I have to think that with everything that was going on with Blaze at Nationals, his performance there was an anomaly.
I agree and am picking Blaze but I wouldn’t be that surprised if Jax just wins 2 straight. It really is just an unknown and the most interesting match of Final X. Jax has jumped multiple levels since last year. I think Blaze has as well but it hasn’t been as obvious as Jax. Such a fun matchup. The best point scoring dynamo vs the best defense in the game. Very similar to DT vs Dake. I know it’s the easy comp but it’s also probably the best comp

I'm kind of giggly that they juxtaposed a Pan-Am championship and a World championship like they anything close to equivalent.
It pains me to mention, but Zain famously did not win a Pan Am Championship that one time…

I’m looking forward to this match. No doubt in my mind that a 100% Zain is better suited vs the field at Worlds, but not sure if he’ll approach 100% or not, and Ridge is an exciting and unpredictable opponent.

WOW. The Penn State NLWC is dominating the qualifiers here at Final X. Hopefully have a Great crowd on June 19th.
