FloWrestler of the Week: Kyle Dake, Finger Lakes WC
He’s back! Kyle Dake is back on the mat and looking pretty slick.

Kid Dynamite made his first appearance after being sidelined by an unfortunate injury to take home the Northeast Regional title this weekend. Dake took out Mason Manville in the semifinals with ease before take a forfeit in the final.

             

He cleared out the field pretty quickly and didn’t show any signs that he was the least bit rusty. It’s safe to say that KD is on a mission once again this weekend proved it.

It is his amazing performance in his first tournament back that makes Dake the FloWrestler of the Week.
