And thats as close as hes ever getting to beating Brian. I can already tell now that brian passed the heart and stamina test (he carried his power through the entire match) brians gonna gain that fluidity and mind body synergy which eddie has more of and i guarantee alot of it is because of how huge, tall and long brian is. It takes longer for guys like him. The movement hasnt clicked for brian yet but it 100% will. 6 months and 6 weeks in a pro sport is way closer than alot of people were saying.
@OriginalTater No brother, but I know what your referring to. Eddie's smack was on-point and non-stop fresh backhands, during the match only. Orlando wasn't trash talk. It was roid rage at all times and cringe af
@yournightmareracing1754 Oh, no. I was just going to ask how the energy in New Jersey compared. I had the privilege of being in Orlando for EvW, so I was trying to see how big of a difference it was.
I mean, Eddie is also a strongman and has a shit ton of power too. Brian just needed to get over this first match. Get the nerves out. Arm wrestling in front of a crowd and people at home…LIVE. He did it, and he might now arm wrestle with far more confidence now that he’s done it and experienced it already. Remember, Brian is the story here, not really Eddie. Brian is what people generally want to see, cause he’s always been dubbed the guy that could potentially take down Levan. So, I could understand if Brian felt an insane amount of pressure to look dominant right out the gate and live up to serious expectations. That could affect anyone mentally. Eddie really had nothing to lose. He wins, people would’ve been shocked. He loses, people would’ve expected it. What Brian did prove however is, even without refined technique, he’s got POWER…and LOADS of it. All he literally has to do is refine his technique and build specific tendon strength/endurance. He does that, he’s got the advantage of 20+ years of strongman training/natural strong genetics to aid him with power output when trying to pin guys. Watch the hell out.
Yeah i think that both nerves and Eddie was in his head there. By that sixth round he looked way better and actually dominated the way that i thought that he was going to do from round one. And actually telling Eddie to fight him. I am surprised that Brian seemed quite fresh even after the match even when he was clamping down so hard on Eddie. If Brian works on his hand and wrist even more and gets more endurance, he will be a problem for many people who wants the strap. They might get tired trying to get free from his hand.
Spot on! Im just glad this wasnt just a "showmatch", but was actually showing some prowess and skill. Looking forward to when their tableIQ grows, dangerous tablemen!
That was the best possible thing for brian. Actually it may have been better than running eddie over. Brian has about 10% the fluidity and thus the ability to access his power. Guys as tall and long as him take longer to achieve that coordination but i was blown away by the fact that hes actually truly built for this. Unlike larry wheels brian is huge and musclebound but his body doesn't build that lactic acid like wheels which enabled brian to remain rock strong through the entire match. Stamina is huge for super matches and brian just has that ability to retain his horsepower throughout a long match and he showed he has the heart needed cause he gutted it out. Lol he really is like a train or juggernaut. I was so upset and thought eddie was gonna legit win cause brians so huge and musclebound that i felt hed gas out for sure but he really convinced me lol. Some how he just has that stamina like a Diesel truck to keep that low end horsepower. The heart and ability to keep his power throughout convinced me cause everything else is guaranteed to come in time with steady training.
@MetalJuggler 😂😂 ya i mist say i was so worried when i realized he wasn't running him over. Knowing hes not conditioned to pulling yet i thought hed gas out being so musclebound lol. He is blessed with crazy stamina and endurance and the ability to retain his horsepower throughout a full championship duration super match which is actually insane. Remember larry wheels after a few rounds? That was a fear of mine but brian checked all the boxes we couldnt know until he was faced with those challenges. Im so fckng happy. I can see it now hes gonna be everything devon and others said which is insane coming from strongman at 40.
I'm a UK fan, but was strongly routing for Brian as I know this is just the start of his journey. I think Brian showed a LOT of anxiety in the early rounds whereas Eddie REALLY played the villian roll well AND sprung early surprises with technique and power. I think eventually Brian learned to trust his strength over technique to get the match won, but the whole thing really did produce the drama, energy and excitement as we just didn't know who was going to win!!
Eddie could have won that match in the straps. He thought that Brian would know some kind of advanced strap trickery from Devon, but if he had gone in there unintimidated by the straps and went for the slip, I believe he would have dominated Brian every round.
Brian was very nervous, he had a lot of pressure and Eddie was calm because he had nothing to lose haha, what Brian should improve is to stop looking at the referee at the beginning and control his grip so that his rival does not take advantage of the grip at the beginning
Dude brian just proved he has the other half of whats necessary to be a monster. He showed insane stamina through a long hard match he didn't gas at all which is actually insane being so huge and musclebound. I was extremely nervous that hed gas if he couldn't run eddie over and he just stayed diesel strong throughout and showed unbreakable will and heart to gut it out. That coordination and synergy is 100% coming and he has everything else mentally and physically. I had doubts before but i have none whatsoever now.
