Zain Rethford and Yianni Diakomihalis wrestled for the 65-kilogram world team spot at Final X: Rutgers. Zain was declared the winner, but, after a protest, an independent arbitrator decided otherwise. As such, this Tuesday, we will have one --and possibly two-- more matches between two giants of American wrestling to decide the final Team USA spot for the UWW Senior World Championship in Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan.
