Why do these old matches of WAL seem to have so much better quality than the ones we see these days ??? Right from the ambiance, lighting to the camera angle.
What are you talking about...Dude is one of the well known armwrestlers in world and is known for his insane sidepressure with whom he can take down heavyweights like Matt Mask,Marcio Barboza if i recall right and some others,which dont remember the names exatcly... So to say he is underrated,is just nonsense mate.
I personally love it, it’s in between the lines of Matt Mask’s goofy ass yet intense aggression, and Michael Todd’s teenage girl period episode aggression
@@joshuarenacia694 Yeah, a good example of a 5´11 arm wrestler, IMO, is Frode Haugland. It seems that not only WWE exaggerate heights (NBA also did it until recently, nowadays they have been correcting it).. Don Underwood, Marcio Barboza being billed as 6´0 is also a joke., Ian Carneggie as 6´1 is very doubtful, and I am not really sure about Michael Todd´s 6´3 as well, but I could give more examples.
Love watching Hutchings destroy RVJ. Todd was the best middleweight of all time, so good and so many championships in the WAL that he was forced out of his natural weight class up to super heavyweight. Basically that’s the only reason RVJ has the hammer now, if Hutchings ever drops back down its bye bye RVJ!
RVJ was always so cocky. It was amusing to see Hutchings just completely embarrass him. Pound for pound, I'm not sure anyone is stronger than Hutchings. 2:12, not this time, son.
Way to go Todd my SC cousin, glad you sent little yank back to Boston, are the way they say it Bwaston your back pressure and top roll is the best these days, but you are the side pressure king.
So this was 2 years before Rob learned how to pull in straps. Rematch these days would be nice. Rob is now quite good in straps. A rematch would probably not look like this. Nice to know the context of why matches happened the way they did. Otherwise people walk away with a very outdated or incorrect view of an armwrestler. What does Todd mean about losing the last 5 times in 5 different ways? I know he won in 2015. Beofre that he lost on the left at regionals.. I dunno before that.
Just curious: Why isn't Todd Hutchings the middle weight champion but Rob Vigeant? Like in every match they have Todd wins but somehow Rob is still the champion..
@@ajm7611 But how do you lose your title in the lower class by just moving up a class? Like it doesn't look like he actually got any heavier - he just simply started pulling in the heavy-weights weighing the same as he did in the light-weight class. I think he should still have the title since he is able to defend the title being the same weight as the guys in the light weight class.
@@T12J7 he did put on alot of weight....it makes no sense for him to continue pulling in the middle weight....i think since he left the class...the title would obviously fall to the person who was second in the division which is Rvj...in a way he left undefeated...so rvj got a freebie in a way

Because it was broadcastet by espn probably
Because Steve Kaplan has become a real skinflint. That's why everything is in Chicago this year, where WAL is located.
I know
It seems that the WAL channel has good quality recordings.
@@Tony-ol9ru Do you not think it's also because of complications that arose from the virus?
Todd is so underated... We've seen him pull with freaks and elite heavyweights while giving up so much size

@@LastPrecent I agree. Everyone knows what Toddzilla is about. Everyone in the world of armwrestling knows and respects Todd Hutchings.
His debut on TV was against the GOAT, John Brzenk many years ago and he almost beat him.
@@LastPrecent Devon Larratt too, he had to drop to the king's move twice
The guy was going toe to toe with Brzenk in their primes. Amazing armwrestler
It's annoying to see RVJ's arrogant aggression. Such a pleasure to see Todd dominate him.....love Todd Hutchings.
I personally love it, it’s in between the lines of Matt Mask’s goofy ass yet intense aggression, and Michael Todd’s teenage girl period episode aggression
Guys, you're not watching tennis. It's a strength sport, a wrestling. Being aggressive has a function. It is to play a mind game.
But people love Devon Larratt’s arrogance. Don’t be a hater.
@@toopkarcher It's light hearted witty trash talk. Some of those other guys are too serious.
@@conjurecorpse8209 Bryzenk, Cyplenkov, Levan etc.
4:20 Lol Todd realizes he is short and tries to get taller while the lady tries getting shorter
Its weirdi mean i think he's 5'11
They were just kidding around lol but yea he’s like 5’11” so she’s probably at least 5’9” considering heels
@@BlakeGibbons sometimes i doubt todd is 5"11
But thats what WAL insist on 🤷♂️
Todd is realistically 5'9.5

