Their ranking reflected Nathan's national success, specifically at FILA Nationals and USAW Folkstyle Nationals. At the time of their ranking, they did not know if Geary had ever wrestled him. The subjectivity creeps in when you consider that Will was not in that ASICS/USWA Folkstyle bracket.

To be clear. My rankings are not predictions, they are just rankings. My expectation is that their dual match on January 9th will decide the #1 HWT in Kansas. No matter who wins, it will not surprise me. We have two fantastic heavyweights.
