NBC Slapped Wrestling in the Face
August 20, 2016

 


What began with the elation of an American woman making history in her sport ended in disappointment with NBC telling us how little it mattered.

The wrestling community reacted en masse when the reign of 16-time world champion and Olympic medalist Saori Yoshida, a living legend and pioneer in the sport, came to an end at the hands of 24-year-old American Helen Maroulis.

The response from NBC? Hardly a peep.
