changed, the rep gets to pick his partner so I'd imagine that RBY, Bo, and Brooks get to come along for the ride. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goheels1812 614 Report post Posted April 4 Congrats to NLWC. Ill throw a little shoutout to my Tar Heel Wrestling Club too. Kenny Monday had the two wrestlers competing out of Chapel Hill ready to go this weekend. JO won in a tough field and Kilte was right there with Miracle until she got hurt.

You want the best possible training partner to prepare for the tournament of your life. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wrestlingnerd 2,779 Report post Posted April 4 Just now, ShakaAloha said: I think Dake is bringing Gabe or Yianni. Probably, just saying it would be good for him to get a a different look too. That said, whatever he's doing is working ridiculously well so who am I to even have an opinion. Dake did pick Imart when he won his first world title, so there is a little precedent for someone not as familiar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
