It’s pretty obvious that NBC cut the budget in half and threatened to take the show off the air after the way season 14 ended. There’s no other logical reason for the producers to make so many dramatic changes. (Also, this new format is a complete joke. Now, you can make it to stage 3 without hitting a single buzzer all year 🤦♂️)
Vance has the potential to seriously be the best Ninja Warrior ever tbh. If he does achieve total victory again, he'll be in a league all his own. I believe he could and maybe even again. Take nothing from Daniel Gil tho. Just like with Geoff Britten in season 7, he still won in the sense that he beat all four stages and he did it before Vance because he went before Vance. I think Daniel could do it all over again too. I'd also like to see them bring back USA vs the world, take away the racing format from stage 2 and have a nostalgic season where they take the best to Japan to compete on Sasuke like in the old days.
Much respect to Vance, he is an awesome ninja. But, if you think he is the goat you really need to go watch some NSC competitions. He's great, but ninjas like Kaden Lebsack, Phil Folsom, Tyler Smith, and a few others are much better all around ninjas. Vance has some amazing explosive power, but when it comes to endurance and overall technical ability, there are definitely other ninjas that are past his level
@@JonathanHolt1988 I understand but I didn't mean he is currently the best Ninja. This is why I was gonna edit my comment to say he has the potential to be the best. Mainly since he's still in his teens and having achieved Total victory, he still has years to do it again and become even better. People like Kaden are just as good too even better since he's been so consistently good, being last man standing two seasons in a row making it to stage 4 twice. But yeah, wasn't trying to say Vance is the best but I see why my comment may seem like Im saying that which is why I was gonna say he "has the potential" Instead
Some of the men I’m rooting for include Joe Moravsky, Lance Pekus, Austin Gray, and Najee Richardson. But, most importantly when it comes to the women, I’m desperately praying that Barclay Stockett can please hit her first buzzer. It just feels mentally painful that she has yet to hit one in competition. Hopefully she can get the buzzer she deserves. 🤞🤞🤞🙏🙏🙏
Man am I psyched to see Vance go at it again! He's my favorite and my cousin's favorite ninja. My cousin also has cerebral palsy but she is fighting because of Vance!
@@sonoftheking1977 Vance Walker won season 15, but they always show spoilers or hints that there’s gonna be a winner, and hopefully Joe is that winner for season 16
@jadavella4623 Yeah I have very good reason to believe he wins. I won't say what it was but Joe said something on his Instagram that I think hints very strongly that he won. It may be not so string evidence to others but to me from what he Saud it only makes sense that he wins this season I'm a lottle tempted to say it on here but I don't think I will cuz I don't want him to get in trouble I don't know if the producers keep track of the comments
I think that ANW should create multiple divisions: Open Division (for all ages), Mid Division (25 and older) to separate out the jr. high, high school and college kids, and a Senior Division (45 or 50 and older) to keep the older Ninjas competitive with each other. At this point in ANW, if you are older than 20, you have a 0.1% chance of winning the title.
things they spoiled with this: Iasiah Thomas will get a qualifying buzzer and quick enough to attempt the mega wall, Kyle Shulze will get a buzzer, Najee Richardson and Meziah Andrade will get a rematch, Najee Richardson will get a buzzer, elijah will be in the run offs which means he fails early, another woman (maybe Lovette) will get a semis buzzer
i hope and pray vance doesn't win, winning twice is one thing but having a back to back win just shows how stagnant the course has gotten over the years. fingers crossed we don't see more than 5 people on the final stage again like we have seen the last 2 seasons. istg if it's something like 6 final stage attempts to piss me off...
I hope so. They were great. I can't believe how far Nacssa got. I don't think anyone ever got that far on their rookie season. Crazy. I am also hoping to see Jonathon BANGe back. He did really well, and hope He will be back. Bang. Lol
Wooooo!

Let’s go, NBC and American Ninja Warrior!
ITS ABOUT TO GO DOWN!
I am literally going to go insane if Vance wins it all again.
My boy Vance Walker. Man, If he gains Total Victory again, I’m gonna go meet him.
He is not your man, he's mine.

Yep me also good for him
Can’t wait to see Josh Salinas and Karson Voiles again. It’s been a while since they’ve competed
Man am I psyched to see Vance go at it again! He's my favorite and my cousin's favorite ninja. My cousin also has cerebral palsy but she is fighting because of Vance!
I know he won last season
I called it
I still think he’s gonna win again
I’m rooting for Joe Moravsky, Najee Richardson or Daniel Gil to win it all this year!
The Weatherman has to deliver someday! And this can’t be the end for The Phoenix!
Najee hopin for a great last year
Joe is gonna wit don't ask me how I know. All ill say is there is already a winner as both season 15 and 16 were filmed at the same time. Joe wins

Can’t wait but I want back ninja jr
I hope Daniel Gil, Kaden Lebsack, or Najee to win it all. I also hope Vance gets it again lol😂

I think elijah failed qualifiers because you can see him finishing the runoffs.
Of the ones that competed on Season 15, which of those are not competing this season?
I think that ANW should create multiple divisions: Open Division (for all ages), Mid Division (25 and older) to separate out the jr. high, high school and college kids, and a Senior Division (45 or 50 and older) to keep the older Ninjas competitive with each other. At this point in ANW, if you are older than 20, you have a 0.1% chance of winning the title.
Nah
Two things that I saw Kyle Suchelz and Isabella Wakeham both hit Their First Buzzers this Season
things they spoiled with this: Iasiah Thomas will get a qualifying buzzer and quick enough to attempt the mega wall, Kyle Shulze will get a buzzer, Najee Richardson and Meziah Andrade will get a rematch, Najee Richardson will get a buzzer, elijah will be in the run offs which means he fails early, another woman (maybe Lovette) will get a semis buzzer
Last season was ninja vs ninja are they doing it again
So excited to see if Vance will win again!!!
Is Daniel Gil competing this season?
I think he is!
IF BRO DOES IT AGAIN I SWEAR IM GONNA FREAK THE FREAK OUT
Do you wanna know who wins cause I can tell you

Please bring back USA vs The World competition
Najee’s in this season ?
They filmed last season and this one at the same time so if anything, this season would be the last flight of the Phoenix

Yes
I know Seasons 15 and 16 were filmed back-to-back, but what was the reason why?
I saw a spoiler that wasn't suppose to be there
