Shame for Brian, his dream for #5 is all but over. What a competitor though, I hope tomorrow he can go out and enjoy his last WSM day. He’s done so much for the sport, and deserved a great last dance. ❤
Brian Shaw is an inspiration to so many in the sport and he transcends all sports. What’s more, he’s just a great human being. Win or lose, he went out on his shield. Living legend.
Me hitting refresh on UA-cam waiting for Eddie’s daily event coverage and over 3000 people are already here! Goes to show how we all love Mr Ed’s updates! 💪🏻
That hurts my heart for Brian. Its not over yet but he would have to absolutely dominate the rest of the competition but im not sure if he would have enough points now. I so wanted to see him hit number 5❤
Mate doesnt matter wat brian pulls off... insane legend. I hope for podium. This man has done so much. Not at the top top anymore but a winner notheless in my books!!
It’s unfortunate, but considering Brian could have legitimately had his leg amputated just a few months ago, this has still be one hell of a performance from him. Brian is the man!
I’m hoping they give Brian a special honor at the end for how much he has contributed and grown this sport. The will is strong but sometimes the body won’t listen to your will. It’s a shame but we all have it happen to some degree. Love to Brian a great man great husband/father great athlete and a great example to all of us.
I came here in person to watch Brian compete. And yes, he may not win but still it has been freaking awesome to watch him compete in his last WSM and know he is still top 10 best in the world at his age.🐐 he could probably make the finals all the way up to 45 years old.
Thanks for this coverage @Eddiehallwsm absolute brilliant. Need this on tv such a shame no tv show has picked it up yet. Hope Tom wins this 🔴⚪🔵🏴🇬🇧
I know it's an absolute joke we can't watch it until Christmas time. . And last year I followed all the coverage as we are right now , come Christmas time it's so irrelevant I didn't even get round to watching it. We want live coverage.
It's crazy, both Rogue and the Shaw Classic put WSM to shame and I think both have only been going a few years. WSM is meant to be the premier Strongman competition and hasn't figured out live internet streaming yet.
@@fuzzylogiceire yeah they def need to rework their tv deal with I think Its CBS, if they could work it to have live coverage it'd be so much more exciting and honestly a much bigger thing. Especially as the world of strength sports has grown so much with social media and such it only makes sense to provide live coverage.
I had hoped Brian could win his 5th but now he will be lucky to finish top 3. He still a living legend though one of if not the greatest strongman of all time
Oh hell yeah! I would totally watch that! Such great coverage by Beast, but then having Brian with him as well would be legendary. Especially with their babies 😎
Shame for Brian. I hope he can come out tomorrow and really take in wsm and just enjoy doing what he has loved all those years. I will make sure to enjoy one of the greats compete in the last 3 events. End of an era
Kudos to Brian. He just got over a very serious illness and came over to compete. This shows the love of the sport and he truly is a legend. Would love to see him at least on the podium for one last time. He is an inspiration to many people. 💪💪
Showing a lot of growth here man. Your way to discuss your unhappiness with the call on Pavlo is miles away from what you would have said only a few years ago. Cheers.
Some really good summaries here from Eddie. Along with Big Loz, providing a real service to the community. I will only get to see the event when it is on TV around Christmas, but of course want to know how things went now.
Jaco Schoonwinkel is a beast. Even if he is dropping down in the finals. Super proud of my countryman. Would love to hear you give him a quick interview Eddie!
@@georgef822 Rogue Strongman events, the Arnold Strongman and the Shaw Classic all have live streams. WSM is the most important competition of them all so there's no excuse really.
Man, that performance by Brian on the fingers was heart breaking. He was flying all the way until that last one. Had he won that event, he would have still been in contention.
Poor Brian, was hoping he'd nab his 5th. No doubt that leg injury set him back. And I suppose age is catching up with him like Felix. The fingers result was especially surprising, even with a mistake dropping that 5th I wouldn't have thought he couldn't get it back up. Hopefully he can just take tomorrow in enjoy the atmosphere and make a core memory. Then it's time for a well deserved break to enjoy the spoils of his career and spend time with his family. Would love to see joint coverage by Brian and Eddie next year.
Wow... sounds like an amazing final 👏. Really hoping Tom Stotlmans error in the sheild carry doesn't lose him the title this year 🙏. Sounds like every point counts here. COME ON TOM 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Hope Tom can get atleast 2nd or 3rd on the dumbbell, he can get 1st or 2nd in bus pull, then 1st in stones. He could get his 3rd in a row! Rooting for Tom here in Michigan 💪🏼
I don't think we should feel anything negative about Brian's performance. Even with things not panning out for an overall victory, he's still making history and showing us how impressive he is. 41 years old, making the final after a massive stone-off (11! Big up Rauno), still able to put up numbers competitive with the top ten in the world. Nobody beats time, and everyone learns that eventually, but he has give us almost two decades of excitement. If anything I am looking forward to see him finish out his competition career and move forward with other aspects of the sport and other sports. One end, one beginning.
