Very popular to fade a previous tournament Finalist who has to make a quick turnaround, especially with the Slam coming up so quickly after. Price would reflect that books think ERV is going to tank it or have nothing left in his tank to put forth a good match. He could just withdraw prior to the match if he needs the rest, but we've seen it time and time again where guys will show up for the paycheck and bend over and clutch their ankles to take the ramrod up the arse.

BTW .. Dolgopolov has hired Fabrice Santoro as a coach ... that is fukkin Magical.
