Yeah, that was nice. Seems kind of similar to my thought process for the MMA rankings for the Zone.

Should be interesting to see if the current front runners can pull away or if it'll stay close.

Post-Card Analysis by Janus (Ja); Qualitar (Qu) and Dynamo (Dy):
Qa: I don't think anyone saw this coming. If anyone would have told me before this event....heck, before the second round, that it would come down to Cypher having to win the final match, otherwise Ahnu would, I'd never have believed it....
Ja: It's absolutely amazing how it worked out. Ahnu, thanks to getting 3pts from his submission wrestling finisher a couple times in the second round, made a mad dash at the end. What's amazing is that Cypher, who incredibly lost to Hanuman in round one, was therefore able to choose the type of match against the AniMan in the finale.....he of course chose MMA, and won decisively.
Dy: What's more amazing to me is that MMA isn't what got Cypher to the finish line. Because wrestling submissions were worth an extra point, Cypher's ability to end most of his wrestling wins with his CYPHER STRETCH was the difference here.
Ja: And to think that Ahnu could have forced a tie. He had Gunnar locked in his COUNTERINSURGENCY in his final match....and had he been able to keep it on, Gunnar was seconds from tapping out. Instead, Ahnu settles for a pinfall, and loses by one.
Qu: Biggest shocks this weekend?
Ja: A couple. One, Ahnu nearly winning this thing. That guy showed me a ton this weekend. A ton. He's for real. Two, I'm shocked that Euritar and Mensar faltered down the stretch.
Dy: We all figured Cypher would be a threat, but I honestly expected more out of Mensar. A shock for me is how competitive all six of these guys were against each other. Other than Hanuman, the rest of the field was in it until the end.
Qu: And so Cypher is the first POW Undisputed Champion, a distinction he wears until the next Undisputed, which will be later this year. Plus, he gets a title shot against either the Wrestling Heavyweight Champ or the MMA Heavyweight Champ.....is it safe to say he takes his rematch against Shylock for the latter, or does he go after Raze?
Ja: Cypher proved this weekend that he's adept in both wrestling and MMA. If I were him, I'd figure on dominating the MMA field like normal, but to take that wrestling title shot. Raze may be respectable, and a two-time champ, but he's beatable....certainly by Cypher.
Dy: Cypher's heart lies in MMA. I think your logic is sound, but you have to believe he wants to get revenge on Shylock.
Qu: This must be making President Prodigy feel good, Cypher being his President's Pick.
Dy: No doubt. It's obvious he and Hood like to one-up each other, and this one goes to Prodigy. Euritar certainly looked good, but finished third all the same.
Ja: Look, I've made no bones about it before -- Cypher and I go way back and have, most of the time, been friends. I know this guy well. I said back in CPC and I say now with even more certainty -- this is your top dog in the federation.
Qu: I can say without hesitation that this event exceeded my expectations. It came down to the very last match, which is all you can ask for. Kudos to Cypher for winning, kudos to Ahnu for showing the heart of a true underdog.....and kudos to the rest of the field -- gutting out 10 fights in one weekend is the stuff of legend, no matter how you finish.

Cypher is great- I wish he had beaten Shylock for the title.
Ahnu is doing horribly for me.
And I agree with Dynamo: I expected more out of Mensar.
