ESPN reporter’s perspective unfolded

In a recent tweet by NCAA Wrestling, it was captioned as, “WHAT. A. WEEKEND. In your opinion, what was the biggest upset -or- wild performance you saw?” While week one was a mere sneak peek into the sheer insanity college wrestling fans witnessed, Week 2 was just an avalanche of failures as more than 60 wrestlers defeated higher-ranking opponents, marking one of the wildest weeks. 

In the same tweet by NCAA Wrestling, Shane Sparks commented, “Let me repeat, everyone is beatable. One more time for the people in the back… Everyone is beatable. It’s hard to win wrestling matches. ” The ESPN reporter shared his perspective that everything is possible and even the greatest of the wrestlers are beatable. He unfurled the inherent difficulty that the game holds, which is true because you need to possess great skill to even fathom making it to the top. To consistently sustain your spot at the top is even harder.

In Addition to this, Shane throws light on the fact that the wrestling world is full of surprises and unexpected turns. Although top-ranking contenders pour heart and sweat to make it to sustain their top spot, sometimes they can also get replaced by some of the lower-ranking wrestlers. While some of the wrestlers were defeated, many of them emerged victorious in the Wrestling world.