Todd humble as always, that's nice :)
lovetownsend real great sportsmanship.
Todd...
What an underrated beast!
fairly rated. would love to see him on top8 95kg
Who underrated him lol?
how’s he underrated
He's not underrated
He is considered the best middleweight, so good in fact that he got thrown out of the division into super heavyweight.
If Todd drops his weight down, you're no longer king in this category in WAL. Rip RVJ
You mean is he just returns to his normal weight. For 20 years he's been a 200 lbs guy
Yeah that's Todd's weight class he just went up because there's not competition
Todd is a hydraulic press
Todd.... The hydraulische beast😂
The GOAT (Berzenk), Devon and Hutchings is my favourite trio! Jerry is trying to lick he's way inn, but just can't get through.
Siddesh Kaisukar ok?
@@siddeshkaisukar2818 u disagree tht those 3 are his favorite trio? I didn't know u could do that
"is trying to lick he's way in" lmao killed me
@@wuttehwut if he could put that energy into he's arm. World champ!
No Travis?

Cannot believe how easily RVJ was trashed here. Unreal.
Todd's arm is unfairly strong for middleweight. Way too strong.
Bravado is useless againts Todd
Todd is the man
If you had ever pulled Todd and felt that man , you would understand
@@hoyt_arms I'm going to meet him this weekend in Boise. Hoping to experience some after pulling with him and see for myself. So stoked!
when Todd stares into your soul like that, you should just calmly accept defeat. He is the side pressure king of WAL.
Todd Hutchings,
Incredible arm strength and tight arm muscles.
Genetic power, anatomical power.💪
Devon is the same way.
Devon rlly is that way at all😕
Nah devon got long forearm and bigger hands.
Wow, first time seeing RVJ loosing, todd is so Strong in the hook, omg
He lost, but he didn't loose
Todd has been beating RVJ forever.....
Hook? 😂
did we watch the same match? i never saw a hook lol
Bruno F the strongest man for his body weight lmfaoo
1:15 rvj looks like a little kid who just won a bunch of tickets at mr gattis
and rvj recently claimed he would have chance of beating todd if they pull again LOL
it would be walk in the park for todd
With a winning record against T.H. in the WAL, I'd say he has a great chance if they met again.
And a real crowd
Belmontie Steak what’s their record against each other?
Great match! Do you guys have other matches of rvj vs todd you can post?? If so that would be awsome
Now that Todd is a heavyweight, I sometimes forget how much of a monster he was at middleweight.
Tooooooodd you are awesome when you shake your head I swear it's pure emotions 🤩 not to mention the commentary which makes it even more enjoyable 🥳
all my respect to Mr. Todzilla, i love his humble attitude and hidden strength👍👍
So he fouls and get rewarded for it? I don't understand the rules can someone explain that to me...
Todds sidepress is just unbelievable! And such a nice guy too. Great human being. Always a fan!
Todd is really amazing. He has the power of a super heavyweight in such a small frame. He’s such a great sport as well.
How old is rob?
Todd Hutchings owns the best voice in all the arm wrestling
Is Robs left arm so much smaller than the right ? Or it just looks like that. Right arm is massive
This is why rvj doesn't want to enter the big leagues
when i feel sad i watch this video and it makes me so happy
Awesome
Round 1 2:06
Round 2 3:19
Who is the beautiful blond
It's John 1. then Todd in my book.
Todd used to beat john all day back then
They had great battles back in the day,it wasn't easy either way.
Give us a video of the whole tournament
Put in his place! You don't mess up with the elite Vigeant, you just don't!! #Hutchings #Legend
Where's the match between moiser vs RVJ?
Toddzilla is the only person who gave prime brzenk a hard time in 95kg class.
And almost beat him .
But arsen liliev defeated both of them in that same weight class in SUPERMATCH formats as well what a beast.
Much better at this weight class. The man has heavyweight power. No middle weight can touch him.
Todd's definitely in my top three favorites
Toddzilla is one of favorite pullers!
Guy said he’s not far from Daven and Todd 😂😭
Most satisfying match
A well prepared Todzilla is a nightmare for any heavy weight in the world. RVJ is just a flea in the fur...
😂😂😂Rob looks like a wallace and grommit caricter when he grits his teeth
Zilla is your favourite armwrestler's armwrestler
RVJ was always so cocky. It was amusing to see Hutchings just completely embarrass him. Pound for pound, I'm not sure anyone is stronger than Hutchings.
2:12, not this time, son.
3:07 thank me later
If you’re gonna arm wrestle Todd Hutchings...don’t bring your family.
4:31 Vampire in background
Cant believe WAL canceled..
Hutchings is my favorite armwrestler. but thats a hefty elbow foul at 2:48
thats why they banned todd from middle weight, no competition!
They didnt he went up himself
Where is your bravado Rob Vigeant ? Get Rekt!
1:15 he’s in it to win it!! 😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Way to go Todd my SC cousin, glad you sent little yank back to Boston, are the way they say it Bwaston your back pressure and top roll is the best these days, but you are the side pressure king.
Todds power is in his eyebrows.
Always good to see Todd win..
Crushed!
Total class and respect
Toddzilla is truly one of the greatest.
Love to watch Vigeant get beat like that...LOL
His antics and screaming in opponents faces makes it easy for people to hate him.
Todd is a Gem.
how tf did schoolboy beat todd
RVJ 100% SLAPS HIS WIFE ABOUT 🤣
Wow, tod look like small, but strong power Amazing
Todd bring the mustache
love the look on todds wifes face when she knows hes got it

