McRib is injury prone or doesn't like going in pain...how many matches did he wrestle last year? How many so far this year? He has a total of 30 matches wrestled in three years. If he could have wrestled if the dual was on the line, then he was good enough to go against Brooks...especially with a 20 day break in between now and Midlands.
Papa McRib talks about McRib sticking this guy or that guy but he only has five pins over the last 30 matches, one TF (no backs), and two majors...all of this against largely subpar competition.
His best wins were against Haught (2X), Wellington and Rotert who was one unfinished duck from losing against Wilcke in our dual against them. Let's face it, 197 was not tough once you got past a few guys. He had no top 5 wins and was majored twice against Pfarr (who Brooks beat btw). Pfarr has had greater success after his move up out of 184.
The only reason he gets talked about is because he and his Daddy are Twitter "personalities." They talk a bunch of junk but after looking at his record against even subpar guys, he just doesn't score points. Beat Dean? Gabe Dean will eat both him and his Daddy's lunch.
BTW JB, you may know a different side but he brings this on himself. He and his Dad are amusing...and it should serve them well in whatever third rate MMA league he makes the jump to for four or five matches before he retires. Dude can't play in pain. You might think he is "getting our goat" but both are kind of weak...hell, Statue Dan Gable ate his lunch on Twitter.
