Below are the contest standings after night 13 headlined by Hikuleo vs. Shota Umino. The A Block concluded today with SANADA finishing with a perfect block record and Hikuleo advancing as the runner-up to the elimination round. In the listener contest, Jeremy Finestone held on to his 3-point lead and is becoming increasingly tough to unseat as we head into the block finals. With 12 block matches to go, any contest participants with 57 points or less as of today are mathematically eliminated from winning the contest.
The finish in the POST Wrestling Family block is as close as the race for runner-up in the A Block. Brandon Thurston has very quietly ascended to first place and is now tied with John Kleinchester at 59 points. Both men are three points ahead of the four-way log-jam for second at 56 points so, unless a disastrous series of predictions unseats them, the battle looks to be between Thurston and Kleinchester for the E Block.
