All the Joe talk about whether he should go 165 or 174 got me thinking...doesn't he have one of the coolest 'motions' in neutral? Anybody have some favorites - current or past?
One of the fascinating things to me about wrestling is how varied the stances & motions are. It's kinda like batting stances and bat movement in baseball - they all look different, but end up the same when the bat reaches the hitting zone.
There's closed leg vs lead leg, yes. But then there's the frantic hands & feet guys, the relaxed guys, the bull rushers, the plodders, the slow stalkers, etc. Joe's style looks almost European - he seems very relaxed. But he also seems to sway from side to side and level change a lot also. He's one of my favorites to watch.