I'm gutted for Brian., BUT...... He is 41 years old, and he is still one of the top 5-6 strongest men in the world. That itself is a high note to retire on. IMO, he is the greatest
And _this_ is exactly what I lot of people don't get, of the ones I see negatively commenting on his performance. It's insane to think he'd do as good now in his 40s as he did back in his prime. However, even at his age his performance is _well fucking beyond_ the vast majority of humans on this planet. Any men watching this comfortably eating some Sneakers on their couch should STFU or go to the gym and give it a try themselves. I'll defend Brian and any athlete past their primes performing like this. He's still in better shape and more capable than a lot of arrogant kids in their 20s and 30s. Similar situation with Luke Stoltman, absolute machine, same with Mark Felix; to me they are the true inspirations.
Think Brian was pushing to hard and when you do that sometimes you make a couple mistakes that cost you. He is not going out a champion, but will always be remember as one of the all time greats in strong man. Would love to see Brain drop a lot of weight and get healthy, so he can be around for a long time for his family.
Eddy Great commentary about taking ownership of not making the turn properly. That sucks for Pav. It really is harsh but we need these rules for you beasts to compete on an even field.
What a shame for Pavlo, they should have standardized penalties for situations like that. 5-10m or whatever if you're within x feet of the line, not a full 20m run.
Brian knew when his time was over in this sport. He will always be a great athlete and well accomplished. He has done a lot for the sport and look forward to seeing him stay involved in some way other than a competitor. He has dedicated every day of his life to the sport for years. I think he is feeling a little lost now on what to do next. Imagine waking up in the morning and not having to train. Such a shock. I am sure he will still train but not needing to train will be a hard adjustment.
That infection Brian had and his time in hospital must be really affecting his performance. I would have loved to see a Brian Shaw win #5. I almost wish he would come back for one more year healthy and try again but I know how important family is and he is done.
Absolutely gutted for Brian, but make no mistake, he's still a legend and quite possibly the best athlete in the history of strongman. He's past his peak, but he's still this good, that's crazy.
The best is Big Z, if you count titles and recorder. Yet Brian is one of the best and furthering his legend with doing so much to improve this sport for the athletes and the fans.
Damn I really was hoping Brian was gonna come top 5 to 3 on fingles 😢 i wont say hes completely out till after the bus pull but if he doesnt get up in those then his run for 5 is over which i hate saying that.
Its really interesting and big thanks to eddie for his work. In this day and age not live streamed is strange. I wish all the competitors the best. Im sad for pavlo loosing what he did on event 1. As he was going for the europe 's strongest man and WSM in the same year. I think it knocked him only doing 4 reps in the deadlift, but he got it back with all 5 fingers in event 3. A podium you never no but the shield carry has really done him i feel. Rules are rules and pavlo should have known to be fair, having oleksi thare as a fellow ukrainian i hope helps pavlo, this being his 1st WSM final. Oleksi is a great competitor. Cant fault him at anything. Its shaping up for a cracking final day. Oleksi, mitchell, trey, tom, i hope brian has a strong finish and pavlo, shame about the weather but the guys just got on with it, fair play. Again thanks eddie for your coverage right through the qualifiers and this the final. Someone has to pick up the coverage of this. Maybe after brian retires you eddie and brian could work on a way to get it live streamed. Big up the beast. 💪👍.
I love Brian, I was rooting for him, I still am rooting for him and cheering him on, if nothing more to have fun, enjoy the whole event and I cannot sugar coat it, even if he does not want to feel bad for the last couple events. He is one of a kind as a person and not a lot of people can say they are the strongest man in the world, but he is four times! Does NOT matter if he looses, simply because no one has 5x, so he is still top strong man in history! And thanks to Eddie! Shame the event is not streamed, so I have to come to Eddie the Beast! Both of them are living legends!
Is there no way to stream this live? I saw it was coming out on TV in may but they’re missing out big time but not making this a live-streamed event. Way more traction and attention that way
@Jim Look at his entire career and not just in strong man. How many feats of strength and world records he has across the globe. Gotta look at the big picture.
@@warlordmel He still completed all 5, and was only a few seconds behind. Everyone was so close placing makes it sound worse than it is. Also, still in first after 2/2 1st placements in the first events.
@@warlordmelRemember he's brand new, and fingers is way more technical than just outright strength, once he gets the technical side right with practice im sure hes a future wsm!
@@user-lf3wr8rh7r yeah I agree.. I was just saying he has not won everything this time.. But yeah.. He will for sure win WSM one or several times if he aims for it 👍
Hearing Brian not doing as well as I thought he would on his last competing at WSM just makes me feel horrible. I really wanted him to win it all. See what tomorrow brings.
