    Awesome match

    Hopefully in 2016 we'll see both Varner and Reader on the stand.

    Varner isn't done competing I don't think. He made $250,000 plus any other support and donations with that win and the Nittany Lion Wrestling Club has a lot of money to throw around. I expect he'll continue to compete through Rio in 2016 before coaching.

    Awesome to have another Cyclone bring home a gold. Did any of you guys see his semi match? That was a close one. But this shot is awesome:
    "Blamo"! The new CF approved swear word.

    That Grab Ball is a total joke. Jake was very fortunate to have the blue ball pulled from the bag or he probably wouldn't have won that period.