There's one thing we know FOR SURE about Eddie Hall, proven multiple times over. When he commits to doing something he usually performs better than expected and isn't scared to put himself out there and pit his body on the line to achieve something. If he has good coaching then he can be really dangerous in any strength based thing
One of the best arm wrestling matches I’ve seen, I actually got nervous from how intense it was 😂 Eddie could have legitimately won it if they went straight to the strap, he was extremely impressive for a few weeks training.
The fact is 6 months or 6 weeks is the same thing. It came down to physicality, heart and stamina because neither guy has the experience or time on the table to really maneuver as armwrestlers yet.
@@anderswallin3883 The problem without straps is Eddie wasn't slipping and Brian kept climbing his hand where Eddie couldn't even get a proper grip to access his power but still kept holding on. In strap Eddie was connected and had better technique and enough strength to easily beat Brian, his ego and mocking of strap cost him the match but I don't think he cares enough. So he still showed that he got way further than Brian in 5 weeks than Brian in 6 months
So in my opinion people made a bigger deal about brian having 6 months training vs eddie having 6 weeks. Fact is neither had enough time to make the match about technicality and fundamentals more so than raw natural strength etc. one thing ill say is in the back of my head i wasn't sure if Brian would be able to retain his immense power after a few hard rounds because hes not conditioned to it and hes just an enormous musclebound human. IMHO this was the best possible outcome short of dominating for Brian. He showed excellent stamina, heart and mental toughness and carried his horsepower throughout the long hard match. Im now convinced Brian has the 100% necessary x factor along with the obvious natural physical talent. In a few years hes gonna be an absolute animal. Like i said i had doubts that if he didn't run over eddie that he may gas etc but he remained rock strong through a hard long match!
I am actually also surprised that he maintaned a lot of his power all 6 rounds. I was afraid that his hadn was goin to get tired after all that holding on. But that holding on might be one of his greatest weapons in the future. Just look at Vitaly, he is also holding on a lot and that is working great for him.
You need to be able to maintain some insane output in strongman not too surprising to me that these guys have strength endurance. I mean Eddie had his genes tested and apparently had more genes associated with endurance than strength.
@@halfnattyboomer354 ya but its just that neither are conditioned to armwrestling yet but eddie has a build more typical to not gas as quickly were brian looks like hed gas being that huge and musclebound.
No it was all the preassure and Eddie's trash talk that got to him. Devon was correct in teaching Brian to toproll because that is where his main weapon will be for a long time until he gets comfortable and gets that tendon, joint and bone strength up. Eddie's tactic of getting the crowd to chant for Brian actually worked in his favor because that probably made Brian even more nervous.
Eddies personality seemed more suited for the sport. Personally I would not accept being talked to like that and then act like best friends afterwords. To me it should not be part of the sport, but unfortunately it is. I don't consider it sportmanship to accept that kind of behavior without consequences.
Well levan said he thiught eddie would win dude. He said eddie was faking being bad lol. Brian was to worried about technique and instead of using some natural tools.
Eddie has alot more potential and that's just facts 6 weeks training, And he's class with his shit talk 😂 eddie needed to just let go and go to the strap he looked alot better in the strap
@ratherbefishing4225 I get that but eddie was also holding on, I believe his game plan was outside the straps but honestly he could of slipped from the go, 6 weeks training and made it a match, a match he could of won btw
I feel as though everybody stating Eddie made this match much closer than it should've been is ignoring that Eddie looked like he was redlining pretty much every time he stood up to the table. Granted, it could be seen as a weakness if Brian isn't fully able to tap into the power that he should in order to win a match, but if you saw how much energy Eddie was putting into the match versus how much energy Brian was putting into the match, Brian for sure seemed like he had so much more left in the tank whereas Eddie looked like he was pretty gassed in comparison. I think this is representative of the idea that Brian needs to hone his killer intent and aggression a bit more, or otherwise it definitely wouldn't have been nearly as close.
Peak potential? Not really. Brian's frame is too good and he will get the movement/technique down in time. However, I will agree that Eddie has caught on much quicker than Brian and has a better natural feel for the sport.
If Eddie wasn’t talking so much during the match I believe he could’ve won. He was strong in the strap he should’ve slipped instead of talking Brian out of it.
