Throw Perez and Shumate in the mix.
Shumate because he has desire to bump weights to see a quality competitor and doesn't dodge opponents. He bumped from 103 to 112 to wrestle Perez at the Topeka Invite and a chance to wrestle Perez/Metzler at the BVNW tourney.
Perez because his only loss was to Shumate, a match he wanted at the Topeka Invite, to avenge that loss the next weekend at BVNW and a chance at Metzler in the finals (did not happen because of injury def.).
Both wrestlers are having excellent seasons and the humbleness they displayed in both of their matches (both in the wins and losses) not only put them up there because of the seasons they are having, but also because they showed a fire during their matches to let it all hang out. There was no second guessing after each match who the better wrestler was at that time.
With their level of ability, both realize that a win today might mean a loss tomorrow, they are that close.
