I'm an absolute nobody in the pulling world and I may stay that way until I die, but watching Justin's performance yesterday makes ME want to train that much harder.
THAT my friends... is the ripple effect.

The Euro/World crowd never takes our boys seriously...
...until one of them gets sent to the B-side or flash pinned and sent packing. ;-)

The kid is built for armwrestling. There's no question. His forearm and hand are insane. Attachments:

And that kid DID pin Devon.
You're right, fresh for fresh on THIS day I think would have been a much closer match. Oleg ran out of gas. Brilliant showing for the youngster.

No nut swinging, no ass kissing... just respect and appreciation for the performance in Vegas. That was impressive, brotha.
I lived in Tuscaloosa for a couple years, so I got that 'Bama pride still. ;-)

I'm not saying he didn't use steroids. I don't know if you guys know, but he no longer eats meat... Exactly. I don't know if the guy had "the juice" running in his veins 24/7 or not. But not only has he stopped eating meat, but the guys main focus since taking his hiatus from AW competition has been the Olympic bobsledding thing. He needs to be lean and FAST for that. That's almost a complete 180° from being huge and bulky for super heavyweight armwrestling where the main focus is up top. It's not that hard to put weight on unless you're an ectomorph. I did a 90 day program at home and put 30lbs on, no problem. 168 to 198. I wouldn't even know WHERE to buy 'roids or let alone afford them. It's called lifting your ass off and eating like it's your job. Only supplements I took where Creatine, Whey, and a recovery formula. (Caveat: this has only helped my pulling, marginally. D'oh! Doesn't replace table time.) Attachments:

Will we be able to view this on an iPhone or tablet? Good question!!! Is the video feed going to be Flash video or will it be HTML5 based so modern smartphones and tablets can watch the feed via their browser? Thanks.

...I think Travis is smart enough to take down MT which is what I was dying to see ... Plus u know once MT dropped below the table Travis would talk an unreal amount of S*** during the match yelling at him to stand up and pull and what not... Lol that's entertaining as hell!!! ^^^This^^^

Conspiracy theory:
This was a damn good matchup. I'm not sure Mike could stop Travis's hit. Maybe he could. Having said that, I think Mike was ready to lay it all on the line and let the arm break if need be to take that money home and prove he's the best.
So what would stop this from happening? A fat contract from the UAL. It keeps Mike pulling for Robert and if he ever does get injured, he's covered under contract and not some $50,000 super match payday. I don't really think this is necessarily an unreasonable theory either.
Make no mistake, I wanted to see this match and I love the UAL, so there's no hate or nut swinging in anything I've said. I still want to see this match happen. Maybe now it will just be within the confines of the UAL. Who knows.