All that talking is actually what made this match so great. He got into Brian's head and built up all that stress that Brian was feeling before the match. Had he not done that, i think that Brian would have been more dominant.
Agree! I’d say he was already in Brian’s head before the match started. The talk In between rounds was great. I believe it was round two where he was telling Brian not to slip, it was fairly even, if he was locked in he could’ve taken that round, that’s all I’m saying. Then round three was the strap, and we all know he took that one, he could’ve been up 3-0. But he was more focused on telling Brian not to slip instead of focusing on the match itself.
If we are lucky Eddie may like the fact that he can fight and trash talk without getting punched in the face. Of course that only works with the right opponents.
I like Eddie but I'm rooting for him to get stomped in his MMA match so he'll give that CTE sport up and just focus on armwrestling where he has some talent.
Brian wasn't as good as everyone thought he would be. Eddie on the other hand was fantastic! If Eddie took the sport seriously, he could really make some waves.
UA-cam algorithm boosting comment 💪 ... it was a MUCH better match than i thought it would be, i want to see them BOTH to keep training for AW. www.coresports.world/ (EvW & KOTT PPV) www.youtube.com/@SHAWSTRENGTH (Brian Shaw) www.youtube.com/@eddiehallwsm (Eddie Hall)
Not surprising at all. Brian's weakness in strongman showed here - he over thought it. Brian should have won more WSM titles, but he just wouldn't grip and rip the way Eddie does. Brian is the more talented athlete, so he won (just like his 4 WSM titles), but he could do so much more with his physical genetic gifts.
I took the whole thing with a pinch of salt. I didn’t like that eddy and Brian was so late on the card, I thought it’s a little insulting to all the pullers who went before. It seemed like a bit of a circus in the middle of an arm wrestling event. Especially after the match for the 20 min of saying thank you and generic interviews. I learnt that shit talkers don’t like shit talkers either. I felt a real animosity between Devon and Eddy, more so from eddy. He does not like Devon. All the videos leading up to the match if eddy is close to Devon there’s a sense of unease. The match itself was very enjoyable and I see how people not familiar with arm wrestling would have enjoyed it. So from that point it’s a good thing.
The main card and co main card is normally sorted by what gets the most views not who's best. I wouldn't be surprised if the eddie vs brian match got more views than levan vs jerry
Why was Eddie activly putting himself at a disadvantedge by avoiding the strap? Did Neil just forget to tell him that it is an advantedge for the shorter armwrestler?
I thought this was one of the more weaker cards to date. That’s not hate, I absolutely love the promotion and I’ve bought every PPV to date. But the Eddie and brain thing was more of a spectacle. I mean it almost felt staged. eVW has had way better cards in the past. For anyone saying this is the best card to date has lost their minds. I do want brain and Eddie to stay in the sport, but it just seemed like a bit of a circus when their match started. Paul linns match wasn’t close, Matt mask match wasn’t close, levan match wasn’t close, polka match wasn’t close, Cory match wasn’t really close, the girls had the best match. And overall it took 5 plus hours to get thru the show
Everyone knows Eddie hall is stronger than Brian Shaw. Just Compare their best lifts. Eddie hall 500 deadlift, Shaw 460. Eddie 300 benchpress, Shaw 260 or so. Eddie shoulder press 210kg, Brian Shaw less. Also Eddie has a massive hand. This match result wasn’t a surprise to me.
I don’t know about the match to be honest. Didn’t like the disrespect from Eddie, way too trashy. And Brians technique was worse than some people look at their first armwreslting practice! Love the guy, but he will never be elite, and Eddie actually has potential but trash talk like that takes away from the sportsmanship and respect that armwreslting used to have between opponents
@danviridian that is not true. He has arm wrestling videos that are two years old. He also mentioned training with Neil in a video 8 months ago. They're on youtube right now go look
@app6984 HERE IS EDDIE BEING COACHED 2 YEARS AGO ua-cam.com/users/shortstevLv8-jUT0?si=dG1vq1M9HvqiWJ4o Maybe he didn't do dedicated sessions but he's been arm wrestling and learning techniques for years

@@mikmiyaz8182 No Its Not, I Can Tell You Don't Have Any Idea of What You Are Saying..😂😂😂😂😂
I was 6 rows back in a packed house. The energy in the room for that match was insane. Eddie's banter made Devon sound polite lol!
Did you happen to go to EvW in Orlando?
@OriginalTater No brother, but I know what your referring to. Eddie's smack was on-point and non-stop fresh backhands, during the match only.

