This week on the show we talk about Gordon Ryan Vs. Aaron \\u201cTex\\u201d Johnson at Sub Stars, Cyborg Vs. Lovato and most of this stacked card.\\xa0 We recap Submission Underground 11, and preview GrappleFest 8.

In the news section of the show we talk about Leandro Lo now being the 5-division world champ in IBJJF, and Mikey Musumeci having his match with Erberth Santos announced then cancelled. We talk about AOJ splitting from Atos and some marquee BJJ matchups. \\xa0

In the recap section of the show we go deep into the Sub Stars card starting with Gordon Ryan Vs. Tex Johnson we talk about Gordon\\u2019s meta game and how his passing was implemented in the match.\\xa0 We talk about an entry into a leg and heel hook position from Tex and what Gordon did differently than Felipe Pena to avoid the sub and subsequently pass off of the attempt.\\xa0 We also talk about how this finish and set up for the finish is very similar to the pathways that we have seen Gordon travel before when looking for the same sub. \\xa0

We break down Roberto Cyborg Abreu versus Rafael Lovato Jr. that saw Cyborgs wrestling and takedown, and top game on display against the Lovato.\\xa0 We talk about some of the history between these two and this matchup, and how Cyborg has been looking better and better recently at the top of the BJJ game. \\xa0

In our recap of Nick Rodriguez vs Roosevelt Sousa we talk about the development of Nicks passing game, and Maine gives credit to more of the technical pieces that he had overlooked in his back take game.\\xa0 We talk about the position reset and the placement of the arms and legs, that possibly changed and were a point of controversy.\\xa0

In the Luiza Monteiro vs. Maggie Grindatti match we break down the ever-elusive heel hook in the Gi in a pro match.\\xa0 This is one of BJJ unicorn submissions that we rarely ever see as its banned in almost every rule set, we break down how this changes attacks in the gi and why its cool to see. \\xa0

Keeping with the theme of leg locks in the Gi in Fellipe Andrew vs Patrick Gaudio we talk about the quick footlock that saw Fellipe take the win over Gaudio.\\xa0

We also break down the prelim matches including\\xa0 Jasmine Rocha vs Nathalia Santoro, Roberto Jimenez vs Dan Martinez, Nicky Ryan vs JZ Cavalcante looking like a match of Gordons from 2015, Vagner Rocha match and more. \\xa0

In the preview section of the show we take a look at GrappleFest 8 headlined by Adam Wardzinski Vs. Jon \\u201cThor\\u201d Blank for the under 90Kg title. We speculate on how the match will play out and if Thor will be able to get to the legs of Adam or if Adams passing will prove too much.\\xa0 We talk about Tye Ruotolo vs Dante Leon and how exited we are for this matchup. We also talk about Kade Ruotolo\\xa0 vs Ashley Williams and more big matchups on the card.
