The first round continues with two big boys who know how to hit hard. Today, we settle whether it is more important to stay hyped or to bolieve in one's self.
Jonah’s #4 Bo Dallas vs. Joe’s #5 Mojo Rawley
Jonah: This is a fun matchup. I would have taken Mojo in the next round, he’s a big guy who has the football background for athleticism. You have to assume this would make him able to at least throw some good punches. Bo Dallas is a lot tougher than his booking would have you bolieve. He’s a big guy who doesn’t have show muscles, but is very strong. He also was back wrestling four months after suffering a lacerated kidney, he’s tough as nails. Mojo has the size and athleticism, but I think Dallas could withstand an early flurry and let Mojo gas himself out to win.
Joe: Uh, Jonah, apparently you’ve forgotten that Mojo Rawley does not get hyped. He STAYS hyped. You’d have better luck gassing out a Tesla. But I do think this is a bad matchup for Bo and a pretty good shot at the upset for Rawley. He’s bigger and a better athlete. Bo does have an amateur wrestling background, but he only qualified for state, in Florida, which ain’t exactly a hotbed for talent. Meanwhile, Mojo was getting D-I scholarship offers and punting balls 76 yards. And with Mojo’s personality, he has definitely gotten in some wild brawls in his day. I just think Mojo brings a little too much fire and fury for Bo to handle.
Jonah: I don’t know, I think Mojo’s hype meter has gone away since he’s a heel now and he trains with football player Jay Cutler. Bo’s a tough son of a gun, and if the fight is close he can always turn off the lights using Wyatt Family powers.
Joe: Why is Bo Dallas tough? Also, as far as I can tell, Bo Dallas has no affiliation with the Wyatt Family. He didn’t even wrestle against them in NXT. Where is this strange statement coming from? If he doesn’t have that, I don’t think he’s going to overcome the significant size and athleticism advantage that Mojo has.
Jonah: Bo Dallas is tough because he pretty much no sold a lacerated kidney. He came back in John Cena time from a serious injury. Mojo might also tire himself out between rounds with his constant thrusting. I honestly think this is pretty much a coin flip that could go either way, so you can choose. Also, Dallas has Wyatt powers and IRS powers.
Joe: Well, I decided to see how impressive it was for Bo Dallas to recover from a lacerated kidney in four months, and it turns out that it’s not impressive at all. The expected recovery time is six weeks, it takes him about three times as long to recover from something as an average human being. With that argument out of the way, Mojo hypes his way to the second round of this tournament through sheer volume of punches.
Jonah: Uggghhh fine, but I want it in the rules that Mojo has to thrust between rounds.
