5 events for the finals doesn't make sense to me, it seems like a way of favoring one athlete depending on the events you pick. If you have a yoke and deadlift, you favor Hooper, if you have stones (which always is) and keg toss, you favor Stoltman. Reducing events goes against what Brian was saying, you need more events to actually determine who's the strongest.

I think that they meant 5 events for the heats instead seeing as the stone off has been removed. Because the finals is still over 2 days so I assume 6 for the final. 5 for the final would be awful, think 2019 and 5 events which too me always has an asterisk over it. Should be 7 events for the final I reckon

I hate the stone off. The worst example I can think off is that time Trey vs Novikov a year, Novikov was leading by way more points than 1 event win would be. I would like the OSG format, everyone vs everyone, cut the worst then move on. Would be equal for all. Not someone being destroyed like Brian was his last year by Rauno not giving him a easy fight on stones.
@simenandersen3262
@simenandersen3262 2 дня назад
Craziest example is 2019. When Ole Martin Kristiansen only had 7 points and was out of the comp. But the third place guy couldn't do a single rep. So WSM brought Ole Martin back in. So J. Caron with 17 points had to go stone-off against Ole with 7 points 😆

lol that's what I was thinking. Fewer athletes which sucks. AGAIN in the US which sucks, fewer events which... (you guessed it) sucks. The no rest day is a mixed bag. It's really bad news for the athletes but is probably better for the live fans present. Perhaps they're doing that specifically to try and cater to the live audience? This also makes me skeptical that they're actually going to remove the stone-off. When have we known wsm to make a good decision that the fans have been calling for? 🤔 I'm doubtful, have to wait a few more months and see!

Scrap the heats and have a cut after day two, top ten go through. It's the only way to truly determine the top ten best in the world. They can then battle it out for the podium. I don't think removing the rest day is a good idea. Could potentially increase the risk of injuries. Getting rid of the stone off is a great move though. Come on PPV now!

Next change they need is that the TOP TEN from ALL heat groups should advance, not the top 2 from each groups, because sometimes the scores are way off.

All this will do is cause lifts in the final to drop. Say we see a max deadlift or log, you won't see the same numbers. 4 days in a row in incredibly hot climate when you're in a competition setting. I can't see this being a positive. It seems like an effort to reduce overheads more than to improve the competition. Stone off going though is brilliant.

Would agree with it all if they kept the rest day. 2 solid days for heats, 1 day of recovery, 2 solid days for finals Without the rest/recovery i think the finals will be underwhelming Theres an argument for splitting the comp in two, heats and finals as two seperate events.

it would be amazing to see World's Strongest Man run as a four-day final format. By removing the group stage and allowing every athlete to compete across all four days, each competitor would have a real shot at the title, and we’d see 100% effort right from the start. Not to mention, all athletes would be tested in all disciplines and there would be no hiding. A final with only 5 events at this level is not enough to determine the “Worlds Strongest Man”.

Two ideas right off the bat: WSM is losing money, so they're reducing overhead with athlete travel and cost, and no rest days is one less day to account for expenses, which sounds likely because they don't know how to grow the sport. Money-hungry people ironically keep themselves in the dumps thinking of ways to siphon money off, instead of growing it the right way and making more money anyway. OR WSM is trying to be like Crossfit to grow the sport, which would be horrible, using Rogue as a gauge for how it looks.

A few random people they rounded up to watch in Africa are better strongman crowds than in Britain where they pack out multiple arenas every year, OK matey.

WSM saving all that money by condensing everything and working the athletes harder. But bet your bottom dollar that athletes won't see any of that savings in their pocket LOL

idk guys, you say that the title WSM matters more than who is actually stronger (in a round about way). I think that WSM is more of a "made-for-TV" spectacle more than it is for finding the strongest man in the world. Rogue and SMOE Shaw Classic, are far more suited to find the strongest man in the world RN than WSM has ever been. I disagree that perception outside of the sport matters more when it comes to the titles than the actual strength of the athlete. And you are right, the people in the community know better. But that is entirely the point. The fans know Zydrunas was better than Mariusz. The fans know that IFSA had a better line up than WSM. WSM hurts themselves more than help when it comes to the way they run the event and the NON-televised nature of it even though they still run it like a TV show. Then after everyone knows who won and has seen clips and behind the scenes and all that, 6 months later they release the show to the public for a fee. then a year later they make it free. WSM is losing steam as a show that actually picks the strongest man in the world and and is looking more and more like an athletic meet than a strongman show year after year. I dont even really care to watch WSM anymore. Id rather watch SMOE, Rogue, the Arnold strongman classic, giants live and other smaller shows. WSM just doesnt entertain me as much as it used to.

I suppose i should also say that i dont think the show is EASY by any means. and I dont think that its not a legit show for really strong guys to compete at. I just dont think its actually picking the strongest man as much as the strongest AND most athletic. Its not pushing the limits of human capability like it once did.

I'd say they should poll the athletes and poll the fans each year. If that results in a different competition format every year, to me, that feels exciting the same way it was in the 80's when the events were lawless, the equipment was unwieldy and the athletes were all tasked with showing up to god knows what. I get that we want to give them time to prepare and I agree. I also think one mystery event each year would be really fun for athletes and competitors.

That's just asking for someone to get hurt. You can't ask guys with ridiculous strength to tackle a hard event without any knowledge at all. Look at the bad bad injuries back in the 80's (franco comes to mind) it's now a recognised sport vs just a gimmick TV show.

More events is more fair. 5 events is just another way WSM can show favortism (like they did with the stone off and who got placed in what heats with what events).

Less athletes and no rest day seems like a big negative. Sounds like they aren't making as much money from the tv side as they want, so they're trying to cut costs somehow.

@@Harry_lifts yup. With 5 events they'll basically give the title to Tom or Hooper depending on the events. Hey Tom! Here's your title because it's viking press, fingal's fingers, bag toss, deadlift for reps and atlas stones. . Or, hey Mitch! We got you the title! Yoke, max deadlift, apollon's axle, bus pull and atlas stones!

@@simenandersen3262 There’s always other people in these events and Tom manages to have a real bad event almost every show and loses a ton of points with a 5th or worse. Not so for Hooper and other than stones he has a legit chance to beat Tom or come second in any event. People seem to hate it, but Hooper has won a competition without winning any single event. Consistency is king. Having said that I can’t see Hooper keeping his streak of wins going, but it will be very hard to end his podium streak.

@@polarbear4612 in one-day shows yes. But in the WSM people are so exausted in the final that Tom is top 3 in every event. Tom didn't win a single event in 2022 and 2024 except for the stones. And still won comfortably. Even his massive achilles' heel Conan's Wheel he got 3rd place.

If you want a stone off type thing just do a medley of everything. A loading race to fill a yoke and then carry that to a log and deadlift medley. I think that covers pretty much everything

Thanks for the information Lalas Brothers. I went to the WSM 2023 contest. Love to go have it again there in Myrtle Beach or another east coast city like Jacksonville Florida or Virginia Beach, Virginia. The crouch has been much bigger the past two years in SC compared to the previous two years in CA. They don’t need smaller crowds and hotter weather like it was in CA compared to SC. Having 4 days instead was 5 does help the fans financially and I am sure it does the same for them paying for the space. Good business move. They may look for a spot where they can hold WSM indoors and have an expo with it would be the best option in my opinion. You can have more vendors and not be that concerned about the weather. If Arnold and Brian can have an expo why can’t WSM???

Like i said in the video, WSM is more like a TV show than normal competition. Seems like IMG (production company) wants to keep it that way.