Like bro thinks strongman is mainstream
yeah there was no need for that
Yes
Yeah all my hype died, i was sitting there full of adrenaline having to watch something that felt like a TED talk.
I disagree. They made big announcements for 5 minutes. The sport is becoming more professional.
I'm not sure Brian was scared to go in there. It's probably just all Devons top roll training screwing him up.

Rushed here to hear the Bowen opinion. Ryan's opinion of people moving up in the sport is the most important.
Ryan is the goat
I REALLY miss you arm wrestling shirts. Are you ever planning on selling them again?

Come on blue balls Ryan. You are the one to take down Levan!
USA! USA! USA!!!
Brian wasn't as good as everyone thought he would be. Eddie on the other hand was fantastic! If Eddie took the sport seriously, he could really make some waves.

Brian looked a bit stressed. With his power and 2-3 years of experience Brian would be really good.
💯 👏👏
It was so good I thought it was scripted or something on the low.
I'm from Ottawa so I've been interested in this; I didn't think Eddie would win any rounds tbh

Well done Eddie I thought Ed 0 Brian 6
Lets not call arm wrestling a "combat sport"
Eddie could have won that match in the straps.
Why was Eddie activly putting himself at a disadvantedge by avoiding the strap? Did Neil just forget to tell him that it is an advantedge for the shorter armwrestler?
First 😢
Ryan Ginger Bowen is blocking people on facebook and instagram hahahhaha
I thought this was one of the more weaker cards to date. That’s not hate, I absolutely love the promotion and I’ve bought every PPV to date. But the Eddie and brain thing was more of a spectacle. I mean it almost felt staged. eVW has had way better cards in the past. For anyone saying this is the best card to date has lost their minds.
I do want brain and Eddie to stay in the sport, but it just seemed like a bit of a circus when their match started. Paul linns match wasn’t close, Matt mask match wasn’t close, levan match wasn’t close, polka match wasn’t close, Cory match wasn’t really close, the girls had the best match. And overall it took 5 plus hours to get thru the show
if Eddie slipped he would of won in the strap, he just shut up a lot of people
Everyone knows Eddie hall is stronger than Brian Shaw. Just Compare their best lifts. Eddie hall 500 deadlift, Shaw 460. Eddie 300 benchpress, Shaw 260 or so. Eddie shoulder press 210kg, Brian Shaw less. Also Eddie has a massive hand. This match result wasn’t a surprise to me.
I think he log pressed over 220kg and was insanely close to getting the world record. He did that with a broken foot
Arm Wrestling a combat sport? How about Thumb Wars?
First
You're the first, and the worst.
@endwigast5212 and what are you basing that opinion on?🤷🏻♂️
only Ryan boween can defeat lefun nsigisvili
People are completely incorrect about thinking 6 months and 6 weeks is some significant thing lol. Brian is coming.
I don’t know about the match to be honest. Didn’t like the disrespect from Eddie, way too trashy. And Brians technique was worse than some people look at their first armwreslting practice! Love the guy, but he will never be elite, and Eddie actually has potential but trash talk like that takes away from the sportsmanship and respect that armwreslting used to have between opponents
Maybe one day if you train hard enough, when you grow up and are a big boy you too can beat one of these 2 guys! lol xD
Are You Joking?? Ryan Would Run Thought Both of Them.......
@@kanethesevenfootmonster868 No I am not and no he wouldn't... lmao he would lose to both.
@@LimitedStatelol they wouldn't win 1 round against Ryan
@@LimitedState Oh, You Are Such a Casual.....🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@kanethesevenfootmonster868 Haha The fact that you are saying that to me shows that you must be new here lmao haha xD
Did you get married again mate ? Congratulations.
That's probably his mum bro
Did he got divorced from his first wife??? I didn't even realize, don't see any pics of her on his insta anymore
It was rigged someone told eddie to not get strap
Eddie trained so much longer than he admitted
He trained for 5 weeks. He's also in the middle of a fight camp
@danviridian that is not true. He has arm wrestling videos that are two years old. He also mentioned training with Neil in a video 8 months ago. They're on youtube right now go look
@@Williamxmr That was a one and done thing. He only trained in those for videos.
@app6984 HERE IS EDDIE BEING COACHED 2 YEARS AGO
ua-cam.com/users/shortstevLv8-jUT0?si=dG1vq1M9HvqiWJ4o
Maybe he didn't do dedicated sessions but he's been arm wrestling and learning techniques for years
You gay
Eddie is more experienced than people think!! He even had a match against lalas in 2019!!!
Hahaha he had one 'match' for fun with no training years ago
