If Vince McMahon is involved there is a good chance my tables will be used at this event.. I made the WWE 2 tables a few years ago... Would be pretty cool to see my tables at a major event... ;D Hey, Vic, Vince is not involved...Nick told me that he used to wrestle for WWF...He did not tell me that Vince was supporting him in this event !!!

Amadeo, don't single me out. There aren't more than a handful of people in the world that would put that kind of money up to challenge John and I know I am not yet one of them.
In fact, I have a long way to go.
If you have a 200 pound weight class, you can count me in.

I am not picking on you...Actually, all the armwrestlers that I know don't want none of Jonny B....Just wanted to get your attention... My opinion is that you James have excelled more that anybody else that I know in the recent years, except maybe my boy Chris Myers...So all the props go out to you my friend... Look forward to seeing you on Nov 12 and 13 James

Amedeo, What happened to the 210 idea? Any chance of making it at least a 205 class?

The story has changed all ready?
Ok, now you have me confused. What is going to happen to all those 100 plus pre entries that had thought it was just one open class for 5000 dollars…a refund? And why would anyone care if the real arm wrestling public showed up…Or if I could or couldn’t pull a certain weight class …does he know me? Or did you work out this great deal for me?
Don’t worry Travis…you can have this one all to yourself. I think I’ll skip NYC.
Travis I can honestly tell you….You will be in no condition to pull after I bang on that overly plumped arm of yours.

DEAR JOHN, OFCOURSE YOU COULD PULL ANY WEIGHT CLASS YOU CHOOSE, AS LONG AS YOU WEIGHT ACCORDINGLY...
I WAS JUST JOKING WHEN I SAID YOU COULD ONLY PULL SUPERHEAVYWEIGHT...IF YOU COULD GET UNDER 200LBS, THEN THAT'S WHERE YOU WILL BE, AT MIDDLEWEIGHT.
THIS GUY NICK, THE PROMOTER, DOES NOT KNOW YOU, HAS NEVER HEARD ABOUT YOU, DOES NOT KNOW YOUR REPUTATION, BUT I TOLD HIM HOW GREAT YOU WERE AND HOW KNOWN YOU ARE IN THE ARMWRESTLING WORLD...
ANDREW "COBRA" RHODES WILL BE IN CONTACT WITH NICK AND SEE IF HE COULD ADD ANY CREDIBILITY TO THIS EVENT...BECAUSE YOU DEFINATELY SEEM SKEPTICAL AND DON'T BELIEVE THIS WILL BE REAL...I FOR ONE HAVE DOUBTS MYSELF, BUT THIS PROMOTER IS REALLY INVOLVED IN THE ENTERTAINMENT WORLD AND MAYBE WITH THE RIGHT PROMOTION HE COULD HAVE A SUCCESSFUL EVENT...
THE PROMOTER WILL SHOOT A 30 SECOND ADVERTISEMENT FOR THIS ARMWRESTLING EVENT THIS COMING MONDAY WHEN HE RETURNS FROM MICHIGAN WHERE HE IS GOING TO PROMOTE IT TOGETHER WITH DAN "THE BEAST" SEVERN OF THE UFC !!!
I HAVE INVITED CHRIS MYERS TO BE INVOLVED IN THE SHOOTING OF THE AD...I HOPE IT TURNS OUT WELL....
I ALSO HAVE PICTURES OF THE SHIRTS THAT HE HAS MADE, AND THEY WILL BE ON THIS SITE AS SOON AS KURT UPLOADS THEM....

With the 3 weight classes is the entry fee still $275.00? Is this right hand only? Why is it a 2 day tourney?

I'm with ya Vic. It looks like I'll be in NY twice that week. At the Empire State Finals and at this event. If Jacob, Selearis, and Myers are going to be in my class, it looks like I have a lot of training to do. I understand how John is skeptical too. I am very skeptical. If it is on the "up and square," as my buddy Popeye always says, than I am all for a tournament like this. I have voiced my concerns already about the admission fee for people that want watch armwrestling. We participate in a sport that has to be introduced to people and you cannot do that by charging them what it costs to get decent seats at Yankee Stadium. BTW love the plumped arm bit Oh and Jim Bryan, why don't you start eating some grilled chicken, you might make 200 by then. lol
