The match will be a best of three series on August 17th. The winner will represent the United States at 79 KG at the World Championships in Kazakhstan.
This comes with some added controversy as Kyle Dake requested a last minute delay on the initial wrestle-off at Final X a few weeks ago and is now competing in Spain this upcoming weekend.