I don't think anyone is as legendary in this sport as Brian Shaw, I don't think anything else needs to be said. Eddie is in my opinion a close second X)
Bummer for Brian. 4 wins out of 15 finals. A lot of training and efforts to not get a few more. What a great competitor and will go on to enjoy many new things. Congrats and 4 is not bad. Be Great
I think that event with the atlas stones took a lot out of Brian just before the final events. More than he is willing to admit. Win or lose, though, he'll always have a lasting legacy in strongman. One of my fav of all time
Dude stop making excuses, who knows what kind of problems the other guys who don't publish everything on youtube have had. Brian is a four time champion and one of the greats of this sport. The reason why he is not winning the last years is because he is no longer the best, it is as simple as that, and this year he is not really even close
Eddie you have been very respectful, honest, and showing a camaraderie with the men to include yourself who are EXTREMEMLY COMPETIVE. Everything is a competition....You have done well narrating. Greatest respect to all men and their life work to be in this event.
tbh, they should've had it be a circle like in ASC instead of turning back and forth for the shield carry. WSM just really needs to step their game up, many people who are there have shared that the experience is terrible despite the money. Bad inperson, no streaming, they need to change or we should stop supporting.
I was at the line and Pavlo just missed the line by a step. The line judge tried to get his attention, but the crowd was very loud and I'm sure the language barrier didn't help.
Brian hasn't been top shelf at loaded carries (shield, Conan's wheel, loaded medley etc) for quite a while now and that's probably going to cost him a podium unfortunately. Still, be a 4x WSM and being in the top 10 strongest men in the world for over 15 years is quite the achievement to say the least. Mitch Hooper looks to be unbeatable.
Shame for Brian, his dream for #5 is all but over. What a competitor though, I hope tomorrow he can go out and enjoy his last WSM day. He’s done so much for the sport, and deserved a great last dance. ❤
Hopefully at least a podium
The sportsmanship was there until the very end

Tom made a mistake in underestimating Hooper & dropping it he should’ve continued I hope it doesn’t bite him in the end especially if it’s by 1 point
Actually that mistake costed him 2 points. Cuz he would have had +1 and his rival -1. I also hope it doesn't bite him in the end :(

There's not a chance he can come back and win now, too much of a gap between him and the top 3.

@@user-lf3wr8rh7r yeah I agree.. I was just saying he has not won everything this time.. But yeah.. He will for sure win WSM one or several times if he aims for it 👍
enjoyed that Edd thanks, get yourself sclipboard mate
Thankyou eddie for great coverage
Brian ☹️
4 wins is AMAZING, Brian! He's such a wonderful guy.
Hearing Brian not doing as well as I thought he would on his last competing at WSM just makes me feel horrible. I really wanted him to win it all. See what tomorrow brings.
I don't think anyone is as legendary in this sport as Brian Shaw, I don't think anything else needs to be said. Eddie is in my opinion a close second X)
As far as it goes for Tom winning that and having such a big gap to hooper is huge. Especially if it stays similar going into the stones
Very nice, I actually like that you put all these events into 1 video but I hated the wait lol
Pavlo crossed his foot over, got the good signal and kept going. But they took it away cause he didn't touch his foot down to break it.
Ally certainly liked The Beast 😂 careful Eddy, Mrs Hall will not be amused 😂
Thanks for the support ❤, I got you something DM me on the above user for more information
Bummer for Brian. 4 wins out of 15 finals. A lot of training and efforts to not get a few more. What a great competitor and will go on to enjoy many new things. Congrats and 4 is not bad. Be Great
thanks for the updates!
I think that event with the atlas stones took a lot out of Brian just before the final events. More than he is willing to admit. Win or lose, though, he'll always have a lasting legacy in strongman. One of my fav of all time
Not to mention that bad leg infection. Taking so many antibiotics can cause a lot of issues as well
Dude stop making excuses, who knows what kind of problems the other guys who don't publish everything on youtube have had.
Brian is a four time champion and one of the greats of this sport.
The reason why he is not winning the last years is because he is no longer the best, it is as simple as that, and this year he is not really even close
The hat on little Brian killed me 🤣🤣
Statistically 4 guys would have to completely biff it for Brian to have a chance to win now 😭
Thank you for the coverage.
Damn it. I woke up and saw this and feel crushed that Brian isn't doing better. I know anything can happen in these competitions, but still.
Eddie you have been very respectful, honest, and showing a camaraderie with the men to include yourself who are EXTREMEMLY COMPETIVE. Everything is a competition....You have done well narrating. Greatest respect to all men and their life work to be in this event.
Its awesome getting to see what is happening!
tbh, they should've had it be a circle like in ASC instead of turning back and forth for the shield carry.
WSM just really needs to step their game up, many people who are there have shared that the experience is terrible despite the money. Bad inperson, no streaming, they need to change or we should stop supporting.
Yeah gutted for Tom on the shield carry, if he could have just gutted it out for another length, there's no way hooper could have matched him.
Thanks for the support ❤, I got you something DM me on the above user for more information..
Awesome again! Thanks for the update.
Congrats to Mitchell Hooper, what a tournament he's had. Smashed it
Good job Eddie

I was at the line and Pavlo just missed the line by a step. The line judge tried to get his attention, but the crowd was very loud and I'm sure the language barrier didn't help.
Brian hasn't been top shelf at loaded carries (shield, Conan's wheel, loaded medley etc) for quite a while now and that's probably going to cost him a podium unfortunately. Still, be a 4x WSM and being in the top 10 strongest men in the world for over 15 years is quite the achievement to say the least.
Mitch Hooper looks to be unbeatable.
