A, B, C As Easy As 1, 2, 3

Since seeding began in 1940 there have been eight instances where a wrestler has beaten the top 3 seeds in a single tournament.

The first four are old so I will give you those.



Can you name the fantastic four who have done it since the turn of the century?

Vito wrestled like a man on fire that tournament. Too bad injuries have really slowed him down since then.

How about a negotiation. We’ll submit to you Tyler Kasak in ‘24 and if you give us the rest we’ll give you the guy who beat 5 single digit seeds

Fine. But what about the OTHER four guys who beat five single digit seeds?

And do we have the same friend?

We don’t know the other 4 without deep diving. That’s what we were asking you for.
The guy who beat 5 is Quisel.

Ahhh, a pox upon me for a lout. I missed that.

While Quisel was not the first, he was the only one in the group who beat five of the guys seeded to AA. Everyone else had to sprinkle a #9 seed in there for good measure.

But my favorite is Gary McCall. In addition to being the first, and one of the guys who took down two #1's, he did it in the same tournie, and as part of knocking off five single digit seeds. That man had his work cut out for him.

@AtownPoke I just re-read your message and realized you were looking for the guys who took down four in one mighty tournament.

That is a longer list. Forty-eight in total.

After that, I thought he was going to win several world championships for sure.
