There are friendly rivalries, and then there's bad blood. Mitch Moore and Jason Renteria may not have wrestled many times, but that hasn't stopped them from taking their rivalry off the mat and onto Twitter.

At the Walsh Jesuit Ironman in 2014, St. Paris Graham's Moore took out Oak Park-River Forest's Renteria, a Nebraska commit, in the 113-pound finals. An early ankle pick and nearfall off a scramble set Moore, a Virginia Tech commit, apart in 2014. Their paths on the mat haven't crossed since, but a 2016 Who's #1 discussion on Twitter in September renewed their rivalry.



Cadet World champion Kurt McHenry is excited for this one as well:


Heading into the 2016 Ironman, Moore and Renteria are seeded first and second respectively at 132 pounds, setting the stage for another potential finals showdown on Saturday night if both wrestlers advance. The tournament gets going today 1 PM ET. Watch it all go down live on FloWrestling this weekend.
