Wow , the wrestling Steve displayed was great , 1 the mental focus to stay in that match 2 the adjustments that was made in the match ( optional start , the switching sides on top ) 3 yes tony Davis the confidence ( the take down right before the pin, and finding the way to get his best move the cradle ) so yes I would say he is the greatest twister ever .

The most naturally gifted wrestler I’d ever seen and a great teammate. At 103, I was first up at dual meets and Steve would always grab me and get me fired up right before I walked out onto the mat. He was also one of the funniest guys on the team. I miss him.