I love watching videos of RVJ losing.
Toddzilla is the man at his age even now.
Shouldn't there be no strap if the one of the contestants fouls in order to get the slip? In PAL this is just a foul. No strap.
WAL armwrestling is a joke... I want to like it
Wow they use camera in this time to analyze the elbows
Todd is pound for pound the best ever 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Just curious: Why isn't Todd Hutchings the middle weight champion but Rob Vigeant? Like in every match they have Todd wins but somehow Rob is still the champion..
Todd had to move up a weight class so rvj got the title

before the game rob was to cocky right after the first round! humbled!!!
Unique Shores
Why is everyone hating on RVJ?
3:01 I’ve seen pins called that weren’t that close
I hate that you can foul your way to the strap. Should have to be a proper slip imo
love this
Todd is very dangerous with the strapon
Lol that's sounds funny 😂
strap on* xD
@@wusaf250 It supposed to😁
Hell yeah! This was a great match!!
Class act from Todd
Can't wait to see RVJ terminator 5.0 next WAL
That was awesome. Way to go Todd!
Had a better camera crew doy
thats scary power
Out of the strap Rvj was really keeping up with him
The only way you beat Toddzilla is if you're an elite HW
RVJ just happens to be an elite MW
Rob Vigeant Jr cant make a good strap hold...unlucky for him
I'm just here to find the smoking hot blonde @ 1:16
Best eyebrows in the world... and also too strong! 😁
Good for him that's a cool dude I like him
Destroyed Junior here.....now we need to see Todd destroy Pappa....Robert Vigeant Senior.
RVJ reminds me of Ron Bath who would basically be the GOAT if it weren't for John Brzenk being alive
The best thing is to see Rob gets kicked out real good 👍🏻
Todd muito experiente💪
I used to think this refree was niel pick up himself
2:13 Todd literally looks like Rorschach from watchmen
Todd used to always loose to rvj
