The March Madness tournament every year at the college level is the most exciting event in sports’ television. When the bracket is finally selected players from across the nation watch the selection show who will get the chance to play in the tournament.

GD: Victor and Elliot are both going to state, but there was a chance that the senior duo of Seth Puisis and John Kelley could join them. But both Puisis and Kelley lost in the final seconds of their matches. That must have been tough to see them get so close and miss by just a few seconds.

Youngest to oldest, lightest to heaviest, the top two wrestlers were announced and would battle face to face for the title. I could hear the roar of the crowd outside as competitive matches came to an end. The tunnel was sweltering and filled with passionate contenders. As I came to the end of the tunnel my dad said, “Go out and give it your all. Win or lose you are still a winner in my heart.” as he stood by my side. His words struck me and lingered in my mind. As time closed in on my turn, nerves kicked in more than ever and I started to get butterflies in my stomach, but I concentrated on my final destination; walking away 'state

The next match that aired was The Dream Team (with Luscious Johnny V and Canadian strong man Dino Bravo) against The Fabulous Rougeaus. Raymond Rougeau started off the match by locking up with Brutus Beefcake. The two men later tagged out, and Greg Valentine brawled with Jacques Rougeau as Bravo looked on from the outside of the ring. Raymond performed a sleeper hold on Valentine and was followed by Beefcake jumping off the ropes and accidentally hitting the Hammer with a double axe handle. The Rougeau Brothers gave Valentine a double team move, but the referee was arguing with Beefcake. The match ended when Dino Bravo jumped off the top rope and hit Raymond while he was pinning Valentine, then rolling Valentine on top of him for the win.[26] The Dream Team argued for most of the match, which led to Greg Valentine and Dino Bravo departing

I finished weighing in and began to warm up. Same routine as always and soon I was up next. Ankle bands on and ball of my foot on the line. A handshake, a whistle, and the match begins. The first takedown came quicker in this match than it did in the last. I tied up, hand fought, and set up my shots. The match was going my way and I wrestled smart through every scramble, keeping the upper hand. It was the third period and I had a decent lead. I got another takedown and turned him to his back. For a second I swear I had him pinned but the referee was not in position to see it until my opponent was able to put a sliver of space between his shoulder and the mat. The third period came to an end and I got my hand raised for the 40th time that

Ever since I was five years old, professional wrestling has always been an escape for me. Growing up, I didn’t have the best childhood in the world, but every Monday and Friday I would turn on Raw and Smackdown. As I became a teenager I discovered there were other wrestling promotions such as; Ring of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling, and Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. Professional wrestling still to this day is something that I cherish.

These men are shown training for their goal, and shown putting in the extra work to make a dream come true. However, one thing that The Contender has that is not found in many other shows, and a reason for its success, is the determination and drive of the competitors.

Around me, I can hear the crowd going wild, calling my name, “ Dylan!! Dylan!! Dylan!!” Billy Lo seems confused about why they aren’t calling his name. We start to circle around the big red ring. It is uncomfortable to walk around the edges of the ring. It is wet from the sweat and tears of the earlier matches. It makes a splish-splosh sound every time you step into a big puddle. You can smell the rotten egg stench of it in the air. Billy Lo makes the first strike to my head but I duck and return it with a punch to the stomach. He is too slow to block it. I can feel the fear that is growing inside of him. I am gaining the upper hand. I can
