'26 Senior World Championships (10/24-11/1) thread

Sheriev looks to be yet another incredibly skilled Russian at 74. Would like to see mssr Messenbrink get a crack at him.

 

[Nightking]

Was Manning coaching Green?

 

[nerfstate]

Spencer and then done until 7am

Basch has Levi’s big match up vs Khaniev in about 20min now. It had previously been 7:30, and I got excited about the sleep window.

He beat Sidakov to make the team

 

[vhsalum]

Columbia U’s finest just win a 21-18 match over on mat A.

Worth the rewind while we wait for Spencer.

 

[nerfstate]

He beat Sidakov to make the team

Ho hum, nbd….

 

[Psalm 1 guy]

Basch added RBY to his list of upcoming bouts. RBY is up in three matches on mat B.

 

[pish69]

Basch site has RBY, Spencer, Levi back to back to back on B after the match going on now

Trent might be going at the same time as one of them on Mat D

 

[mvattivo]

You could tell early that match was going to be short work for RBY

 

[LemonPie]

I believe the quarterfinals get the fanfare. They won’t start until the round of 16 is completely finished and then they wrestle one weight at a time. Shouldn’t be a conflict

 

[Corby2]

Green is in a tough spot he would need to win two repechage matches before he made the bronze match and his 2nd would be Baby Yaz. That's if the Russian beats Baby Yaz in the 1/4 if not Green is eliminated

 

[mvattivo]

Great job, Spencer!

Yeah, I'm not expecting us to get anything at that weight.

 

[nerfstate]

I’ve seen just one match, but something tells me Sheriev isn’t losing to baby Yaz

 

[LemonPie]

Levi and Spencer with huge team race implications this round. Gotta think we need both with the James Green result.

 

[Corby2]

Yeah, I'm not expecting us to get anything at that weight.

We need to beat Russia at 57 if not the guy who beats him (he's up now) and Levi needs to beat Khaniev in the 1/4 in 10 minutes

 

[Corby2]

Quarters are starting now

 

[Corby2]

Levi up 8-1 with 1 min left

 

[vhsalum]

Levi is so gottamm strong…

8-1

 

[LemonPie]

Levi!!! He’s such a beast. Khaniev met him in the handfight, but got absolutely bullied in scrambles.

 

[Fan16801]

The heaviest of hips.

 

[pish69]

Levi “Bully” Haines!

 

[mvattivo]

That was an absolutely incredible match by Levi! Khaniev is legit. Levi's defense and hips are just insane. That was so damn impressive!

 

[nerfstate]

Hell yeah! I was worried after Khaniev took ground so easily early but Levi just dominated the scoring situations.

 

[pawrstlersinpa]

Phenomenal defense from Levi. Dead to rights at least twice, and he puts the points on the board.

 

[Psalm 1 guy]

I think that was the best match so far for Levi on the Senior circuit. He is really elevating his wrestling.

 

[Ernie Ladd]

Levi always brings his hips to the party.

 

[mvattivo]

Good job, Trent. That one worried me for a moment, but, he did what he had to do.

 

[vhsalum]

Trent is a much smarter wrestler than people give him credit for.

Getting that push out from grounded was a master class.

With the new rules underhook guys are doing well

 

[mvattivo]

What time are semi-finals?

 

[Corby2]

What time are semi-finals?

730 ET

 

[Fan16801]

Green still eligible for repechage.

 

[Fan16801]

Spencer with the tech over the Russia 11-0.

 

[vhsalum]

See yall in an hour! Nappy time

 

[Psalm 1 guy]

RBY won with a last second TD.

 

[Corby2]

See yall in an hour! Nappy time

1 hour come on get tough

 

[Psalm 1 guy]

1 hour come on get tough

This West coast boy is going to bed!

I just finished watching all the semis and medal matches and I am sure my deciding to get a good night's rest was the deciding factor in that dominant U.S.A. and Mexico performance! It is such a pleasure to be able to watch the U.S. wrestlers nowadays.

 

[Misalorales]

Been kinda nice to be able to read through this and see what all happened while I'm waiting for sunrise in the archery blind. Y'all are crazy for being up consistently all week to watch these, but thank you to everyone commenting and providing updates and context.
