***"American Studd" John Cochrane received a bye when he allegedly bought off his first round opponent.
Other notes: Because "No Gimmicks Needed" Justin Ebner was the other finalist in this tournament, he won the PAW United States Title.
Also, because Cochrane & "Farm Boy" Chris Ascherl were the two semi-finalists, they wrestled for the PAW Canadian Championship, which Cochrane won.
