Because he stands out amongst 30 other wrestlers, you can tell with two but with 30?”

Hinchcliffe further claimed, “He comes in, and he is flying. He is faster than the other people, he is stronger than the other people.

He just got to the hoop in two steps and that is what he is doing in the wrestling ring.
