“It's honestly kind of a surreal experience,” he said. “Especially in my match starting down seven points. Getting thrown to my back was not a very motivating thing, especially in the beginning of that match, but being able to fight my way back to it and then get the win, it felt fantastic. All of my work paying off in the last four years.”
