STATE COLLEGE, PA • Real American Freestyle came into State College this past Saturday night with a great deal of momentum, and by the time the second-ever event concluded, it was clear that the league has been able to draw in their fans with an ability to bring in top wrestlers for incredible matchups, and provide a consistent schedule that maintains that very interest and keeps those RAF belts moving around.
From hand fights and to open shots, to reattacks and go-behinds, to double legs and single legs, to feet-to-back four pointers and take downs to gut transitions, step outs and edge-of-the-mat mastery, to criteria wins and criteria losses, incredible defense and activity clock moments, to early starts and some very late finishes, whatever the moment, RAF has been able to provide it all.
Now, in addition to all the wrestling action, add to it FOX’s commitment with live events on its subsidiary, FOX Nation, and RAF has all it needs to keep its brand moving forward.
Below are the results from RAF 02; however, RAF 03 is coming to Chicago on November 29th. And, with this being a Midwest location, it should be exciting to see what this card draws in the form of competition.
