I’m back on the Dream’s Not Fame Podcast with fresh wins and big news that’s got the DMV Jiu-Jitsu scene fired up. 💥

Fresh off a blazing 27-second win ⏱️ at the Great American Bash, I’m diving into the high-stakes matchups set for the upcoming NGA King of the Pit tournament 👑. This time, I’m stepping into the pit—not as a commentator—but as a competitor 🥋, going head-to-head with Reggie Hands, Trayvon Martin, Nicholas Willey, Brian Guevara, and Christian Banghart. It’s a stacked six-man bracket full of power, precision, and pit-worthy intensity ⚔️.

The women’s division is just as electric ⚡. The Grown-Ass Women Club is back with a new set of fighters in the Women’s Trios tournament against tough squads like the Powerpuff Girls, Beltway Bandits, and more. I’m also hyped to announce special guest commentators Sai'dah and Alex, who’ll bring expert analysis and much-deserved spotlight to the women’s division 👑.

But this episode isn’t just about what’s happening on the mats—it’s about the community 💯. Shoutout to our amazing sponsors Nova Barbell 🏋️‍♂️ and Asim (aka the “Switzerland” of lifting) 🌍 for showing love to athletes across all affiliations and keeping the culture strong.

And don’t sleep on October 🗓️—ADCC Pans is heading back to New York 🗽, and my team and I are already locked in and planning our run.

Whether you're a competitor, fan, or just curious about what’s going down in DMV Jiu-Jitsu, this episode brings the perfect mix of tournament hype, community vibes, and the kind of passion that keeps us all rolling. 🌀
