Sorenson was not pinned. Not that it probably matters

the camera was right there. Plain as day. Not even close. He was almost certainly gooing to lose down by as much as he was, but check the video. It wasn't even close. That ref should be done.

I just watched it another dozen times and maybe I'm crazy but it's not close. He was not stuck. Whatever. We all agree he most likely couldn't come back down 6 but that call I still claim was very clearly wrong

He was stuck.
Although I don't believe BS had a chance to win that match, particularly given he would have been down 5-0 against a guy like Zain, how did you see that as a fall? I'm not criticizing you as I can't say for sure what the right answer is yet there was certainly a gap between right shoulder blade and mat. He may have gotten the fall eventually anyway but I didn't see it.

This matters why? o_O
 
Even though I'm a Hawk fan that definitely looked like a fall to me. Don't think it would have mattered anyway as Zain was on a mission.
 
Brooks match with Nickal was the one I was surprised with. Looked like Sammy was gonna wiggle free and next thing the ref's slapping the mat. I haven't gone back to review though.

I was even more surprised that Sammy attempted to go upper body with Nickal.......really thought he would wrestle a smarter match this time around

What in sammy's 4years would make you think he's going to do that? The guy doesn't think things through that way he just goes and well sometimes it costs him big

Not sure Sammy really wanted to go upper body there. I think he lost the hand fighting and found himself in a "oh shit" position and did the best he could. Right before the match, I turned to my wife and said "we can't take a shot, and we can't go upper body. how do we do this".

Bo Nickal is just a crazy good pinner. Dean may not get that 3rd title.
